I just hit 3 years of experience exactly last month. Leading up to the milestone, I've been receiving cold dms for AI roles adjacent to what I'm working on from both FAANG, quant and start up firms. The comp range for these position is often 40-50% more than what I'm making in both cash and stock (currently I get 300k in the Bay Area.) Is now the best time for me to move?
How would you compare the tech job options in East Bay vs South Bay? What about working hours?
> But from the east bay, I BART'ed to both Berkeley and San Francisco, which beat the daylights out of commuting by auto.
Would you say this is more true for hybrid arrangement or also for full RTO?

I've been living in South Bay for work (tech/AI) and family/relative (cheap rent, lower cost of living, convenience). I want to eventually settle down and get my own house in the Bay because my family lives here but torn between living and working in SF short term vs South Bay.SF pros:- Bigger AI scene, younger people, more cool network and job opportunities at the frontier of AISF cons:- Low...
It makes them seem unlike Microsoft Windows and Google Analytics and win points with their customer base.
>It's like they're trying to trick the press into covering it before anyone can actually test it
Yep, when big guys like the NSA claimed to delete all data collected without releasing any details, I'm sure at best they drag and drop a few files into Recycle_Bin.
>Facebook tracks virtually every website you visit
How can I know that I'm infected? How to disinfect myself and feed them false info?
It runs fine on Manjaro xfce for me.
What was the password that they found?
How does it work? Asking since I'm a Firefox user.
SOO, Is there a browser add-on for me to fix this?
I'm still using DuckDuckGo as main though.
Why does macOS need this? (Asking because I'm not a mac user)
> The voice of "those who care" has always been a minority
To add to this, people who cares most powerfully had probably switched to alternative, open source, software solutions. This leaves the remaining group with less "care" on average so fewer would complain. Kinda like evaporative cooling.
I'm in East Bay, can I have a link?
So, are there anyone already doing this? From the attitude towards Comcast, it looks like there will be lots of funding from people dying to get a better alternative.
>As a reader, I am annoyed that Medium puts two dick bars on the page so it is hard to read.
This, I remember blocking those bars a month ago with uBlockOrigin. It was very, very annoying the first time around now that you reminded me.
Is this libreboot friendly?
Can you link to the vid that got you fired?

I've been learning C and assembly through textbooks its exercises for 4 months. I did well in exams but when I try to look at coding challenges like Project Euler, I felt like I haven't learned anything at all.So, how long it took you to master the art? What would you have done to shorten that time?
Are there tells of race, sex discrimination?
Anyone else experiencing some crazy lay with the site?
Is there much different between uBlock origin vs Ad Block Plus?
Beware the crappy link laced with popup ads and trackers.
