Love it! I like the bash implementation for bare minimum on the dependencies

"pw" a simple perl script that prints a random password. default length is 16 chars but if I do "pw 8" it will return an 8 char password
I use it all the time, at least a few times a week.
I wrote it because the secure passwords generated by iOS and various password managers are overkill for most purposes and extremely hard to type out by hand to an airgapped destination
there are some TDCS treatments for tinnitus that seem to work https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/30359234/
But I'm pretty sure they are only available in the EU for now, not the USA
I wrote the code that puts headers on USA federal court documents (PDFs). I see them all the time in the real world and still get a kick out of them
Goldman Banker Nick Giovanni to Join Instacart as CFO Ahead of IPO https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-01-07/goldman-b...
This year Instacart hired Goldman Sachs banker Nick Giovanni to be their CFO. He led multiple companies through a direct listing IPO, all from the banker side.
Interesting, right?
I'm surprised the Reuters article didn't mention this. I guess everyone is busy.
tradier.com API is free if you keep an account there. I do this and it is handy for many things.
I've used pushover for this as well. Nice perk: on iOS at least you can easily define a custom image and sound to go along with your message. This is FUN to use.
My company spent precious developer hours this week 'fixing' old intranet websites that recently started giving Chrome 'insecure' warnings on internal links. HTTP is definitely not a risk in this scenario. And PG's website is not a risk either.
Google's war on http is misguided, dumb, and wasteful.
One way to do so via a public company is to invest in: TriplePoint Venture Growth BDC Corp. (TPVG)
They make late stage investments in private companies. Read a few of their quarterly reports to get an idea of their recent deals.
There is no reliable way I know of to cherry-pick individual companies like AirBnB unless you are an accredited investor.

Many private companies are staying private for longer, with an average time from launch to IPO creeping up toward 10 years or more. Most unaccredited investors are missing all of those substantial early gains.
Does LTSE have any plans to help speed the path to IPO and let more unaccredited investors participate in early growth and success?
To clarify on the FundersClub recommendation: don't do individual YC company deals, do the rollup funds like this:
Accelerate FC XIX: Y Combinator W18 Fund targeting investments in ~10-15 top startups in the Y Combinator Winter 2018 Batch.
With a few hundred thousand to invest I'd probably do a 3-way split between:
https://www.thesyndicate.com/ - back Jason's next 50 deals at 2K each
Put 25K each into the next 4 YCombinator deals at https://fundersclub.com/
Put 50K in the next 2 quarters at AngelList Access Funds https://angel.co/v/access-fund
If you do any of this give me a follow at @baccredited and let me know how it goes. I just followed you as well.
Are there any specific banks that I should avoid?
I like to avoid all of the bailout banks. These guys invested customer money irresponsibly and had to be rescued by the federal government: https://money.cnn.com/news/specials/storysupplement/bankbail...
I ended up using schwab.com and have been happy with them so far. (Until recently I was with etrade, but they were bought out by Morgan Stanley.)
Wow - would love an RSS feed feature to subscribe to a search
Hey - I like the telegram choice for this. I know you are getting some questions about it but I prefer it actually. Not everything needs to be on the web, indexed, and archived forever.

I have access to analytics for a big government site. 11% of all traffic in March 2020 was IE11.
Chamath Palihapitiya spent an hour answering all your questions. Worth a listen!

I'd go with web server logfiles plus https://goaccess.io/
Start with the simplest thing that could possibly work and expand to other solutions only if needed.
I've had luck with https://goaccess.io/
example: goaccess logfile.log -o report.html --log-format=COMBINED
There is a product here, and I'm a happy customer: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/captio-email-yourself-with-1-t...
I use it daily.
Cool! Have you thought about doing RAM prices too?
any decent online bachelors programs for fields like CS
Are you looking for a degree or a job?
If looking for a job, take a look at: https://lambdaschool.com/
For me it isn't worth it. Keep a paper copy of the important stuff, like your life insurance policy. Show your spouse where you put it.
If you have a decent chunk of life insurance it will make chasing down the other stuff much less important.
Good plan. I'll retire at 50. Already active in VC and may get back in the startup game after I quit working for others.
Are you on twitter?
Save 25X your annual spending and you can retire. If you invest to earn 7%/yr (on avg), you can withdraw 4% forever.
Read the book The Simple Path to Wealth, or the basics in this blog post.

Late 40s here. I'm going to retire by 50. Then I get to work on my own stuff. I can't wait!
Anyone who saves 20% of their income can retire after 29 work years.
Save 50% and it is 15 years.
I don't have a suggestion for how to achieve your goals here but please share if you find what you are seeking. I need the same thing. A couple years ago I looked at firebase and some other tools to do what you are trying, and none of the solutions available could do what I needed.
