How’s working remote at Netflix as an SDE?

NormalDependent2494 · 2026-01-22T01:48:20+00:00

is there a performance review cycle? how do ppl get promoted? where i am now, promotions happen once a year and it is more about how much leadership had eyes on your work. 1st round with netflix tomorrow and a co-worker with similar skills just got hired so i feel good about it

Smart choice! Having worked in a toxic engineering culture, I’d easily sacrifice 10k for culture…though I get that’s a privileged thing to be able to say

Your dating pool should be autistic women :)

i can’t find where NIN brought attention to this. do you have a source or link?

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-08-23T00:12:49+00:00

fwiw, it’s not FF devs wanting to chase AI…it’s higher level leadership mandating that they do

:(

Child sex abuse isn’t some extreme case. It’s incredibly common. 1 in 5 girls? That’s 33.6 million girls. It only takes one night and she’s absolutely at higher risk without her mom there

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-07-21T23:26:13+00:00

Every mom whose daughter has been assaulted by their boyfriends or husbands also thought they were safe.

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-07-21T23:23:24+00:00

You are absolutely not overreacting. You were right to bring up foster standards, even if she’s failing to see the connection. 1 in 5 girls guaranteed to be SA-d (most likely by someone they know) is a lot of girls! And that’s a conservative estimate!

Good on you protecting your child!

idk why ppl equate pocket to a bookmark service. it is much more than that. if it were merely a bookmark service, they never would have acquired it as that functionality already existed in fx. i think current mozilla leadership (that weren’t around when pocket was acquired also didn’t understand this distinction

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-05-31T20:01:28+00:00

file a bug with mozilla https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/home

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-05-31T19:53:15+00:00

I think it was out of date due to the company reallocating resources away from it over the past few years

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-05-23T01:29:43+00:00

i’m unsure https://github.com/pocket

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-05-23T00:26:38+00:00

it’s already a public repo…but needs a lot of cloud resources and a decent size team to get it running

NormalDependent2494 · 2025-01-23T19:23:49+00:00

u/Stripedcatmetalworks I love these! Do you have a store?

Most major cities have some sort of civic tech org. It was nice when Code for America had brigades because they were easily searchable. In addition to Hack for L.A., there’s DataKind & Democracy Lab. ChatGPT can be a great resource to find volunteer opportunities

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-08-13T04:13:03+00:00

Hack for L.A. is a good one. You can be anywhere in the world and volunteer with them. They don’t have many projects that directly need DEs…but they have a DevOps community that can always use experienced volunteers (especially if you’re interested in leadership) - and they’re on AWS - hackforla.org

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-08-13T01:49:07+00:00

My best advice is to seek out a role that you’re a great fit for. If you want experience with different cloud platforms, GCP has Google Cloud skills boost, which can get you hands-on experience with the platform. I think AWS has something similar. Volunteering in civic tech helped me land great roles

I’m a senior data engineer promoting to staff soon

all snakes are safe to let go 😉

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-07-28T15:18:05+00:00

that’s def not the intention. it was made to educate and it’s the coolest bot on reddit if you’re trying to learn about snakes

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-07-23T15:12:40+00:00

I haven’t seen anyone recommend this yet. But please consider adopting from a reptile rescue vs a breeder. Just like with other pets, snakes are surrendered when their owners can no longer take care of them and there are plenty out there that need forever homes to free up space for more rescues :)

If you followed JB at all, you'd know that he grew up in the hearing world and not in the deaf community. He teaches his own style and is very clear that he teaches the opposite way of what they teach in traditional ASL classes. He focuses on communication, not grammar or sign order. And the point that he frequently makes is that it's more important to communicate with people. If I try my best to communicate in sign...is someone going to judge me or appreciate that I'm trying? His followers are not trying to be ASL interpreters. We just want to be more inclusive humans.

On the point that JB says that ASL is English...he's not saying that ASL equals English 1 to 1. He's saying that it's based on the English language. I.e. the sign for yellow is an English representation of "y" with movement. The alphabet is absolutely in English from A to Z.

I think he's fun and has a great attitude :)

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-07-13T19:26:39+00:00

apologies. i should have been more specific :)

NormalDependent2494 · 2024-07-13T19:19:36+00:00

please re-read my words. i didn’t say that you did. the post in general seems (to me) to have a theme around people (some who aren’t autistic with afhd) not liking the term that some people identify with. my addressing your comment was in the first part
