$50,000 is on the higher end of the spectrum for teachers. In Texas, the starting teacher salary is around $38,000. Plus, teachers have to provide their own supplies, be at the school by 7 am every day, stay late helping with extracurricula

Having worked there long ago, this is 100% the case. They're a hardware company at heart and never made a good effort to modernize.

The frustrating part about Uber is that I have to wait 10 minutes for each one before they refuse to take me somewhere. With a taxi I can just walk down the row of taxis at the airport. On the other hand, the only reason taxis can get that

I tried to go from SFO to South Bay a while back around midnight and eventually took a cab after being cancelled by multiple Uber drivers. Some even called me, asked where I was going, then angrily said they don't go to South Bay and c

Computer Science is a new field and individual developers can have reaching effects on society, direct or indirect, that extend further than any other engineering discipline. My belief is that it 100% is on the responsibility of researcher

There is definitely room for improvement among pay in Canada, but it really is an exceptionalist view to base the pay in USD. Especially so because I always see people convert salary in CAD to USD, then not convert the cost of goods and liv

Understandable. I suppose as time goes on any product is going to be centralized among a handful of major players.

I understand how great this is, but does anyone else get a little upset when GCP, AWS, and Azure are able to buy their way into a market and are pretty much guaranteed to hurt the small players in the infra tooling market?

eh, i don't know about that one. In most countries outside of America, "engineer" is a reserved word for licensed engineers and Software Engineers can not legally call themselves engineers, thus developers.

How does Shopify not give enough control? Anyone can write Shopify apps to extend extra features with their API or pay someone to create an app (less than paying someone for a full ecommerce site)

As someone in their 20s I'm always amazed (and i'm sure my peers in the same age group are) by how many people become somewhat famous on Instagram. The people doing it usually don't have jobs that could find the kind of lifes

I really wish we could know what is going through CEOs heads when they make statements like this while simultaneously contradicting themselves.

Also, once a company reaches $200k/month they're likely to move to a more powerful ecommerce platform like Shopify.

It's a good thing for business, yes, but there are a lot of ethical implications surrounding socioeconomic/behavioural predictions. I've been getting the feeling recently that Facebook has successfully circumvented decades of

Musk's idea is _incredible_ and I really think it has the potential to take off with American car culture. However, I think that might be it's biggest downfall, too. In many aspects, from environmentally friendliness to ridership

I find it funny how we complain so often of the news moving too fast and major stories becoming irrelevant in a day or two, yet when a something stays in the news for more than a week people gripe over how much attention we give the topic.

Agreed. Comparing Snap to other companies with similar # of employees, it really shows how bloated the company is especially since there is only _so_ much you can work on with a single purpose app. I wonder if their decentralized office tac

As a junior dev, keep us on the edge of just enough work and too much work. Too little work seems to cause disdain of the company (questioning why we were even hired) among my other junior peers. On the other hand, too much work causes us t

We have been migrating to Kubernetes for the past year. Overall it has been great and the extensibility of the platform is amazing once you combine Custom Resource Definitions (CRDs) into your cluster.
