Yeah this matches up with my experience when I was working as a consultant and trying to get large organizations to buy into managed and structured changes to their enterprise IT environment. It is not an easy job and…
It's when a major fund(s), bank(s) or lender(s) blows up and is followed up a successive string of failures until the "big one". Every financial crisis or recession from the last 30 years or so has had a string of…
Yep - I've ignored the many many Amazon recruiting emails I have received over the years. I have absolutely no desire to deal with their shitty employment practices and idc if it is "team dependent". I am not taking…
Whistleblowers have plenty of protections and can be exempted. Libel can be stated such that they only apply to private matters between individuals, where accusations that do not reach the felony level - which is…
Yes - and it's driving people further into tribes where the only way they feel "safe" is in and around their own "kind". This isn't civilization, but a regression and if it goes on for a few more generations it could be…
> I was stunned at how someone with zero evidence and an obvious axe to grind could rally such disdain for someone else with little more than a few unsubstantiated social media posts. I feel that this is due to the…
Ha! I kinda stopped paying attention to most consumer-oriented startups a few years back when some kooky poetry delivery service got a few million in funding. (I am trying to find a link to it). Then there was that…
> Yes? That's what the whole article is about. Articles like this have been written for 5 years now, but the money keeps flowing into these projects. Argo, Aurora and Aptiv etc. are all still burning mountains of cash.…
Has there? I can't imagine investors/corporations dumping billions, annually, into an project which won't produce a return for 40-50 years.
It doesn't take much to be a world class Ruby developer.
My family moved into our newly built home in the northern suburbs of Pittsburgh in Oct. of last year. We were part of the first group of buyers in a relatively new plan of higher-end homes. Since Oct. of last year, the…
It is for a lot of executives, especially ones which are clueless about technology or who do not have a technology background but were promoted and told to "fix the TPS submission and reporting system!". These…
> Everybody considers themselves a designer, but it is baseless optimism that is supported by little data or precedent. Good designers are unique. Design ability is a 'talent'. Being able to conceive a complex system…
> Use the right technology for what you're trying to build. Yep .. so if you want a rich responsive user experience, DON'T use any web technologies. GMail (AND Gsuite) is a perfect example of how a relatively simple…
I am not buying stock, but a business model that could work is renting out a percentage of their capacity to companies/startups that need to deliver goods or services to customers' homes. I also don't believe…
Layoffs happen all the time so I am not reading too much into this re. macro economics. However, I firmly believe the autonomous driving bubble will pop eventually, and you will have layoffs across that entire segment…
They think it's about gotcha questions and they think they fail because they didn't leetcode hard enough. But ... if you read some of the feedback from interviewers at "those companies" that rely on these interviews,…
Contractor ... Biometrics firm. I loved this company and would still be there today had they not lost so many ppl with the draw downs in Iraq and Afgh. BTW ... this is a true story. One of my career's shining moments.
In the field at Aberdeen Proving Grounds, next to old WWI style bunkers that were prob. full of mustard gas or chlorine gas 100 or so years ago, in a tiny trailer filled with server equipment ... with a failing AC unit,…
There is no one answer to this questions, and efficiency isn't always in the best interests of a "big company". Efficiency always must be tempered with risk. In startups, risk is embraced and therefore they can be very…
I thought I was the only one that noticed. It's certainly makes it clear why this type of situation persists.
I agree. I have been using it for over 20 years now, and use it almost daily in many different capacities. Excel along with the entire MS Office suite of applications is ubiquitous across almost every enterprise. I am…
Interview Style. Are you going to whiteboard me or do something else?
I'll bite on your suggestion of a different process. Bring the candidate on site for a 4 hour coding session. Provide a standard list of questions the scale in difficulty. Think: 1) Fizzbuzz 2) Reverse a string 3) Write…
They also have a lot to lose by leaving the position unfilled for months on end. If you aren't Googlefaceapplezon, then false negatives could be as costly as false positives given time is money.
