Quotable Quotes:
Andrew Roberts: [On Napoleon] No
aspect of his command was too small to
escape notice.
Jason Calacanis: The world has
trillions of dollars sitting in bonds,
cash, stocks, and real estate, which is
all really dead money. It sits there
and grows slowly and safely, taking no
risk and not changing the world at all.
Wouldnt it be more interesting if we
put that money to work on crazy
experiments like the next Tesla,
Google, Uber, Cafe X, or SpaceX?

It's true, Pokmon Go has been well known for its scaling
problems, but this was a planned event, shouldn't it have
been handled better? No doubt. Still, a concentration of
20,000 players in a single shard, in such a small "kill
zone" like a park, is a challenge. Should they have
brought in Cell on Wheels, use high density WiFi, maybe
put up microwave links to increase the backhaul? Yep,
that seems reasonable. EM spectrum is a terrible thing to
waste.

Quotable Quotes:
Jessica Flack: I believe that science sits at
the intersection of these three things the
data, the discussions and the math. It is that
triangulation thats what science is. And
true understanding, if there is such a thing,
comes only when we can do the translation
between these three ways of representing
the world.

Quotable Quotes:
Vladimir Putin: We must take into account the
plans and directions of development of the
armed forces of other countries Our
responses must be based on intellectual
superiority, they will be asymmetric, and less
expensive.
@swardley: What most fail to realise is that
the Chinese corporate corpus has devoured
western business thinking and gone beyond
it.
@discostu105: I am a 10X developer.
Everything I do takes ten times as long as I
thought.
DINKDINK: You grossly underestimate the
hashing capacity of the bitcoin network. The
hashing capacity, at time of posting, is
approximately 5,000,000,000
Gigahashes/second[1]. Spot measurement of
the hashing capacity of an EC2 instance is
0.4 Gigahashes/second[2]. You would need
12 BILLION EC2 instances to 51% attack the
bitcoin network.[3] Using EC2 to attack the
network is impractical and inefficient.

Machiavelli's Guide to PaaS: Keep your
friends close, and your competitors hosted.
Paul Buchheit: I wrote the the first version of
Gmail in a day!
@herminghaus: If you dont care about
latency, ship a 20ft intermodal container full
of 32GB micro-SD cards across the globe.
Its a terabyte per second.

industry is advertising war-in-a-can

achieve competence.

Stacy Mitchell: Amazon sells more clothing,
electronics, toys, and books than any other
company. Last year, Amazon captured nearly
$1 of every $2 Americans spent online. As
recently as 2015, most people looking to buy
something online started at a search engine.
Today, a majority go straight to Amazon.

have a few powerful features that AWS and
