I do agree - If there are two employees with the same work output, the one who took the time and effort to pave his way to replacement is going to be let go first.
This also has happened to me multiple times. And to the comments saying the employer could "replace you any time" - most cases, they just don't know how to do so, or have the time and money to do so. This strange…
With Sublime Text, I enjoy not having to turn off data collection and thinking about if updates enable them again.
Great time to read some books if you haven't already. - Mythical Man-Month - Design Patterns - Code Complete
It's a nice nostalgic reminder of what the web used to be - when it was just made up of people wanting to express their interests. A time where ads, tracking and Javascript weren't a thing.
"to have it off", is what I meant to say there.
When you install it, the first window they show you is a Terms of service agreement that has "Agree" "Disagree" buttons - except, it's not a Terms of Service agreement. It's an agreement to turn the program on. So you…

Where are you seeing that there were more denials than submitted? On the first table, it shows the total submitted is 398,718. The number approved is 345,262, which leaves at most 53,456 denied (398,718 - 345,262 =…

I'm not from the Bay Area so I'm not aware, how is it dying?
It is true, I live in one of those cities (Omaha) at a tech startup, it's been tiring these last 4 years sitting next to people who openly talk and try to 'educate' peers about how immigrants kill people, vaccines cause…
