I assume this is satire, but that aside -- many of my friends who entered into big tech as new grads with "unlimited pto" are indeed very hesitant to take it. They are worried that it'd affect how their managers see them. The

Likely it was an expired domain. I have seen this trend happen quite a bit with semi-popular domains, e.g., International Olympiad in Informatics 2019 official website, ioi2019.az

I'm gonna silently hope that this means we'll suddenly have extremely cheap GPU and RAM selling out in 2027. Hardware prices have gotten out of hand.

I was hoping to see some discussion about how to relieve the pressure in my back. Damn AI terms these days. FYI, back raises have been really helpful.

Calling a Polymarket dashboard a "Bloomberg Terminal" is doing a lot of heavy lifting here. The value of a Bloomberg Terminal isn't the UI (which is famously terrible/efficient); it's the latency, the hardware, the

Nice to see a fully free app without ads. Curious, do you plan to keep it that way and make no money from Indy?

I use a self hosted HedgeDoc with Fail2Ban to deal with this. A cheap VPS + Coolify makes life so much better. Separately, be cautious of people putting illegal content on your platform.

I have worked in software for much less than 20 years, yet I have quickly realized the same. There has been many occasions in many different settings that I have brought up a society-related problem and it simply got ignored in the conversa

It's amusing to me that the path for this announcement is "/official-response". That's a top level path with a generic name! :-)

Not only Azerbaijan, but the whole Caucasia is included (Armenia and Georgia too). Given Trump's recent peace middlemanship between Azerbaijan and Armenia, this is actually somewhat surprising.

I'm also a recent Course 6 grad ('24), and I want you to know you aren't the only one feeling this way and going through the same process. I have fortunately been lucky with the hiring process but have seen the real brutality

Wondering if you plan to keep running the team on Discord forever -- I feel like larger companies who care about operations & privacy/security usually move to an enterprise solution like Slack or self-host a tool. Can Harmony join

I personally wish for the time when AI can replace everything I can do (at least in my current field). I'm not sure how exactly I'll feel about it then, but it'd be a technological advancement I'd enjoy seeing in my life

I struggle with the "good guys vs bad guys" framing here. Is a small indie dev "dodgy" if they use AI to unblock a tricky C# problem so they can actually finish their game? Yarn Spinner seems to conflate "Enterprise
