Speaking of such funny business: unfortunately I have seen *(array + i) quite a few times. To make it worse, it’s in a parser for external data in binary format, where you really shouldn’t be playing funny tricks.
Some people aren’t even applying because their orgs have made it clear that remote won’t be approved, and some people are being denied for spurious reasons. (Best one I’ve seen is: personal reasons not strong enough for…
Yes, anyone can apply. But no, not all orgs will accept a remote application. And if your org says no, there aren’t that many internal remote options yet. And some orgs will say no to remote transferees for the first N…
There’s a difference between: unrelated to your job, and unrelated to the business as a whole. In some locations, employers can’t claim copyright on works unrelated to your current role.
Yup - or at least that’s what Google tells their employees. Want to publish something - you’d better get permission, and stick the Google name on it. And based on my limited understanding of the US contracts, is also…
14.5k is almost the monthly base pay for a senior software engineer at a FANG in Bay Area/NY/Seattle/ZRH (not counting bonus and stock though - which make a significant difference). So it does seem very high, but not…
And they're supposed to only store the data temporarily until it gets put on the passport chip (i.e. not go into the database). Of course there's no way to verify that, but I generally have a bit more trust in German…
OP meant Schengen when they said EU.
Disclaimer: this might not be the case at all airports, but certainly YVR and YYZ have implemented this.
It's hard to be silent towards an online checkbox.
Yes, indeed. US/Europe to -> rest of world (except US) involves no security when transiting Canada. Domestic connections do require security, connections to US generally require preclearance security. Connections from…
Canada is massively better - many routings don't require going through security, leaving only a cursory immigration check (at special transit desks).
Nope. It's for customs, not immigration. You're already in the country, they just need to figure out whether they need to search your bags for contraband.
Significant note: this appears to be a customs screening, not immigration screening. Which makes perfect sense since it's extremely hard for customs agents to actually catch smugglers. (Compared to immigration screening…
Until the data gets sent to US servers.
Needing that kind of recognition seems unhealthy. I'm pretty sure both London and Switzerland have cultures (OK, UK culture is mostly just drinking but still...). Large software hubs generally need to pull in people…
> 2nd class citizen Huh? Also, those places are way more international than most places in Europe, which makes relocation more attractive. Good luck attracting non-Italians to Italy, or non-Polish to Poland.
Mine wanted to get paid. Can you imagine it? Building the best product ever just wasn't enough. P45's all round and the issue was solved, permanently.
That's because US bound flights have separate security, which operates with different standards.
Hmm, when "English-speaking" actually just refers to the United States.
Really? SF is the worst place I've seen for queues, but Americans also spend plenty of time in TSA and CBP queues around the country.
US free speech isn't even that expansive. Food libel laws are the most hilarious thing that a "free speech" country could do, after criticising others for banning nazi speech.
No, thanks. Countries should serve people by making border crossing fast for everyone. GE is an ugly workaround, and shouldn't be needed in any civilised country (and yes, my country has an efficient border, the…
