Wonder where the 5% clean areas are?


I believe it's a population based percentage. However, there is a global map on page 15:

Maybe he'll help make Java more performant on AWS Lambda and cut down the initial startup times for the JVM!


Regardless of all the negative feedback this comment has received, this is one of the reasons I find Hacker News to be totally cool.

Where else do you get an engineer who wrote the code commenting on the article in question?


Is there any possibility in the future users will be able to search ALL messages from a channel/private message, ever? It seems like Slack search cuts off after a certain point, and doesn't index into archived messages.


The free version includes search up to 10k of your team's most recent messages. The standard version includes unlimited searchable message archives. https://tinyspeck.slack.com/pricing/slack-for-teams


This reminds me of a lot of Stack Overflow's commitment to private offices, which I read awhile back. They too have an interesting take on the anti-open office idea. https://stackoverflow.blog/2015/01/why-we-still-believe-in-p...


Etsy. I don't work there, but I've interviewed there twice and know lots of contacts who work there, and it's a great engineering culture.

The overwhelming majority of the company are engineers, and they have a large commitment to OSS, which was one of the initial selling points for me. Not to mention, Rasmus Lerdorf works there, and several of their engineers contribute to HHVM.


I'm a former Etsy employee. The engineering culture is awesome there, but I feel the need to point out that the majority of the company are not engineers. Even when I joined in 2013, we were about half the company. By the time I left (June 2016), we were around 1/4 or so.


I built something to similar this, using a Raspberry Pi, reverse SSH tunnels, Phillips Hue, Nest, and a range of sensors.

Part of the project was an admin panel, to oversee the status/health of all the systems, as well as a manual control panel. My biggest concern was security. Granted, it was an internal network in my house, but if anyone got access to it, they had camera feeds, and practically full control of my house.

I wonder how someone like Zuck protects this system, given all the nefarious people who I'm sure would love access to it.


FB as a company has probably invested in network security for him / other high level people. He already has physical armed security so it wouldn't be surprising that they would protect him / his family digitally to prevent hacking which could grow roots into his privileged access to FB's resources.


So did we. Rasberry pi, spotify, facial recognition (using cmu open face) and a couple of other components...http://blog.algorithmia.com/hey-zuck-we-built-your-facial-re...


I agree, on Thai airways, the food is excellent. Singapore airlines too, I've had incredible meals (not just for airline food).


Agreed, I've burned through 4 pairs of Jaybird X2's (easily the worst headphones I have ever used) from what I believe to be damage caused by sweat (despite being "sweat proof"). Fortunately, their CS has replaced them each time, but frustrating never the less. I too was hoping the Airpods would be a solution.
