Why would they not divulge audio from a public, live streamed announcement?

What does a “backup” mean, really? When a site posts multiple links to a stream, latter ones are “backups” but I’m not forbidden from using them. Most of the time, backups are just less good alternatives. Ostensibly, a non-video stream shou

1) who are you comparing with, ATT and Comcast? 2) I think most customers don’t even know what a ticket system is, or care. Apple is famous for very different things with consumers.

Companies need to be good at remote for workers to be successful. Merely offering it isn’t an option, you have to know you will be visible and able to not miss out on communication with the rest of the team. Companies that are 100% have to

I can understand this. I know my company has a bug backlog a mile long, and some real issues we should put substantial time into; but it would rather have HR put downwards pressure on compensation while pursuing record buybacks. It gives a

The incentives of the EC lead states to make votes winner take all. You’re gonna have a hard time reversing this without a process that looks a lot like a constitutional amendment.

That’s great, and I just don’t see a stress dimension here. -e- especially the necessarily stressful part of this role.

Impact matters but I think stress comes into play when you feel like things are going more wrong than right. And I wouldn’t say that most high paying tech responsibilities are anywhere near life or death decisions. But are much closer to co

I hear this a lot, and I likely don’t disagree. But I never see career pages with $$$ next to the job listings. So I’m not sure how most companies get this across. Most I’ve talked to want a phone screen before they have the expectations ta
