Interesting, I guess for me it's hard to tell how strong "remote" relationships really are. Fortunately, I'm more articulate / interesting in my writing than when people talk to me. But "being accountable&quo

Yeah, the most depressing part of this is that I'm even jealous of the social camaraderie my finance roommate talks about having with the other analysts he spends late office nights with. At least he has the option of an office and pe

Not sure, but it wouldn't surprise me if there was.

The tough thing with these laws is that the direction is clearly positive, yet it seems to just harm anyone doing remote work in CO. Hopefully they don't have to wait for the tax base to erode before making adjustments to the law or w

The price of construction matters considerably whether you're planning on building mass market apartments or condominiums. Most cities have explicitly different building codes based on the intended use of the dwellings, interestingly

Agreed, I'm a solidly above average engineer. However, even as interview loops have been easier I still worry that for my age / YOE I'd be leaving valuable money on the table to go and try to start a business that at best wo

I think the bigger numbers game is guessing when you'll be both experienced enough and risk tolerant enough to make the leap. At 23 I sure as hell didn't know enough to start a company, led alone code a product end to end. At 27

I have a decent backstop and quite frankly I still have a relatively middle of the road risk tolerance. I've done one startup and quite frankly just grinding and doing stuff I like is starting to sound like a much better route as I&#x

Good luck with that haha. It's weird, it took two years, but at this point I can't really imagine having to be in an office for more than three days a week. Granted, if I had a FAANG tier salary I'd stop complaining.

Yep, I distinctly remember the last time I had to use a Microsoft Office product and have genuinely enjoyed not using windows since I don't play video games anymore. Occasionally I plug in my SSD with windows to edit video with Adobe

My favorite un-ironic ProductHunt product was an app that would let you map where you cried. Absolutely nutty. I miss peak product hunt :(

I'm a fan of eth / some blockchain projects, FileCoin, Chia and LivePeer to name a few. That said, I'm blown away how posers can really sit behind a project that's literally pictures of pixelated rats that sell to despe

The worst new trend I've seen is a "soft offer" prior to the final round interview. These are also usually way out of alignment with the role / other teams. Not willing to name and shame here - but it's annoying a

The co-working space I used to go right out of college used to have Sonos speakers. Occasionally, there'd be times when I wanted to work where the couches were but didn't want to listen to blaring pop music or something that was

Unfortunately the government is imminently planning on requiring "smart" features like a law enforcement lowjack for "hot cars"[0] and a remote "kill switch" [1]. Granted, I'd be more than okay building a

Thank you for making this! But I generally enjoy using shit amazon interviews as a nice warm-up for an interview loop.

I'm not exactly social but I have nearly a dozen friends within 5-10 minutes of where I currently live. We all work full-time and also don't drink and easily see each other 1-2 times per week, sometimes we do more involved trips

It's surprisingly hard to consistently find startups willing to pay over $140k - some offers are low key insulting. However, if I cared less about having any semblance of a social life I'd leave new york immediately. $200k+ full

Situations like this are why I'm afraid to get married. Maybe I'm a coward but I'd like to avoid strife like this if possible.

This is awesome! Very cool to see developer-first real modern desktop tooling being put together.

Is this literally a joke? This might as well be a doomsday machine driven by weak AI selecting new Greek glyphs to drive demand for new superfluous covid vaccines. I'm fully vaccinated, but more data points to come up with media fear

Yeah, I realized my aspirations to be a founder / work at early stage startups were kind of idiotic after a while. But more importantly, I realized I just liked making more money and only dealing with my own problems. It sort of sucks

Yeah, if at any point I had to do any kind of remote meeting in the metaverse I'm totally okay just moving to a rural area and not doing tech things for the rest of my life.

I've only heard horror stories from people using this on real apps. The last one was a bug where MinIO wouldn't actually assert a file had been updated or something. Maybe they've improved since then, but I wouldn't ca
