I agree to a certain extent that if replicating an upper middle class lifestyle is the parenting goal this can be successful. The big concern I have with that parenting model is antedoctoally these seem to be the people I have seen fall the

Neither do I, I don’t want to overstretch but I’ve seen a lot of blowback on GDPR lately and actions like this are what I think will get the US there eventually too.

Seems like there are some legitmate reasonings in this thread. I also wonder how much of it is just not wanting to explain making it potentially more difficult for a user to log in. Sort of like how credit card providers could make things m

Agreed, my hope is that it isn't a foreshadow for other industries. Once breaking regs and cheating (whatever that looks like for a given industry) become part of the revenue forecast. It’s pretty hard for market participants to compet

If you owe the bank $10,000 the bank owns you. If you owe the bank $1,000,000 you own the bank. Probably not entirely accurate for this situation but I would still love to see the risk calculations for allowing a ~mil in student loans.

Interesting, early on with a 4K monitor on a Mac I was having trouble with kernel panics I wonder if this was the cause.

Geniune question is anyone at liberty to comment on Google culture? Google has always been a sort of grass is always greener aspirational employer to me but lately I have to admit externally they don’t look as good.

Looks nice, bookmarked. As a side note focus stealing in OSs has to be one of my biggest pet peeves.

I don’t disagree at all on the size but I wouldn’t classify it as a mansion just a big house. As a Utahn who works remotely with lots of people from the coasts. I feel its my duty to mention Utah isn’t as cheap as they think it is ha.

It’s also not a low cost of living state either (not SV but not the midwest). That’s a $400K townhome with shared walls on both sides and a $225 HOA. Here is a milion dollar detached home in that area: https://www.zillow.com&#x2F

On one hand I can understand why some orgs are having trouble with GDPR. On the other hand it’s pretty clear the actions of more than a few have gotten GDPR to where it is. My takeaway at the moment is something along the lines of this is w

I see what you are saying it definitely could be the market share or maybe even just the overall volume (QA at scale). I guess I just don’t have a long enough track record with them to see them in that grouping of great customer service. Th

I have to echo this sentiment. I described it to a friend as me losing confidence in using Time as a reference in a semi-formal graduate paper. It sort of became an entertainment classification in my mind after that too.

If there is actually a need for this position? I’ve recently run into a few positions where they are just fishing and aren’t necessarily filling an existing position.

I don’t disagree at all on the PR side. Spent sometime in the contact center tools space and my general experience is if a company allows it exempt higher level employees avoid engaging with customer service directly at pretty much all cost
