cash back to the user is a cut of the affiliate revenue/commission they get for the sale. this is commonly how all third party ecommerce cash back programs work (honey, klarna, etc.) the video explains how honey has the same thing but

not sure if that's correct - i think the user has to click on something in the honey popup for them to overwrite the affiliate cookie. outright stealing everything would be too brazen and would probably get noticed by competing program

I kind of like this idea? There's too much toxicity in online gaming these days and yes I know it's always been around I'm old and have played online since Halo 2 but it seems like people get more tilted and angry these days

This Is Important It's just the Workaholics guys podcast where they riff on whatever for an hour but I just relate to them and their sense of humor a lot being around the same age and their nostalgic angle of the 90s/2000s on ever

firefox definitely had tabbed browsing and private mode before chrome was released. pretty sure opera had tabbed browsing as well. i just recall chrome being very minimal, clean and fast when it was first released. plus as kreeben said, Goo

"...of which approximately two-thirds used it daily" it's not insane tech but it's not like it's not being touched either.

why is shipping code more important than practicing leetcode though if your goal is to get a FAANG job? if you're struggling to find even a non-FAANG job but no one wants to work with you - perhaps you aren't as good as you think

col in florida is so low though plus no state income tax right? 100k in orlando is like 220k in sf so you're probably doing alright.

Location is a factor but also tech salaries have seen tremendous continued growth over the last 20 years. new grads are getting jobs at FAANGs out of college starting at 150-200k+ tc these days. granted these are mostly in higher col areas

rocket league is a competitive esport game, WoW is an ever-evolving MMO, and the Skate series are just the deepest skateboarding sims that exist I think. Nothing wrong with continuing to play those type of games forever. I've been play

200k salary or total comp? four years is a decent chunk of time im sure youve done fine since then dont beat yourself up over it - most startups arent really worth joining for the upside potential at IPO or acquisition anyway.

my main complaint is watching videos on desktop web or the mobile app - there's no way to control play/pause/scrubbing. you just have to sit through it and if you miss any of it, watch it again from the start. same goes for t

if you're gonna game on a Mac, i'd suggest installing windows via bootcamp. ime most games simply run better that way anyway and you don't have to deal with the issue of games that aren't MacOS compatible.

you sound like a great engineer and mind, there's no reason to think you couldn't pass these bars. try again - there's randomness and variance to the interview process. most FAANG engineers did not get in on their first tries

IdeaVim in intellij isn't too bad, it even reads your .vimrc (just source ~/.vimrc in a ~/.ideavimrc file) and while it doesnt have much in terms of vim plugin support, the basic vim vocabulary is there which has been good en
