   I switched from development at startups to a solution architecture role at a Fortune 500 and then eventually to a business executive role at the same Fortune 500. Hated working in big company IT and the business role gave me a significantly

   I’m curious how your experience was finding and landing the new job? I’m in a similar position, at a big company for over 10 years after working in startups. I was technical when I got there but over time as I got more immersed in the busin

   I’m convinced that I’m weird somehow because since the start of the pandemic I have very little in person engagement with anyone outside my wife and kids… and I’m totally OK. Most people I know are either seriously bothered by lack of in pe

   I think the way they do iCloud is better than TimeMachine. I have tons of time machine backup drives that have useless junk from the OS and libraries installed but really all I want is my files that are important. iCloud gives a pretty seam

    agree, it’s almost better they didn’t suddenly turn a massive profit, next cycle they’d be in the mess peloton is in.

    I read a lot that Amazon has a challenging culture. Is it just in dev/tech roles or is it a culture thing?

    I think the big issues present in many large companies isn’t democratic coding but interdependent technology architectures and business processes that must rely on centralized planning. In this case speed to market is a challenge due to the

    It’s right there in TFA When he returns and begins pouring the fuel into the jetpack, only then does it register just how dicey this seems, and why jetpacks have been slow to be developed and adopted. Yeah, no thanks.

    In my experience this seems to be a theme with very senior executives - they are very often interested in snake oil and can’t seem to discern snake oil from real medicine.

    I review every single resume and applicant I hire. My experience tells me talent acquisition professionals don’t really know how to match and will often suggest poor matches and not bring forward odd fits with interesting backgrounds. I get

    I almost built my own with Twilio but decided to search first and was surprised to find a service called Burner App. Seems to do the job and fairly priced given what I know about what it costs to acquire a phone number via Twilio. The downs

    I recently found a burner phone number relay service for this reason. Anyone that wants your personal info is almost always user hostile.

    It’s ironic that the article is about people using the study to spread misinformation about the results of the study. Social media users are misrepresenting these findings (on Omicron’s apparent ability to breakthrough vaccine protection)

    That was my reaction, the $12,500 debt should land on Robin’s account not the freelancer. Robin needs to make their own account whole, especially since it sounds like there were other freelancers effected. The freelancer shouldn’t need to p

    ‘I am not a robot’ puts me into a loop instead of getting to the content. Anyone else run into this? I use ad blockers and vpn so I understand why I am asked to prove I’m not a robot but unsure why I can’t get through the test.

    I used to do crossfit and whenever the workout was done I couldn’t do simple math. I don’t think it effected anyone else like that, so always felt like an idiot.

    Can I ask what it’s like after remission and being in your fifties with CD? Practically is CD remission what most would consider normal or do symptoms present?

    I don’t get that. I get an ambitious executive trying to keep metered and in control of their presence and internal state. A routine like this is fairly common among executives. It’s not hard, it’s just choices.
