I agree with you in general. I just don't think a person 6 months out of college can effectively do what you describe. When I was six months into the job I certainly didn't know ho…

I don't think being led / managed by someone younger is a big deal, but this is a weird story. The author was just 6 months into his first job then made a leader of three much more…

You made too many assumptions about me. I'm not at the top. I'm not even from the US.

Yes. I'm at least half serious. 1. The system is unfair in the first place -- Indian's quota is not in proportion to their population. 2. The bill tries to flush the queue, that le…

This is such a terrible "fix". “For the next 10 years, more than 90 percent of the employment-based green card will go to citizens of one country” This is so unfair to citizens of …

The graph is likely showing Frames Per Second (FPS). The higher the better.

Right. So it is a world in which everyone is for themselves. Companies shouldn't blame employees having no loyality then. Having survived a few rounds of layoffs and saw colleagues…

This comment articulated my thought so well. I'm glad that I'm not the only one who would react like that. :-) The industry is playing a silly game.

The act sent out two messages to me. 1. They have low-balled me before, they will do it again. 2. They don't pay based on how much value I generate but as little as they can to pre…

> I've always wondered how much value employers lose via this sort of error. I suspect nobody can come up with a number that would convince everyone in the chain in a large organiz…

> he was one of those people making easy SV money Yet what I see most of the time is that organizations exploit employees' passion. The more you like your job, the less likely you …

So? What is the significance of one single event? Looking at that site it is not that uncommon. Did this event catch your attention simply because it had the right keywords (US Dep…

"A person familiar with the analysis told Reuters it had been conducted by global firm Nardello & Co and that customers could ask for more detail on that company’s findings." So I …

The context of the NYT article is that bad news in Chinese media is censored. GP already said "the kind of ...", which was not about a specific piece or a specific link, so it woul…

Last time I checked Trump wasn't exactly a fan of immigrants either.

Open source project with 2 PMs? That sounds very weird to me. In my mind that open source projects should be driven by community.

zinc.rc is certainly interesting. Thanks for sharing!

> Has hello world ever been exciting The HN upvote says otherwise. :-) But I guess had there been an HN-equivalent in assembly age people would get excited about C, too. > The ques…

As a C programmer who fiddles with low level stuff I wonder why people get exciting about such trivial thing. Don't get me wrong. Rust is an interesting language. The thing describ…

I just want to point out accepting pull requests for signatures is a bad idea -- someone is going to lose the race and rebase over and over if unlucky, assuming many people are goi…

I myself don't really see any motive of doing that. It is administrative burden (maintaining the service that bridge API and existing system, managing GitHub accounts / tokens). Co…

My company pays me to work on a fairly old-school free software project and we run our own git service. Our workflow is email based so we won't ever consider switching to GitHub. T…
