I don't have links handy but afaik this was the original idea of early malls, like an enclosed town center that could handle various needs.

The 2 nuclear bombs were nothing compared to the fire bombings of Tokyo, etc. It freaked me out to read that the B-29s crews could smell the burning flesh while flying over these raids. Those raids were cruel, and I'm just not at all

Nice ha. Your story reminds me of why I flinch whenever I hear "just give them the spreadsheet, engineer, don't argue..."

Maybe, although even direct contacts either way without an introduction or referral has been a much better experience. I can't say without being a customer of Greenhouse myself, but I suspect they have some SaaS sauce or cross-company

My experience is almost a 100% correlation with being ghosted, so I'm assuming there's some quick and easy filters that I get dropped for. So I'm not wasting time without emailing with or talking to someone first.

I already bow out of leet code quizzes and companies that use Greenhouse for applications; and while I'm not changing the industry, it changes what part of the industry I deal with for the better, ha,

Not that someone wouldn't try, but wtf would advertisements even be in ai chats but a giant distraction and interruption? (Moreso than web or video now). They are usually a call to link to something else.

To each their own, but I wanted nothing MORE than to finally have my own place throughout life (first a bedroom, then a dorm room, then apt). It was a real motivator, and it's not that I didn't have decent relationships with room

Yeah I think there is a: "does this person get UIs at all, and like this type of work" filter that gets missed by some of these leetcode processes. Personally tired hearing "this guy ACED the interview, a++++" then the

Not specific to you possibly, but how about interviewing based on what you do in this role, and what the person has experience in? I'm personally done with frontend/UI development roles where the interviews expect you to "bru

There are some companies that have that, but the caveat is they have a terrible pipeline with non-technical, 20-something HR gals doing Greenhouse filters and queries for keywords, who shovel randos at hiring interviewers. I've never h

This seems to be the wet dream of mgmt leader types. It's not enough that AI/LLM tools make tasks more efficient, or quicker - it's their people can then be just as busy with these tools. My feeling is: buzz off, this is lik

I get it, and feel the same way but the current LLMs are very resource intensive. To the point that I'm reluctant to go all in on these tools if in future we get rug-pulled once companies admit "okay, this was not sustainable at

Yes, sounds like something politicians would say to deflect blame from themselves or their government.

I agree, take a look at Bootswatch: https://bootswatch.com I find it very nice that you can re-theme or brand your app with virtually no code or class changes.

Tailwind is fine, but I do find it humorous that they discourage wrapping up tw classes into a component class ala Bootstrap, but they wrap html up like this: <el-dropdown class="relative inline-block text-left">

I doubt problems would be unique to America, many parts Asia are more aggressive with selective births and distorting sex ratios already, I suspect this will be readily embraced and with the much larger populations will be more an impact.
