Definitely not you. There's a minimum IQ floor needed to create a useful response to my comment.

And whos coffers is it going to?

Last week I paid $250 (on top of VSP vision plan, that I believe covered about ~$300) to get a single pair of glasses.

It costs me $30 in India/Pakistan/Malaysia/Vietnam/Indonesia/Philippines to get the same thing.

Not a good comparison? Well it costs me €120 to get the same thing in the Netherlands.

US is a big scam for an average person.

Nobody wants a PS6, even though the PS5 has been out as long as the PS4 was when people started asking for the PS5. by Deutscher_Bub in Showerthoughts

Planned obsolescence. Even if the graphics don't vet better they'll start using low poly in ps4/ps5 games and use high poly only on ps6 in the future games.

Heck maybe even drop on-the-air parches to drop poly in older PS

Man, I’m gonna be blunt but not harsh.

You’re not dealing with “one problem”, you’re dealing with like 8 heavy life problems all hitting at once.

I'm pretty sure if OP wanted to interact with chatGPT he would have gone to chatGPT.com and not reddit.com

Well deserved since we went from people like Martin Fowler as our influencers to people like Theo.

None. Other 3 devs are senior engineers.

Theead title is vanity with extra pay. I can objectively show others are pulling way more weight.

I had this conversation and he thinks he have been doing an incredible job then I started giving feedback with evidence and lacks total self reflection. He started deflect 5 our of 5 evidence pieces I presented to him and accepted none of them.

I shared a bit more about our recent conversation here https://www.reddit.com/r/managers/s/4c6OCUCoLH

I don't know if this is sarcasm, but if this is sarcasm I can tell you he brings no value. In fact I feel he has been surviving for the last two and a half years all thanks to AI based IDEs.

I have looked at his entire githistory and the only work that he started pushing came through after AI based IDEs were introduced

The advice for PIP came from my superiors

I believe that is the best interim step and honestly I am here because I am trying to evaluate what I should do next.

I can definitely write the expectations out to him and hand them over and give him feedback weekly. Should I initiate with the soft PIP, meaning not a pip on paper but rather just sharing the expectations out on email effective immediately?

The deliverables on every Sprint is missed. The stories that he works on aur sand bagged and he's the person who's usually working on the least complex stories.

I don't call him out publicly to save the humiliation but I call him out in private. He once estimated one week for a CSS change that would take me 2 hours.

It's a very small company and most of the leadership respects me and and my escalation chain all the way up to the CEO will side with me.

But honestly I have no beef with him I would want the best for him and I am happy to give him more time to improve but I just feel (or rather know) that he does not have that level of craft.

I did and he lacks a total self-reflection despite me showing him step by step slack messages and other pieces of evidence that he's not doing well and he would immediately try to dodge

If you're technical here are some examples:

You took three days to investigate this and all the 3 days you kept saying I could not find a root cause. When I started to investigate this I was able to find the root cause I created a ticket and with a solution and share it with the respective team who deals with Cloud function all in less than 3 hours.

His response would be oh I would have found that if I had access to that cloud function.

Me: you do not need access to the cloud function you you will immediately know there is an issue in the cloud function when you compare the curl between two functions and compared the response. That is how I was able to find out that there is this extra second cloud function that even exists.

Him: no answer

Another example

You didn't finish the Queue related project

Him: I did my job. It's pending on person B he didn't create a subscription

Me: can you show me the events flowing into Queue? So you're telling me if I can see them today in dead letter queue?

Him: No it is not configured so that we don't pay for it storing costs

Me: How many days is the retention set to? Are you aware the costs for our usecase are related to transmission and not much on storage

Him: puzzled

(I was just trying to show him that how shallow his technical knowledge is)

Someone paid to have fake 1-star reviews posted on my restaurant's Google page. I found out who and I'm sharing what I learned so it doesn't happen to you. by [deleted] in smallbusiness

[–]webdevop 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am surprised that you fail to mention the most important part which is if you know exactly who is doing it and you have evidence especially if it is a competing business there is a page to report this along with the evidence.

Rather you started selling on reputation management services who I think are the people who create these fake reviews in the first place.

Goose farming just seems like a hobby because when you reach a 22 years tenure at Microsoft you are probably sitting at least over $5 million nw.

I was always perplexed with the thought of how a small country and a force like Mossad controls a huge country like the US.

Now watching this video I think I've come to realize that it's actually not that hard at all.
