Any idea on the size of the employee option pool given 22.3% is owned by "other shareholders", with 22,263 employees and 3000+ engineers?


A must read if you don't want to make mistakes, it's given to all new Square employees.


Hey steve,

Using clippy is not as straightforward as you put it because clippy and the latest nightly often are broken together. There would be much less hassle if it was a stable crate. Also no worries of backwards compatibility between stable/nightly.

To be clear, clippy can't ever be a true "stable" crate. What clippy does is rely on a whole ton of compiler internals so that it does not have to reimplement the compiler. These internals change, because the rust compiler is under active development.

The plan for "stable" clippy is to bundle it with releases, precompiled. It will still use the internal APIs, but from a user's perspective they just have to `rustup component add clippy` and it will magically work.


Ballpark ETA on being able to install a precompiled clippy with rustup like that?


It's "phase 2" of https://internals.rust-lang.org/t/rust-ci-release-infrastruc...

We've got a good idea of how it will happen, but the infra stuff has to happen first -- nobody wants to complicate the existing infra if it's going to go away.

I don't have a clear timeline on that. A few months I guess.

On clippy's side we don't need many changes to make this work.


`rustup component add clippy`

Whoa, that's the first I've heard about this. Very exciting plans!


That's totally fair; I've gotten lucky, I think, with the mis-matches. As mentioned, we certainly want to ship a "known good" one to address exactly what you're talking about, but until then, it's not _super_ onerous to use, IMHO.


I think it's a gray area where voting should decide. Articles/blog posts/etc can be pure advertisements as well.

Why are you obsessing over the origin of the quote? There is nothing to defend here.


This quote is not very useful as an indicator of the future. Not everything that starts ignored will be laughed at. Not everything that is laughed at will be fought. Not everything that is fought will win. It's not even the majority of things that follow that path.


You are taking the quote too literally.

Tesla Model 3


What are these EV clones that are fighting the Model S? Also, the Model 3 hasn't won anything yet, except a lot of refundable preorders alongside a soon to be expiring tax credit.


'Make a habit' != mandating

We share all our documents (financials, cap table, etc) with all our employees, making sure an employee cannot be social engineered is key.

Plus, to be honest, using 1Password is easier then remembering passwords.


> Use the 1Password 'trial' (it doesn't seem to expire)

How do you defend this?


I'll buy it for any of my employees who it does expire for (where they can't access their passwords).


I mean if you aren't trialing the software, why aren't you paying for it? You've even put 'trial' in quotes, so we know you aren't really trialing it. You're simply using it.

Are you in compliance with the 1Password licence to use it long term for business without paying for it? (I don't know the answer to that)


You are right, we will start purchasing 1Password for our employees after the 30 day period.

Our company is 3 months old, so most our employees are still in the trial period.

We purchased the licenses for any employees who completed the trial.

We let our employees choose between 1Password, Last Pass, etc, they have choice (which is why they need to trial it).


If you can't beat them, join them.

I forwarded this problem to Mapbox, thanks for letting me know!
