    They literally never claimed this was accurate and even said their methodology could be wrong. Nothing in the contract says anything about bots. They don’t have to prove anything a…

    I think that’s a little much. Definitely was estranged from his dad and it seems for good reason. No evidence his alleged childhood wealth funded his adult businesses. Founding doe…

    Musk seems like a smart guy who got overconfident and out of his area of expertise and made a series of incredibly stupid decisions. Pretty much every legal and financial professio…

    I don’t care where you pay them you tend to get what you pay for. Been a part of too many “reshoring” projects after budget Indian devs bungled the code base beyond recognition. Al…

    Salary is not a "sign of respect" it is an indicator of how the company makes money and values software engineers. Software companies have software margins other companies... do no…

    If your RSUs are significantly devalued due to a price drop most tech companies will just give you a supplemental refresh to bring you back up. You might not be 100% whole to your …

    Why do you think standups are stupid? They are merely a way to understand what the rest of the team is working on and to make sure you have the resources you need to do your job wi…

    That is a fair point, a friend is working on ChromeOS tooling for testing/deploys and seems to be able to move fairly quickly and his work has large impact internally but not milli…

    The problem with personal projects is they almost always lack the scale, complexity, or real world constraints/drivers that real work does. Helpful to feel like you're actually bui…

    Ask HN: Do most SWEs actually code at BigTechCo jobs?

    I have worked at a BigTechCo for about 3 years and feel like my engineering skills are slowly and steadily deteriorating. Multiple people in my team, org, and other BigTechCos have…
