RTO is barely being pushed for. They said "you should come to the office these 3 days", but almost no one did and no manager seems to care.

I'm not in the PA that will be sharing desks but sit in one of the affected offices. I can see about 100 desks from where I am right now. All of them are assigned to someone, but o…

You must not follow many VCs. They're _very_ into hexagonal pics and web3 hype.

That meaning of dropped generally only applies in intransitive contexts. Here we have a thing dropping a thing, suggesting the older meaning of "dropped".

Agreed. I work in the PP's PA and was promoted on my first try for doing unsexy but worthwhile maintenance work on an important tool. It can happen. In my estimation the best thing…

I basically still log in for interest group posts (e.g., photos from my son's preschool) and to RSVP for party invites. I'd love to see alternatives take over for these.

My 3 year old has ASD. I'm interested the finding about disproportionate megalencephaly, as his head is pretty big (but he's also rather tall). Suppose I wanted to see if he falls …

https://flywaydb.org/ is another contender in this space, that also allows for migrations written in Java if needed.

And yet the endgame will probably the same as that for all the other travel bans -- the variant will spread anyway.

There's been a big investment in server platforms that strive to enable SWEs to build a new service that follows Best Practices with as little knowledge and handholding as possible…

Yeah, 11:19 hours of daylight at the trough, 12:57 at the peak: https://www.timeanddate.com/sun/samoa/apia . The case for DST is exceptionally weak at those latitudes.

And yet the Weihenstephaner, which actually tastes good, goes for almost $10 less.

Oh God, Spivak. The name gives me flashbacks to my first year at U of C. I arrived thinking I was smart about math things. That book humbled me bad. A tough beginning to four tough…

Yeah, one consequence of hiring exclusively based on technical skill is that you end up with some employees that are empathy challenged. My employer recently added one "are you a h…

> he also seemed unwilling to push at all, just said "okay!" in a sing-song voice that implied "yeah whatever, go die" Is the idea here that you wanted the interviewer to beg you t…

One of my biggest interviewing mistakes was voting "hire" on a guy despite his seeming difficulty with coding during the interview because he was such a great talker and had great …

They do need to retake their boards periodically to stay certified. My surgeon father was pulling out his textbooks periodically into his 60s.

Indeed. It's quite common to move your assets to a living trust in California for this reason, even for the only somewhat wealthy. It's basically SOP to set up a trust rather than …

It seems highly likely that you are not, and therefore that this trade is much less of an obvious win than you appear to assume.

Having a current employee add your resume to an ATS as a referral is the most efficient route. Around SF at least it's not particularly hard to find someone willing to do that even…

Yep. The people who optimized for space at the cost of a longer commute are the winners here. Those of us who prioritized a short commute with the expectation of not being home eve…

The management of individual accounts is generally performed by low-level employees at companies like this. It's operational work that is thought to scale poorly and the costs of i…

> (Also POTUS is not authorized to declare any wars btw.) While true, this effectively doesn't matter given the number of people we've bombed since our last declaration of war in 1…

It's pretty common to submit a confidential draft. This started with the JOBS Act [1], which loosened disclosure requirements generally for "Emerging Growth Companies" [2] when the…
