Slightly Offtopic: People I know with Type 1 diabetes are slightly resentful of people with Type 2, and make pains to make clear that their diabetes is not the one associated with obesity and lack of exercise.
Disagree. Most of the time the company could in fact pay 2x what they thought was the top of their range for an exceptional candidate. It's a rare candidate who's in a position to take an exceptional job for 1/2 what they thought was the bottom of their range.

"Say, ‘I’m open to a salary commensurate with the job,” recommended Blake Nations, a former recruiter who was laid off and then founded Over50JobBoard.com. “And if they keep going, ask: ‘What do you expect to pay someone with my experience and education for this position?'"

This. If you're asked early on just flip the question back to them.

Companies don't publish salaries for jobs because they're afraid of turning people off from applying to the job in the first place. They know applicants are more likely to take a lower offer after they've invested time into the process and maybe have a little rapport with the interviewers. You can use the exact same strategy as a job seeker. Companies can be more likely to accept a higher ask after they've put resources into interviewing you and gotten to know you a bit.

That said, an honest chat about expectations early on - where the hirer says roughly how much they're looking to pay and asks if it's something you'd be interested in - can be a really nice way to save everyone's time.

I only use regions to categorize old/legacy code that either is going to be pulled into its own class or outright replaced with a much better implementation. I don't like to use regions since VS already makes it relatively easy to navigate to a method.
At 45 you become untouchable. Too old to be young, too young to be old. How many 50 year olds do you see in SV companies?

I knew a guy who was about 50, brilliant, brilliant engineer working for one of the big IT players. Well respected and trusted advisor to many customers. He got vaporized in some big restructuring that hit his division.

Because of non-compete and what he did, he was basically out of work for almost a year, and was stuck in career purgatory for a few years doing random contract work.
I don't think Facebook for work competes with LinkedIn's core business at all. It's a different product.
Maybe older BIOSes lacked the "genuine battery advantage" checks?
So just tell the candidate what the salary range for the position is. If that number's a dealbreaker for them, they'll let you know. Why does it always have to be the candidate who shows their cards first?

Personally, for me there are no salary-based dealbreakers. There's always room for negotiation, after both sides determine there's a good fit.
of course you do, you can sit really close to it and pretend you're at the imax :)

The main thing mex does is let you link to the matlab API libraries that are otherwise hard to get. To work around this, I like to just grab the API directly from the calling process via dlsym/GetProcAddress. That way, you can build mex libraries with any toolchain you want, even without matlab installed.
Edit: Thanks for the invite!
Vör: The New IoT Office Experience (Open-Source and Cloudless)
"ensures that candidates have reasonable expectations"

"a quick way to cull the large numbers of candidates for open jobs"

"holds down wages because now the jobs are being filled by people with lower salary expectations"

"U.S. employers continue to hold the line on wages"

"looking ahead and saying they want to keep the escalation of labor costs from going up in a way that will put pressure on earnings"

"47% of chief financial offers said they plan to work to lower or control labor costs this year, by taming compensation growth"

gauge applicants’ “level of reality"

Very interesting language in this piece.

Between culling applicants, testing their level of "reality", taming their unrealistic expectations, and holding the line, I think we can speculate that perhaps CFOs are panicking about rising wage pressure, using propaganda pieces like this one to reassure themselves, and trying hard to pressure applicants to be "realistic."

If employers want to try to save money by flying budget instead of first, they should be encouraged to do that. Maybe eventually they'll understand how that works out for them.
Just in case people are not familiar - Autodesk owns a considerable share of cad market (which is far more encompassing than just Autocad) and they've palmed few of the biggest 3D modeling suites - Maya, 3DMax and (sigh ) XSI.

Their DWG format (Autocad's native databaseformat) is a binary blob that still has a huge impact in construction industry and is a major PITA unless one is using Autocad tools.

They are a huge player with many expensive software suits. But they are not very innovative.
This is either sarcasm, or, the most perverse and backwards logic for government sanctioned security programs that I've ever seen.

