The cost of this acquisition will likely just get passed down to consumers by increasing the already ridiculous delivery and service fees even further... The only reason why I ever use DD is because DashPass is included in the CSR. Otherwise you pay $10 of extra fees for a $12 burrito.

At this valuation this is a very risky investment because the current price already accounts for future growth, so there is very little margin for safety or meaningful upside left. The sole purpose of this IPO is for early investors and employees to cash out. I wouldn't touch this stock with a 10 foot pole.

You also use your phone that requires cobalt mined by child labor, wear clothes made by slave labor in countries like Vietnam and Bangladesh etc, so what's your point? The world is not black and white.

You use more than half of those on a daily basis just by using any piece of modern electronics or connecting to the internet.

React, React Native, GraphQL, LLama, PyTorch, RocksDB, Cassandra, folly, Hack, HHVM, OCP, Presto, btrfs, cgroupsv2/PSI, eBPF, zstd, roughly 12% of all Linux kernel contributions are signed off by Meta + Meta is the 5th biggest contributor to Linux kernel.

Also a ton of other projects that did not originally come out of Meta but get a ton of patches and support/funding: MySQL, Memcached, Hadoop, LLVM, Systemd, Rust, Python etc.

Perhaps research a bit more before you make these ignorant comments.

Any change that hurts WITCH (Wipro, Infosys, TCS, Cognizant, HCL) is a good change. If they just plain banned those five, there probably wouldn't even be a lottery.

Tech aside (covered well by other commenters), the presentation itself was incredibly dry. Such a stark difference in presenting style here compared to, for example, Apple's or Google's keynotes. They should really put more effort into it.

Loaded it. Typed "help". Asked me for $5. Closed the app.

I am lucky enough to have worked on all three of these systems (TAO, ZippyDB, and currently MySQL) so can shed some light here.

Both MySQL and ZippyDB are datastores that use RocksDB under the hood, in a slightly different way and with different querying capabilities exposed to the end user. ZippyDB uses it exclusively, but MySQL uses both the traditional InnoDB and RocksDB (MyRocks). TAO is in memory graph database, layer above both of these, and doesn't persist anything by itself - it talks to the database layer (MyRocks).

I took a look and don't see any strong reasons not to use and support the official app. Tweetbot was so successful because it was competing against the official client which was (and still is) truly horrible, but I don't see that in this case Ivory has many advantages over the official client.

Most of the "new" features are just eye candy, but usability is still very poor and way behind what they had 10 years ago. You can't do even the most trivial things, like sorting stocks in your watch-list by market value or P/E ratio, comparing two stocks side by side etc.

There is also `colordiff` which works both as a standalone diff tool, but also as a colorizer filter for other diff tools. For example:

  diff -u a.txt b.txt | colordiff
