He could have also been professional and only stated that the employees statements are generally false, and left it at that.
The idea that people really work 80-hour weeks is TOTAL BULLSHIT. It's only self-aggrandizement. 80 hours a week means 11 hours a day every single day. That means you wake up at 8am, roll into office at 9am (ya, show me…
I find that self-taught people have a bias towards self-taught. They see it as a reflection of passion, because that's someone who took their own initiative to learn. I see it differently, for two reasons: 1. The best…
There are two outcomes after the acquisition of a small company. You can tell based on their announcement message: * "It's been an amazing journey!" --> shut down. * "We have no plans to shut the service down" --> shut…
This was a long time ago (1994), but even today, if you're writing a 3D renderer from the ground up, your polys are gonna pass through a big ol' pipeline to get onto the screen. No way around it.
While agile terms (spike, sprint, ...) become common parlance, I will show myself the exit.
Cool. I've never worked there, but I appreciate that your comment came from personal experience. Also, Oracle sounds super bureaucratic if you actually need approvals from the Google CEO! ;-)
Have you worked at Oracle, or just bashing them for fun because they're a large successful company?
Somehow I knew the top comment was gonna be "C++ is insane!!" How would you implement pipe functions in Javascript? And I mean literally using the pipe operator, and not just chained. You can't, so you don't. In Java?…
Why don't you go out and do the research, find out if Plated is, actually, doing so well, and then come back with some actual findings, rather than a flippant dismissal of this article?
It'd be great if instead of founders generously giving to employees post-facto, startup contracts were more employee-friendly from the beginning. How much % should engineers 1-10 demand? One percent is typical for eng…
Sorry, my original point must have been very unclear. In a typical startup, the ratio of equity between founder and employee #1 might be 50:1 or even much more. I am always surprised that people sign up to be employees…
I'm talking about the equity on day 1, not on exit day. But even on exit, the ratio is the same between founders and employees.
This I just don't understand. The founders have the idea, leave their jobs first, and raise the money. Fantastic. Then they bring in two engineers a couple of weeks later, who quit their jobs for a nascent idea with no…
