Generally good advice but some major investment decisions may not fit the fact pattern. The results can vary substantially, for example:

- Buying real estate before or after the 2008 real estate crash

- YOLO'ing on a specific stock/company/crypto before or after a bull run

I presume their advice becomes more solid the more you trade and the more diversified the investment is.

Went surfing in the Pacific Ocean this morning and it was freezing. Theory was the current swell was swirling the deeper colder water. So many variations such as swell frequency/power could throw these results off.

Similar issue with billing post the Salesforce acquisition. We’re on a Enterprise Heroku plan but the billing could only be handled within a Salesforce account (which we don’t have). Autopay disconnected and our app went offline for 3 hours until we could confirm payment over the phone. Billing went from self serve to having to call in to provide a credit card over the phone.

Does this mean usernames and notes are not encrypted in the same way?

I purchased the OneWheel XR in 2016 and think it’s an engineering marvel. It has on occasion glitched while riding which has led to some falls. Speed and torque have degraded but it has outlasted my last 3 laptops combined. Anytime you get on a skateboard you are taking a risk.

I also use Bitcoin as a currency (via Coinbase). I love the reactions. It’s not commonly accepted in my area so I’m only using it for haircuts and holiday bonuses, but would gladly buy more with it. Excited about Etherium’s DApps but having trouble creating viable ones in my industry (insurance). BTC’s transaction cost is worrisome (who is spending $6 in transactions fees for small purchases). Monero has some serious advantages over BTC (privacy and transaction costs).

Do hacker groups have positive track records of not sharing their stolen data? It’s ironic to pay and then rely on trusting them.

Well our conclusion is to work on security for a week and then submit. I didn’t say anything about not having security/compliance rather about completing another security questionnaire.

For a customer we absolutely would. We aren’t charging and vice-versa as integrating is value added for both parties. They could double our usage so we’ll work on security for a week to get a passing score and then submit the questionnaire. Thx

Yes. Typically there’s a business associate HIPAA agreement that outlines use. SOC 2’s start at $35,000 with a month of an engineering time and 99.9% of insurance agencies don’t have one. Getting it done is the long term plan.

We send a few thousand life insurance applicants per year to Quest. Quest is the 800 pound gorilla for insurance exam lab work. It’s unfortunate, but alternatives are likely less secure and we’ll continue using Quest.

I traded in an 8 year old POS and bought the model 3 yesterday. Elon and his team are headed in the right direction regardless of this drama.

I’d love to see them make a video series like startup school out of this.

Finally! My 2 and 3 year old girls stumble on these when watching baby videos.

Have this tough conversation with the founder. You may provide insight (maybe the mission needs tweaking). It sounds like a lose/lose for you and the company now. See if the conversation can create a win/win or look for another job.
