I don’t look at the solutions at all since I am a stubborn person, and if takes way more than others to achieve 200 questions. I have an interview scheduled with Google for end of February. Please encour
There’s a teammate who recently got promoted to sde2. The thing with him is that he works a lot. By a lot I mean works 12hours a day and even on weekends.

On A+ team but one person is aggressive in being an over-achiever. Ex: likes to work insane hours to show off (not necessary), likes to butt into other projects and take over, dominates team conversations, etc. This sets an unrealistic bar for junior members. How to handle?
My goal is to save up $10M and live off the interest for the rest of my life. What are your ideas on how I can achieve this? I'm open to risky ideas that make it happen faster, slow/steady ideas, etc. I just need to make sure I'm making the best decisions with each passing day. Current TC: $150

That's why having 3 year tenure at Amazon is one of the most prestigious achievements in tech. Nobody is impressed by a Googler or other coasting tech worker who slept at work for 3 years. Surviving Amazon can only be done by real men 💪 mere boys can't do it 👶 TC 400k No state tax, sorry poors it

Will Twitter ever achieve the status/prestige that comes with FAANG? Sure, stock has recently grown but the company is so slow on rolling things out and revenue never really seems to be a priority. Leadership seems... Inexperienced. Ads product is still shit.
Good job, family, house, savings. Few other things. I'm not sure what's supposed to be next and it's demotivated me. I was so motivated and engaged previously. House was the last one. But now what? I wouldn't say I'm depressed. Just... listless and bored? I'm not sure what's next.
As everyone is an expert here on international affairs, I am trying to understand what Hamas tried to achieve with this attack? Did they think they could defeat Israel and gain independence? Strategically this attack doesn't make sense. I am not arguing who is right/wrong here. But Hamas would hav

Managers: Are there two forms of PIPs at your company? One meant to be unachievable and push a person out and another that is achievable and for someone who just needs a bit of straightening out.

I have multiple sr. Engineers and one of them is a solo player and an over achiever.. he is not the best mentor to other sr or Jr Engineers. He swoops into any large project and gets it done in no time which leaves other sr.Engineer in the project frustrated because they don't get to flex. His hab
