Then you shouldn't be asking those questions in the first place.
Why do you want a job?, Why do you want to relocate?, Why do you want to work here?, etc. are BS "no-op" questions that are not relevant to the skills that they are promoting.
If an interviewer asks these types of questions, they are literally showcasing that this part of the interview is a BS "Subordinate yourself to the desires of capital in all areas" conversation. You will predictably get the "no-op" answers you asked for.
The interviewer always sets the tone of the meeting. You can't complain when they chose to play along. If you want a real conversation, you need to make it amply clear.
By Reddit's own admission, that's literally 98% of users.
Most of the incoming traffic never engage with the post in any way. This is true of most social sites. That's where the term 'lurker' comes from.
It doesn't work as straightforward as that.
To have a healthy immigration channel, especially if you want younger/educated/skilled/etc. the pipeline needs to be active and streamlined. Jobs, housing, a well-beaten path that is predictably navigable is incredibly important for a migrant, since they're taking a lot of risks moving there.
If this referendum blocks EU movement, it will choke the pipeline that's filling positions that takes in a high amount of immigrants like healthcare, agriculture, etc. Once it dies out, people may not be as willing to move if they're the one paving the path.
Historically, the US has been quite successful in this area. Migrants from Philippines dominate nursing, Mexico for agriculture and Chinese/Indians for Sotware/Medical.
The migration path has to be vastly superior to their current living for this to work, if they want the same immigration. Or else, it will be mostly people who are truly in a terrible situation who'd be willing to take a chance.
Assignments, sure. But if tests/exams are proctored in-person with pen and paper, the students may quickly pivot to traditional learning methods if they want to pass their courses.
> - AI-native pods: We’ll be concentrating around AI-native talent who can manage fleets of agents to drive outsized impact. We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including “one person teams” with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role.
And then this person leaves, leaving no documentation or workflow. That's ok though, another ai agent will pick up right back and add slop on top of that until the codebase is a black box interacting with another black box.
Oh and this company handles other people's money? That's going to end well.
The average life expectancy in the 1920s, even in India, was most definitely not 21-25 years. Various sources show the expectancy age as 51-57. This is because there wasn't enough data for this.
Except now you also team up with people who are adept at sales, marketing, accounting, etc. now to form a cooperative instead of a corporation. Maybe workers can get back some of the rights and fruits of their labor.
This is funny, because these exact same things were great filters to eliminate BS candidates. It's always the ones who talk a big game who tend to be the worst when the tire meets the road.
Some of the absolute best candidates were always the ones with a github that hadn't seen a commit in half a decade, nary a presentation or conference mentioned in their cv. This was true at two different FAANGs and a couple of other FAANG-adjacent companies.
Exactly!
I was in university around that time. Our team project needed a non-public repo for us to sync to. Free/Personal Github at the time did not allow for private repos, so I just used my Dropbox folder as the "server". Worked well enough for a bunch of students to use that as a centralized repo.
That's comparing Apples to tortoises.
If an investor wants to invest/gamble on a startup, it's their prerogative.
Same as if Bob's uncle wants to give him a small loan to buy into a franchise.
I still expect both of them to pay rightful living wages to their employees.
Owner's business problems are not the employees problem
What happens when private industry colludes to decide what "market" wages are?
This has literally happened even in Big Tech, leading to lawsuits within the last decade.
If a business can't pay a person working full time to satisfy their basic needs, their business model is not viable. If they can and don't pay so, it's plain exploitation.
Ex. Walmart employees can't support themselves and rely on social services despite having a full time job.
Firefox has been far faster for me than chrome ever was (I have way too many tabs open that the same number would make chrome chug).
It is also an interesting take to have while defending a browser that is actively hostile to the user.
So you want talented individuals to come in to prop up the economy for decades with their output, but forbid them trying to establish a normal family life in the country?
To be clear, ANY US Citizen or Permanant Resident can eventually bring in some families after an arduous and long process.
This is a non-existent issue with H1-B.
The current wait times for an H1-B from the Rest of the World(ROW) is around 10+ years to be a citizen.
For India/China/Mexico, it's around 12-27 years to become a Permanent Resident if they applied for their I-140 before 2020.
If they applied after 2020, it's currently estimated at 34-75 years!
Oracle is the one to look out for if/when the bubble bursts. Most of the big tech will be fine, albeit hurting for a while. For Oracle, this might be existential.
