Not to mention even by that standard, owning your house outright and having 10x its value in wealth is not "financial anxiety"

Am I misremembering it as progman.ini or are those different files?

Typically people just upvote listings with salaries and they work their way to the top.

This is always misreported. It's true that we can't distinguish between two adjacent rgb values (in most cases, on most displays...), which is where this comes from. But as you say, displays only cover a portion of the space.

The easiest example I usually give is with blacks-- computer monitors just can't reproduce the absence of light well.

But the cost to his ego for not meeting a milestone which receives even more publicity because of the big price tag is a big motivator (or at least one could argue)

So even if the utility of the funds isn't consequential, a package like this might be one if the few ways to further incentivize a CEO like Musk.

But shifts in the market aren't independent random events. You can definitely find examples of dramatic, real shifts in valuation but in the vast majority of cases business value is created over time. That rate of growth might be slightly faster or slightly slower, but you can be certain it's within reasonable bounds. So when speculation or scare drives the price higher or lower, you can be sure it will find its way back.

Don't know about the knock-offs. But Ecovacs makes a line of roomba competitors that match up as well or better and cost 75% as much.

Probably not as expensive, but still much more expensive than it need be.

We've got a bunch of perverse incentives where it's cheaper for the patient to choose the option that's more expensive for the payer. Straightening those out would be a small first step, but complexities of the system and incumbent powers have made it pretty difficult.

Hey Arjun,

Congrats on your launch. You might want to disclose your interest in the product here, though.

Not all Americans agree, but your laws only apply to your country.

Spoilers: he doesn't actually use the output of the machine to power his site. Not that he couldn't...

This pops up on HN or reddit every 3 or 4 years. I want to say he made it in early 2000s? I was in the cube next to him at the time... my only brush with greatness.

Heh, good to hear Google feels this pain, too. I work on the chromium codebase, and a 1 hour clean compile on a macbook pro seems optimistic.

Luckily ninja and ccache do a good job of meaning you only ever do that once (and rsync solved that problem for us). Not that a 20-second compile for a one line change is something I should be content with, but it's certainly workable.

You have examples? Every startup I've been with has been many years to profitability and the common names follow that pattern as well.

Some get traction, or maybe growth early on, but actual startups don't seem to "make money in a short amount of time"

Is Uber making profits in the US market?
