I've heard quite a few anecdotal reports of FFQ being slow on certain websites. I've had no such issues, and in fact really like Quantum. I've used FF for a long, long time. I may be biased. Edit: Had no slow-downs or hang up

Very broad and vague question I am having trouble beginning to answer. 1) Are you assuming all price increases are due to being "aggressive"? 2) What industries are you talking? Purely tech? 3) What groups / age range /

I can't specifically speak to this, but I would like to chime in with one thing: A lot of your post reminds me of the common traits of Imposter Syndrome [1]. Even if you are actually below the norm, you may be exaggerating the gap thro

It's hard to make any recommendations without a bit more information. 1) Where do you find your view of the phone interview going from optimistic to feeling it's gone awry? 2) Are the positions you are applying for well within you

Or I read the question, and mistakenly assumed DiskCryptor worked with Linux without confirming. Oops.

I personally use DiskCryptor, but I am not super up-to-date on the best programs for encryption/decryption. DiskCryptor does the job for me. Easy to use, open source.

I understand where your coming from and I'm sure theres a happy medium. Doing just money or just enjoyment wont work as well as a proper balance. But, to play devils advocate... Having worked in a high paying, crap job and moving into

What is questionable, imo, is this worldview which you and another have mentioned. What a sad way to live, fulfilling other peoples needs in exchange for 0's, instead of trying to fulfil your needs for intellectual growth, joy, etc. wh

I feel really sorry for you and your friends who spend your lives doing what you don't enjoy for the sake of some 0's on your bank account. Also, I'm not saying go pick flowers for a living. But you should at least enjoy what

If you ever want to truly be held as an expert, you should be doing what you _enjoy_ most. Not for money, not for job security. Purely enjoyment. The rest will follow.

I agree 100% and think that OP __should__ absolutely be able to approach a coworker and mention this sort of thing. But, in the OP's interest (assuming OP wants to keep job in good standing) I made my recommendations. "Business se

I disagree with this, and would be very cautious of doing something like this in a business setting. No matter how nicely you put it, you're going to come across as "I know more than you, I noticed this and you didnt, I can help a

IMO don't stick your nose where it don't belong. As Danso said, you could mention it to the person which the person in question reports to, and I would do so with caution and vagueness. You don't want to be seen as micromanag

I don't feel brave. I just feel happy that this conversation can be had without judgement, without trolls, without feeling badly about mentioning it. I'm not near Regina, but your offer means a lot to me. Seriously. Thank you.

Thank-you for the indepth reply! I think a lot of valuable information is there. I usually don't feel afraid of "looking lonely" but, there have been a few times I stop myself from going and grabbing a dinner at a bar /

I'm very happy to see such a lively, helpful discussion sparked from my post. May I ask what you do on the days that it is bothering you? Do you just keep going until it doesnt bother you? I find that I can do this, and have been doing

It seems like dancing is a super popular suggestion. I keep saying to myself that I'd be no good and it'd be embarassing, not to mention I'm not (never have been) a "dancer" but I'm thinking this swarm intellec
