I was really excited to open this thinking it would be a thought experiment on how to restart all of Google's services if they ever went down all at the same time. Was mildly disappointed to find that this was about…
According to Matt Levine's "Money Stuff" publication -- it was 60-80 cents on the dollar: Hedge funds are offering to buy startups’ deposits stranded at Silicon Valley Bank for as little as 60 cents on the dollar,…
"Basically a layer which allows you to map your business problems onto a relational database + workflow thing" How is this different from any B2B SaaS product?

~10% general computing improvement is great, but I wasn't impressed by the progress made with Intel's new GT2 graphics architecture. An incremental improvement to HD 4000 doesn't replace mid-range mobile graphics cards…
Do you have any evidence to back this up?
This is lazy journalism. Will people stop posting what Steve Wozniak thinks about everything? Just because he's Steve Wozniak doesn't make him a foremost expert on everything related to technology. Does this quote add…
A tragedy, and I wonder if being in space had anything to do with the development of her cancer. Astronauts must be bombarded by levels of radiation that people on Earth are not exposed to on a daily basis.
