How about Netflix has this user created content like YouTube. It’s free with ad supported but for users who has paid plan the ads are removed. I would keep a paid account if the user created content in Netflix becomes popular like YouTube!

I have T-Mobile pays for the very basic Netflix as part of the deal. I just canceled the ultra HD package ($11+) more a month. There is no way I could outright get rid of Netflix so I just stuck with the basic account for now.

So, if I spent 1000+ hours playing Falcon 4 and IL2-Sturmovik, would they classify me as "no idea how to fly"? I mean I have never control a plane in real-life but I wouldn't have much difficulty following flight instruction

Raises price every year, stops password sharing (within family), trashes contents. My nightly routine becomes surfing Netflix one title at a time, 10-15 minutes a title for about 40 minutes until I give up and just rewatch old shows, movies

I played Assassin Creed Origin (ACO) few years ago, the 1st AC game I felt really immersed in. I played the AC1 back in the early 2000s but it didn't click for me. ACO is different: totally open world. You could climb anywhere, even to

I have daily standups with 2 teams. Weekly status reports writing. BiWeekly sprint planning with weekly sprint retro. Weekly 1-1 with manager and one coworker (I don’t know why I). Weekly knowledge sharing session. Daily project statuses (b

Me: dying for a hundred times at the same spot. I just wish those "soul" games are more accessible to mortal like me. I'm an avid gamer (FPS) but those games are taking a toll in my confidence. Playing them feels like doing a

You could try FB marketplace. I have seen MSRP floating around for quite the last few months. I haven’t purchased one really because most of my friends are either on PS4 or Xbox 1

For me LinkedIn now become a platform to announce job change, how grateful they are with current employer.

I’m not sure how stop eating Chinese food would help. You seem confuse between the CCP and the normal Chinese folks.

I also notice someone mentioned iCloud+ as an alternative. I have an apple ecosystem at home so this would make the most sense for me.

Thank you for your suggestion. I have now paid for G workspace for a month so that I could migrate. I am the only user and not using any other products of G suite. Fast mail seems to be the best option for me.

That interviewer behavior is borderline abusive.

I appreciate your candid feedback about the OP's attitude at work. Especially, I like it when you, as an SDM, agree that majority of the people will be "average" and as long as they don't wreck-havoc the team, they shoul

wow, didn't know this existed. I've been using ipython as shell-ish replacement for not-so-serious-thing. I need to take a detail look at this from my initial glance over. thanks

I run regularly now for 3-4 years. What surprises me is that I feel like I’m more fit than I was 10-15 years ago even at an older age.

I work for a FAANG and 11 years ago, there was no such thing as paternity leave. I ended up taking 2 weeks PTO vacation to help my wife and bought enough time to get her from my mom in law. Recently, the company gets more generous with pate

Ha! Are you me? I'm also learning to play the piano for the last 2 years. I play almost the easiest pieces of J.S.B like minuets or simpler arias and sarabande. Just like you, I printed the sheets out and annotate the heck out of it: n

I learned programming in my teenage age with Pascal. Sometimes I wonder about this too: typed, compiled, no garbage col, pointer arithmetic. With TUrbo Pascal I have the entire IDE and a compiler in single floppy.

Is Netflix the only big tech that doesn’t have promotion circuses to a higher title? I know they only have Senior SWE and Director of SWE. I honestly don’t think they have Staff or PE. Though, I bet there should be hugely disproportionate p

I’m sorry to hear this. Please take care of your health, mentally and physically. Management usually promotes folks showing “visions” rather than those who keep their head down and make sure the plumbing works smoothly. It’s a sad state.

Hah, one of the company starts with A? The process is designed to frustrate engineers at best. Documents often require tons of copy paste from previous docs. At least in my org, it will be mulled and pestered over for rewrite at least 5+ ti

They are lucky to have you as manager. I tried talking directly about my promo for 2 years now with various managers. It’s not that I wanted to hop teams but the management turn over is so frequent, I end up having 3 managers in 1.5 years.

I am in the same boat except my coworkers are not millionaires or so but they all got promoted and I am stuck with my role for 5 years now.

Is it just me: I used pipenv before knowing poetry. Pipenv mostly fits the bill. Then, everyone was talking about poetry so I gave it a try but the experience wasn’t that great. It’s either doing what pipenv could do or running into issues
