Um, I just wanted to let you know that I had never considered that anyone didn't know that slang. So, thank you for that data point. There's such a big world out there!
Seriously. How has someone not gotten high at least once in their life?

Think it’ll change at some point?
We are profitable but in hiring freeze as we wait to see what happens. We were going to IPO last year but decided to delay because the market sucks. Interest rates need to stabilize and the IPO market needs to thaw before sentiment changes. People don’t get it because money was so cheap for so long, but the key word here is venture - this is extremely risky stuff. Ad venturous . Uncertainty and low success rate is su…

Sounds more like you flustered someone then got all condescending and arrogant.
I'm sorry but if someone is trying to get a job with the title, "Software Engineer" in it and they cannot do a nested for loop (the slow O^2 solution) I don't know what to tell you other than that person is not fit for the job. In terms of basics it's akin to "fizz buzz".
whats the fast solution

Don't forget the fluent L2 English speakers that don't necessarily know all the slang out there

So not that it really matters, and not that you have to consume drugs you don't want to, but its legal in a huge chunk of the US now (assuming you're in the US since you took DARE). It's very likely that you're withing driving distance of a legal store - where you can just buy it like any other product. Even more likely that you'll vacation somewhere its legal otherwise. Cannabis specifically is a very easy drug to t…
Counterpoint: be a little scared. Mild curiosity is not a good reason to try cannabis. (1) Some people are more sensitive than others to THC, and, worst case, you can end up hospitalized. (2) Smoking anything is bad for your lungs. If you really want to do it, try low grade edibles; do it in the presence of a friend so they can get you medical help if you need it. Only a small number of people will have a problem, bu…
That said, there’s really few cases of cannabis use going poorly, especially in the context of other drugs (alcohol, tobacco) and their documented harm. I’m not a doctor, I’m not a lawyer, etc so do your own research, but it is most likely a safe activity at a “normal” dosage for the average person.
> If you really want to do it, try low grade edibles; do it in the presence of a friend so they can get you medical help if you need it. Only a small number of people will have a problem, but don’t take stupid chances with your body and mind, people.
I do agree with this. Edibles are good because you don’t have to smoke, but bad because the affects can take upwards of 2Hr to hit. it can be hard to dose and many people get impatient and take more and then they don’t enjoy the sensation. There’s almost no documented case of overdosing especially in the context of amounts someone might buy, so that’s not likely a concern, but just having a bad time is likely. Do it with friends - it’s also more fun that way. Most people don’t turn 21 and start drinking alone, so don’t do this alone either. Establishing a sober medical monitor type relationship for taking a small edible is a bit extreme but don’t be alone.

For me, when hiring someone, I want to have a track record with them. Having known them over a long period of time helps me be less guarded and more sure of their intentions. This also applies if the person is a friend of a friend — building a “network” just means knowing people who can vouch for you as a valuable and trustworthy person. The ability to build relationships and be stable over time is a merit.
So you're looking to hire people you know and people you don't know don't have a chance to be hired? I don't know how to distinguish this from nepotism.

Things are looking very very grim, even compared to how the market looked to me a few months back.
