That would be a stronger argument if people were facing implementation deficiencies in git

How does this help me as a user of git?

The side effect of stronger employment protection is limited upside and more friction in getting into new positions.

What courage and integrity is being demonstrated here?

How much time do you spend talking to people about hiring you? The leetcode and system design can FEEL productive but it’s 2 steps removed from what you want and what’s probably uncomfortable.

This. Gender roles run deep, even here. I don’t think comments would appreciate a man complaining his wife only made 1/4 as him.

How can you be a director and be applying for jobs like a 22 year old?

Surely this is the end of Zuck?

> He cannot escape who he is. One of the best CEOs in the world with about 20 years of experience at age 40? And also founded the company? He’s doing pretty good. And if you’re talking about “image” he is a millennial archetype.

Yep, those numbers agree with my comment. Note that also includes QA in those numbers and roles which are not software engineer.

by monkeyelite 1y ago
My claim is about US salaries for software engineering roles. Please share your stats.
72.
by monkeyelite 1y ago
No. What happens is you accept employment and terms you would not previously consider.

You’re telling me you don’t live in America. But also you know better about salaries and standards of living in America.

Yes, it’s just very clear who the responsibility to succeed is on. And the only one to blame for failure is yourself.

With placement new you need to hold on to the pointer. If you need to get an object back out of a buffer you need launder. Std::vector needs launder.

Yes, and to get that nice feature you have to pay an enormous cost.
77.
by monkeyelite 1y ago
In software? Yes - no matter which part of the country. Maybe a few hold outs in the 90k.

People forget that finding a job is a sales problem. All the other stuff - interviews, resumes are just sales tools. Imagine trying to find customers only by cold emailing.

I’m with you on the first part. They should have capitalized. If there was a union there would be no boom to capitalize on.

> next 10-15 years or so That’s a long enough tech career to retire. I don’t know you, but I know that even 65 year olds with 6 million in the bank are nervous to retire.

And all of that is made easier by having more income.

I suppose if you are including European and Indian salaries and American students? But upper middle class students are literally temporarily embarrassed millionaires.

> "Homeless" is not the same as "living on the street" The word is being used to invoke that image.
84.
by monkeyelite 1y ago
Normal functioning adults do not easily become homeless. There are several drops in lifestyle you have been accustomed to, before that happens.

Your use of nepotism is actually reputation.

Do you see all the concepts you had to describe here? > Unless you are a low-level systems developer it is unlikely to affect you. Making new data structure is common. Serializing classes into buffers is common.

by monkeyelite 1y ago
I absolutely agree - your chain of reasoning follows as well. It doesn't seem like it at first, but the often praised constructor/destructor is actually a source of incredible complexity, probably more than virtual.
88.
by monkeyelite 1y ago
The complexity argument is just not true. You do have to know this stuff in c++, you run into it all the time. I wish I didn’t have to know about std::launder but I do

It looks like a far smarter approach than async/await

I don’t think someone can revoke your gpl licensed software you already have.
