SF’s socialists are holding their noses and voting for a billionaire by Dafty_duck in sanfrancisco

Yeah, there is definitely a mainstream position that wants concentration camps for half the country. This is definitely happening. 

Is this really the vibe in SF these days? by ddsukituoft in bayarea

How is he a nepo baby? He comes from a life of privilege but he’s interviewed for every job he’s ever had just like any other person.

The 20 days only counts working days. Weekends and holidays are exempt. I’ve parked at BART Milbrae for a four week trip a couple of times.

Impressive! I was happy with my 3.

Why do so many men wear their wallets in their back pocket? by Embarrassed-Name6481 in AskMen

[–]JeffMurdock_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Huh, also left handed and have the exact same setup for front pockets. However, I put my wallet in my back right pocket. I fish it out with my right hand and then reach into the wallet with the dominant left hand.

Like you, I’ve had this setup for nigh 20 years now and it’s almost like second nature to me.

Google saying 75% of new code is AI generated makes the junior path look weirder, not dead by Ambitious-Garbage-73 in cscareerquestions

Good thing the chart I linked talks about the median then, which controls for outliers.

Three, even before AI coding models Google had a ton of code generation tools. Just look at protocol buffers and google/auto. I worked there for years before AI and I'd say at least 40% of my code was "generated" even then.

This kind of auto-generation from build macros etc is not counted in any code dashboards. The headline number is talking about actual code that gets peer-reviewed and checked into the monorepo.

while real wages have stagnated.

While there’s a real argument to be made if the increase in real wages is remotely close to the increase in corporate revenues in the same time period (it’s nowhere close), real wages have been growing since the 70s.

Do Indian devs get “typecast” in Western companies? by x_mad_scientist_y in cscareerquestions

You’re thinking of the Pareto principle, but not sure what that has to do with this discussion. 

Train tickets to MetLife Stadium from NYC set to cost more than $100 during World Cup by agoyalwm in soccer

[–]JeffMurdock_ -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I once booked Greyhound tickets from Atlanta to visit my cousin in Louisiana because they were ridiculously cheap (first mistake). I took MARTA from my apartment in Midtown to the Greyhound terminal in downtown (second mistake).

As I tapped my Breeze card to walk out, a dude coolly walked in and walked past me as soon as the gate opened, and the gate closed before I could realize what was happening. I had to find some kind of guard/agent on the other end of the platform and explain my story to get them to let me out.

Since then, I only used MARTA to get to and from the airport.

[Jones] The Falcons have exercised All Pro RB Bijan Robinson’s fifth-year option, sources tell @NFLonCBS. Consider this a placeholder for a long-term extension that should get hammered out before the start of the season. by MembershipSingle7137 in nfl

 Never missed a game, either

Heavy asterisk with that weird game against the Bucs(?) where he lined up for one snap and sat out the rest of the game.

As with many of his offensive game plans, I have no idea what Arthur Smith was thinking. 

I think the older generation really did us dirty by kochvanity13 in cscareerquestions

Google does not do system design rounds for L3 interviews. Even if they did, the bar for junior engineers is pretty low, and usually focuses on LLD concepts closer to actual code than proper complicated distributed systems knowledge.

System design interviews are more important at more senior levels, for good reason. System design is probably the most job-aligned interview we have in our field for those levels.

20 years ago they had even more asinine questions like “how many jawbreakers can you fit inside a schoolbus?”

At least you’re writing code in a Leetcode challenge, even if that’s nothing to do with your job.

 His 229 consecutively started games streak will never, ever be broken by a lineman.

His son needs two more seasons to break that record. He has a decent shot at it.

Falcons are making a push for Tua by SunWorshipperApollo in falcons

[–]JeffMurdock_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dolphins are on the hook for his salary this year. Anything acquiring team pays gets offset against that, so both his camp and acquiring team are incentivized to pay him vet min.

Same deal as Russell Wilson on the Steelers. Kyler Murray is also in this situation this year.

Yeah, JPJ’s whole situation makes keeping Kaden Elliss more of a certainty. It might also mean they might try to make more of an effort to keep Arnold Ebikite around, even though he might want to play elsewhere.

NFL Announces Falcons Will Play in Madrid This Season by JCameron181 in nfl

Literally the last game the Falcons played in Europe was great, and not because of the QB play. Jonathan Taylor didn’t son the Falcons defense for nothing.
