If your devops guys are struggling, you are hiring the wrong devops folks, or at the wrong end of the pay band. Most devops guys I know are paid in the same band as a senior developer.

$50 after walking off a $1200 flight, $60 upgrade to board early, and $12 in cocktails is not a substantial amount. Plus lunch/dinner on the way to/at the airport for $40. And you're gonna pay $8-12 to get downtown via public

I'm not sure about tech salaries, but based on several surveys, it would appear that effective tax rate for most workers is about the same between european countries and united states. They just spend less on defense, and more on socia

Minimum wage is important when you have more people wanting to work, than jobs. Right now 1 in 300 people just died, a bunch retired, and 3-5% of the remaining workforce is out with covid and/or post-covid syndrome. So right now there

Depends on the neighborhood. Arguably, bay area prices peaked in October of 2015, and have been flat or down slightly. If you convert housing prices to $/square foot, it hit and has been flirting with the "magic psychological pric

People under 35 change on average every 20 months in the US. People who are focused on salary and career achievement. There are a lot of people who get a job and blank out on cruise control and wake up 10-15 years later and wonder why every

"will provide power at wind speeds from 8 to 28 miles per hour" Neat idea but unless you are within 3 miles of the coast you're unlikely to see wind speeds above 6mph in your area for any sustained period of time.

Interesting to see him zero in on Cusco and Bogota. Both are equatorial(esque) cities. Bogota is at 8,000 ft and Cusco is at ~11,000 ft, and both have sunset within ~30 minutes of 6pm for 300+ days a year. Cusco actually gets hot, but Bogot
