  1. "H1B isn't take that much job"

    When is YC going to add "This account is based in..." like X has?

  2. I apply to embedded/controls engineer roles and get nothing back.
  3. Besides like trello asana redmine or the millions of less-complicated competitors? You literally have developers work on their own modules directly from the spec or work directly with the product owner. You track their work by looking at their commits. You check their progress by looking at how the preview build / staging looks. No overhead of having developers flesh out an entire issue/story (plus sub-issues) and then move it column-to-column across the entire Kanban board. Tracking sub-issues is like counting half-pennies instead of rounding up.
  4. The dead comment replying to this said "Start your own company," which I hear a lot. The problem is, the #1 thing YC looks for in a founder is they're wealthy enough to absorb risk. You don't take on massive risk from a position of financial insecurity.
  5. Getting replaced by H1Bs after a year and then being out of work for six months (because ageism), four times in a row--that'll do it! Especially now since H1Bs replacing you makes you look like a job-hopper so your job search becomes more impossible every time.
  6. So hire me then. I only apply to in-office jobs in NYC and only get an immediate No. No interviews. I'm as qualified as OP.
  7. Is the "fact" in the room with you right now?
  8. JIDF was a geocities website by a random rabbi in his basement
  9. "The irony is with those who believe that thievery is wrong. She obviously didn't believe what she wrote because her actions reveal she believed in stealing your stolen property back from a thief, which is itself thievery."
  10. "was getting" doesn't necessarily imply that she got away with it; "got" implies that.
  11. "ACCIDENTALLY" AHAHAHHAHAHAHHA AH AHAHHA HHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHA OMFG LOL
  12. It was an era where Team Foundation Server was just oops corrupting entire codebases
  13. High EQ correlates with manipulativeness and sociopathic behavior. So maybe their success can be chalked up to their willingness to sell out and kiss evil's ass.
  14. Right, the reason a certain demographic can't get hired right now is because they aren't smart or hard-working.
  15. Coinbase froze everyone's accounts (to prevent a selloff) while cashing in on insider knowledge that they were going to start supporting Bitcoin Cash. Then as soon as they sold off and the market dipped, they unfroze everyone's account. But instead of being in jail, they just keep getting away with it.
  16. tl;dr "Unexpected things that share in the concept of corporate personhood when faced with a similar need for an accountability sink: Ships and some public land in the third world"
