Yes, I quit, wasn't laid off. But now I'm in the same pool as the tens of thousands of other very qualified people. How do you think that affects my job hunt?

It's funny because for 10 years people were saying "get this big company on your resume and you can just walk into any job!" Clearly not the case anymore

It will be painful to get a 50%+ paycut but I'm willing to accept any job - but like others guessed small companies instantly reject me. I only get interviews with other companies similar to FAANG, only for them to tell me they have a

I can't find another job even with a FAANG background. The market is brutal. Maybe my only choice is to start a startup.

Do you think big tech companies will stop paying that much? With the high interest rates I wouldn't be surprised to see the offers drop significantly. Also as an ex-FAANG engineer laid off, I'm having a lot of trouble finding a ne

Although I personally dislike product people, I recognize the value they have to organizations focused on growth. But when you're facing a recession you probably only need a fraction of them.

Maybe a weird question, by why does everyone assume that we will continue to have improvements and GPT-5,6,7,8 will surely "get there"? Isn't it possible that we've almost reached the limit of this technology and it won&

It's all just a game looking at the charts until the real estate "investment" companies are invaded by thousands of homeless people and the CEOs executed. Are people just supposed to not live anywhere? How long will this last

Congress is so out of touch with young people - the actual users of TikTok that I'm surprised there aren't riots in the streets. Why do we let these old geezers control our country?

I'm not very creative but I look forward to seeing what "dangerous" things people will do when the limiters are removed. What's the worst that can happen, it writes some offensive text? Recipes on making dangerous items?

That's what social media encourages. It glamourizes certain lifestyles not among celebrities, but among your own friends. I'm not sure how to put it but it's a lot easier to be a mean/nasty person online. Or it's ju

First of all, TLDR. I'll give my opinion though. It's not that social media apps are the ones hurting us, they are merely exposing us to the nasty nature of humans. Closing your eyes and not using social media doesn't mean th

Probably at home because inflation made it not worth it to work for low wages?

$500,000 is not a lot after all the inflation we had. $100,000 in 1970 is worth almost $800,000 today. Yes, downvote me all you want. But if you're an NLP expert thinking of working for a company that will make billions off your work,

Makes me think, with all the guardrails ChatGPT has the only way to tell the AI apart from a human is how it writes about controversial topics. Maybe we'll be seeing professional articles dropping more slurs just to prove they were wri

Nah, they were making those years ago too. 2021 was a much crazier time.

As some like to say, supply and demand. If the market decides a haircut in that location is now $200 instead of $20 then its just the free market working as intended.

Dear Metamates, I've had to make some hard decisions, to fire ten thousand of you. But don't worry I take full responsibility for this failure.

The answer is PHP or Rails, just like its been the last 10+ years. Anyone who suggests Go is severely out of touch. It's a great language sure but for a webapp MVP it'll just be a waste of time. I would even doubt any flavor of JS

I think you're saying better education drives higher housing prices, right? But cities generally have high housing prices, so why is the education not as well funded? Why would the money go to rural areas?

Everyone should take some time to do nothing. Even just 30 minutes a week helps. Just sit and think. Or go for a walk, don't bring your phone or anything. Don't go anywhere or talk to anyone, just walk and let your mind wander. Yo

And do what? Just sit on it? No, it'll be sold for a lower price to someone who needs a home.
