I'm an engineering manager at a Fortune 500 company. The dumbest engineer on our team left for Netflix. He got a pay raise too. Our engineers are fucking morons. And this guy was the dumbest of the bunch. If you think Netflix hires top tier talent, you don't know Netflix.

This Serrano fight is just an insane display of excellence. If anyone was waiting for the main card to tune in, I recommend tuning in now.
I wonder if there will be any long term reputational repercussions for Netflix because of this. Amongst SWEs, Netflix is known for hiring the best people and their streaming service normally seems very solid. Other streaming services have definitely caught up a bit and are much more reliable then in the early days, but my impression still has always been that Netflix is a step above the rest technically. This sure do…
Has Netflix ever live streamed something before? People on reddit are reporting that if you back up the play marker by about 3 minutes the lag goes away. They've got a handle on streaming things when they have a day in advance to encode it into different formats and push it to regional CDNs. But I can't recall them ever live streaming something.

Netflix is good only on streaming ready made content, not live streaming, but; 1. Netflix is a 300B company, this isn't a resources issue. 2. This isn't the first time they have done live streaming at this scale either. They already have prior failure experience, you expect the 2nd time to be better, if not perfect. 3. There were plenty of time between first massive live streaming to second. Meaning plenty of time to…

I interviewed at Netflix a few years ago; with several of their engineers. One thing I cannot say is that they are morons.
their interview process is top notch too and while I was ultimately rejected, I used their format as the base template for how I started hiring at my company.

I've never seen a team that has somehow managed to hire exclusively morons. Even the shittiest of call center jobs and construction crews have a few people with enough brain cells to tie their shoelaces. Have you considered that maybe you're being overly harsh about your co-workers? Maybe take the fact that one of them was hired by a top paying employer as a sign that you should improve your own ability to judge skil…
