Power outlets so you can charge your laptop/phone.

Had this once in Osaka, definitely had food poisoning the next few days.

I mostly blame myself for thinking it would be a good idea. It did taste pretty good though.

JobMine Plus?

It looks like JobMine Plus is a project that started after I graduated. From what I gather, the university cancelled their own JobMine replacement project around that time and finally relented in letting students take a shot at improving things.

Watched this YouTube video on them a year back:

Searching on Google Maps, it looks like the "HQ" is located inside Toronto-Dominion Centre, which is an office complex downtown, nothing too exciting to look at.

I'm sure if they had their own facade to show off they'd have a photo in the article.

That p90 number (equivalent to 204k USD) looks like some typical SDE2 TCs in Redmond:

Or less than a junior L3 in the bay area at google.

And what does that salary get you in the bay area? Living in a tiny apartment with a homeless guy outside. No thanks.

Toronto and Vancouver has basically the equivalent priced real estate as the Bay Area.

If there's a large earthquake, what would happen to SF?

- old buildings that do not comply with seismic code because codes don't apply retroactively

- new buildings built on the liquefaction zone

- Millenium tower already has defects even without earthquakes

- some buildings are already sinking

Everything is going to get rekt. SF is a huge house of cards about to collapse.

But they will probably have it better than the guys at Hayward, CA... a town built on top of the Hayward fault line. Why would you do that?

That's not to mention the worsening crime rates, even at the more suburban places. Oh, and the traffic, having nowhere to park your car, having to spend 1 hour in traffic to move 1 mile at peak hours, and seeing the city collapse each time a major conference takes place. And public transport is full of hallucination-haunted junkies that get randomly triggered.

Sounds like exactly the right place to live, form a family and spend all my money. Or maybe not.

It lets you afford a million+ dollar house after a few years?

Yeah sure. And then you will get mugged on your own driveway* because crime rates do not care about how expensive your home is.

Speaking as an iOS developer, we use PDF files to represent our vector icon assets in the app.

I thought it was a bit odd of a choice on the platform vs SVG which seems more popular (and which the Android devs on our team use), but CoreGraphics using it internally ties the whole picture together.

The better analogy on the YouTube side is the chronological subscribed channels feed: https://www.youtube.com/feed/subscriptions

Coincidentally, AWS has a video streaming service already: https://aws.amazon.com/ivs/

Disclaimer: I work at Twitch, an Amazon subsidiary whose tech it's based off of.

Interesting. Does Amazon Prime Video use this service?

There's already an Elo project for sanctioned events at the Grand Prix level and above: http://www.mtgeloproject.net/

It uses the public pairings and results that were published each round for events all the way back to the 90s. Unfortunately, there are less competitive MTG events these days, so most peoples' ratings stop in early 2020, but that's another topic altogether.
