Been using it for several months post-Gmail. I wouldn't expect all the bells and whistles of Gmail, but you get a solid, reliable, fast, and private email option. The mobile app is solid (though I _really_ wish conversation threading was better). And as @diehunde mentioned, you get @pm.me addresses (up to about 5 alternate email addresses). I don't regret my purchase and would buy again

There seem to be ample comments discussing the "viability" of crypto trading/tokens, but if I'm Etrade, all I care about are the commissions - to hell with the underlying tech or what it can/can't do. Not even just for BTC, ETH, EOS, etc now, but for the coins to come in the future. Sure, they can have prolonged periods of low volume (even manipulated volume), but when there's a frenzy (e.g., 2016-2018), I imagine that the profit potential on commissions would do wonders for "shareholder value". Combine that with Etrade's namebrand (as mentioned in other comments) experience, and infrastructure, and you've got a gang of traders that would gladly do away with the sketchy/lesser-known exchanges for Etrade (my opinion).

As a PM customer of almost a year, I'd definitely say they should focus more efforts on the UI/UX as opposed to advancing the crypto for now. What's the point of having the world's most cryptologically advanced, unusable inbox. Specifically conversation threading/nesting. I don't expect everyone to be as streamlined as say a Gmail, but basic "1 conversation - 1 email" in the inbox would be nice for starters.

I would suggest reading through and practicing some of the snippets as you go along (however, I would _not_ suggest doing the little projects, often they can get you sidetracked). By snippets I mean things like `foo.chars().iter()` and such to understand exactly what's going on underneath the hood when you use (for example) a `.chars()` or a `.iter()`.

But the book will only go so far. To take things further (especially with Rust), I suggest "reading code". There's plenty of it on Github. And I would definitely add that Rust devs in particular are usually better than most at commenting code (which helps).

Yea “good grades” people / “bad grades” (as I read it, and was intended) is clearly not meant as a play on intelligence

Wow thank you for this concise explanation

I always found it interesting that "hating open office spaces" is one of those sort of biased-HN things, similar to general dislike/distrust of popular social media platforms. Virtually every parent comment on the thread is along the lines of "I don't like open offices", which is obviously fine, seeing as how to each their own. However, I for one LOVE open offices. The fact that I can see what's going on, feel the vibe of the office, distract myself for a bit should I so choose to do so. Or even if I want to put my headphones in and turn the music all the way up, I have the option and I really enjoy it. To me, the open style makes the office feel like more of a community, as opposed to "an office" (similar to cubicles, offices, and mini-cubicles) and I absolutely enjoy that.

Side note: I'd be curious to see responses for office preference (open, or not open) distributed by age.
