Oh sure, but that's not necessarily Proton's market - that's what I'm pointing towards. There's a group of folks who are both most likely to use a password manager, and also don't necessarily want that password

1 there really requires you to be all-in on an ecosystem though. Have an iPhone but use Windows/Linux? Doesn't really matter how good iCloud is if you can't get it to sync your passwords easily to half of your devices. I susp

I don't think you necessarily disagree with them. The issue is most people don't have the option to find a position that's a good fit. Or you find out the companies with a mission you're passionate about have a work cult

The other aspect of it is that with a big company, it's often much more about choosing what is valuable to work on vs. just doing everything you can put your hands on. Large organizations generate large numbers of requests and suggesti

Oh for sure, but I think the GP's "you can't really be a good manager in a bad org" is generally true on the long term. Either the org crushes you into being a bad manager, or you're pushed out. The odds are that a

The difficulty becomes that, in a bad organization, a good manager can easily get stuck unable to both be a good leader to their team and be a good manager as seen by the organization. I've had multiple managers fired/reassigned b

The tradeoff is that the Framework's battery life is garbage . I had laptops a decade ago with 2x the battery life. I'm lucky to get 3 hours of battery doing web browsing, and standby/hibernate on the Intel processor in it i

That's actually a good example - The early seasons aren't necessarily worse because of the end of the show, but it definitely killed a few spinoff shows HBO was planning, and also killed the Star Wars movie that the showrunner

I'm not sure if the OP meant it, but there's a decided different in my mind between "murdering" a series and "ruining" it. A bad new entry doesn't make the old ones worse, but it may effectively foreclose

I'm implying it somewhat, since if you're "looking for ownership, interest in our customers/mission/long-term" and getting involved in what you see as "career-defining creations", then that's a r

Every interview is "Demonstrate you meet the hiring criterion, get $XYX/year". It's not as if I reject everyone who doesn't arrive at the perfect solution, but I do need to get some signal that even if they don&#x27

Sure. Obviously there's exceptions, and I mostly haven't worked anywhere where that's been an issue, but you also know what you're in for if you're interviewing somewhere that size. It's a very different proces

by noirbot 3y ago
I certainly understand the stakes for you in making the right hire, but you're fundamentally much less invested in the candidate than you seem to be asking them to be in you. At the end of the day, you can reject them and pick someone

It depends on the questions - I don't feel like I've often gotten bad answers when I've asked and I know I try my hardest to be as honest as possible when candidates ask me hard questions about my position. If I get red flagg

It definitely can, but I've been asking one of my questions for almost a decade at this point, and I've seen nearly every attempt at a solution that anyone would come up with. Often the difficulty is that the candidate is working

I do think I'd mark it against someone if I reserved 10-15 minutes at the end of an interview and they didn't have anything at all they wanted to know about the job or the company. I'm not expecting them to have a laundry lis

Yea, I've had a similar issue happen to me. Was interviewing at a small-mid company that I was increasingly interested in and passionate about, and had really delved into with various interviewers to learn about their business and what

by noirbot 3y ago
Yea, I feel like this is also likely an issue. You can't let yourself run too low because you can't for-sure get a charger quickly if you don't have one at home. I regularly run down to a sub 10-mile range and less than a hal

I suppose my curiosity there would be if it's a smart idea to buy a car model that's getting discontinued - would it be more difficult to get it repaired in the future? Will it be hard to get replacement parts later?

by noirbot 3y ago
Yea, it's what I'd have to do, I suppose, but it would mean driving to a grocery store 2-3 times further away, and my average trip to the store these days is only 10-20 minutes which I doubt is long enough for a full charge. My of

Yea, there was a brief experiment with smaller stuff 5ish years ago, but that seems to have dried up hard and left us with 2-ton trucks and SUVs or high end luxury sedans being the only options in the US for EVs. Seems like there may be 500

by noirbot 3y ago
The cost is a big issue for me still. I get it, but I paid $15k for a car 10 years ago - small hatchback that's been more than enough for my needs. The only options I have for EVs are either 2-3x the size (Rivian, F150, Model X) or 4-5

Yea, one of the current ironies is that the folks most able to use/charge an environmentally friendly car are the people living in environmentally unfriendly single-family homes. I've yet to see an apartment complex with more than

Would you like to give an actual example of a subreddit you're banned from because you were posting in some other subreddit? Or evidence that that's happening to the average reddit user? I certainly believe it happens, but the tim

Legitimately curious - do you have any evidence that the average reddit account is banned from multiple subreddits all the time? I've had multiple accounts I've been using for years with hundreds of posts/comments and as far

I'm always so curious what subreddits all the people on here who seem to feel like they're engaged in some war against the man are getting banned from. I was mostly using reddit for talking about like... coffee and cocktails and

The difference with Voat, to my mind, is that it mostly took the outflow of a sub-set of users who were aggrieved by Reddit at the time. This meant that it grew well, but was a more specific niche instead of having a broad base of users. Wh

Yea, with what they charge, I'd be surprised if it was as low as 400 mil. I've seen mid-sized companies with 8-figure Databricks contracts.

I'm not putting words in your mouth - you literally referenced Oliver Twist as an analogy for the user's relationship with Discord with us begging for more slop. > 'Please, sir,' replied Oliver, 'I want some more

Sure, but the long-horizon pessimism is back to what I was saying re: isn't that just being pessimistic about capitalism writ large? I don't think that's a wrong position to take, but it doesn't feel healthy or helpful t
