No... :-)

> Google Search

Unusable nowadays and monopoly that should be broken....

> Google’s open-source MapReduce paper that shaped the big data industry.

Experienced ETL practitioners laughed at that paper, knowing that was how DataStage and other Grid ETL platforms always worked. Imagine...spliting the data across nodes, working on it in parallel and then bringing it together...Oh my if was not for Google nobody would have thought about it...

> Then came containerization, then Google’s Kubernetes.

A platform full of security bugs, that they created because they lost the cloud wars:

Kubernetes: The Documentary [PART 1] - https://youtu.be/BE77h7dmoQU?t=122

https://k8s.af/

They forgot about multitenancy, and 11 years after, they still dont have it....

> entire cloud computing industry seems to be based on Kubernetes, and our entire team develops on top of it.

Your team needs to go out more....


Lets see how you perform after you leave Congress, then we can talk :-)

Anyone lopsided in tech is seeing the same gains with the same risks. You basically compared Pelosi to more than half of professionals in California.

Labeling him as an early investor would be misleading unless further undocumented investments exist.

He purchased Facebook shares via options in 2020, Facebook founding was 2004 and IPO 2012.There is no credible record of Paul Pelosi being listed among named early private investors.

You either believe him and her, are better investors than Goldman Sachs, or Renaissance Technologies or you believe this is corruption.


Anyone lopsided in tech made the same returns. How odd would that be for tech investor in San Francisco?

You worked for Google? And you cant see the difference between being lucky of joining the one of 2,000 startups that got lucky....Remember the founders wanted to sell Google for $1Million then dropped the price top 750K...And holding without selling, versus an active options trader like Pelosi husband, who is active all the time and seems to be better than 99% of the traders out there?

One is passive luck, the other is consistent, suspicions, permanent positive performance....


> Paul Pelosi, the husband of Nancy Pelosi, is a retired businessman who founded and managed a real estate and venture capital investment firm called Financial Leasing Services, Inc.. He is also an investor with a portfolio that includes significant holdings in technology companies like Facebook, Google, and Apple.

Oh, wow, a guy who specializes in investing in FAANGs makes the same amount of money on investments as workers at FAANGs who don't diversify? Oh, and it must be insider trading to get such returns on big companies that many other people make a lot of money on? And you are going to convince me that Nancy Pelosi saw that the current AI boom/bubble was going to happen before anyone else because of her role in congress?

I get it, you hate Democrats. But stop making sh*t up when its obvious your stories are bunk.


You really dont get it...when your returns are so unusual that whole professional options platforms exist to track your performance, something stinks.

Your probably also believe Hillary Clinton is a pro futures trader... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hillary_Clinton_cattle_futures...

"...One analysis performed by Auburn University and published in the Journal of Economics and Finance claimed to find that the odds of a return as large as Clinton obtained during the period in question were about one in 31 trillion..."


A little piece of history...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Israeli_support_for_Hamas

"...Use of Hamas to undermine the Palestinian Authority..."

"...In an interview with Israeli journalist, Dan Margalit in December 2012, Netanyahu told Margalit that it was important to keep Hamas strong, as a counterweight to the Palestinian Authority in the West Bank. Netanyahu also added that having two strong rivals, this would lessen pressure on him to negotiate towards a Palestinian state..."




Imagine being paid in rubles to pretend you are from Ohio...

130k nodes...cute...but can Google conquer the ultimate software engineering challenge they warn you about in CS school? A functional online signup flow?

The could team up with Microsoft, because their signup flow is fine but the login flow is badly broken.

For what? Access to the control plane API?

In general... Try to sign up for their AI services...

> Every major city that tries free transit at scale will eventually snap back to it, because it is the only configuration that does not implode under feedback loops.

Less Jevons Paradox and more Theory of Constraints...

Five million people are not going to descend on Iowa City because buses are free. Luxembourg has full free public transport from buses to trains, with no feedback loops. Same in Tallinn, Estonia capital where is free for residents.
