Ooh, I like this idea. You could also use the box structure to stretch the display so it has 4 sides if you build the mechanism correctly, which means as you refresh the image on the "primary" display it moves the other images to

Okay, so the issue is less Greenhouse specifically, and more generally applicant tracking systems (ATS) in general. Fair enough, I have found pretty much the same, direct internal referrals are the best way to go. Networking is about more

This basically aligns with my thoughts on this as well. With a human interviewer the company is indicating some level of seriousness by having a person they are paying invest at least an equal amount of time in the interview that you are i

As a "remote work booster" who has been remote since 2015, I have absolutely no problem with a company hiring engineers and other staff in other countries at a lower rate, as long as they're hiring people who are competent.

I live in Denver, I don't believe this article is true. I just got a renewal offer where they wanted to raise my rent by 30%. I have generally negotiated this down with my landlord (Greystar), but I also am well aware and they'r

Depends on the company, but in my experience that is not true. VP is the first executive level. Directors are middle management.

And this is why I have an Olympus Pen-F in one pocket and my iPhone in the other pocket. I love my iPhone, and I use it for taking snapshots day-to-day like receipts for my expense report, but any time I care about capturing something I se

Yes, I've made it with Calvados and also with French pear brandy, which was pretty good, but Calvados and Applejack aren't exactly the same. Calvados is done with "cider apples" and Applejack was done with "eating

Man, I hate what the web has become in 2025. There is absolutely no respect from frontend developers for their users. It's obscene the amount of wasted CPU cycles, energy, battery life, bandwidth, and time we have in aggregate due to

I think it's odd to devalue the time of someone who is helping you achieve more. That's definitely not a charitable way to treat people, nor is it the way I think about secretaries and assistants, regardless of their gender. Whi

I think you are mistaken, because you have made a category error. The work of a personal secretary or an assistant isn't merely to book you an airline ticket or manage your calendar. These are part of it, yes, but not the entirety an

Yes, borrowing on margin is a really good strategy, although it depends on your broker how that functions. I've had a good experience using this for smaller amounts, but given market volatility I'm concerned about borrowing this
