The most underrated skill to learn as an engineer is how to document. Fuck, someone please teach me how to write good documentation. Seriously, if there's any recommendations, I'd seriously pay for a course (like probably a lot of money, maybe 1k for a course if it guaranteed that I could write good docs.)
Highly recommend a journalism class at local community college.
tl:dr; "I want to be a postdoc"
Do you mean blockchain or technology inspired by blockchain? Lots of cool merkle tree stuff (trillion, certificate transparency); also several international shipping supply chains use blockchain for chain-of-custody (txns are irrevocable cosigned transfer of custody with no trusted overseer). I would love to see criminal evidence and deeds of ownership move onto a similar framework.
I expect digital ID will also benifit from an auditable, immutable log (e.g. sovrin)
Hi cs-szazz. I remember being in your situation; it's frustrating because you can't Google for answers. Here is advice I was given when in a similar situation.
- Find the other people at the company in your situation (size of grant, type of options). Share your learnings with each other. Consider getting professional advice, the Bay is full of attorneys and CPAs for whom this is a familiar situation.
- If you're at a unicorn, you probably have co-workers who are veterans of other unicorns and have been through this before. Ask them for advice (or an introduction to their source of professional advice)
- As a group, consider asking your board to arrange a limited second market sale to cover exercise costs and taxes. Many institutional investors are happy to buy a little extra stock, especially if it helps with keeping senior staff happy and focused on the right things.
- If you're going to be doing anything involving stock without board approval (like trying to build some kind off house-of-cards, pseudo-legal collateral package for a loan shark) you really need to hire an attorney.
- if you only have options, you might not be a shareholder. Your rights and access to information might be different once you've exercised a share.
- You can't extend the 90 day exercise window on ISOs, that's a federal law thing. The company can convert to NSOs to extend the window, but the setup for that conversion is complicated and expensive.

obligatory thread naming good open-source password entropy checkers. I'll start.
(for a single filer) at $100k income, this lowers the effective state income tax to 0.8%
at $200k income, this lowers the effective state income tax rate to 4.4%
New Hampshire is literally next door and has no income tax.
this works fine over http instead of https. is there a way to fix the link?
It has to do a lot with reliability and cost. A smart car has a lot of expensive sensors and an expected life of a few years with regular maintenance. There's also a huge market opportunity around smart cars. Those cabinets can last decades, in all conditions, with minimal upkeep. Adding sensors decreases reliability and increases maintenance cost. There isn't usually an appetite to put traffic signal upgrades or extra maintenance headcount in city budgets for non-critical infrastructure upgrades, so the financial incentives to innovate are more limited as well.
My SO and I have three MBPs between us. Two have had keyboard failures (one the "8" key, the other the space bar). Both took about a week for Apple to repair.
This website is unreadable on iPad, the font size changes every time I scroll.
Commonmark is a wonderful and well defined markdown standard (ie the one GitHub uses)
I taught myself 18.100a from the book and website when I took it because class was too early in the morning and found them sufficient to make up for the missed lectures. Wonderful resources. Highly recommmend.
I did this by running a sikuliX script. Took about 5 minutes a day for a week to iron out all corner cases it got stuck on.

this is actually fixed with selective sync in dropbox pro
Going straight to the spec is really great for HTML/CSS. Also worth looking at the CSS snapshot from w3 https://www.w3.org/TR/css-2017/
