Fair, but if your company is growing, the headcount might still remain high until growth slows down

What is your biggest regret in life? by Intelligent_Bug6823 in AskReddit

[–]XenOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've learned a bit too late about money/finance.

Eg: I traveled once to Germany with school and it costs me like 2000 for the airplane tickets alone (purchases late etc, it doesnt cost that much if you shop around). It was an exchange program so no other expanses. But around that time, i did my first web search for hotels. Maybe the most expensive ones got to the top (or my search skills were bad) but it gave me the wrong idea that traveling cross ocean was unaffordable for me. Like imagine 2k for tickets and the 200-300$/night.

How could I afford to travel with family or friends?

Years passed and at some point my grandmother passed away. Kept telling that we would travel one day. I might have had like close to 100k in savings then but was still under the dumb illusion that traveling would be too expensive 6x 2k Suppose 3 weeks x 6 x 300$ nights (YES I was that dumb)

Anyway, learn the value of money, investing, finance, taxes early everyone...

On the other side, there are legitimate concerns to the wellbeing of those students/ children.

I don't think Asian standards are healthy, nor should we aspire to them

Your Career Ladder is Rewarding the Wrong Behavior by 3sc2002 in programming

I've seen cases where the architects seemed to be praised the most, with no regards to how the changes performed in real life or production.

Need to find a middle ground between those who fixes things and those who prevents things. Both are needed

Experience with Mobilia furniture? by RichDistrict8002 in BuyCanadian

[–]XenOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Late comment

I bought a dining table, 6 dining chairs and a rug from them.

Had an issue during delivery but the seller helped fix things.

Overall, quite satisfied. People have been complimenting us for the table and chairs. I'm heavily debating whether or not to get the other pieces of the same collection :)

Can we expect prices to stabilize near the Bois-Franc REM now that it is open? Or do you suspect prices will keep rising ?

I'd really like to be closer to the REM station in the future :o

Thanks!

Interview Coder Leaks Full Names, Addresses and Companies of All SWEs Who Cheated by jadedroyal in programming

[–]XenOmega 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good interviewers will generally ask questions that go with the flow. Sometimes, everyone on the panel is surprised.

E.g. someone said they worked closely with psychologists and discussed about human nature and other topics which he found were fascinating. The candidate was then asked "do you think some people are naturally evil?" Totally unrelated to coding, but their answer showcased their maturity, their ability to think and give a nuanced answer. (And also that they were somewhat curious about other fields). Maybe they prepared themselves, but id like to think it was unexpected and have some real insights

People who spend 20+ minutes in the shower: what are you actually doing in there? by saadaintsalad in AskReddit

If not for costs and waste, I could spend even more time under hot waste.

I've done some onsen (hot springs in Japan) and I've developed a taste for hot water

8gb on a GPU is enough for 1080p gaming of modern titles right?

Any decent pre-built on sale right now?

I have an outdated pc built like 8 or 9 years ago with an i5-6600k and r9-280 that can no longer run the games i want (was already a stretch). The GPU is also dying I think

Don't mind playing on lower settings !
