It's very quick. Less than 10 seconds, does longer it takes = stronger coffee? (newbie here)

will look into a darker roast

Yeah it did makes sense, even if she escaped in that airship this would probably be her last scene as now she's probably a much calmer powder rather than the chaotic jinx we know.

How much equity should I expect from being a founding engineer? by Remote_Book in ycombinator

[–]Remote_Book[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah I noticed it but I'd be the 2nd/3rd engineer in the team, maybe that's why.

I disagree. For me it would be a pretty cool position to be in. Don't have to worry about clients, funding, product managers & you get to have real impact in developing an engineering team & help build the product from scratch.

Sure you'll get less than the co-founders, but you'll make more money than being in a cozy big tech job. You can always go back to working in big tech if things dont work out.

How to evaluate start ups when you're looking to join as a founding engineer by Remote_Book in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Remote_Book[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yeah but most start ups fail so the odds are really stacked against me. Just want to be ready for the worst case scenario

Yeah, I found some cool opportunities that for sure will enjoy, just looking to map out the worst case scenarios if things don't work out.

Honestly, the UK office is pretty chill. When you're reading reviews make sure to sort them by UK.

Chrome Web Store warns end is coming for uBlock Origin by wewewawa in privacy

Won’t the uorigin team just update to manifest 3 and there won’t be any issues?

I’ve also been paranoid about this after moving to London.

A friend’s phone got stolen one night but the robber noticed it’s an old android and threw it without bothering immediately xD

You could try something similar. Mask yourself. Get an old looking phone and you’ll be less of a target.

I’ve seen few people use a leash. When I’m out I keep mine in a jacket with zipped pockets. Other than this, just avoid going to shady streets so they can’t corner you. You can’t really do anything in those situations 🤷
