These salaries for NY look high to me, and there’s almost no variation based on experience. Whereas in my experience hiring here, entry level is $60-80k and seniors command around $150k. Now, that’s for startups. Banks will pay twice that.

What do the medians look like?

FWIW, I’ve been in the industry even longer than that. And yes, senior developers have the leverage to sometimes negotiate for more. But that doesn’t mean it’s not the most common policy or that most people (especially those in less in-dema

Are pedestrians and cyclists going to have to be "digitally signed" too in order to avoid getting killed?

Humans have enough intelligence, though, to be able to figure out when the other lane is oncoming traffic and those spurious markings are in fact spurious (snow or a plastic bag).

FWIW, I have yet to find a job in NY with a non-unlimited policy that gave more than 10 days combined PTO plus a handful of holidays. Tho at places with unlimited at least you can usually justify taking 3 weeks plus sick days even if 2 is t

IIRC with inflation it's now $80K. Maybe searching for that will yield better results?

5-8 weeks? Most places I've worked it's been an informal 2 weeks plus sick days.

Traditionally in many cultures, single adult men live alone but single adult women live with their families. Nowadays, women are moving out and living on their own as adults. I wonder if there’s also a change in the number of women seeking

They backtested this only against a recent period with no major economic downturns. Buyer beware.

What if handovers are dangerous in large part because the outgoing shift members are fatigued to the point of intoxication?

They can deal with it. Verizon has a tool to block this spam that used to cost $3/mo, and that they’re finally making available for free. Why they don’t simply block it from their network in the first place, though, is beyond me.

Most of the organizations doing this work are nonprofits, not companies.

Not necessarily unit tests, but automated tests in general? All the time. Setting aside linting failures (and frankly I’m not sure how those even get pushed), I’d say we have a new test failure on our integration branch in CI an average of

It could be good for America, but I’m skeptical it’s going to happen. Certainly not within 24 months.

Yes. But how much you get depends on how much you paid in during your working years, as well as what age you retire at.

We assign them hostnames in DNS. We have a domain set aside for this purpose.

The term “scooter” is also ambiguous, since it can refer to a class of low powered motorcycle or to the optionally motorized miniature skateboards with handlebars that Lime and Bird are trying to popularize.

If you’re not super familiar with the existence of New York County, that definitely makes sense as a default reading. For those of us who are, the headline was double-take worthy. And yes, I skimmed the comments for the answer instead of op

What’s your motivation for helping? Is it to gain recognition, specifically public recognition? You may need to re-examine your expectations. In a healthy workplace, helpfulness is expected; unless you go extraordinarily above and beyond it

You might have 30 people who live together; but even just to avoid inbreeding, their social milieu would likely include a handful of other bands with nearby territory. Thus any given persons social ties could very reasonably number in the l

If I did that, there would be an implicit "I'd like to know why" on the end of it, with the understanding that there might be a very good reason. But now that you point it out, I could see how that could come across as a cri

The Dunbar Number (the number of relationships any individual can maintain) is typically considered to be around 150-200. So there's a pretty good reason for that 200 number. The number of individual channels of communication in a com

Surely forgery is not the only thing any of us can do about getting people out of dire situations (or preventing the dire situations from existing in the first place)?

At grade bicycle lanes tend to be victims of snowplowing anyway, in my experience.

Define “need”? For me, if it’s a way to get back to phones that are small enough to use with one hand and fit into the stupidly tiny pockets of women’s jeans, they can’t come soon enough. But if they’re a way to open a phablet into a mid-si

Depends a lot on context. A simple CRUD query with a filter or two and a couple joins, in a large project maintained by a large team, is going to be more maintainable in an ORM. But many ORMs will be awkward for writing queries used for com
