Uhh we are talking about ask.com / iac and the same idiots who made the ask tollbar; Hey they also claimed they did yoga in their data center too . Let’s talk about that


That doesn't have much to do with the subject of the article. Why stay salty about a tool bar and yoga 20+ years later?


Gnn once told me , about how he had to work on plan9 . It’s an interesting topic . It’s good to see how other people think about this cs topic and see if you can borrow some ideas .


This looks like a straight up pyramid scheme. It’s a website/ newsletter about small startups for sale . I feel like this would stupidly easy to pump full of garbage for sale .


For the former DataPipe employee’s at RackSpace: “KetanKetan” .


That’s what I was thinking when I read your post . “Clearly written by someone with no real world experience trying to gaslight users “


Good one. Care to elaborate on your thoughts though? I work in security, I see problems caused by people trying to be edgy in architecture design all the time. You don’t need k8s, or bsd, or rust if you’re a pizza shop website.


That bullshit company should have died when they realized Illumos was a shit show.


Which is the BS company? Pluribus or Arista?


Pluribus. Their switches crashed all the time . The best thing they did was port FreeBSD bhyve to illumos .


Hi long time jersey city resident here . There never was an abandoned or old “ Anheuser-Busch factory in Jersey City” . AB has operated a massive brewery/factory in Newark 10mins away . In terms of abandoned factories most of not all of the jersey city abandoned property like this would have been retrofitted into something else years ago . Newark on the other hand has loads of abandoned stuff . Also it was home to Balentine’s , Pabst and at one point a sclitz plant .


There is an “it’s always sunny in Philadelphia “ episode that captures this exactly . Actually it’s the last season when they go to Ireland ; When Mac decides he is gay and how he needs to explain to the gang his identity , and how the gang doesn’t actually care either way what he is , gay, straight , Irish , Dutch .


Even better is the entire bathroom episode about it: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt6362488/


Yes , there are a lot of quirks in the chrome book platform . I have a 2015 hp 11e and nothing works on it but chromeos, win7 and gallium. No Ubuntu , FreeBSD , NetBSD or red hat .


Hahah ; actually living here and no ; it’s not cheep .


Living in NY certainly isn't cheap but two six figure earners can more than live comfortably. Hell, if your household income is greater than like 75k then you're pretty much fine -- not living the high life but no real financial worry.


From a foreigner point of view, it seems completely ridiculous that we are even debating if a couple with 1M per year can afford or not living in NYC.


This is not 1M+ per year, this is 100k+ per year. Six figures = 100k+


> two six figure earners

Since we are talking about Amazon highly paid engineers, could be 2x 200-500k.


Sure, but I'm assuming the worst case for six figures. If your household income is $200k then even in NY you can easily afford a nice house or high-end condo/apt in a good part of town, while living in comfort with no financial worry.


Amazon salary cap is 160k.



I think they recently increased salary cap to $180k specifically for Bay Area. It varies by location.


The link I posted shows Amazon salaries above $400k.
