Glad I'm not the only one who thinks that...

suh_dude··on Kraken lays off 30% of staff

Interesting, why would they do this?

suh_dude··on Ask HN: How should I take advantage of unlimited PTO?

That sounds pretty great, have never heard of another company doing something like that.

Seems to be a camera with a phone app

suh_dude··on Ask HN: What is the best autobiography you have read?

Vibrations: A Memoir David Amram

American musician who worked with people like Kerouac, Miles Davis, Leonard Bernstein, Odetta, etc. Wrote 100s of compositions, operas, jazz pieces.

suh_dude··on Uber S-1

No way are we going to be in autonomous vehicles that soon. All of the companies besides Waymo are just doing fancy lane assist and calling it self-driving. And Waymo only works in the most ideal conditions

suh_dude··on Ask HN: How do you ask your employer to help you develop?

Ive been thinking a lot about this too. Im a consultant and booked on one project after another with no downtime so any professional development is done on my own time and my own dime. Would love to some training or build in time to spend on projects.

suh_dude··on Ask HN: Which VPN?

Yep, this.

suh_dude··on Ask HN: What do you wear to work?

Your boss is a doofus. If there really is no dress code then just wear what you feel comfortable in. If someone else comments you could reply with something about how "this makes me feel comfortable and puts me in the mindset to work".

suh_dude··on The accidental HFT firm

Id recommend "Dark Pools" and "The Quants" both by Scott Patterson.

"Flash Boys" is a fun read since its written by Michael Lewis(good storyteller) but Ive heard have claim it isnt very accurate.
