Or maybe you never worked in certain domains of problems ? Not everything is a web app

Hmmm sometimes I send/read, but I have notifications off and have zero expectation of replies or replying.. just when I'm bored.

Nvidia, like many other tech companies, has many people/teams/departments/division. Is very hard to get a clear view of the world from a single point. Who knows, maybe if you joined you would have hated it too, or loved it !

Absolutely it can. But it's rarer than you think.

mid-size with thousands of engineers? Wow, mid-size for me is around 100-200 people :)

I don't ! I've been using Joplin, much simpler and has what I need + the sync story seems better/less expensive.. I just need a folder-like structure for markdowns and some labels (which I barely use) to sync w/ encrypti

Yes, same with cloud and giving devs full access to AWS/Azure/You-name-it. Disaster waiting to happen

Yes I rented a Tesla recently in Ontario and I didn’t realize it takes 6h for a full charge, I also didn’t had a charger in the hotel neither did I have a nearby. Basically had to Uber while charging…

Why should the government of Canada be on Facebook's team instead of the Canadian Telecom's team?

I think it's a last resort for someone who isn't listening to a specific feedback well, it requires the manager (IME) to be crystal clear on what's not working well, and how they can improve it. And to follow up on in some ca

In my experience, having PIP'd people, that's hasn't ever been the case. It's never fun for the manager or the person or the company. In 3/4 of the cases they passed with flying colours and both sides were glad we w

Not every startup is like that. There's plenty of 9-5 out there. Look for startups with older people who have kids..

100% ! Doesn't take any of it too seriously, try your best to be part of the act and have a positive impact on it, don't get upset if it isn't working out for whatever reason or if it simply isn't your kind of theatre !

Why do you think random people on hackernews are going to take the effort to read your code ?

They stay in my inbox, whenever I have time I read one and archive.. I do not read them often. I have also unsubscribed to a bunch as they have too much for me to casually consume. Pragmatic engineer one is great that it has a single topic

pragmatic engineer and levelup from Pat are the ones I read the most. The first one I'm not paying for, as I don't have the bandwidth to consume more than the free edition as it stands. I probably read one article per month from b

Stay in a company for long enough time to get the experience required :) There's a lot of books on it, "Staff Engineer: Leadership beyond .." is a good one (more towards Staff rather than Mgr/Director). I rarely see peop

that's wrong in so many levels, once you're director+ or staff+ it's very unlikely that you will make more money moving rather than going deeper

Don’t forget that Star Wars and Pixar were created at the dawn or computing too. What is creative for you ?
