I'm the last to disagree with your assessment of myself, but I'll defend the idea. Aggregating data during a global pandemic isn't a stupid thing to do. Rather - and stay with me here - it's a smart thing. Edit: Oh you…

This is inaccurate for internal tools.
That's not how Google works. She mentions in the Gizmodo article that she had ownership over these files, which isn't given out casually. Creating these policy notifications would have been a core part of her work.
ah, also - are you cool with suicide? if so I think your hardline approach is fine, it's really just being forced to live + treated like shit (ref. your post) if you don't enjoy it enjoy it enough that I think is the…
Uh no, sorry, it's the argument. You've been on this site for four years now - be honest, have you ever seen someone with a lazy armchair opinion enter a debate, receive strong pushback including scientific citations,…
Okay, my mistake for getting dragged into the archetypal HN argument. It's clear you cannot be convinced. Your original point - that depression has no biomarkers and is extremely subjective - has been proven wrong by a…

Don't be baffled! No one thinks this. Everyone has seen a variation of this comment a million times by now, and everyone knows it, but companies will never be able to admit it. It's all about putting stress on the lie.…

Sure, these salaries are not available at every company. I just wanted to outline a path for a competent (but not amazing) programmer to make >$200k outside the Valley without moving to a management role.
Are you just talking about salaries? Total compensation has been on the rise lately. Google and Facebook pay between $150-200k to new grads, and a senior programmer at either of these companies can get double that.
I interviewed with Etsy for an internship position last year. After the on-site was finished, our group of interns was told we'd hear back within a few days (but likely the very next day.) After two weeks of silence, I…
I think this is likely just some angel investor's portfolio, with some other companies sprinkled in. A few alarm bells are going off: * Explicitly filters for people who do not want a work life balance. If a job…
That'd be great! If you search for "sophomore studying computer science at UW Madison", you should find my email.
Do you give rejections to people who apply? I emailed careers@matasano.com asking about an internship in October and never heard back. I took that as a sign that you weren't interested, but I'm now thinking I should…
Psychological pricing - don't tell me that your product is $9.95; say $10.
