Looking Beyond the shitty title that doesn’t tell you why it’s “unique” until you click the link (and it is not unique anyway), I can’t imagine this tool will provide consistent value for a user. Sure, every now and then, you’ll want to tra

Anyone that agrees to doing the work of the level above you before getting promoted is agreeing to be exploited. They want you to do this because they know there’s enough suckers. Don’t be a sucker.

Wow, just watched a clip and was reminded of my time on my high schools varsity bowling team in 2001. Long story short, I was cut from the team because I used this exact technique of not putting my thumb in the hole. The coach’s verdict wa

That “government employee doesn’t get paid enough to attract talent” trope has to die. I work with many government employees that are not beholden to the government pay scales and get special exemptions to be compensated “at market rates.”

This was quite prescient of you. At first (hours before they confirmed the debris was from the sub), I thought your comment was a stretch, but still plausible- yet impossible to prove. All too often, we dismiss these conspiratorial hypothes

The guy did his best to present facts he knows to be true. Your comment comes off as entitled, as if he owes you more. He wasn’t the first person to say what he said in the video, so if you want sources, you can Google it yourself.

… and you’re comparing to what alternative? To take even more time out of the day to meet these people face to face? Zoom is more convenient by a mile.

I went to my state school under a low income program (EOF, Educational Opportunity Fund). I found all resources available to me as valuable, and I wouldn’t have graduated on time had it not been for their services. I’m generally a cynical p

It was at a crypto trading platform who gave me a verbal offer, and then a month later tried to pull a fast one and wrote down an offer 50% less than what was discussed. When I probed, they responded “it’s out of my hands, leadership change

It's not just Google. As a non-Tech non-Indian that previously worked at AmEx, I was shocked to see how many indians there were at AmEx. I was even more shocked to learn that they discriminate based on caste.
