    As a manager with 10-15 reports at a company you've probably heard of, I think the main question is how much they will need to contribute. I put up a PR or three a week, usually in…

    Creating an additional 30%-50% on top of whatever a normal person would consider passive income in order to actually have passive income is NOT a realistic option for a huge % of t…

    Really? Revenue loss was pretty directly tied to Elon replying and supporting some "jews vs whites" type posts in Nov 2023. That caused Apple, Coke, and many other large clients to…

    I'm not sure you read the article, these are molds that love low humidity. Controlling for humidity made these environments more attractive, not less.

    Same. I can take on things that are nice, but not critical (yet) and make a ton of progress without bothering the devs.

    I've been telling people, this is Uber in 2014, you're getting a benefit and it's being paid for with venture capital money, it's about as good as it's going to get.

    Java is "fast" but not fast. Most of the time if performance is a true concern, you are not writing code in Java.

    I would also argue that software (and the people that write it) have a "correctness" bias that is not fully aligned with business goals. Tech debt is real, but so is the downside o…

    Money is fungible, doesn't really matter what source the money comes from other than optics.

    You pay for one or two people with real experience and 4 reasonably new hires whose job it is to answer questions posed by the senior team and to build documentation. You want the …

    I think the group of people that work on this should petition for their tax data to be the first to be used. Seems to align the incentives on internal controls of PPI.

    I've never this at Google, but at my company, if you pass the technical screen you're offered to hiring managers. If they don't want you on your team because they want more leaders…

    It's not the hiring people that's the problem. Assuming those people "cost" 300k a year all in (benefits/offices,etc) which is probably high, that's $24 billion. The government spe…

    In poker it's called levels. Fighter pilots call it being inside the other persons OODA loop.

    In a softly held defense of those words, they basically are an escalation level. If someone asks you for something, it could be something with undefined scope or priority. An "ask"…

    I think the OP is saying that both nations are banning software because of the risks of the software/data collection posing risks to the political stability of each nation. You can…

    Laws that allow cyclists to treat stop signs and red lights as yield signs are called "Idaho stop" laws and are debated fiercely.

    Mine got moved over and haven't really looked into it. Why are you moving off?

    I work for a company managing a team that has built this for GDPR compliance. Customer submits a deletion request. We have a fan out process that takes the deletion request and sub…

    Every SaaS platform with a reasonably cheap offering deals with these. I work for a recognizable SaaS and there are checks that flag both the accounts and reports the credit cards …

    For me, running is fun, but the real "hook" is the pure escapism. If you don't take a phone, you're unreachable. I have a lot of responsibilities, running is just an amazing way to…

    Modern Poker Theory by Acevedo was the premier book on this, but I've been out of the game a few years. Idk if I'd fully trust his charts given modern sizing theory, but it's going…

    I think another way to say this is that MDF works only if you're in a spot where you have hands that are strong enough to call. If you play every hand, and you see every river in t…

    This is always how Rolex has worked. Supply is limited, and prices are fixed, so they have to pick and choose who gets the rarer and more desirable watches, and who better to offer…
