You've trolled multiple companies here, while you've been unemployed for 20 months. Your bitterness is not helping anyone, especially yourself.

Tall order, but a large budget for the role would improve your odds; what's the rough salary range?

Keeping score is still the primary driver. Wealth and power, it's all relative. And the competition only becomes fiercer as those measures increase (the top performers being the most competitive). The person with $5B is not thinking in

Gotcha. I think the indie community could find it fun and useful - reminds me of a single spot that aggregates those occasional HN posts: "what are you using to build your 1-person startup, hobby, side project?" However, if you&#x

I wouldn't call it morally indefensible for companies to make layoffs after the hiring irrational exuberance that occured in 2021. They're trimming fat. I would use that label for a Private Equity firm leveraged buyout, followed b

In-office employers are raising compensation to compete against remote companies. Especially in tech, they need to up the ante if they're going to attract top talent.

Stock market: investors like that companies are correcting for the over-hiring that peaked in 2021 - lower costs & higher productivity. Housing prices: have barely increased since late 2022 in most major cities (falling in cities like A

Nice! How would you say this differs from Wappalyzer, Builtwith, StackShare or similar tools?

Fingers crossed it's satire, or my mind will just shatter.

In 50 years, $1 million will be worth around $225,000 (assuming 3% inflation).

Useless statistic - people unable to retire are not part of the survey. A more valuable stat would be % of people over 65 with $1M+ in savings.

It's the other way around: Dell is making public a policy that's unwritten at tons of companies.

This is the unwritten policy at many companies; Dell is just announcing it.

It a signaling device to tell the world that you're innovating and/or not falling behind. Insert the buzzword in your pitch deck, marketing materials, or job posts and you'll see an ROI increase. Gotta ride the wave, especial

This potentially solves another critical problem. It's a nightmare for less savvy (generally older) people to evaluate any product, due to the proliferation of SEO tactics. It's especially harmful in cases where the price is tied

Sadly, I'm both grateful & frustrated that my brain only excels in rote memorization. I have no critical thinking and problem-solving skills. I didn't fully realize the repercussions until interviewing for management consultin

As an HN reader with a tech mindset, I was like "soon?!?" I guess the study is valuable since the overall job market has been strong this past year.

Hi. I've never used Signal, but have considered it. Can you explain the downsides? An ELI5 would be ideal as I'm non-technical, but I understand if that's asking too much :) Thanks!

This is national policy-making, so why would a country care about the effect outside of its borders? I understand that US national policy is not done in a vacuum, but it seems reasonable for a nation to start with its best interests in mind

Interesting. I failed Kagi - it's just SO easy to stick to what I'm used to. The mere act of trying it forced me to step back and evaluate my whole Search mindset, ultimately deciding "eh, Google is good enough." While p

Impressive. How do you know if it's a new vs. reposted job?

Wow. If this is how you write in your non-native language, you must be a virtuoso is your own! What's your native language?

Awesome. From the perspective of tech recruiter for startups, I can say that Hiring Managers just love this stuff. It really sets you apart!

Yes. The book is fascinating and heartbreaking: Master Mind: The Rise and Fall of Fritz Haber, the Nobel Laureate Who Launched the Age of Chemical Warfare. "The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

This is just another correction from the 2021 bubble, no? It sucks, but better this than the layoff form of re-balancing.

That's what the stock market is, right?

Excellent advice. Question: in what ways does insurance domain knowledge set you apart? I understand certain industries benefit from Engineers with domain experience (e.g. Healthtech companies needing HIPAA knowledge). I'm curious as t

Where is Sam (author) 10 years later? He left Wall Street in 2014 and founded a nonprofit to help low-income individuals more easily access healthy meals... But pivoted it to a for-profit entity that has raised $100 million.
