Granted I haven't played the steam version in awhile, I didn't have a ton of issues with it, and the non-steam version was just not for me. Additionally, I believe they hired another dev who was cleaning up a lot of things, so maybe better now?

I wonder if shows like The Office, Parks and Rec, Seinfeld, etc end up becoming the "classic rock" of streaming.

No, Snowflake runs it's own storage and compute (on either AWS, GCP, or Azure depending on what you pick).

I recently joined Mattermost, and am currently in the midst of getting us switched over from using Segment to RudderStack.

The RudderStack team has been super responsive and it's great to be able to support another open-source based business.

The biggest selling point for us is being able to maintain total control of our data with us having barely having to do more than change an endpoint. It also allows us to use one place to send all our analytics data across our various platforms and it just works.

I've been keeping track of Google Fi since it was released.

I'm hoping the new Nexus 5 (both LG and Huawei versions) is compatible with Google Fi, although I did call the Fi support number (and talked to a real human) and she said they haven't heard anything about support for the Nexus 5.

Here's hoping.

I've recently been making the switch to Norman and use vim. I initially tried to remap a bunch of keys (especially hjkl) but you end up going down a path of remapping more than you want.

So I've just started getting used to using the same keybindings just in a different spot. So far it's not too bad. Like anything, you get used to it.

I use this quite a bit. Also displays named captures with values which is nice.

I think the key point that this article is missing, and maybe it's just assumed by the author, is that when you're sending out the life rafts in an uncharted direction you get enough user feedback to either work the feature into your product or not.

If you were trading salary for equity and the startup fails you're out that. You're also out time which you could have been advancing at a different company.

However, because working at a startup is gambling, you have to treat it as such. If you can't live with losing out on salary you could've made at another job, you shouldn't work at a startup.

I used the 1.x versions of Selenium pretty heavily at my last job and the JavaScript selectors could get pretty hairy (even with jQuery).

Does anyone with experience with Selenium 2.0 know how much of a boost WebDriver gives for performance? Especially doing tests of a SPA with a lot of AJAX could get hairy and slow.

I think it's a point to consider but I think the main point is that these "business" people showed passion and had delivered on that passion by creating mockups, logos and so forth.
