Surpass in what exactly? Authoritarianism? Idiots spewing nonsense to collect their paychecks.

Yeah, "solving puzzles". If that's the case, surely it can wait - why does it need to be solved at 2 am? Anyway, if you're gonna be a slave for $200k please go ahead, its yo choice.

On call typically means you gotta be online and respond within 15 minutes if paged. That's abusive. If you want a person to do that, then pay them for that. As an example, on call in Amazon works the way I described, and yes it is abus

Your second paragraph is spot on. When ever I login I see random sheet contents and equally sheet comments. Give me a resume hosting + job post/search site any day.

You don't "read" these type of information. You make them up to look good.

Yeah right, every damn thing is because of someone else. Start taking responsibility for your actions.

Its very easy to understand. Broadly speaking, in any culture you'll find two types of people. 1. Those who question existing systems and accept the historical truths even if it doesn't paint their own identity in good light. 2. T

Irrelevant where the word comes from. You're indulging in revisionism to make yourself look good. Caste system has been in existence for no less than 2000 years.

For a start, do you have a better method? Let us know which country is "not totally corrupt" and why is it so? Checks and balances in any system reduces efficiency and places a lower limit on how bad things can get. On the topic o

Strongly disagree. I am not an American, but I am aware about Hong Kong, but know nothing about, say, Burkina Faso. The reason is pretty simple - HK is going downhill (from my perspective) while there isn't much of a change in Burkina

Your coworker likely moved in privileged circles and therefore experienced less corruption in their home country. I say this as a relatively rich person residing in a poor country. The poor and lower sections of people here bear the brunt o

History repeats itself because: 1. People reproduce and die. The lessons learnt cannot be transmitted to the future generation in an error free way. Also, any such "lesson learnt" can be questioned. For example, how can be sure th

Yes, you are over thinking. Maintain your current setup as long as possible. If at job#1, there is an indication by managers that you're not meeting expectations, then drop job#2. If it helps, read a bit of history to see how your tran
