Honestly, there’s nothing really that screams dishonesty than this tweet. Saying that your outcomes are stronger than ever when every tech company was laying off and headcount was frozen just doesn’t pass the smell test.
There's probably a good argument to ignore rule breaking and little deceptive marketing if the student outcomes are good but it looks like in-aggregate that they weren't and that students were better off taking a loan and attending Oregon State's Post Bac in CS or Hack Reactor.
And if you really believe you can succeed as an autodidact with minimal mentorship from previous batches of students, 42 schools[1] offer that for free.
It's shameful YC was still shilling Lambda one year ago[2] even though there's been a mountain of evidence about its deceptive practices for many years.
There's no reasonable argument in favor of deceptive marketing. This idea that we should tolerate bullshit from people trying to make money needs to go away.
If the outcomes are good for the students, there won't be an issue with making them be straightforward about it.
It doesn't matter if your infra is in another region, because there will almost always be transitive dependencies on us-east-1. IAM is deployed in us-east-1 and there will always be a transitive dependency on us-east-1
I have never had a production issue in other regions due to a us-east-1 outage. The worst that ever happened was I had to wait to update a Cloudfront distribution because the control plane (based in us-east-1) was down, but the existing configuration continued working fine throughout.
I don't know what the architecture of IAM looks like, but somehow it's never suffered a global outage.
As much as I hate to admit it, I'll probably still pay it because it's just so much superior to other cable offerings(recording, multiple devices). And there's no other way to watch live sports.
I have YouTube TV now and was pleasantly impressed with the software on Comcast Xfinity when I saw it recently.
Meanwhile YouTube TV on the Apple TV is a shit show, with non-native controls that lag, search that barely works and no integration with system services so searching for a channel by voice doesn’t work. And it still doesn’t free me from having to pay for Fox News!
Unless the software stops being the moral equivalent of electron on the TV, I’ll be moving back to cable when I next move house.
Conveniently too. Last year I went to a friend's house to watch a football game and he refuses to pay for YouTube TV or any sports streaming because 'theres free streams on the internet'.
He had to get up every 5 minutes to refresh Chrome on his laptop he had connected to the TV or find a new stream because they get taken down so quickly.
70$ a month is well worth ever dealing with that shit
I've been streaming sports illegally almost 20 years now. I'm fine dealing with the ad-infested websites and constant refreshing of streams taken down for once a month events like UFC fights.
But for every day? I'll gladly pay the $1-2 a day to never deal with that.
IPTV providers are about as close as you can get to a perfect sports experience (TV/Movies have had a superior piracy experience for well on a decade+ now) and illegal IPTV providers leave a /lot/ to be desired. I don't use them since I don't care for sports but I've seen others use them and they are way better than the random "mirror 1, mirror 2, mirror 3..." sports piracy sites. However the quality is still iffy and you have to jump through hoops as providers are taken offline.
At the end of the day if I wanted to watch sports I'd just throw enough money at the problem to watch them legally. When it comes to TV/Movies, on the other hand, you cannot pay for the best experience (legally) which is really sad.
Our TV bill just went up and I'm debating exploring YT TV.
What I want is the main Sports Networks (FS1, FS2, ESPN, ESPN2), my Regional Sports Network (but that's a Bally channel now -- and that's kind of a bit of a mess at the moment), and MLB TV (the cable channel, not their own MLB service).
I also want "DVR" for everything, and I want to be able to skip the ads (ideally with a +30s button).
I typically watch my games delayed so I can skip the ads, or even just plain "later". We DVR everything else.
YT TV DVR is best in class in my experience. You can set it to record every NCAA men's basketball game that ever airs if you want, or just your team etc.
Overall, the complaints about job placement rates seem valid. It's hard not to read all the material that's been published and make the not determination that they're being dishonest by claiming a 75 percent job placement rate.
Being a young man who's balding might seem depressing, but I can certainly think of something far more depressing. Propecia's labeling was recently updated to say that erectile dysfunction may be permanent, even if you stop taking the drug.
Just shave it off. Bald heads have actually been shown to be a positive status indicator, probably because it takes serious confidence to pre-emptively shave off all your hair. Besides, I've always thought bald heads look way better than a head with patches of hair on it.
Marc Andreesen for example has a suboptimal head structure for baldness, however I'd venture to say straggles of the remaining hair would look worse.
Shaved head > BLding head IMO
Sure. I agree that shaving is better than the desperate attempt to cling to the last remaining follicles look.
However, shaving your head does not necessarily mean you're going to look "good", aka Jason Statham mode. A lot of people just look like eggs or aliens when they shave their heads.
