I'd go even further and say the 25-54 year old workforce participation rate is a better metric, since the regular workforce participation rate is influenced by demographic changes (i.e. the baby boomers retiring). https://fr

You should sell your RSUs on rest and diversify. If you don't diversify and something happens to your employer, your could lose your job, the value of your home could go down, and your investment could lose a substantial amount of val

I find it very concerning, using a checklist seems like common sense.

Depending on the mortgage rate, it might be better to keep it and invest the money that would have been used to pay off the mortgage instead.

Just move to Seattle instead. 0% state income tax, rent is half of SF, and the tech salaries aren't that much lower.

Get a degree. It is so much easier to get a job, and you are more likely to complete it since you have skin in the game. Go to an in-state school with a good CS and Engineering program if you can. Also you can consider going to community

Same thing with home ownership.

Yep. That's like the only difference between it and PayPal.

I had the exact same experience living for a year in Seattle without a car. I saved some money, but I didn’t want to go anywhere.

Cost of living is bad, and it takes an entire day to get back to the mainland.

I really like this idea. I still have cable, but mostly for background noise. When I’m doing something else, I don’t want to have to pick something specific on the TV.

Because they also give you a sign bonus in two parts, a lump sum for the first year, and the second year it is divided between the 12 paychecks. After two years, both the bonus and relocation have vested.

Best tool ever. The custom touchpad gestures are great, too. You can do stuff like three-finger swipe up/down to switch to previous/next tab, and rotate right/left to open/close taps.

The drivers are being paid more per ride than riders are paying for a ride. Let's say an Uber ride costs a passenger $10, and the driver is paid $15. Uber loses $5.

It's probably a page on the internal Wiki that the S3 team follows for that particular task. Most the actual steps are probably automated, but it sounds more like a checklist. I used to follow runbooks/playbooks written on the in
