I don't know what kind of an egregious organization the WHO is. First they let millions of people consume sugar alternatives for years, if not decades. Then they release a report saying those alternatives may lead to premature deaths. At this point, I feel like saying, F** it. I'm just gonna consume whatever the f** I feel like without ever reading about or listening to anything in the news.
Lower ranked US universities will grant admission to anyone who can afford their fees. Majority of the people coming to the US are from tier 3/4 colleges in their home country. There are few states in this particular country that have consultancies submitting thousands of student applications. Everything is taken care of - from the application form filling to preparing SOPs and letters of recommendation. Always a good idea to understand the ground reality before jumping to conclusions.
This always gets stated - "Removing roadblocks". But if the engineer isn't removing roadblocks on their own and collaborating with other teams, then they get labeled as "lacking initiative". People managers really don't deserve a place in the software industry. More often than not, they are the real roadblocks.
The 2 most important traits that managers desire are agreeability and subservience. Never argue with them. Even the slightest of power corrupts humans.
I'm getting "too many requests in an hour" error. Barely using Google for day to day tasks anymore. This thing is addictive and fast. Was able to set up a jest/rtl playground within seconds. I'm sure Google would have directed me to some outdated SEO crap.
If this turns out to be true, I hope it's a watershed moment in the tech industry. Lots of middle management in other companies will be sweating since they'll need to do something better than just asking "hey, when do you think this can be done?".
I wonder if this has any effect on the deposit sweeping programs run by firms like robinhood, betterment and wealthfront. They promise 4%+ yields with freedom to take out your cash any time. A quick look at their partner program banks suggests they more or less transfer the deposits to the same set of banks.
This is like comparing the code written by an experienced 20 year veteran to the code written by a fresh graduate. Give it time, India will catch up. Lot of people in the comments taking a dig at the work ethic of people in India when most of them will cry a river if asked by their employer to RTO 2 days a week.
You don't need to "guess" how much to pay someone. The market dictates that. HR has pay bands. Raises are always in a narrow band. I don't know what kind of disputes you're talking about.
If you ask any manager - describe your responsibilities succinctly, they will most inevitably fail to do so.
Management is just a way to coast. I don't understand why we need to "manage" grown up adults. What we need are team leads who code and architect. Then give them the autonomy to run teams.
