Netflix, NVIDIA, Airbnb, Block, Dropbox, Pinterest, and Stripe are the only ones that I know of. Are there others? #meta
I’m a 40 year old male. I am about 20 pounds overweight. I feel healthy overall, and I do pretty intense exercise 4 to 5 times a week (crossfit). Recently, I noticed I was going soft during the middle of intercourse, so I checked my testosterone levels. Free testosterone is 10.01 (normal), but tot...Read more
Post frequently, post often. Make sure that when these people are on their deathbeds that they are haunted by the fact that they didn’t even speak out against genocide, literally the bare minimum that can be done. Let them know the blood of the Palestinian people is on their hands because they at be...Read more

In a conversation with Secretary of State Antony Blinken, U.S Senator Mitt Romney asks Blinken why Israel is getting such bad PR during their genocide in Gaza. Blinken responds basically by saying because the Palestinians are posting images, videos, and live streams of their genocide on social media...Read more
I don’t know anyone who uses tik tok and wants to move to china. It seems like this “Chinese propaganda” scare is really a cover up for exposing the Israeli genocide. If you agree with the ban, why do you hate free speech? Or do you only want it when it benefits your narrative? Seems like tik tok ...Read more
He’s a bro-type jock East Asian, and I’m Vietnamese (which is Southeast Asian).

Female, been living in the states for more than 8 years. Still don’t have the American accent. I want to fit in more with the American culture. Any suggestions on how to dress/ act/ talk to fit in? No trolls please.
Myth1: it’s a hyper-growth startup and therefore has lots of growth opportunities for an engineer. - No. The first part may be true, but the promo velocity here is slower than Google due to reasons like not having a culture of growing people, uncontrolled favoritism, randomly high bar for promos. M...Read more
So I interviewed at Google and got stuck in team matching. One of my former colleagues who works there (and referred me) says things have completely changed, morale is super low, layoffs every week, place being run by consultants. Is this true googlers? Does leadership have any vision or path for t...Read more
The stock market is a Ponzi scheme now. To fund old investors they have to print new money. Else moment old investors start taking out; the market starts crumbling and they have to print money. To print money they need reasons and hence the mindless wars.

Fast forward a few years, except for me (a white girl) and a Hispanic guy, the rest of my team (12 folks) is Indian. A few of the things they do are borderline unprofessional and show a clannish minds...Read more
