Number Stuff:
36%: of the world touches a Facebook app every
month, 2 years over a life time
$84.4: average yearly Facebook ad revenue per
user in North America
1%: performers raked in 60% of all concert-ticket
revenue world-wide in 2017—more than double
their share in 1982
...
Quotable Stuff:
@mjpt777: APIs to IO need to be asynchronous
and support batching otherwise the latency of calls
dominate throughput and latency profile under
burst conditions. Languages need to evolve to
better support asynchronous interfaces and have
state machine support, not try to paper over the
obvious issues with synchronous APIs. Not
everyone needs high performance but the blatant
waste and energy consumption of our industry
cannot continue.
Guido van Rosuum: I did not enjoy at all when the
central developers were sending me hints on
Twitter questioning my authority and the wisdom of
my decisions, instead of telling me in my face and
having an honest debate about things.
Isobel Cockerell: A kind of WeChat code had
developed through emoji: A half-fallen rose meant
someone had been arrested. A dark moon, they
had gone to the camps. A sun emoji—“I am alive.”
A flower—“I have been released.”
@scottsantens: Australian company shifts to 4-day
week with every Weds off and no decrease in pay.
Result? 46% more revenue, a tripling of profits, and
happier employees taking fewer sick days. Also
Thurs are now much more productive. We work too
much.

Number Stuff:
$1 trillion: Microsoft is the most valuable company
in the world (for now)
20%: global enterprises will have deployed
serverless computing technologies by 2020
390 million: paid Apple subscriptions, revenue from
the services business climbed from $9.9 billion to
$11.5 billion, services now account for “one-third” of
the company’s gross profits
1011: CubeStat missions
$326 billion: USA farm expenses in 2017
61%: increase in average cyber attack losses from
$229,000 last year to $369,000 this, a figure
exceeding $700,000 for large firms versus just
$162,000 in 2018.
$550: can yield 20x profit on the sale of
compromised login credentials
Quotable Stuff:
Robert Lightfoot~ Protecting against risk and being
safe are not the same thing. Risk is just simply a
calculation of likelihood and consequence. Would
we have ever launched Apollo in the environment
we’re in today? Would Buzz and Neil have been
able to go to the moon in the risk posture we live in
today? Would we have launched the first shuttle
with a crew? We must move from risk management
to risk leadership. From a risk management
perspective, the safest place to be is on the
ground. From a risk leadership perspective, I
believe that’s the worst place this nation can be.
Paul Kunert: In dollar terms, Jeff Bezos's cloud
services wing grew 41 per cent year on year to
$7.6bn, figures from Canalys show. Microsoft was
up 75 per cent to $3.4bn and Google grew a
whopping 83 per cent to $2.3bn.

puzzle will require 35 years of continuous
᯲- LOL"
ᯱ
computation to solve" 2019 "ᯰ

Quotable Quotes:
Claude Shannon: Then there’s the idea of
dissatisfaction. By this I don’t mean a
pessimistic dissatisfaction of the world — we
don’t like the way things are — I mean a
constructive dissatisfaction. The idea could
be expressed in the words, This is OK, but I
think things could be done better. I think there
is a neater way to do this. I think things could
be improved a little. In other words, there is
continually a slight irritation when things don’t
look quite right; and I think that dissatisfaction
in present days is a key driving force in good
scientists.
Albert Kao: A feature of modular structure is
that there’s always information loss, but the
effect of that information loss on accuracy
depends on the environment. Surprisingly, in
complex environments, the information loss
even helps accuracy in a lot of situations.
Eduards Sizovs: Be the company that says:
we are hiring mentoring.
???: There Is No Shortage of Talent. There's
a Shortage of Suckers.
You know the drill.

Quotable Quotes:
melodysheep: The universe has only just
begun.
@matthew_d_green: I spent the year before
Heartbleed visiting important people in DC
trying to convince them OpenSSL was a
mess, and they should fund it as “critical
infrastructure”. They laughed and told me
that term referred to dams and power plants.
Tim Cook: No
@asymco: Among 8,000 U.S. high school
students surveyed, 83% have an iPhone, 9%
Android. 86% plan their next phone to be an
iPhone. -Piper Jaffray Taking Stock With
Teens survey
@dialtone: Do you know S3 throughput is
higher than a SATA 3 controller and almost
as much as PCIe 4.0 2x? Depending on the
usecase, mounting S3 as a filesystem, not
only makes sense, but it saves a LOT of
money (and time) as well. You just need to
use it a special kind of filesystem.
Steven Melendez: By 2022, automation will
displace about 75 million jobs worldwide. On
the other hand, they will create an estimated
133 million new jobs. The predictions come
from extrapolating from surveys sent to more
than 300 major employers around the world.
So many more quotes...
