It's a small red cocktail flag to me, something that needs verification and but not bad enough by itself. As usual read the rest of the ad, talk to the recruiter, read reviews and see if your worries are actually real. Job ads are plac

what is the goal of your testing?

He can help testing open source software, that requires less programming knowledge and more of being "street smart". Personally I would recommend getting into scale modelling, either plastic or wood. Building a scale wooden ship

Be humble, a lot of the great advice given here are a direct result of that. You are not smarter than others, your code does and will have bugs and design problems, you documentation will suck, you will need ways to debug tricky bugs, the d

In Sweden you can get salary statistics through Saco and your union, I guess the top ones will be what you are looking for

Normal AFAIK, myself I exercised and sold all my options the first moment possible just to hit the all time high of the company that only went down since then

> recovery rarely happens (looking at all those HN threads) for the record you mention yourself that there is a selection bias here, someone recovering fast and painlessly won't write here

Like others have mentioned this is a thing even in not exotic embedded systems, and it should be a thing for mobile applications although many tend to neglect this aspect as you can clearly see in bad app reviews. At some point of my career

Did they? maybe they simply became bigger so you see more of the same greed multiplied by their relative growth ?

90% of startups fail, in Las Vegas you have a 14% chance to win now make your choice. I sold my stocks (not Amazon but a very early employee at a small company that still exist and somewhat profitable) as soon as I could and ended up sellin

I am happy to live in Sweden where work contracts are one page of simple language
642.
by 2rsf 6y ago
IANAL but in some places (or at least in Israel) there's a subtle difference between signing a standard contract and asking for changes when it gets to court. It doesn't mean you shouldn't ask for changes but at least give it

I thought that 'real-time Java' was the joke

officially they do want you to use it, that's what the special version was for, unofficially ? just buy a new one while upgrading you Desktop on the way

For a while they used to give away a license-less version of those CS2 products, try searching maybe you can still get them.

I witnessed that myself, but what alternatives exist for a company that is concerned about security, long term support, and general dependability ? I don't see my managers allowing me to use a small company without a significant plan o

Loud alarms are illegal in Israel, OTH car theft is a big problem there. The solutions range from immobilizers to GPS trackers being mandatory by insurers, but thieves became smart as well, they know how to bypass an immobilizer in seconds,

As someone that started his career in real time embedded systems, debugging hardware and writing code close to the "metal" I definitely do but not the way you suggest, I simply can't overlook how things are designed and built

Evernote ? It's not super good for this purpose, and you will need to move to one of the paid programs but it offers scanning, searching in PDF and some organization and structure

That's cool but still limiting, the infrastructure is going to be expensive and not easily available in remote places. Batteries that could be charged by "refueling" [1], or fuel cells that require hydrogen are a much more fe

It is more confusing than in Slack but Slack uses a different section as well. I don't like how Slack keeps only a limited list of recent chats there, the hit-miss ratio for me is terrible and I usually need to re-search for the person

Correct, they are hardly related although AFAIK some merging was done during the last years

You don't need something fancy like motor sparks to kill a 2.4Ghz WiFi, a leaky Microwave will do that and perfectly explain the 1 minute length. Switching to 5Ghz will help if this is the case

Obviously it depends on what country you are in, but in a few examples I know of it is perfectly legal for them to do that. You don't want to be tracked ? use you own device and network.

by 2rsf 6y ago
AFAIK legislators in most countries do not agree that this protection is needed. Employers are not allowed to track you in your private time, in the toilets or putting a camera under you chair, but it is perfectly fine to track your usage o

> separate subnet Why ? theoretically you have a point, but practically which company would spy on your network ? I totally understand, and agree to some degree, a company protecting its assets and tracking what their employees are doing

But that's a good strategy regardless of Corona, you don't want you kid to download stuff into your work environment or watch NSFW stuff on a work related computer.
