Yup! The change order strategy or nickel and dime strategy tho autocorrect suggested “buckle and dime” and that would also work. Unfortunately as much as engineers and owners reps complain about this way of doing business it’s quite accepte

Thanks for the considerate response! I think the no-ego environment does a lot of work towards being more effective and increasing self-esteem. It's just so conducive to learning! But learning can be difficult especially if someone who

Wow that's crazy! Was it cultural issues for example foreign born coworker who doesn't understand how respect in the USA works in text form? That's an interesting point about high skill/experience/knowledge inequali

My understanding is that increasing interest rates would tame inflation however there will be a slight recession or dip since prices will fall and given the upcoming elections the powers that be want a VERY gradual uptick with minimal econo

New CEOs generally have a lot of political capital upfront and many are chosen because they have a specific vision and strategy the company should take. So it actually makes the most sense to be bold first since there will be big new change

This does not generally happen, at least full copy and paste. What usually gets used are the “details” which are the parts of the blue print modern terminology is Construction Drawings or CDs that show very zoomed in specifics which will be

I mean “tech position” is extremely vague here if you’re going to make them code because what you actually need is an engineer then yeah I would prefer the leetcoder too but if you’re going to build a team and put processes in place then I’

So if you could go back in time would you take a gap year? In general I think freshmen / sophomores don’t take enough advantages & don’t understand the professional implications of their time in college.

There’s a ton of bio specific domain knowledge you’d need to pick up. I haven’t met too many self taught comp bio people I’d imagine it’s the same as the number of self taught computational mechanics people. From my limited experience (this

This is a very strange comment. Zymergen is a synthetic biology company selling bioengineered products and not a bioCAD company selling bioinformatics services. These are completely different business models. This would be like looking at t

Wouldn't your approach have the unintended consequence of making other interviewers pick up your slack by increasing their false positive rate or by weighing other less measurable qualities? aka going by ivy or "feeder" schoo

Agreed! Also if residents worked regular hours like normal people instead of going after the cokehead who came up with the whole residency process. This isn't the military there's no reason for that sort of environment.
