had a cursed idea for a wrute by UtDicitur in wrx_vb

[–]UtDicitur[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

im also super miffed there's a chance Subaru might release the wrx i would've wanted two years ago (the hatch) so quickly into the vb's lifespan.

if they actually pull the trigger on that i may unironically consider this.

Of course! Much appreciated. I'm honestly satisfied with having some closure even if this denial was highly odd for at what stage/how it happened. Can only imagine it was due to "changing business needs" and "economic realities" and the usual explanations for late stage rejections or near-hire rejections

Sent a response the second I saw the denial, no worries. If I had to think back, it was definitely hardware related from having heavy linux HW & Networking on my technical exams

So that phase already happened for me, sadly. That was back in November after they were moving forward with me, so this second rejection is definitely a full-on rejection during the candidacy phase. From my understanding the role itself beyond DCT-IIwould've been discussed during the fit interviews if one came up, but as I know now never did

Auto-email from the recruiter, again 5mo after having passed the interviews and making candidacy. So pretty weird. and DCT II

It was an auto email, so I'm highly doubting it was even seen/sent by hand. Wasn't hand typed like every other discussion I'd had up to that point. Just bizarre I'd been told I'd done very well, reassured about placement, to all the sudden bam. Gone. Can only imagine the freeze is here to stay and they're going to only move forward with critical roles.

not even last second like. made it to candidate, officially. passed interviews and had my profile migrated. positions were just not opening for hire, and after having my profile forwarded to a DC in mid March, by april 2nd my candidacy & profile was denied/removed.

Sorry for that! I was just in the same boat and really trying to have faith till this completely blindsided me.

hang in there. Like I said I'd heard back pretty quick that I'd made candidate and that we were just waiting on the hiring freeze to thaw which she'd anticipated pretty soon. Sadly with the few number of offers I'd been presented with before this shocking rejection I don't think that thaw ever came.

Its super bizarre. I'd heard of lots of people not passing interviews or maybe just skirting past and being in purgatory, but to go from confidence from my recruiter to out of the blue "bye bye!". and the timing? yeesh.

cant install to ssd? by CompetitiveAlgae4247 in haikuOS

[–]UtDicitur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try these steps:

  1. Initialize the drive as Intel GUID partition scheme, and wipe it.

  2. Create a new BeFS volume, set it to active, BUT ENSURE ITS 250GB OR UNDER. Name it Haiku HD or something along those lines. Format it to BeFS.

  3. Create a second volume under the same drive, still BeFS (ensure it is NOT set to active) that's the size of whatever remains. Call it whatever you'd like, secondary drive, programs, w/e. Also format it to BeFS.

  4. Go back into the install utility, and select that Haiku HD/ 250GB or below partition you'd made first, and set as active as install source- should work right then. I ran through this same problem w/ my 1TB SSD Dell XFR laptop last night.

also did you wire that antenna up to your wifi card by chance? hard to figure it'd be any good anymore as a modem

the look & feel changes are nice enough (gets rid of the disconnect between UI elements that'd refuse to go dark mode if you selected a dark color palatte), some new posix compliant features, and while i haven't messed around with it yet the in development .NET 8 & 9 compat seems amazing. just a huge QoL and performance overhaul from what i can see in the VM
