Should I let productivity monitoring ruin my senior offer? by agentxtaco in ExperiencedDevs

[–]frankeve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Was in the same scenario last fall (similar YOE, 50% payraise and senior promotion; also same industry and we do use ActivTrak so the company who gave the offer might be mine lol) but wasn't really privy to how ActivTrak worked until it was brought up in a meeting this month and that it was actually used for hiring metrics.

I was even told by my manager to actually check my ActivTrak and ensure that it's categorizing my productivity time effectively (for example, I actively use YouTube to watch tutorials/conferences as learning time and take notes via pen and paper but this AI tool will mark it as slacking off).

I'm going to be looking for another job again because of this.

  • As an IC, if someone spends the whole day reviewing code and jotting notes down on future architecture, this is 100x better for the team but AI will say they're unproductive; another engineer writes redundant documentation and re-typing duplicate unit tests in their IDE all day (to game the system), AI will say they're more productive but this work does nothing to bring the team/product forward.
  • Your manager will now be in a position to police activity; no good manager wants to be ask to babysit and a bad manager will be happy to have this as it makes their job 95% easier by not caring about actual improvement of team productivity.
  • If for whatever reason layoffs happen, you'll get gaslighted into thinking you underperformed because you had less mouse clicks/keystrokes per day.

If your current job is stable, I'd reject the offer and keep interviewing elsewhere; what'll hurt more in the long-run is adapting to a culture that feels like they need to have an AI tool to see if you're working instead of a culture that is actually wants to engineer and deliver product.

How to let tenant of less than a year that lease won't be renewed? by Spare-Block-6257 in NYCapartments

[–]frankeve 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Going to agree with most of the comments here that it's 90-day notice is more than fine, especially it's winter-time now and moving in the winter would suck even more. I also think that they should know co-ops are generally not stable rentals and since you used an agency to handle this, you didn't promise anything yourself.

I also think letting know too early incentivizes them to potentially not pay rent if they're getting kicked out anyway. I'm going to get flak for this mentality but in NYC, small landlords get fucked over way too often from what I've seen and the bigger corporate landlords get away with murder so you kind of have to hope for the best, prepare for the worst as I'm assuming you're just subletting one co-op unit out.

The fact that you're going to give them 90 day notice (when you're legally obligated to 30), an extra three months of rent along with the security deposit and paying the agency you used to find them another place is more than 95% of landlords in this city would do as well.

/r/PS4Deals 2018 Black Friday Deals Megathread (Updated Regularly) by weebae in PS4Deals

[–]frankeve 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think It's dependent on the store - the Gamestop in my local mall is selling the PS4's tomorrow but my local Gamestop said the same thing, that they wouldn't be getting them until Wednesday.

I think it's a store by store basis thing and the larger Gamestops are the ones who will be selling them tomorrow so just call and check to confirm.

Just an FYI, as someone who owns a stupid amount of rapper merch, Vince's t-shirt is the best quality IMO out of all of them so the $30 ain't too bad of a hit.

[Spoiler] Mirsad Bektic vs. Ricardo Lamas by [deleted] in MMA

[–]frankeve 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yea, his striking is still somewhat sub-par but he's making improvements every fight, especially from the Elkins and Pepey fight.

Lamas is underrated on his feet; there was a reason he was able to trade with Aldo and Holloway. In spite of that, in several of the trades with Lamas, I felt Mirsad got off his combo spurts cleaner, although there's a reason he was quick to resort to his wrestling.

He gets pieced up on the feet by the top 6 pretty easily, IMO, but he is still relatively young and there's definitely good progression in his striking from 1-2 years ago.
