I think everyone agrees on that. It’s an arbitrary hoop at this point. We’re just trying to find those who are willing to go the distance on the hoops.

It’s weird to me how many folks attest to “being at FAANG means you’re lazy.” The people I know who joined FAANG in the last five years are some of the hardest working people you’ll meet. There are some who get lucky and manage to coast but

I wonder if you’ve been through FAANG interviews in the last 8 years. It sounds like you haven’t. I’ve not found other companies interviews to be particularly good either. Non-leetcode interviews get biased a lot towards personality, resume

Thinking I could time the market after a big drop on IPO day (thinking maybe it'd rebound - which it did but then subsequently dropped and dropped and dropped). Should've just gotten access to my stock ASAP and sold everything. In

Is this comment sarcastic because I don’t see anything that stops them from baseball batting the camera to start…? Seems more effective than wifi jamming. Well - most effective is to just steal from an area where police are known to do noth

Yes - it is a daycare. However - maybe we improve it from a daycare to a place of learning. That’s why we could make high school more intensive and less daycare like.

If you have the time to write this all out - you have the time to find the supporting statistics. Most women don't use online dating - they've tried it but they don't use it. This is why the apps are overwhelmingly male. (Any

You’ve described all of it. I’d add in that there are more baby mamas than there are baby papas too. Men are born at a higher rate than women. (5-7%)

Unless you have really good projects to show off and have been studying LC a lot in your spare time - it’s gonna be hard to get a job for normies without one. Entry level is absolutely flooded with overqualified candidates. It’s no surprise

The first two sound like ADHD but the third doesn’t at all. That sounds like most people in the world. Everyone complains of the mundane, the same things, day in day out. We don’t hear “I love how nothing has ever changed in my life”. I’ve

I’ve wanted detailed tracking for years. Something that logged my position every five seconds or something. I wanted this to be something that other people did too. Then we can decide to share histories and see when we ever overlapped or we

Online dating is common but it doesn’t usually work for the average man. It will work for most women but most women don’t use it. Most men still need to find a partner through other means like cold approach (terrible - it’s highly dependent

Are we talking about paying for seats to spectate? Cause if so - I highly disagree. You might get lucky every so often but I found people generally keep to themselves/their friend group.

There's no clean solution here. It requires a shift in cultural norms for everyone. From what I've seen, there are two main issues: 1) amount of options is too much for most women (big cities, online dating, using shallow social n

100% this. Your experience on hinge will be terrible generally unless A) lucky or B) very good looking. I’ve gotten lucky with the ELO score once on Hinge out of the dozen times I created accounts on it. I was shown attractive women and got

If you think it’s redpillers who ruined the conversation around men’s sexual experiences - that shows just how well the mainstream media is at influencing you. Redpill was a niche subculture no one knew about (and mostly still doesn’t) - ju

Modern feminism has definitely been taken over by PMCs to disenfranchise workers from uniting. You’d have to be blind to not notice the “if you critique anything we say/make/do then you are the enemy!” type of division being sprea

Surprisingly more normal than people realize. Most don’t ever air their dirty laundry like this. You go through this as a man and it reinforces your suppression of feelings and desires to never open up to anyone because of the humiliation.

They’re also looking for repeat successes. If they give money to a founder early on and they have a hit - there’s a good chance they’ll want to found another company and they’ll have another hit.

> Lots of smaller companies that have comparable compensation Do you mean smaller companies that all have similar compensation to each other or similar to FAANG? Cause very few companies out there are paying $400k+ for senior engineers.

Russia lost a bargaining chip though with this. Before they could hold it ransom. With the pipe being destroyed - they can’t use it as a bargaining chip. It’s just gone. It doesn’t make sense for Russia to destroy its own pipelines when it

There may a saturation of job offers but the offers aren’t not good. I’m not getting staff offers for $500k+/yr from random enterprise IT consultancy. I’d be lucky if I even got granted stock at many of these companies - let alone a $2
