You can make SF/Seattle/coastal money without participating in leetcode interviews. There is a fascination on this website with these cities, but you can make just as much from just about anywhere without going through this popul

I know this limits job opportunities, but a few years ago I started pre-screening the interview process. I ask specifically if the interview will be the whiteboard-type. If the answer is yes, I politely refuse the interview and tell them

As someone who was on the R&D Infotainment team on the US side of one of the big Japanese manufacturers, I had many heated debates with management over these "features," which became a big enough deal for me that it was one of

Solid "unsolicited" (odd thing to say) advice here, especially in the third paragraph. Another description for this I think is simply being genuine. Being genuinely interested in other people's lives, their families, and th

As a big-time hunter myself, I'm glad you got them all out. It sounds like the ones that stayed back were well prepared. Surprise snowfall is no joke and can catch out even the best mountaineers. Countless day hikers have lost their

I'm chiming in to your intellectually lazy comment claiming any kind of myocardits being mild, so I can guarantee it's at least one internet stranger. Also, I never claimed being exposed to COVID without vaccination doesn't c

I'm happy for you that you aren't mad, as there is no reason to wear the burden of anger in your life. At a young age I had pericarditis (idiopathic), which developed into both myocarditis and pericarditis. I've now had per

I suppose this is where someone who actually knows what they are talking about should chime in. Myocarditis is actually extremely serious, whether deemed "mild" or not. Once an inner chamber or valve in the heart has been inflam

I would be more inclined to think insider, but I suppose it could also be an external player. Maybe they have had access for awhile and been waiting for the right time, whenever that would have been. Either way, their hand would have been

This is bizarre to me that people would actually say this to you. Anecdotally, I've worked for some pretty well known tech companies and have never heard anyone talk this way openly. I never worked in Silicon Valley or SF, but these

Don't leave out that this person probably just went through a series of wonderful whiteboard hazing interviews as well.

Not to go too far off topic, but as an ex-military person and a weapons owner who always carries concealed, I agree mostly with you. I don't think I would have always agreed, but American society has become extremely sick. There are a

I agree with you, but context definitely matters here... With all the dominoes starting to fall, there is nothing wrong with moving funds out of exchanges or to a temp address. This seems equivalent to going cash in the equity markets as

"I assume a claim could be made (although it would be hard to support) that, on average, more conservatives are suspended than progressives for similar behaviour" Thanks, that pretty much wraps it up.

Yep, you are spot on there.

Sure, but a driver isn't blocking the guys right behind them. Someone isn't going to win the race from 10 cars back, but anyone three seconds behind the leader can pull it off. From what I saw, a driver would easily be able to p

Surely you can see where I was going with this? A lot of people leveraged into cryptocurrencies the past few years. So if money seems to have disappeared, it could be something to look into if this person had ever talked about it. If he&#

This seems extreme to me to be that empathetic when someone has broken into your home while you are inside, even in hindsight with the fact that it was non-violent situation for you. Coming into someone's home when you know they are t

I think you are asking the right question when asking if there is something inherent with the people, or if the systems are failing. But being binary about it strikes me as a tribal. The realistic answer to your question is that a little

Did this person happen to ever talk about cryptocurrency?

Would agree that we are totally screwed now. I tend to wonder sometimes if we've actually always been this dumb, but now that we are connected enough we can see it better. And this phenomenon seems to amplify not only how dumb we are

Thanks for this comment. I love experiences like this and this makes me want to go to Amsterdam even more at some point. I've experienced this in random small towns in the US, but they are few and far between.

I have some family members that are huge fans, so I follow somewhat. It should be noted with your link that Darlington is a much faster and lengthier track than Martinsville. At Darlington, Larson was very close to Hamlin when he initiate

Some tracks are more hard on them than others, but I haven't heard much about any negative affects in NASCAR besides feeling dizzy or off balance for several hours after a race. Open wheel drivers commonly pull over 5 G's though

I'd agree with you. As a sidenote, I held an American professional Superbike racing license through most of my 20s and did a whole bunch of crazy stuff I won't mention here on top of it. Watched several people die and get maimed

I would agree mostly, but this comment a little on the extreme side IMO. You sound miserable. I can relate as this is exactly how I felt the first 6 months of the first child we had - they are between 4 and 7 now. I was and still am a pre

Hah, this is spot on. It's like groundhog day every week and interesting to watch in real time. I've been mostly tuned out for years now. People say to me all the time, "Have you heard of <insert outrage for the week her

Ah, the ol' Hacker News "being a contrarian just to be a contrarian" thing. Boobs on the screen isn't the greatest look at work or any public location, and I don't really think it requires going any deeper than that

My thoughts exactly. When the comment you responded to mentioned the word "reddit," this immediately came to mind.
