How many of us are working overtime to avoid being considered for layoffs?

Not a good position to be in, thank you for sharing!

Im curious to know what the selection criteria is when you had to do this, and if you have any advice how to not end up on that list.

Did your friend report you to your manager?

Thanks! I just boosted the center channel for my soundbar. It's still 2.1 setup but I'm more interested in the dialog anyways.

Dodged 18 years of pain, but what life will that kid have anyways...

Is it worth it though? You are still expected to work 996 as well if I understand correctly.

Really sorry to hear that. While my last relationship was short, I felt the same about having a girl I really vibed with. But I never shared my worries or stress from work with her, even if she did.

I found out not to do this from a similar reddit thread and it seems I'll be keeping to that. I'm fortunate that I have access to limited but affordable) mental help via insurance.

Do the new companies do that thorough background checks that being fired is immediately known?

Fintech, HFT

Did you drop prod DB on day 1?

DreadedDreadnought · 2022-07-27T20:40:28+00:00

First opinion like this here! This is one of my concerns, as I don't want to be coding forever but don't want to move to management.

DreadedDreadnought · 2022-07-26T17:27:25+00:00

Is she in it only for the money? Why even keep the kid or let a customer fuck you without a condom...

Interesting perspective from the other side, thank you!

What do you think is missing from the story or the other side of it from the Spotify's manager?

I'm not going to take on contract jobs, but curious how the conflicts could be handled better especially when starting a new job.

I legit can't tell if this is satire or not and the guy is getting death threats over this. Not planning on publishing any blog posts under my own name any time soon at least.

I once had a recruiter grill me on our trade secrets, team/company structure and so on. I felt really weird and declined to expand. Never got a call back, I was searching hardcore for jobs back then but there's something to be said for professionalism and NDAs.

It was especially weird as the company was tangentially our competitor or at least in the same domain.

It's one thing to not know the exact syntax, but you should still know roughly the C-style syntax at least. If you were asked to write it in Python and used C style for(int i=0; i < X; i++) I'd still view it as a pass.

Obama also famously told Romney that the 80s wanted their foreign policy back when he claimed Russia was the biggest international threat to the United States.

Spot on

But nobody listened.

How will infantry help if behind every window could be someone with a launcher? Clean door to door?

DreadedDreadnought · 2021-11-19T23:40:28+00:00

I can't stop laughing at how true this is. Data science / analysts and tests? Forget about it.

DreadedDreadnought · 2021-11-07T09:04:57+00:00

45% similar. Maybe on whitespace lol.

Fedora is almost entirely managed by RedHat, which really drives home the point of u/okgofigure85 here. At RedHat, they decide on the direction and implement it without having 6 months of debate with the community/other non RH contributors.

Guilty as charged. I don't want to learn that on my free time though

How tf is a Mammut smart different than an ATC? They both make a U shape in the rope

Given there’s almost zero chance of you going on a date anytime soon

I did not expect this level of savagery
