The fee exceeds what many of these engineers earn in a year, with the average H-1B salary at TCS running about $105,000. A typical engineer deployed to an American client site generates $150,000 to $200,000 in annual billings at roughly 10%

A human is a peripheral. Our use cases are meaning, identity, and purpose.

I'm not an accountant, but I know enough to have a sense of much "creativity" is possible. The purchase price might be in the past, while costs are ongoing. Yes there would be a markdown from purchase to sale, but that's

Epic owning Bandcamp never made sense. Getting Bandcamp off the books is likely to make the business look better to investors.

The only people who know the term "copyleft" are already familiar with GNU, the FSF, and the free software movement. That is a tiny pool.

ShareAlike is also effective. What we know for sure is that Copyleft is never going to work.

This is a valuable project, executed well. A suggested edit: the term "copyleft" at https://writefreesoftware.org/learn/licenses is confusing and is falling into disuse. "Reciprocal licensing" is ea

Any time you write you create noise for others. You shouldn't do that unless the information you are offering is valuable to them. Your writing can't be about you. It has to serve the reader.

Growing up I envisioned myself as a writer. When I got old enough to test that out I found out the truth of this writer's piece: I was well-known but painfully poor. My girlfriend asked "what are you doing this for?" and I co

Gross sales of Meta Quest are inflated. "Grossly" inflated. HAHAHahaha. The Question is not volume but ROI. Meta is pouring massive amounts of money into the project and has yet to establish organic demand. The headsets that have

Good list. I'd also find an HUD display like this useful for playing music: - lyrics - chord changes - a visual metronome

I was an engineer, then a manager, and now I'm transitioning back to about 80% IC work. There were a couple big obstacles. - Getting your skills back means getting hired to do engineering in the absence of sharp skills. I had to fake-i

Yeah, I get where you're coming from. I agree that this technology is really neat. I love the creative computer science. I think this may be the ultimate driving force behind krypto. It's inspiring. It has poetry and romance. It&#

This seems like a bug, not a feature. Personally I have Authenticator for day to day use, a Yubikey for restoring access if something happens to my phone, and backup codes.

I doubt employers just won't hire. That would be self defeating. They'll look to protect their trade secrets in other ways, mainly through aggressive enforcement of non-disclosure agreements.

I don't believe that you are going to do all that screening before talking to the best candidates. It's just not true. You wouldn't invest like that in every candidate to submit a resume. Your process is like everybody elses:

Yes, I agree. Skype is even worse, maybe just because it's older and has been neglected longer.
