Attrition for a company that pays in the 95% percentile is going to be much lower than the industry average, especially when most of the other companies in that pay tier have also stopped hiring.

Insulfated cocaine has a unique problem in that it first needs to be diluted in water in order to properly test, then somehow dried back out into powder before it can be used. It’s fairly cumbersome and removes a lot of the appeal of the dr

You dilute in water, test, then dry back out into powder every bit of cocaine you use?

Everyone I know who recreationally does cocaine is scared to continue because of the risk of fentanyl contamination.

Someone should start a company that will let you transfer your mortgage to a new property for a flat fee. People would be lining up down the block to hand over their money.

I thought the group this year was actually one of the better ones I can remember, but this one was the worst of the lot.

I found it to be saccharine and uninspired. Every line felt like some platitude you would find written on a faux distressed wooden sign at HomeGoods. I see the animated shorts every year and it’s consistently my least favorite one that wins

Is it thought? The shareholders of SVB are going to lose out big. The message this is sending to bank owners and investors is “the government may bail out your customers but you will lose everything.”

Creating all but the most basic of forms with plain html/css/js is loaded with footguns too. Add in conditional fields, multi-page flows, loading and error states, etc then it becomes clear why solutions like React were created an

I find the only way it’s workable is you write a ton of unit tests that essentially mimic a compiler.

I do it because it’s a social norm. I’m sure you also do illogical and inefficient things solely because your culture dictates it, weather you realize it or not. And some restaurants are starting to implement a standard service fee, it’s mo

I’ve implemented a personal policy to make it easier for myself and reduce bias: Full waiter experience (seated, handed menu, food brought to table, plate cleared) gets 20%. If the level of service is less than that, the percentage starts t

I’ve lost (and kept off for a few years) 20+ lbs a couple times in my life. Each time by rigorously logging calories and less rigorously doing strength training and running. I’ve found myself again in a position where I want to lose about 2

Bicycling will get your legs absolutely shredded. Bouldering/rock climbing is really good whole body muscle conditioning.

Hey I’m just going to throw it out there - it’s weird and kinda creepy for an adult to follow a non-relative teenager on social media for just about any reason.

I would guess that this theory applies average codebases of average complexity and quality. Chrome, popular compilers, popular operating systems skew towards the highest end of quality and developmental rigor.

Yeah but if that aspect of the data hasn’t changed then the chart is still useful for seeing trends, and the rate is the lowest since at least 2007.

“productivity is abysmal which is understandable. The mess is just too huge to be able to build anything. This business unit has a pretty aggressive roadmap…” Sounds to me like it doesn’t work.

I’m guessing a lot of the people in here bashing this attitude towards work are employed in tech jobs with good salaries, high levels of autonomy, and company stock options. I don’t think this article is geared towards people who have it th

You only need these people on your side if their opinion is actually the majority opinion. Often minority opinion groups get their way because they turn out and vote in outsized numbers.

Having worked there on several different teams, I can confidently say slacker engineers are not common at fb. They have plenty of systems in place to keep people grinding.

Yeah but the head of engineering doesn’t put out a memo like this if it’s just business as usual. To me this is clearly indicative of the “turning up the heat.”

I’ve been trying to get a RAV4 prime for months but they are impossible to find. People literally fly across the country to try and snag them from dealers. Dealers are often charging 5-7k over MSRP and using the tax credit as justification,

Meta is very skilled at hiring smart, motivated, hard working people - then creating a perverse system of carrots and sticks to get those people to push themselves as hard as they can. I think the only thing that really bothers me about thi
