Not my experience at all, of all the major tech companies MS consistently has the best docs, especially dev docs for c#, .net, angular/ts, etc

Or you could literally outsource 90% of that and focus on what you actually should be, engineering and development of Firefox and other Mozilla products. These companies are bloated beyond belief and they have nothing to show for it, clearl

Yeah Mozilla at this point is really like the kid riding the bike and putting a stick in his own front tire meme. I had an interview with them years ago and even then it was clear they were wasting time on the most pointless bureaucracy whi

I don’t think this is really true at all, at any decently busy establishment there’s no way the bartender could possibly be responsible for what their patrons do after leaving when they barely have time to take their orders

What you call “monopolistic behavior” a senior/lead engineer with a brain will see as ecosystem compatibility. If you are working within an org that already uses Microsoft for everything, why the hell would you bother introducing a new

Yeah I don’t get this thread at all, AWS is a usability nightmare, as are all Amazon products. Microsoft products aren’t great usability wise but they’re clearly better than Amazon imo. I have a feeling a lot of the commenters here last use

Yeah I don’t get this thread at all. I’ve used both fairly extensively and while Azure’s dashboard is still a pain in the ass, it’s better than AWS by a mile usability wise. Not to mention, Microsoft clearly puts time and money into their d

If everyone in this thread shitting on Azure is going off how it worked in 2016 the comments here make a lot more sense. I know Microsoft bad still lingers in online communities but I have to say I’m surprised hackernews is still this anti

Okay but you can’t rely blame this on DEI or racism for sure. Plenty of people have had the same experience (myself included) with tons of companies and their hiring processes, it’s not like being given unfair conditions in interviews defin

I always bring this up to extremely woke people. I grew up at the poverty line in rural Minnesota with a blue collar truck driver father, divorced parents, in a trailer park. I don’t say this to get sympathy, I am proud I overcame it. But D

lol I have been saying similar things here in Minnesota for years. A lot of extremely liberal, wealthy progressives like to try to change landmarks around here to the native language version. I have no issue with this at face value. What I

People are paying their own money to see these shows, protesting by ruining that experience is just going to piss people off and hurt your cause.

Yeah, music streaming is already way overcrowded with actual humans making music, I don’t see how this will ever actually take off.

You’re allegedly “not writing the guy a pass” but then you go on to do so anyways. If Johansson isn't lying and Altman did personally reach out to her, I really don’t see how you can even attempt to argue this is some middle manager gu

This simply isn’t the case in the vast majority of companies, and honestly just seems kind of naive. Corporate America is a game of politics. Yeah working hard always looks good, but the guy who gets the promotion is the guy your boss plays

Exactly. If my boss is happy with my output, and work is still getting done on time, why does it matter how many hours I actually work? I don’t get paid more for going above and beyond. The only reward for busting your ass in corporate Amer

Agreed, but even here in the states that has been considered a “racist” position for decades, as has securing the borders. Which after doing a lot of international travel confuses me. I wouldn’t illegally move to Japan, expect them to not d

You’re correct, but as a foreigner that lived in Japan for 3 months, it gets very old constantly having to use google lens or translate just to go grocery shopping. In most European countries, people will know a tiny bit of broken English a

He talks about in his streams how horrible the communication he’s received from AMD is. From what I listened to, it seemed like that was more of why he was giving up initially. Why do a bunch of free work for a massive company that won’t ev

100%. I have noticed this in a ton of contested topics. It will often make some kind of judgement on the topic nowadays, which is not what I want out of Wikipedia. It’s my biggest issue with mainstream media as well. I don’t need your opini

Probably because this project has been in development for decades and overran it’s timelines and budgets multiple times (to my knowledge). Congress already hates funding NASA, can’t imagine they were lining up to give them more money when I
