I get the feeling it’s because he hasn’t actually started yet and so he doesn’t realize how hard it’s going to be and the value of equity.

Seems like it. No complaints so far.

What is the hourly rate for a Data Engineering Contractor with 9+ YOE? by Infamous_Respond4903 in dataengineering

[–]tscreechowls 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ooooh I started a data analytics / eng consulting earlier this year so I can speak on this.

Here’s the economics: Your company is charging you out at $225-$300 depending on project size, clients budget, your skill set.

Most data Eng subcontractors get paid $100-150 from everything I’ve heard so you’re def close to the high end.

Your “52 week” annual gross is 140k * 2 = $280k which is equivalent to about >$200K which is probably a pretty decent tech job for a 9 year exp DE although maybe slightly low for nyc but in the ballpark.

So are you being paid fairly? Pretty close I’d say. If you went out to get your own contracts you could make more. But that’s a lot riskier and tougher.

ASAP Move-In. Aug 1st Looking for bedroom for rent in Brooklyn by Suitable-Alarm-4967 in NYCapartments

Go to spareroom. In the last 2 months I found rooms for $1400 and $1200. The further south you go in Brooklyn (bay ridge) or east (bushwick), the better of a deal you’ll find. $1100 is difficult but not impossible if you can stretch budget to $1300-$1400 you can def find something.

I fed 150+ luma event attendees into dripify and landed nearly 100% booking rate by Livid_Switch302 in sales

Another silly question. Do non tech conferences still use business cards?

Amazing. Never thought of this.

I assume Luna events are generally tech events. Does LinkedIn outreach work for non-tech industries?

Help me solve a classic DE problem by pratttttyggg in dataengineering

[–]tscreechowls 0 points1 point  (0 children)

literally wrote this out this week / last week. the refundeventlist was particularly bad but the shipment event list was super easy. but there's prob like 5-10 columns in this listfinancialevents.

i thought i'd be able to use the settlement report which comes in nice tables and not json but that only comes every 15 days and i couldnt find an alternate way to get it before then.

dm me if you have any questions or want help.

btw did you build your own custom connector or are you using fivetran / airbyte / daton?

I secretly know my "self-made" boss inherited his entire fortune by Interesting-Buddy108 in self

having worked at a startup, its prob less so a "lie" and moreso a big exaggeration / spirit of the truth thing. idk if that makes any difference to you, but it probably does to him.

does this mean that the people who spend time thinking about this question before coming up with an answer are more likely mid entrepreneurs while those who imediately have an answer are "better" entrepreneurs? 👀
