They already change schedules though, we just launder it through the time “change” despite clear evidence of costs in both productivity and literal human life.
Changing your working hours means a talk with your boss and maybe HR. If we didn’t have DST maybe it would be a box you check when you get hired.
We spend so much on engineering systems that handle DST changes, there’s an increase in sleep deprived auto accidents, people die from heart attacks… All to avoid individuals asking for different hours at work?
Sorry, “changing” time twice a year is not a reasonable substitute for scheduling work appropriately depending on the season.
I've been watching the development of YouTube music for the last several years knowing my preferred platform's days were numbered.
YouTube Music fills the needs of some, perhaps many users, but it is not a 1:1 replacement and I'm not a fan of what they have to offer.
Also I hold a bit of resentment for YTM since the YouTube app no longer allows backgrounding podcast-style content or playing it with the screen locked. It tells you to go to YouTube Music instead but that's definitely not the right UX for watching/listening to that kind of content.
> I can sift a pile of 20-30 resumes in maybe 10 minutes and determine with near certainty the 20% or so that are even worth contacting.
Devil's Advocate: Do you contact the bottom 80%? When you encounter a dud in the top 20%, do you consider that a potential failure in filtering, or do you say "thank god we filtered out the other 80% who must be worse than this candidate!"
It sounds to me like a process rife with feedback loops.
Honestly if they're chained to this godawful scroll-based animation garbage they keep pumping out, I'd much rather the understated 2D graphics they're using here. The 3D looks incredibly amateurish to me.
> Unexpectedly, it turned out to be faster for users too.
I'm not anti-touchscreen by any measure, but did you really find that surprising? It seems common knowledge to me that keyboard shortcuts are faster than touchscreens for most tasks.
> Culture fit does make a lot of sense though. I interviewed at a company where everyone was a gamer. Would I have fit in? Probably not. Another company everyone looked about 25 or younger.
I play video games. I have all of the last two generations of consoles, a smattering of older consoles I've managed to hold onto over the years (lost most of them for one reason or another) and a half-decent gaming PC where I prefer to play games if possible. On top of that I've done game development on the side, and have run multiple gaming communities for approximately a decade now.
If I went to go interview with a company and they talked about how they were all "gamers", I'd be running for the hills.
You know what I want to do at work? Work.
You know what I want to talk about at work? Not video games.
You know what I want for non-monetary compensation? Not a weekly autochess tournament or PUBG squad night.
You know what kind of people I want to be surrounded with? Not a bunch of clones who all have the same beliefs and values and (lack of) experiences.
> But more to the point, 'vulns' seems like a very unnatural abbreviation. I would go with v11n (similar to i18n).
Please no. I really don't like that convention and would rather you just type out the whole word if that's the alternative. Worse yet, for some reason you've decided to end in `n` rather than `y`.
How can you dismiss the first four letters as an "unnatural" abbreviation, and then suggest inserting digits to represent the number of characters removed as an alternative? I'm not following that logic at all.
