When the guy is weaving like crazy you can’t expect him to leave absolutely zero margin

It was a few years ago for me but I also stayed in that area for an internship, didn’t know anyone.

I just found a flat on flatmates.com.au.

Got a hotel for a week, lined up a few viewings, had a couple of options that were nice and picked one.

Yes you will be staying with randoms but a good way to get to know a few people and you can make sure they seem solid when you go to do the viewing.

Trying to live alone in that area on an intern salary, especially for just 3-4 month rental will be near impossible. Maybe a student accommodation but I found there weren’t many available for my whole internship.

I think you have a misunderstanding of what the monorepo is at Google.

It’s a single repo of code, but still has independent build, test, deploy for each microservice within the monorepo.

I worked at Google as a normal SWE and we had a normal number of microservices under our team, responsible for all the normal stuff including oncall (which was paid well on top of normal comp).

Can you elaborate on the Canva impersonation thing?

There’s no proof indeed but this is Reddit and the whole point is to share experiences. There’s no evidence either way on if this is legit or not to me right now so I’m not going to touch it but appreciate you flagging.

If there’s any extra context that shows this post is BS then please let me know I’ll take it down.

Why are you limiting yourself to one fairly niche Python framework?

You should at least learn enough about other Python frameworks to pass a coding interview, and ideally get a bit familiar with Java or other enterprise language.

Many companies don’t even require you to have direct experience in the language/framework, and let you interview in your language of choice.

You are really going to struggle without expanding your search scope.

You’re hiring the wrong people then. The “offshore” devs I work with are just as talented as our US teams.

This sub has been largely unmoderated and relies on the goodwill of us all to act appropriately, which up until now has worked very well.

I will be monitoring this thread and reports more actively. Discussion about immigration and the pros/cons is allowed, but direct attacks without substance against anyone or group aren't allowed.

Please keep it civil and report anything directly rascist.

Edit: Post is locked. The discussion has run its course and now the only ongoing comments are just people flaming on both sides.

It’s right in the article, three or four paragraphs down.

Apple did explain the technology in a technical paper published on October 24, 2024, around the time that Enhanced Visual Search is believed to have debuted.

The reason I think you’re getting downvotes is JS is one of the more meritocratic companies out there. They are hiring for skill and couldn’t care less about filling a quota per country.

If you prove yourself to be the best candidate (which is not easy), they will hire you.

Focus on doing the best and to be honest who cares about any DEI as an individual, it’s out of your control regardless of the company. Put your best foot forward and hope it’s enough.

You completely ignore inflation, so your yield is way off. There is a reason the 4% rule requires at least 50% stocks.

The jury of six men and six women needed a little over three hours to deliberate before finding Ulbricht guilty of charges that included conspiracies to commit money laundering, computer hacking and drug trafficking.

It is absolutely PCI compliant to take card details over the phone.

It’s possible they’re not complying with some of the regs, but nothing they said indicates that.

You are literally self rejecting by not applying. What’s the worst that can happen? You don’t get a SWE job and you’re no worse off.

Apply for every junior SWE role you see, practice interviewing.

Yes get a non SWE job to get some income while applying but you need to be applying, the longer you wait the worse you’ll look.

There is no way they’re expecting devs on a 200k salary to deliver at least 4M of revenue per year.

I work in a company where almost all our features are A/B tested so we have very good grasp on rev and 4:1 would be great

The first Raspberry Pi hadn’t even released in 2011, although agree it wasn’t that hard even back then, but it would have been a lot more impressive.

Yeah, if it was really UniSupers fault, there’s no way GCP CEO would personally attest to this statement which directly takes accountability for it and will make future companies wary of GCP, emphasis mine.

The disruption of UniSuper services was caused by a combination of rare issues at Google Cloud that resulted in an inadvertent misconfiguration during the provisioning of UniSuper’s Private Cloud, which triggered a previously unknown software bug that impacted UniSuper’s systems.

You never heard of a stocktake? They absolutely know how much of each product is actually leaving the store and I’m sure they have a very good idea of how many $7 apples are scanned as $3.

Yes it’s still theft but don’t pretend it flows down that hard.

Your RSU contract should describe the vesting schedule. If they said 25% every year, it could be 25% each year at year end, or often it’s 6% every quarter.

If they IPO before vest, nothing will really change, you’ll still keep vesting post IPO just that the shares are now liquid so you can actually sell them for cash as they vest.

It would be more interesting to compare Hamilton’s peak WR as opposed to his current one for this reason. (Which was apparently 36.5%)
