Why do people always use art as an example? Couldn't you do it with something like cars (where the car doesn't start until you prove you have the NFT)? I'm completely unfamiliar the with the space

I like your comment because it actually contains some other email best practices. 1) Keep it really really short. 2) Use bullet points (numbers are better than bullets)

I thought I was the only one who did this (the pacing and practicing conversations). I am surprised at how often it pays off

I think some people are counting each individual interview conversation as a "round". For example two screening calls then an onsite with four conversations would be six "rounds"

I think this is the type of writing that I like the least. Someone trying to come up with another smart theory on Why Things Are Bad and Why Other People Are Mediocre (with the implication that he is not), with no supporting evidence and ve

It really depends. In my experience, after about 2 years in a specific role you will start to develop expertise in your specific organization and tech stack rather than generalist capabilities. There are good reasons to stay after that (you

I think there's a significant amount of work that only needs to get done rather than needing deep focus, and this is especially true if you have tight deadlines. I know I could pretty easily fill up 10 hours of a working day on average

I understood it as both of them taking the far ends of the spectrum of work/parenting balance (one fully parenting, one fully working) rather than a "less extreme" scenario where both take more balanced roles in working/

Why do you think they're delusional? If there is a significant portion of their users that will not pay for their service, what is the upside of letting them watch your content for free?

IMO it’s #3 plus the point the poster made below about the homeless-to-not ratio seeming higher due to people staying home. I really haven’t noticed a significant difference in homelessness since I’ve lived in SF (mid 2010s). Not that it is

I like your framing. I think the challenge is just that people have different personalities. Some will be happy to go out with coworkers multiple times a week (and will stay in #2 unless they get the social aspect), some will treat a compan

Oh wow this resonates - I'm exactly the same. I basically try to minimize the time I spend thinking on most things. I have to consciously tell myself "I'm going to stop thinking and just do this task". It's amazing

I think it's really hard to look at the opioid epidemic and not think that these medications should have a really high bar to acquire. I'm sorry your father has to put in so much effort.

I think you're catching the overall sentiment, which is "why does it matter?". I actually wonder whether the causal direction works the other way sometimes with anxiety/depression. The combination of the two makes it har

Yeah, I agree with this. It's like writing a summary study sheet before an exam...the actual sheet is not that useful, but the work that went into it is. I've found OKRs to be pretty good for clarifying focus areas, both in my org

I'm not sure this is actually capturing the heart of the current arguments from current U.S. citizens, which IMO boil down to "how much control over the supply of labor in the U.S. do U.S. citizens have?" Even if your #1 is t

I don't really think remote work will end up in any meaningful rural revitalization. The main urban->other migration I've seen from remote work in my peer group (USA) has been from urban large urban area->smaller urban area

Easy mode is different. The goal is essentially to get as many 3s as possible while minimizing number of 5s. With any skill, actually losing will be almost impossible

I find this comment to be too ambiguous to be helpful. Could you elaborate on your points?

I think you are framing it as a top down objective, but I think it's the opposite. Employers themselves offer healthcare because it's a way to attract employees. You can get other health plans (e.g. Obamacare) but they are not as

200k is too low in the US to overwork as a SWE. If you doubled that number I think you would be closer

Yeah - this resonates. I think people understand that if you're a FANG and you hire many people and you have orders of magnitude more applicants, you can (maybe need) have a difficult hiring process with a high bar. The problem is that

I suspect there are many reasons, but probably employers for full time employees don't really benefit much from this. Your team overhead scales quite a bit by doing this (more hiring, more onboarding, more communication needed) with no

Did the dependency on slavery directly set the south back economically, or was it the destruction from the civil war?

Late 20s/early 30s male. Vaccinated first, which gave me a bunch of lightheadedness for a month. Caught covid 6 weeks later with loss of taste/smell (no real other symptoms) but recovered in a couple of days. All good since

Do you trust your manager? You should just tell him/her that. I don't think I'd worry about layoffs in this market. Big difference between unambitious and lazy/not competent. I'm a PM and devs like you are worth the

Yelp is still plenty good as a rough approximation for quality for me. Anything under a 3.5ish is buyer beware and anything above a 4 is a pretty safe bet the restaurant is good enough.

I agree. And it used to be the worst out of any of them, so props to their dev team. The video player does give me problems sometimes though

Oh yes, I didn't mean to imply kids = less housework. It is definitely the opposite--they have much more work that could always be done. What I meant was that parents get two things from the in-office life by default: 1. A forced sched
