This is a late reply but basically, you're completely wrong. There are certain aspects that someone on site has to be sign off on, but no the majority of engineers on site don't have to be responsible for really anything other tha

You have to be smart enough, and humble enough to recognize when someone else's vision is what your company needs at the moment. I'd imagine that a good CEO would be able to both simultaneously provide the direction of a company w

In all fairness, a lot of other disciplines of engineering could be described the same way. My SO for instance is a civil engineer at a construction company. The company works on multi million dollar projects building airports, hotels, scho

Wanting companies that work on these problems is great. But finding ones with unique and interesting value propositions is probably incredibly hard. There is a reason that the Hollywood model for instance, has managed to last 100 years. Yea

It's worse than that. Studio's are simply declining to license their stuff to Netflix for streaming at all. Losing Disney was incredibly telling because their catalog is so big and diverse I can't imagine that Netflix wasn&#x

I think it's important to note that this is not by choice, but rather the only path left to Netflix now that studios have realized the value of their catalogs to streaming. Netflix originally made a bunch of content deals that made the

Leaving an apparently loveless marriage and getting a divorce doesn't mean abandoning your family. Most people who get divorced are still involved in their kids lives. My parents got divorced when I was 10 and my family was much happie

Absolutely, but it's up to the board or whatever functions similarly at a university to make that decision. I'm not laying out an algorithm for president's inflated salary just explaining what i see to be the reasoning behind

One way or another the recruiter is going to find out. But in this situation it seems like very much not your problem. What I would do is accept the job but inform the company that while you're not going to go out of your way to inform

I like reading, so I'd guestimate most years I end up somewhere well north of 100. For me the key has always been in binging. I might read 6-7 books in a week and then not again for 3-4 weeks. Two caveats being that a) I naturally read

Because those things are not in and of themselves scams. Is it a bad idea to buy a $2M car or a 6k hand bag? Probably but at the end of the day you still get something out of it, an overpriced car or bag. The very nature of some of these IC
