My immediate thought was of imminent domain destroying houses and running highways through poor neighborhoods. Curious to see which cities/areas you’re allowed to fly the “less noticeable” boom over.

Seems like you missed the point of the article. The author is saying that if you treat the class/lesson as a means to an end only where the goal is to get a diploma then you’re not actually getting an education. If you’re using an LL

The numbers in the article don’t add up, it uses different terms like “sector” and “industry” in meaningful ways when there is no actually meaningful difference and ends with the sentiment that it’s actually lookup up.

Ai that solves problems we have right now and under promises and over delivers. Right now I feel it’s mostly over promising solutions to gee-wiz things nobody needed.

Pay me $10k and I’ll train you up to get a (mobile) FAANGy job in a couple months. Paying for the referral you’re not getting much.

Understanding Postmodernism. I know there are deeper books out there on the subject but this was accessible and opened the door to many other deeper books of thought that continue to shape me.

I clicked through to buy this book for future reference and discovered it was the guy I paid as a negotiation coach for my last job. It was expensive but extremely worth it, I’d do it again at 2x the price. Strong recommendation for Josh.

My theory is they want more than they pay for. They want to pay you the salary for Level X while you work hard to get to Level X+1

Two things to consider when thinking on your points: On no initiatives to get straight men into HR, is there a great clamoring to get into the field of HR, or nursing (the other often cited example), do you perceive them as high prestige or

I think the op is just referring to the two words as “boogeymen” not always realistic descriptors. I bet back in the red scare silly things were decried as communist too.

These same people also want to see your GitHub history filled with deep green come review time. I start to wonder if they think high levels of GitHub activity is a proxy of performance or if it’s a proxy of plying the game the way they ins

> Are you suggesting that UHC breaks the law? If yes, why is the answer to that not a trial in a court of law? This is an incredibly intellectual dishonest take on how large corporations break the spirit of laws if not the letter.

I just finished several months of preparing for and doing (and failing) interviews, it was only adter i spent a month of Leetcode 8+ hrs a day that I started doing well and getting good offers. I also hated the game, I’ve been in software

Do you feel it is a business’ right to “survive” to the detriment of citizens? Further is this even “survival”? Is there a right to a certain amount of profits in the face of damage to citizens? Dumping waste in rivers is more cost effect

If you haven’t read Daniel Suarez’s book Daemon, this features prominently and somehow seems neat there but creepy here :)

Making a claim with no references to back it up doesn’t require doubters to provide evidence to the contrary.

100% likely depends on what you’re doing but I work in FAANGY tech and if anything CS majors lag behind people with real work experience, any real work experience. DA&A is not relevant to writing a CRUD app or service. It’s not releva

I’ve stayed at all my jobs for too long (6+ years) and regretted it every time. I have been promoted but the pace is glacial. Upon reflection the right time to leave was always 2-3 years earlier, usually right after a promotion rather tha

What is the alternative for a networked speaker system that “just works”? And I don’t mean “just works most of the time” I mean really just works out of the box for my non-tech brother and in-laws?

Aside from how you define “pleasant” there is a considerable vibe difference, SF feels more cosmopolitan and SJ more metropolitan. No judgement either way, pros and cons to both.

The (a) problem here is what the 57-70% is, it’s something like “performance mobile device in the US”…. It’s not some smoking gun of “all mobile phones globally”, or even in the us, or even all mobile phones.

It’s that weird grip recruiters have on the pipeline once again. I was applying for a mobile client role and was told I didn’t have “AI ML experience” so I was disqualified… for a mobile client role. I guarantee you the hiring manager doe

When did the fee ever have anything to do with those things? Not sure which argument logic trap that is but I’m sure somebody can correct me :) It is their platform, they can charge what they want. Epic is going to charge as much as they
