Have you built pc's before or mostly relied on rented VPS'? Sometimes enterprise grade hardware like this can be quite a bit more involved / frustrating than just putting together …

Why does anyone over 22 "compete" in hackathons?.... you're literally just giving shareholders and clout seekers work for free...

Over 50% of h1b visas issued in tech went to indian h1b's - no it's not an issue that's equivalent in the entertainment industry.

You have to pay U.S. customs with a U.S. bank account - specifically to hold funds in escrow. Developing ways for businesses to conduct transactions in the U.S. and more easily ext…

Why on earth would you spend this kind of money on an apt you don't even own?

How is this not hilariously illegal? This is also a great way to walk into dozens of egregious customs violations if you use slash and happen to import physical goods in the united…

Nobody wants any of this... This is almost as bad as all of the AI powered resume skimming tools / applicant submission tools. It just makes it impossible for anyone to apply for a…

They want an omnipresent, lobotomized and defeated underclass who only exists to "respond" to the ai to continue to improve it. This is basically what alexander wang from Scale AI …

The best heuristic is what people are realizing happened with uncheck "skilled" immigration in places like canada (and soon the U.S.). Everyone was sold that we "need these workers…

I used to be a big proponent of AI tools and llms, even built products around them. But to be honest, with all of the big AI ceos promising that they're going to "replace all white…

It's hard to explain how diametrically different the playing field is now. In most cases it's not "AI" it's just systemic replacement of Americans because they're "too expensive". …

$90k (per annum) minimum.

I previously lived in new york for four years - but you're not wrong.

I'm hoping for a remote or hybrid gig. If I could find something in Portland Maine that would be amazing - but I doubt there's much opportunity there for SWE's.

These seem to have the most opportunity and most optionality. I've considered austin, but it seems pretty dead. Vastly prefer east coast.

This is generally my take as well. I have a few friends who switched into the trades and realized that in modern times, cheap foreign labor and PE has done a number on the trades. …

I've lived in non target locales before and I like them - but I think I want to meet my wife before fully bugging out. SF dating is atrocious so I'm amicable to the idea of being i…

I really appreciate your thoughts here - I'll send my cv your way. I'd say my strong-suit is in vaguely defined zero to one work and scale out for more sharply scoped functionality…

Curious what kind of companies I'd reach out to for these roles?

I'm looking into some sales and "analyst" roles. The biggest hurdle appears to be them being confused why I'm leaving tech if it's "such a great field" and lacking directly applica…

Frankly, I'm okay with anything around $75k for now. I only made $30k last year and the exit package (as a founder) is held up in some litigation currently. All I want is to pay of…

That's the plan for now - if I found a job with decent enough salary I'd more than consider returning to New York where the culture is more sane and people do... anything other tha…

It's sad because SF is such a beautiful and culturally rich city. A deeply spiritual place in terms of it's geography. Unfortunately, the vibe always felt off to me - almost like s…
