It is the case. Almost all of their scaled support is from overseas most of which are not Google employees. They pay other companies to manage these folks. That 85K employee headcount is only the FTE count. The number of non-FTEs is cra

Or you have family/friends that aren't very technical and don't know any better. I saw people's faces change as soon as someone mentioned where I worked to others in my circle while I was at Google. I had never seen th

It really comes down to supply and demand. In areas where there is a shortage of supply of workers that have a particular skill that businesses value wages do rise. However, if there is plenty of supply for certain kinds of jobs then the

How did you get to bragging about one's education/experience? Or that someone needs to control their ego?

First, how is it anti-trust? And second, it's been shown that faster page loads = better conversions since your bounce rate drops. This is especially true for mobile.

So early 40s here, hired at Google after I turned 40 into a senior individual contributor role. My team has a healthy mix of greybeards, middle aged and younger team members. There are some teams that definitely lean younger here and ther

So I have none of those frustrations as a 2016 GTI owner. Google Maps is wayyyy better than the built-in nav. If I searched for an address on my phone or even my laptop the address is already in my list of recent addresses in Maps and I d

Looks to probably just be a banned word list as alternate/phonetic spellings get through their filter. phuck.to, kok.to, etc.

Your electricity is probably a lot cheaper in Washington also and I'm assuming they have local rate information to factor in. Electricity is very expensive in California especially if you use PG&E since they use a tiered rate stru

Solar leases use the 2% inflation rate too as a way to make them look more attractive (as does the solar roof calculator) but in reality electricity hasn't been getting more expensive at that rate.

One minor nit. The selling agent doesn't get 30K. They get 15K because the buyer's agent also gets 15K in most normal deals. From that 15K their firm probably takes somewhere between 30-50% depending on the volume and size of d

I use this as well on DigitalOcean. It's easy to create new certs and put them on my various devices so I can disable if I need to. I'll have to check out some of the other ones listed here but I've been using it for a few

Huge recommendation for Endurance. I could hardly put that book down. It was a shame that the author died before it became popular finally. A cruel twist of fate due to when the book was released.

I can't comment on Facebook but at Google I see plenty of people in their mid 30s and beyond. I joined in my early 40s. Yeah, we hire a lot of new grads / younger folks (I interview a lot of new grads) but I haven't notice

That's not really the point, though. Being in the market for a new house I can say that I really have to fight certain biases to look past a home that has hideous color choices (subjectively speaking). I tend to then find more faults

How do my parent's credit history have anything to do with my credit history in the US? Are you talking about co-signing for loans or possibly how a child can get a card under their parents' name? I didn't think either of t

I disagree. I also know someone that works in one of the ML teams and he has just a bachelor's and is not relegated to menial tasks and seems to be pretty happy with his level of responsibility.

I'm not sure if you're saying you think that Google doesn't use Docs, Sheets, etc inside of Google but that is the entire opposite of what is happening. Anything that you'd normally do in Office is done on Google for Wo
