I had a coworker that called himself Coin Operated Ken. 100% mercenary. Dude made bank and retired early.

Pretty sure he's talking about roles that pay close to seven figures TC, not a paper money startup.

Exactly! She was the one instrumental in publicizing this shitty way of hiring. Or course she could care less about the damage caused because she cashed in, actually still is.

I'm not stressed whatsoever since I interview not needing a job. So zero stress, still don't get FAANG offer lol.

Tangential question: how are people using GenAI for financial datasets for insights and recommendations? Assume tens of desparate databases with financial data. Does NL2SQL work well for this? Or OpenAI Tools (formerly OpenAI Functions)? What have you found that is consistently accurate?

The building, largely made possible with $80 million in state funding, will train students, especially in Imperial County, to extract lithium from the ground near the Salton Sea so it can be used to produce batteries for electric vehicles and other devices.

Seriously, could have been way more clear and concise: "we over hired". But that would indicate that he dropped the ball. He's certainly not the type of CEO that would take personal responsibility. #loser

Having a great diet and exercise are easy when you’re not in the rat race. Super rats are able to do both but that requires fortitude, which a majority of the population lacks (lotta soft people these days).
