This is awesome! But I don't think you need to say never to all those display settings. You just need to go to Battery -> Options, and "Prevent automatic sleeping on power adapter when the display is off", and wake for network access when on power adapter.
It does seem off but it's directly from the Department of Labor data. The DOL LCA filings often have these misreportings where the hourly rate field is entered incorrectly, or an extra digit is added. Data cleanliness is still a huge issue, I'm realizing after working on this project.
Thinking about adding an outlier removal or flagging feature to get the obvious ones out.
Seems like this might be a data entry error in the DOL LCA filings. We are presenting the data as is, but can flag it to remove it. It does seem like a clear error, where it an extra digit was entered, or the hourly rate field was filled incorrectly.
And to clarify, this is a separate page, and separate data from the Levels.fyi total compensation data. I also doubt the US Department of Labor was reporting wages in Rupees lol, but it does seem like an error. Will take a look, and see if we can add some sort of outlier removal.
Working on revamping our calculator page on Levels.fyi to make it more useful to see refreshers and stock growth over time. Check it out at https://levels.fyi/calculator/
This reminds me of the structure used at many high frequency trading firms today. The nature of the work in quant work is different and likely much easier to tie to financial output. But the bonuses can sometimes even go up to 5x the base: https://www.levels.fyi/company/Hudson-River-Trading/salaries...

Wow, this is crazy to hear about! Back in college I worked on a fun way to share snippets of music with friends directly in iMessage called RapBits (essentially audio gifs). I reached out to Adam Leibsohn who was the COO of Giphy at the time. He immediately replied to my cold email excited about the idea and offered to help. He also asked about how we were handling legal. We didn't have an answer, in fact UMG had basically threatened to shut our app down in a meeting we had with them in LA originally thinking it'd be a great partnership meeting (the music industry kinda sucks). Really appreciated his response in that moment, he basically told us to keep going and see what we could do with it and just have fun!
Kind of wild to see such a fun / not-so-serious seeming product have such a huge exit and profound impact on the way we communicate now
