I interviewed for them 6 months ago. At the time I was super sad that I failed my system design interview, which is what killed my chances. But man oh man am I glad now.

Wages are sticky. Inflation keeps on going up. It's worse.

Administrative bloat in higher education is well known at this point, and it's absolutely a part of where student money is going. All I see is a lot of "mights" in your post.

Not necessarily. I've seen managers that don't have a software engineering background succeed managing teams and even whole engineering departments and products. It will help though if you develop a close relationship with the tec

It's gotten marginally better whenever the NYPD set up traffic stops and impounded all of their ATVs and other street illegal vehicles. But it requires a lot of manual intervention and it doesn't seem to get the attention it deser

Accept that the interview is over, end the interview, provide your feedback as emotionlessly as possible to your recruiter or HR, and then move on. Some might deride it as "tattling" but if someone is behaving in an unprofessional

Enjoyed this one very much. I am hoping to get a blue dial Orient Bambino to wear for my wedding. I've always loved that watch. I'll have to refer to this article to explain the "but why mechanical.." question.

Ahh thank you for the context. I was familiar with the Timnit Gebru incident, but I haven't followed up on it since it happened.

This sounds almost like some version of the broken window fallacy. But there is no way that ~1 million dead Americans from COVID has helped this country economically. Supply chains have been hurt by COVID. Hospitalizations means unproductiv

This is super concerning. With inflation and a contraction in economy, this is looking like the potential for stagflation that we haven't seen since the '70s. EDIT: Not here to fear monger since people are silently downvoting away

I can add another data point. One of my mother's friends works as a travel nurse. I don't envy her lifestyle, but she seems to find that the compensation makes it worth her time.

I was really skeptical of subscribing to Apple TV (an additional streaming service really?) but after watching some of the Apple content I'm a convert. Ted Lasso, Severance, Pachinko, and many more. There's just so much cheap, qui

Similar experience. I was looking up standing desks. Any subreddit related to standing desks were saturated by businesses and their social media reps. While I appreciate that they were upfront, it is getting even harder to get an honest, re

I live in NYC and I probably would've enjoyed this site a lot more before I ended up just shelling for a WeWork membership. But coffee shops, libraries just aren't conducive to getting real work done. I'm more invested in co-

Apple TV doesn't have the same subscriber base. I watch Pachinko, which I think is a critically acclaimed show, but no one is talking about it.

This was more or less my exact same scenario as well. MFA with an old phone number makes account recovery from Google about close to impossible. I had a friend who worked at Google that was able to create a support ticket for me. Before tal

I haven't checked the spoiler. The brute force method is probably to just call incr multiple times. I wonder if there's anything to do with the caching function to get better performance though. Will need to think about it more.

I use Lastpass with my family. The Lastpass plugin for Chrome has been reliable and convenient for everyone. It took a lot of badgering on my part initially, but now everyone is used to the process. For emergency access, I have that stored

There are literally none. I've followed enough of the discourse on this to have verified this. Any valid critique is simply hand waved as Sinophobia.

Jelani Nelson's Advanced Algorithms course that is available on Youtube was great and helped me a lot during my undergrad years. I'm glad to see that Professor Nelson is also in support of not diluting math education in favor of m
