Have you ever interviewed at Google? They care about syntax, psuedocode will not cut it in the interviews... and Google has a lot of strong programmers.

"Water is almost guaranteed death" But let's say you are still strapped to your airplane seat, or you can grab hold of another large object and ride it. Are your chances of surviving better landing in water or on ground?

I noticed it 2 days ago and no option to change it back. It really sucks when doing CTRL+F to search for stuff. Please give us an option to turn pagination off.

Tech center of the world with a 1970's subway system that sucks in more ways than one (hurts your ears inside and out, dirty, not on time, not many stops, frequent maintenance issues, etc.).

Low barrier to entry, crowded space, and low margins...can't imagine this company (or any of the small guys) still being around 5 years from now.

just fyi- when you apply for a mortgage, you are asked to provide the most recent 2 years of W2s. So total comp does help in securing a loan.

Yes this is the Bay Area only. Plus UK is known to have far lower salaries than the U.S. in any industry basically.

by toephu2 10y ago
Yes. It makes them feel good about themselves showing they have a higher salary than others. Even anonymously, would you want to report your under average salary? I mean you could, but would you take the effort to create a throwaway account

Give up trying to beat the market, just call it a day and invest in a S&P 500 index fund. Hedge funds and money managers that get paid $1m+/year can't even beat the S&P 500 in the long run (20+ years). The only one that ha

Gemini hasn't even been around for more than 2 years.. I check bitcoinwatch every now and then, and the biggest exchanges always disappear soon or later. I haven't seen anything (for USD) in that top 10 list for over a year (maybe

I haven't seen a single bitcoin exchange that is stable and trustworthy enough to put your money in (Mt. Gox used to be the biggest and most reputable and we all know how that turned out). Converting from your real currency in to and o

You think preparation alone can get you in the Big4? Obviously you are very smart if you passed every single one of their interviews multiple times. Hard work alone won't get you there. Just curious, so where do you work now?

by toephu2 10y ago
Unless you're near genius-level smart. Then you will easily get offers from all the big4 w/o much prep.

I don't understand how we can build self-driving cars, send people to the moon, and create advanced facial recognition software, but can't build technology that can separate plastic bags?

The problem is what happens when that money runs out? It will be very hard to get back in the tech job market. Things move so fast you will be obsolete in 2 years.

You're saying getting in Google has nothing to do with intelligence? Have you gotten an offer from the Big4?

Yes you can bet the farm that if he interviews at Google, Facebook, Uber, Amazon, Dropbox, etc. they will all whiteboard his ass (if he even gets an interview --because of his age). They don't give a f' who you are or what you did

And how many of those are there? Do you think many uber drivers can afford to go overseas? Yes a few, but I doubt it's a high number. This is just a PR stunt.
