    I always wondered why 6" dick was put into this. The other variant of 6pack abs made more sense. Most women want to verify things before having sex and income, height, and abs are …

    Never had a ton of extra money but your parents can casually pay for your college expenses and buy a house for you?

    There are wide ranges but it's more about how you feel personally and what you've noticed over time. Some men have below average T but feel great and build serious muscle anyway. T…

    YMMV here. Your electric rates are insanely cheap and places where EVs are most popular are in states like California where paying $0.50/kwh is not uncommon. Plus many of us in CA …

    It's $20 for 75 minutes in California. Add on that you'll spend an extra hour at the store minimum just trying to get the truck and return it. I would use the service way more and …

    Strange. I took 3 years off from 2022-2025. I got a job immediately at FAANG. I did have to relocate back to Silicon Valley.

    Man, are people on HN still this unaware of how personalization algorithms work at all?

    It’s always been this way - people just don’t realize it. Before, people were reposting memes, articles, chain letters, etc. Most of the content you’d see wasn’t created by the per…

    Never seen anyone pulling down $500k/yr from a startup with that little capital.

    I don't think your examples are even remotely scalable nor do they pay well. Joining a startup at an early stage where you know a founder and can bypass interview steps is notoriou…

    Where are these jobs paying $500k/yr that I can skip these interviews? I haven’t seen them yet. I hear about jobs paying below $100k/yr that do this but that’s not getting us anywh…

    That’s a system design interview. Those exist already and are about 45 minutes in length.

    You must not live in California. A lot of these are actually regulated by the state.

    You’re also in a particular club. I’ve met a lot of supercar owners just in the wild and at my work. A lot of them are into it for the status. Some can be passionate but very few w…

    This is a weird take. Has anyone here been to Miami or LA? I’ve known a lot of people with supercars. Quite a few want the attention. If they didn’t - they would drive a different …

    Wonder when Americans will apply this to themselves with their own government which does far worse things everyday instead of posting these comments.

    This is large ymmv. Most people would get fired for not shipping stuff regularly. Just because some engineers at a big company are able to skirt by without shipping doesn’t mean th…

    No one is getting $700k tc for senior eng outside of speciality AI roles. That’s beyond even staff level. You can stay at the company and get stock appreciation up to that but you’…

    I presume they’ll do something more akin to coffee meets bagel where you have X amount of people per day to choose to interact with. There’s not really much AI in all that. That’s …

    HN’s demo is quite old. It’s likely most here are married with kids or have a dead mother. The days of a young Silicon Valley are long gone.

    Yeah, this is my current read on the market. If you're looking for typical $400k senior software eng role at a public tech company - you're going to be having a really hard time. M…

    I’d like to know the well paying and non-morally bankrupt companies. What company out there has a flawless reputation and is paying $400k/yr for senior eng in SV?

    Up $50B in revenue - spend $100B+ on AI. Not sure that's the move but what do I know.

    You never press the button. Therefore, the game is never finished. Everyone goes on with their life as is.
