I had hoped I could easily recreate the healthy routines I had when working in office, but it hasn’t panned out. Discipline and routine have been really hard to figure out without the forcing function of a commute. For example: 1. An early

Yes it does. I found it pretty enlightening. It tracks almost perfectly with how I feel in the morning and helped me get a sense of how alcohol in particular affected me.

In my experience, you just have to accept the low hit rate. Worst case you’ll have some awkward small talk, best case you’ll meet people that you’ll find a lot in common with, and those relationships will last a while. You just have to acce

Deli board is good but it still feels quite overpriced (as with most things in SF). I’ve had it a bunch (I live close) but it’s never quite worth the $20

I think this is a pretty interesting problem. Assuming they DID have new features that were useful and valuable, what's the best way for you to learn them? I also find the random recommendations annoying, but discoverability for voice

This is really regionally dependent. It would be extremely difficult to do 75K in the bay area or many parts of the northeast. Very easy in many parts of the southeast and midwest. Regardless, I think the point of 75K is that it's the

The only reasonable conclusion I can think of is that the security team had no worry that politicians would be in any danger (e.g. easy, isolated, fast escape routes) and that it would be hard to rationalize to bring out the troops/big

That doesn't really jive with my personal experience, which is that contributors really don't want the only path to career progress to be a transition to management. I saw this happen firsthand at a consulting company--the technic

I have the same background and I think you either missed something, or your degree was much more EE focused. I had the required data structures + algorithms classes as part of my computer engineering curriculum

If you’re lumping in economic change with social change, I think that’s broadly true. What’s also easier is the fact that progressives generally have to 1. Pick things to change and 2. Give some indication of how they’ll change it. Often it

It's not a relic, it's a way to price labor effectively. You're not paying for work, you're paying for the candidate to choose you over a competitor. If you're competing against local Bay Area or high CoL companies

Of course, if they ever had a reason to change. But they don't, because they don't really have a problem with supply of candidates. They have issues with selecting for quality, but adding tons of candidates with online degrees doe

Because this is all driven by initial post-university employment (and to some extent post-graduate degrees). Employers use university as a screen for jobs, and perceive candidate value based on university prestige. University prestige is ba

I think for most universities it's not a significant profit driver, but I bet it's great marketing for prospective students.

it's a "superior" product because it's new and not yet commercialized. once it is, you'll get the same sort of gaming (influencer culture, ad placement, etc) that you see in every other social media

I wouldn't say it's necessary, but it has been very valuable for me. I got my previous job through a linkedin posting and I regularly have recruiters reach out for interesting jobs on the platform.

Yep, I think the vast majority will. Many companies are allowing remote work for the rest of 2020 with no change in compensation. Once that ends, I'd expect people to come back. I think probably another driver of the decreased rents ar

I'm curious on how the dynamics would change in that system. Frankly I think it would make everything quite a bit worse. I think one of the only benefits of twitter is that it allows organic popularity. Once you add penalties for getti

a junior developer in SF can pretty easily afford to rent their own apartment straight out of university. most won't, but they could.

There are no initial employee agreement terms being amended and I'm a bit confused on how it could be interpreted that way. The initial agreement still holds, but FB is extending an additional option that was not offered originally for

Yeah everyone loves those things too, they just don't want to deal with the cost and quality of life from the homeless/drug problem. I walked up to beautiful Corona Heights today and saw all of the amazing views, but then I walked
