I think there’re much better ways to reason about it rather than “hurr durr China government lies”. It’s not something you believe or don’t, we’re not talking about god. Just put forward a hypothesis based on data for how many deaths there

You have to go a great length to convince children it’s important. My feeling is that most don’t care about natural sciences. Also, boiling things down to ELI5 means you have to trust the scientists. It’s not like Newtonian physics where yo

It might come as a surprise to you, but most people can’t reason about life sciences. Climate change is more tricky than the rest, as you can’t make an experiment to prove a theory. Yes, there’re models that can probably prove the point, bu

It’s a trade-off. It’s very convenient for me to pay with ApplePay. But there’s a risk I won’t be able to pay for groceries if my iPhone is out of juice.

Something software engineers came up with to feel exceptional. There’re great people in most professions, but this “10x” concept is completely subjective and not quantifiable.

I mean, there’re brilliant individuals in any profession. I don’t see how that turns into a generalization. Most of engineers I’ve seen had to spend many years to become senior. Selling fast growth is denying the reality for most people.

Junior to senior in 2.5 years? I mean, you could do it, by playing politics. But are you really a senior engineer?

Wayfair, Amazon, and MS probably pay above the market. But I heard 100k+ is typical for senior SE. While 80k has been on the higher end just 2-3 years ago. That’s for Berlin.

I have the opposite experience. I don’t get any messages from recruiters after having set the appropriate preferences. And I use LinkedIn to connect to relevant people in my field.

I didn’t want to take my work MPB 16 back home. So I access Jupyter lab from iPad Air now. The slightly annoying thing is the Logitech keyboard that doesn’t have ESC button. Otherwise, it’s fine as a thin client for a remote server.

Or maybe there’s unequal wealth distribution. Someone might be willing to pay but can’t make that much. One example is software engineer vs mailman.
