	HMS Upstart HMS ''Upstart'' (P65) was a Royal Navy U-class submarine built by Vickers-Armstrong. So far she has been the only ship of the Royal Navy to bear the name ''Upstart''. After the war, she was loaned to the Greek Navy and renamed ''Amfitriti''. Career Wartime ''Upstart'' spent most of her wartime career operating off the south coast of France, where she sank the French fishing vessels ''Grotte de Bethlehem'' and ''Torpille'', the German auxiliary minelayer ''Niedersachsen'' (the former French ''Guyane'') and the German merchant ''Tolentino'' (the former French ''Saumur''). She also launched failed attacks against the French merchant ''Medjerda'' and the Italian merchant ''Pascoli''.

	Upstart (company) Upstart is an AI lending platform that partners with banks and credit unions to provide consumer loans using non-traditional variables, such as education and employment, to predict creditworthiness. The founding team includes Dave Girouard, former President of Enterprise Google, Paul Gu, a Thiel Fellow, and Anna Counselman, former Manager of Global Enterprise Customer Programs and Gmail Consumer Operations at Google. Upstart first launched in April 2012 with an Income Share Agreement (ISA) product, which enabled individuals to raise money by contracting to share a percent of their future income. In May 2014, Upstart pivoted away from this product and toward the personal loan marketplace. With this pivot, Upstart began offering a traditional 3-year loan, and has since expanded to offer a 5-year loan product as well. Upstart developed an income and default prediction model to determine creditworthiness of a potential borrower. This means that in addition to traditional underwri ...

	Upstart (software) Upstart was an event-based replacement for the traditional init daemon—the method by which several Unix-like computer operating systems perform tasks when the computer is started. It was written by Scott James Remnant, a former employee of Canonical Ltd. In 2014, Upstart was placed in maintenance mode, and other init daemons, such as systemd, were recommended in place of Upstart. Ubuntu moved away from Upstart with the release of version 15.04 (''Vivid Vervet'') in favor of migrating to systemd. As of January 2022, there have been no updates released for Upstart since September 2014. Rationale The traditional init process was originally only responsible for bringing the computer into a normal running state after power-on, or gracefully shutting down services prior to shutdown. As a result, the design is strictly synchronous, blocking future tasks until the current one has completed. Its tasks must also be defined in advance, as they are limited to this prep or cleanup func ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu]
