> so it's up to the employees themselves to determine what it means to be underpaid You can say that all you want, but at the end of the day it's you that's losing talent.

Mid-level as in high end L4, low end L5. i.e. 1-2 promotions from new grad level you can get to 300k total compensation (including salary, stock, and bonus) from most FAANG. So, yes.

In software engineering? At all companies I've been at or have intimately known about, there have been clear guidelines for promotions and examples to look at. These are medium to large companies. FAANG and non-FAANG. I'm sure you

It's more like: you realize your SO for the past year has been putting in the bare minimum effort into the relationship and decide it's not even worth the conversation.

At the end of the day you were underpaying them, so I'm not sure putting the "blame" on the employee is the right way to frame this.

I don't know. How much time do people put into side projects that make money? 15-20 hours/week? I work 40 hours/week at a Big-N, but if I put another 15-20 hours per week into my current job I'd get promoted extremely qu

It's click-baity because it withholds necessary information in order to get you to click on it. Saying the version number or release date would stop most people from clicking on it, because it matters much less.

And if the ball landed on black instead of red the last time I bet on roulette I'd also be ahead. Performance analysis like this after the fact doesn't really have any relevance unless there was some information missed.

References to adult themes / jokes is common in kids content. It's a nod to the parents in the room who are forced to watch these shows/movies.

There's no reason to think they'll do this, though. You're just wildly speculating. The much more likely scenario is that they say "find a remote position at the company or leave". And they're not so much &quot

For what reason? Arbitrary control? Why does the right think that every government mandate that they don't understand (masks are the big one) are just about arbitrary control over people? It seems like a very common theme.

Those aren't great examples. SpaceX and Tesla absolutely have marketing in the forum of a crazy CEO that makes the news a lot. SpaceX fancy rockets gives him a platform to spew crazy shit all the time and the media loves it. Beats make

In order to mimic muscle wouldn't you need the wires physically attached to your body somehow? Getting leverage with a spandex like material doesn't sound possible.

It certainly seems difficult to prove either side here :). I think I just trigger when someone says something so definitive like "you can't become a grandmaster if you start as an adult". I'm one who has excelled in a ha

Maybe. But it's not a significant enough factor to say "you will not become a grandmaster unless you’re starting out as a child". I'd wager that free time (and overall lack of responsibilities) is the vast vast vast vast

Sure, if you find the required work unfun, then so be it. I get it. I was more talking about the attitude of the person I responded to. They saw someone world class perform and then "stopped trying for any of the harder tricks." I

It's strange to me that so many of you seem to stop when you realize you're so far away from being at the top of the top of the top. I know the chances of me being on the PGA tour or being an Olympic level skier are basically 0%,

For me I feel like a 10 year pre-pay would be worse. I'll forget about the fact that I need to pay for it again in 2031. Yearly at least keeps me on my toes a bit.

The medical research community as a whole is vastly superior at understanding the human body than either you or I. I lean heavily on current medical research consensus to form my views. Those views aren't static. They change over time

Engineering process is still engineering in my book, but if it helps: Firing happens when you have a history of performing below your level. Never for a single process failure.

by yupper32 5y ago
> By that logic, almost no individual failure is a firing offense. That's pretty close to how it should be. That's the core premise of the no-blame post-mortem culture that's great about some companies. As long as you go t