The ostensible reason that the government has created the TSA and its ilk is for actual security. Claiming that it's been created to intentionally achieve security theater is quite a extraordinary claim to be making. Furthermore, the origin of danger does not come along a single axis running between "terrorism" and "people's fear of terrorism". The government programs themselves can have negative impacts (c.f. any discussion on the TSA, NSA, border controls), which you are conveniently ignoring.

Take a look at our newly released express.js-based, "swagger-matic", server runtime for Node.js.

BlueOak Server is "swagger-matic" because it maximizes the value of your Swagger API by using it to drive runtime behavior:
It loads your Swagger API, connects the paths it defines to your implementation code, exposes that API to the network, and validates that every request is well-formed per that API.

We've got a lot of value from using it on our projects, and hope you will too, or, at least your criticism will help us make it better for us :-)

Not just that. They had all these detainees that they thought were probably terrorists, but they knew they didn't have enough evidence (or at least admissible evidence) to convict them. So, between sending them court knowing a lot of them would be acquitted or letting them go back to do whatever bad stuff they were worried would happen, they just decided to hold them in limbo. They have plenty of evidence to convict Snowden in a civilian court.

Exactly. There is never a reason to tell anyone your current salary, just what you're looking for now.
A lot of threads point to the dangers and inefficiencies, as well as political motivations.

Does anyone know the economics of paving roads with cement or tar per m^2? The labor and material cost would be transferred and somewhat offset installing solar elsewhere.

I can not speak to the claims of safety, but I would imagine the decision is rational enough not to be endangering lives.
Yes. And some of these other positive comments around here are very suspicious.
And they said I was a fool to short it a couple of weeks ago.
I think the idea of exploratory work is very similar to what I mention going on in small scopes, but I think this evolution occurs at large scales, too. All the development branch isolation in the world can't and shouldn't stop this sort of broad scale evolution.
I did not mention Atom. Yes, it's also a resource hog, though the good parts offset the pain.
I've found this to be an excellent way to waste a bunch of time by getting far along in the process, only to find out near the end that the company won't make an offer that's anywhere near my requirements. While I don't like being the first to name a number, I also haven't found putting the discussion off until the end of the process to be beneficial.

I've been on the hiring side as a manager in a number of companies, and I've NEVER seen a situation where a candidate was so uniquely awesome that the company was willing to make an offer drastically larger than their normal range for that role. A bit more? Sure. Some more stock or something? Often. But not, say, 50% more salary than anyone else at that level is getting.

After many years in this industry on both the candidate and hiring manager side, I believe that it's in everyone's best interest to make sure you can at least get in the right ballpark early in the process before you waste everyone time.
Then you should share the range for the position and let the candidate decide if it's worth continuing.
I guess that's true; I just finished building an SPA and the server code was saner -- but only because there was so much less of it. But overall the project is messier.

Linkedin is a terrible company, I've always resisted making a profile there because I think that to support a company like that in name is to give them a free pass on their despicable behavior. No matter though, I still receive their spam on a daily basis, but that's nothing a filter rule can't take care of.
I think the threat's definitely there. Facebook wants to eat everyone's lunch, and they're basically knocking on doors in LinkedIn's neighborhood.

LinkedIn can be described at the 'Facebook for business', it doesn't feel like a stretch that faceboook might someday want to become the facebook for business.

New Airbus glider is set to become the highest-flying winged vehicle ever
I recently found myself in a stale role, and hence I've been job searching lately, so I have recent experience. From my anecdotal experience, the local job market is hot for my skill set, so I'm looking for a 10% raise. I've gotten 3 offers from 3 companies. Two would not come up to my required salary so I walked. The third came up, but it was a W2 at a contracting shop, and wasn't too appealing for a couple of reasons. So I passed on that as well. I still get pinged multiple times per week, sometimes for the same job at the same company I've already turned down, which I find a bit amusing.

