I suspect most FAANGS have some kind of RSU vesting acceleration due to death. Amazon accelerates two years of RSUs upon death.

Holding t-bills means you pay neither state nor local taxes, so the net difference is likely larger than 0.75% depending on where you live.

I’ve done lots with AWS and really only ever used GCP to configure Google SSO. I was really surprised by how much button clicking is required in GCP vs. AWS. In AWS, you create the root account, provision a service account, and then all AWS

Zipcar charged me for getting a parking ticket. The ticket was given for returning/parking the car in the “only Zipcars can park here” reserved spot on the street. The problem was that Zipcar had not applied the Zipcar sticker to their

TripleByte changed my (professional) life. Around 2019, I was in a bit of a professional lull but knew just enough coding to be dangerous. I got roped into the TripleByte funnel through a Reddit ad, which eventually culminated in moving out

You’re partially right that it’s not about memorizing solutions; it’s about committing patterns to memory. I well doubled my income after using SRS to master leetcode/algo/ds patterns. Implementing SRS was a catalytic moment in my

IMO there’s a large overlap in the venn diagram of Redditors who are good at churning and Redditors who spreadsheet their way to retirement. For example, the podcast I linked to in another comment is from a guy who is FIRE’d.

Everything I know, I learned from /r/churning. Although it can be pretty intimidating as a newbie; I was a lurker for a ~year before I was comfortable enough to start hitting SUBs. If you're specifically interested in Japan

It's very possible when you play in 2 player mode and maximize your "pennies per point" redemptions. We're doing the $60k in flights to Japan, hotels for the extended family for 2 weeks (another several $thousand), and

I was also intrigued by that quote and find it rather dubious. Coincidentally today, I and 5 other family members are boarding business class international flights worth ~$60k cash, paid for with signup bonus points. This doesn’t even inclu

According to an oncologist I spoke with, there are “shedders” and “non-shedders,” i.e. whether a tumor sheds DNA into the bloodstream or not. Apparently I’m a non-shedder :/

Can anyone recommend a good methodology for writing tests against a Playwright scraping project? I have a relatively sophisticated scraping operation going, but I haven’t found a great way to test methods that are dependent on JavaScript in

I’m sure there are exceptions, but ime chemoradiation is often still the most effective treatment, statistically. There’s also no such thing as “risk free” immunotherapy, e.g. it can occasionally result in colitis and other unpleasantries.

Probably an unpopular, "grass is always greener" opinion, but this is why leetcode-style interviews can be a good thing at FAANG. Anyone with time and an internet connection can gain experience with data structures and algorithms
