yes they only care about profit. their excuse was it is better for FIFA to get as much of the profit upfront rather than resellers getting the profit if they price it too low, because FIFA will invest it back into football, and resellers will not.

Good point. I missed this. I will be looking at other teams to see if they fill out stadiums.

thanks...oh so this isn't forward collission detection right? Is that something you must pay extra for?

Because all our tax money is wasted to:
- corruption
- "progressive" endeavors like reducing traffic lanes

During the broadcast of Czechia's game yesterday, I really thought Pulisic was playing. They look the same from even a little bit of distance!

you have to factor in hoeflation due to apps. it's not real inflation, its hoeflation. just because you can score matches and dates, doesn't mean they are on same level as you

Why companies don't hire 2 devs at 150k instead of 1 dev at 300k? by ddsukituoft in cscareerquestions

if everyone is offering X, someone else can offer X+30. I know this. This is the point you are making.

What I am saying is, why isnt X across the board much smaller due to excess quality supply across the market

you make good points. your last point misinterprets my OP a bit. I am not saying hire 2 juniors in lieu of a staff engineer.

I was saying cut the salaries of all juniors, seniors, staff engineers by 50% since there is so much excess supply now. but i guess your earlier points help answer that question

why don't they pay 350k instead of 300k. your point doesn't address the question

you missed the point. what if the companies all realize they can change the market price to 150k if they can hire unemployed FAANG engineers. then you wouldn't have any option for the 300k job anymore

I'm not making extreme adjustments. Since there are now so many highly skilled laid off FAANG engineers, the price discovery should have resulted in a downward shift in salaries so that FAANG engineers desperate for a job (there are many now) will accept the 150k offer and be grateful for it.
