How is this "dislike of, contempt for, or ingrained prejudice against women." You don't know what misogny is. There are true misogynists out there doing real damage to women. But c…

Misogyny? I do not think it means what you think it means.

I believe in some states it's a criminal offense to record phone conversations without the person's knowledge. So I would be very careful about doing this.

Thank you! May I ask why you decided to eventually leave? And do you regret leaving?

Thank you for your responses, I appreciate it!

I'm considering accepting an opportunity at Netflix, but I'm not sure what the environment is like. Can someone at Netflix or who has worked at Netflix give an objective descriptio…

Also, prospective employees don't both reading the details either, and just mass apply to jobs, regardless of whether or not the employer asks for local candidates only, etc.

It is really, really hard to apply for an H1B for a candidate unless they just graduated from college and are on OPT. If they are on OPT they basically have 2 chances to apply for …

No but I'm necessarily right because I know how a foreclosure works. You don't lose your house after 2 months of non-payment, it takes months and there is a precise legal procedure…

Having gone through foreclosure myself, there is zero chance that you would lose your house after 2 missed payments.

It really isn't coming back, and I hope it never does. Becoming a Perl expert is pretty career limiting, because you will need to learn another language at some point, and none of …

We gave our kid formula with room temperature water for the entire duration of him being on formula. We never heated it ever, and he was fine with it.

Stop feeling sorry for yourself, and get a full time job. You need to accept that you're not good enough to start your own company. It's okay, there are millions of people like you…

I would love it if Google spent some time re-interviewing a bunch of their current employees, to see how good their interview process is compared to random chance. I know their bes…

I've been through a couple of Google interviews. My last one, I didn't even apply for, they contacted me a couple of months ago, asking if I wanted to interview. Why the heck not. …

Is your price really 50 cents per print plus shipping? Costco.com will print for 12 cents per print and free shipping, are you guys going to be able to be competitive against them?…

Facebook does not care about user privacy. They have gone on record saying this multiple times (and then quickly recanted it). They do not care about user privacy because it goes a…

I'm not sure what your point is. Is it to say that it takes minorities to create poverty? Are you saying there aren't poor white communities in the US? What about around the world,…

It's called having some common courtesy. Companies such as yours that think it's beneath them to spend the 10 seconds to respond back to people is a huge redflag that they're fille…

I applied to Twitter and the HR person asked me for dates for phone interviews, and then didn't respond for weeks after I gave them the dates. Twitter HR and their recruitment proc…

that's funny because if you read the thread a few weeks ago about "how much did you make from your startup's exit", most non-founders got royally screwed, making less than 20k. the…

I have applied to a few places in the Valley, as have many of my friends. And I hear nothing but horror stories in terms of how rude recruiters and hiring managers are. I'm not tal…

Awesome! Thanks, this is just the kind of things I was hoping to hear!

Thanks. I'm passionate, although maybe not where fruits are exploding out of my mind :) But I do believe I have enough passion to sustain me, so thanks for pointing that as being a…
