As an outsider without intimate knowledge any of this could be wrong, but, I’ve been on both sides of the tech and manager relationship and: - there’s a clear problem in how the news that you’d be signed up has been delivered: they haven’t

Resumes are all gonna look the same given the amount of experience grads have. I’d suggest focus on a grad role in a large mega Corp and do a couple of years - they will give you some best practice insights. It doesn’t need to be FAANG it c

I’ve worked across consumer goods (clothing/fashion), retail and law mostly and have seen various industries and to be honest most large companies need software engineers. You may get a lot of legacy in house custom code to manage, or

I tried finding something but couldn’t as well. I considered making a site to track it but the changes are more than just the diff of the words as whole sections can be moved, changed, rearranged.. I think it’s a lot of work.

Coming from a technical background I’m still dumbfounded that this exists. I actually think that the need for algorithmic transparency will result in some industry body that audits closed source code, db schemas and infra/architecture

If there’s no server, what’s this edge reflector role? How do the client updates sync with each other without a server? This seems very interesting

I’ve long suspected consumer willingness to pay _for things they value_ E.g. people pay heaps for entertainment (Spotify, Disney+ etc) It’s about finding the line between whether the individual service is worth x% of their pay check or not

“It has fallen behind rivals in protecting users from tracking and data harvesting” - strange way to say Google relies on tracking to serve the ad industry which it dominates, in order to earn revenue, and therefore whatever they may say do
