Correct- and yet you're still wrong.

The mean isn't a meaningless statistic in the case of age.

To note- they didn't list nationalities of the names. Nor did they group the names together by mission. It was an alphabetical list.

I could tell FB was getting super fat when most of their PMs were coming from business/finance/consulting- especially reality labs.

So much of the tech is still in development I have no idea what FB is doing bringing business people in to PM an incredibly young and technically challenging space if they have no idea what is going on in the tech.

>The two agencies had been separately pursuing NTP projects. DARPA started DRACO with three Phase 1 awards in April 2021 to teams led by Blue Origin, General Atomics and Lockheed Martin to work on preliminary designs of reactors and spacecraft.

You hear nothing out of them and the social media consensus is that they're doing nothing but then you see their name pop up in stuff like this.

NYC should deport these pricks to Oklahoma.

We need a solid crash like in the 90s to early 2000s.

Tech quite frankly needs to do some gatekeeping and come back to tech underpinning the work- not disruption or changing the status quo. Have the tech first and then have it go where it may.

SV culturally is swamped with people who want to be "in tech" but with none of the deep technical background or interest. Just the money and glamour.

That sounds as close to a real world warp core as I've heard.

I know statistically it was bad luck but man- for it to happen so soon after launch. Just a statistical middle finger.

> Middle management is really destroying a lot of company reputations

I think this is inevitable for any large enough popular enough company.

SOOOOO many people in management consulting/finance who picked up some coding because "that's where the money is"

There is a non trivial amount of "influencer VCs" in social media.

Google/Meta will have to sort out their cultural cruft fast otherwise they'll go the way of IBM.

I was surprised that GCP is losing 600mil/quarter. Either they have crazy scaling happening or something terrible is happening cost wise.

mid is 300-600k so in NYC- plausible. For top top- I've seen some really absurd numbers from the algorithmic trading companies.

first thing I thought when I read this was "wow another 30%?"

I don't even care about the cost- what I envy is that the city is compact enough to be bikeable, roads are safe enough to be bikeable, and the population isn't so shitty as to ruin these electric bikes.
