It would literally take less than 10 minutes to make a crappy looking sign like that on a vinyl plotter, from laying it out on a laptop to cutting and sticking it.

I'm sorry man, but this tape sign guy is a fucking idiot and all the hubbub is retarded too He's using the wrong tools to poorly do a menial job slowly. If you can't see that, I don't know what's wrong with you May

Considering that you can pull in 100-300k as a security professional at a company, and a multiple of that as a consultant, I don't think that YouTube ad money is that big a deal

Or take a more gradual approach and aggressively save as much as possible, then retire 10-30 years early

Man, that's a really good point. You can't get ahead at big companies by just keeping your head down and working hard. You don't need to become a weasel, but you do need to keep your eyes open and jump ship early when a pro

I don’t think they can ask that, but it doesn’t take any mental gymnastics to imagine a false arrest leading to false incarceration if the accused can’t afford a good lawyer. Or even being fired from a low-end job when they miss some work

If you pay $130k a year or less, you can't recruit engineers with the talent to compete with the US companies Just check out top Japanese software offerings and compare them to their American equivalents and you'll see what I mean

Haha, it's true, man. I recently moved to Japan to live with family for a while. I interviewed at the top Japanese software companies in Japan, and even though I'm a senior engineer with 10 years' experience in FAANG in the

Oh man, that reminds me of an experience I had in college. I was working with the aerospace department on their fusion reactor (I was just writing software to help them process data from it, not involved in the science itself). My boss ke
