I think the answer has to do with calls to action and the assumption users make that the cursor hand is a link to another web page or another part of the site, while not all buttons are hyperlinks. Probably not as much of an argument in the

They are a moving target, but my org has them pretty closely pinned to 2hrs of "work time" per point, at least ideologically. When you see that go from 12-18ish in person per person to 30+ (~38 average consistently for me), it&#x2

I have worked more (and harder, quantifiable by sprint points if you must have a number) in the past year from home than in the entire rest of my career combined. My close ones tell me I'm just making "the man" more money, bu

In all stock deals, how much does that end up being? Like 1 share Apple per 1000 stock options of the startup?

A rural small town judge probably doesn't have the best insight into that, just that Corporal Bubba said he calibrated it so it must've been right. I know, this is exceedingly cynical.

When the officer shows up and swears under oath that he "calibrated it that morning" it's not so easy. :shrug:

There should be a fourth fear in the "Giving Up" section: giving up a decent to great salary when being mediocre cuts it just fine in a lot of positions.

It's got nothing to do with Robinhood. If a hedge decides to cover the short so they don't have to admit defeat and go bankrupt, then the entire market goes down because they'll end up selling thousands of unrelated shares fo

This isn't directly related, but some of the credit reporting agencies can have surprise medical bills written off due to covid related hardships. This is to say, if a surprise bill happens to hit collections, and you're affected

They don't actually care about the little people. It's more about keeping the company in check so it doesn't become a monopoly for retail thumb traders faster than the next closest competitors in that category can catch up (w

True actual coding? 2-3 hours on average, and usually at night when all others are offline (8pm-1am window). All the other BS like emailing, meetings, assisting with manual testing, responding to support related Slacks, fire fighting, setti

Absolutely. Angular / React was very much an east coast / west coast thing for awhile, as one example. Cypress was officed at ATDC at Georgia Tech (now downtown), so a lot of companies and startups in metro Atlanta adopted it and