Now I'm continueing the search, but openly talk about what I'm looking for salary wise, I've wasted quiet a lot of my own time this past month.
I'm a Type 1 diabetic. I recognize what you're talking about, though I wouldn't phrase it like that. It's not that I'm resentful of people with another disease, but rather the fact that two unrelated diseases have the same name, leading people to assume I've lead an unhealthy lifestyle because I have "Diabetes", while in reality I work very hard to stay healthy.

Edit: Actually, reading sibling reasonattlm's comment, I take it back. I do get a bit of resentment. I work very hard to manage my health and my incurable diabetes. It kills me to watch my obese acquaintances slowly work their way into acquiring this awful disease when it could be avoided with relatively little effort.

Because arrest does not mean convict, and his actions consisted of more than speaking out. He has publicly admitted to something that, from the surface facts, appears to be illegal (regardless of whether you think it was morally right and acceptable). As such, until convicted or exonerated, it is the job of the justice system to bring him in for trial.

It's comparable to killing someone in what you believe was self defense. You may still have to go to trial to prove your innocence if the government believes it may not have been self-defense. That is the point of the justice system, and trial by a jury of your peers.

The right to bear arms is to protect from overreach by the government. As long as government consists of representatives of the people making laws in accordance with the constitution and prior laws, there should not be a case where arms are required to defend against the state. It ensures the government cannot monopolize force.
Not super surprising. The majority of their revenue comes from recruiters, and I expect the majority of paying recruiters are in tech. So any downswing in tech will be substantially felt. Especially for a firm whose earnings are negative, losing growth is bound to be a problem.

On a related note, how much of Facebook's mobile revenue is for mobile apps? Should we expect a similar decline as the economy declines further?

I was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes in 2001, and I was assured there would be a "cure" of some sort by the time I was 30. I'm 28 now, and as far as I can tell, there's been no significant progress towards a cure. I've long since stopped paying attention to the news; my endocrinologist will let me know if something happens.

Deal Shows Investors Are Willing to Make a Blind Bet on Uber
How old are you?

I think something often unsaid in conversations about stuff like this is that ageism is rampant in the tech sector. I haven't experienced it first-hand (and I'm probably just now approaching the age where it might be a factor, and I haven't looked for a full-time job in a couple of decades), but I know several folks who have. Even when they've been willing to take lower salaries, when applying for startups, in particular, older folks often get passed over. It gets called things like "cultural fit", etc.

But, the thing is, we're talking about a "low six-figure salary" here, which is not that high for engineering work. In fact, in many markets, it's the baseline for anyone with more than a couple of years experience. I can't believe salary is the primary motivating factor, if it is a reasonable salary, well within the bounds of expected pay for people with experience.

I haven't been in the job market since I was quite young (I've run my own companies since my 20s, with some contract work along the way to make ends meet), but, I know my dad experienced this to some degree; and he was an engineer in an industry that was not nearly as ageist as high tech fields often are (he worked in the oil and gas industry). His salary climbed through his 30s and 40s, and then finding work became more difficult in his 50s, and he retired early partly due to health issues, but also because of difficulty finding good long-term work.

I don't think salary is the only factor here, especially given that most of the folks I know who've experienced this aren't insisting on making more than their peers doing the same work. The people motivated by money tend to rise up to management roles. The engineers who are driven by the desire to build things just want to make a decent salary while being in an environment where they get to build things. The most productive software engineer I think I've ever worked with was in his late 50s, and was making less than a number of developers in the company (but he had a private office and a few other perks that no one else got, and got to work on stuff that excited him, so he seemed reasonably content).

After quitting my full-time job and going independent(ish, for now) last year, I've sometimes regretted deleting my LinkedIn profile, as it's so commonly used for networking and searching for leads for job candidates.

But I agree with you that it's a terrible, and it's why I deleted my profile. I didn't even know how creepy/skeevy their business model is then, but what I did see was that their product is just BAD in so many ways, yet they survive only because they hold an unassailably dominant market position.

If you hold a monopoly position, then please, please at least make your product great. I'm looking at you, too, Craigslist. For example.
