Big tech has jumped the shark with the 2020 election. They now ascribe to blatant political censorship and propaganda. They have monopoly power and power over our democratic process. They censor what content users get to see and what use

This is why they need to staff up their ranks with foreign workers, for which Facebook has been sued by DOJ. No whistleblowers likely if everyone is under visa review.

https://www.cnbc.com/2020/04/23/wsj-amazon-uses-data-from-th... Don't know why people are downvoting. This is SOP at Amazon. You want to blame me for Amazon's reputation? You want to blame cnbc?

Because then Amazon can't track all your users. Imagine a delivery company uses Amazon's API for its in-truck apps or route planning. Amazon drinks your data, it drinks it up.

Over about 15 years of observing who got in I would say, be a VERY conspicuous leftist. Pretend to be LGBTQ+ as that is very common in the academic world as well as large left leaning institutions such as Google. List your pronouns on Lin

Business siders including HR, marketing, sales, product, execs, managers etc ALL universally don't work Fridays. They (used to) come in for a couple hours then "bunk off" to the bar for lunch and happy hour (starts at 3). I

You are talking about knowledge and trivia recall. I am talking about critical thinking, deductive thinking which does not depend on how much information a person has seen.

If I see fanboyism I immediately lose respect for someone's intelligence. A truly intelligent person is going to have a hard time finding anyone with relative glaringly obvious intelligence. Some people buy into popular intelligence

In my experience people don't have the ability to determine if someone is smarter than themselves. They can detect that someone is a different intelligence level. Most people will react the same to someone with much greater intellige

You mean why shouldn't Facebook hire foreigners in America. One, their motives are because they want slaves that can't rat them out to illegal activites. Two, they "remit most of their paycheck out of the country. Three, if

They pay more because they are a fucking GANG and they are probably paying a cut of that 200k up the chain to the people from their own country.

No it fucking does not. I interviewed with facebook ten days ago. Management cancelled my phone screen and instead I got a generic interview with a foreign manager "where do you see yourself in five years" followed by a reject w

Very suspicious in my mind this happened soon after the Chinese 500-meter FAST telescope came online. Is this what you mean by relying on international partners? Maybe it's time for the US to build a new telescope.

There is a political rat race to control tech companies that gather the most data on all Americans. Facebook has few divisions compared to Amazon which has moved into everything from groceries to medical industry to self driving cars. How

Wow, I didn't know pickers and stowers got PIPs. Obviously you did a smart thing in that you went and got a medical diagnosis. The company would be facing a medical disability lawsuit if they followed through with the PIP/firing

Simple Workflow was pushed hardcore on everyone inside and outside Amazon for years. It's not a very useful service, but they had huge marketing. Obvious to me is their managers thought that if everyone used SWF, then SWF managers wo

Amazon was at least aware enough to recognized that AWS circular dependencies were a bad thing. From what I heard they had to make changes. A big problem is the largest services like S3. If part of S3 were to use DynamoDB and DynamoDB us

Amazon fires between 5-15% of engineers per year. PIP is to get you to quit. Amazon hires a TON of entry level SDE 1 engineers to sacrifice at the altar of Bezos so more shitty employees get to stay. Lifespan of a SDE 1 whipping boy&#x

At amazon, admitting to a problem will guaranteed lead to having to open a COE, correction of error, which means meetings with executives, inevitable "least effective" rating, development plan, scapegoating, PIP, and firing.

No they sell them for money, like the place I worked. They are just so culturally tone deaf that they think its ok for kids because its a "woman" thing and thus, au naturel. Like taking kids shopping for your tampons because it

When you went to buy toilet paper in April, and all the stores said limit 1 per customer instead of making TP $100, that is exactly price controls. Why did they limit 1 per customer? Out of some flawed communist ideals that the authoritie

The 2020 democrat party falls under leftist authoritarian classification, a thin veneer of civil rights and progressive-ism on top of a thick marxist-lenenist regime shadowing the Chinese communist party's single party authoritarianism
