I've spend about 2 years of full time work on the bot. In the end it was not worth it in monetary terms (was making maybe $1000 per month while requiring very heavy support), but it rekindled my interest in maths and programming. Also, the experience gained allowed me to catch some highly paid long-term contracts (most of them boring as hell). Now I spend maybe 60% of my time doing those and 40% regaining my sanity, toying with side-projects etc. I'm dreaming of switching to doing interesting work as a full-time job (as opposed to a hobby), but the competition in such fields (computer vision etc.) seems to be dramatically higher than in what I do for money today. I'll probably do the switch in the next couple of years anyway, as I'm slowly approaching mini-FU money.

Except none of that would matter if some rando on promo committee (at Google) or just your skip-manager elsewhere (that you don't have access to) can't see value for whatever reason. OP doesn't even begin to scratch the surface of all the fuckery that was going on with Google's promo committees which is why they recently moved away from that for <L5 promos.
How Not to Apply for a Job
Managed to convince my existing employer to let me work remotely fulltime. Moved oversees and kept working for them for two years.

Posted in the monthly freelancer thread on HN and was emailed by a guy with some work that was also remote and switched to working for them.

I'd say the easiest way to get a remote job first, then you can move wherever you want, timezone permitting.

The project itself is a web application (not a marketing site) that will have be used by people who are looking for jobs. We are big on cultivating agency and helping people align with their values, so that will be a theme of our thinking and work.

We are thinking about this as a product residency where you will work and think with us at our office, fit into our product development process, and be supported completely through the project.

Please email me at chris at underdog.io if you're interested in finding out more.

SEEKING WORK - Berlin, Germany or Remote (originally from NYC, can make trips to US east coast)

Experienced full stack Ruby and Javascript developer with work history focused on startups. Some big company (e.g. NY Times, Cleversafe), small business and agency experience as well. Most of my experience is with Rails and/or Angular but I've also worked with node.js, React and Sinatra. Not dev-ops per say but I have experience managing deployments with AWS, Digital Ocean, Rackspace and Heroku.

A lot of my projects have involved helping startups get to an MVP or from an MVP to product-market-fit but I'm also not shy to jump into legacy code. Really I'm open to any project that sounds interesting, let's talk. Lots of client facing experience as well, great at communicating with the business side. As well as picking up the slack when design resources are short.

Fun post, but I'd argue that china chose is somewhere between the Order and Autocracy ideologies. For starters, while Mao Zedong laid a different set of plans (more similar to the Order branch of Civ5) than most rebel leaders, he was, for the most part, an autocratic leader.[1] They've had a more democratic approach as of late, but it appears that Xi Jinping seems to be turning China into an autocracy once again[2]. It's very interesting to me because for the most part, past Autocratic methods put military development at the forefront and left Technological development as more an afterthought. This seems pretty contradictory to the groundwork China has been laying during the past 30 or so years, placing a lot of value in M&S and installing technocrats to leadership positions[3].

But there are important differences between humans and animals. Since we are talking about populations of organisms (e.g. all pigs and all humans) the boundaries can look rough and fuzzy, but not so fuzzy that you can claim there is a continuous spectrum of organisms from any given animal species to humans. You can't just raise or teach a particularly gifted chimpanzee to be a human because there are vast biological differences, one of which is our unmatched talent for putting ideas into each other's heads. Therefore, despite the many similarities between humans and various animal species, it's fair to say that we are separate from animals.

This doesn't mean it's okay to treat animals badly, and there are still good and moral justifications for veg*ism even if you accept that humans and animals are separate, but I think it's important to resist the temptation to ascribe human qualities to animals. We really are separate.

I'm not sure that's as good an idea as you think. Even LE has designed ACME to ideally be replicated elsewhere. The big problem with having only one CA is that if they get compromised or go down, that's the entire internet. For good reason, it's not like you can launch a CA in a day, so we will always need a few horses in this race. Culling the herd isn't a bad idea, but without some diversity any issue could be catastrophic.
Doordash has frequent system-wide outages.

https://twitter.com/DoorDash_Help

During their outages your items will never arrive, your order may still appear as active and customer support may handle your case in 48 hours. Plus, their outage messages are misleading.

On the other hand, Amazon almost never has outages, you can live chat with support at any moment, and if they're slightly late they will even give you money.
So, I have this vague hand wavy idea that Australians are citizens of the crown, so they can go to the UK at will without jumping through bureaucratic hoops. This likely does not apply to an American.

Can you (or anyone) clarify that detail or speak to this issue? Because my suspicion is that an American would likely need a job offer in order to apply for the right kind of visa. In the US, if you show up on a tourist visa and then want to get a job or marry an American, that is apparently not kosher, from what I gather.
> Did you find and contact specific companies?

That is an option. Companies I have been working for have hired people that contacted directly. If you want to come to Stockholm, these are some companies I know people in:

- https://king.com/sv/jobs?locations=stockholm&roles=all
- https://www.netent.com/en/section/work/
- https://www.spotifyjobs.com/

If you know the company you want to work for, just apply for that.
But before that, make sure that you like the culture, weather, city, etc. where you are moving in.
If you know which city or country, but not wich company, other methods are probably better that investigating company by company.

A good option is to work for an international company with cross-country secondment offers. I did this. I worked for a company in my country of origin, and then applied for a position in another company. It was quite easy.

We participate in European research projects contributing to open source solutions and have time to play and experiment. We all use degooglized Chromebooks, have a flat hierarchy, paperless offices and no meetings. We hack in Python and (vanilla) JavaScript, plus golang and C if needed.
To me this looks like a way to provoke even more international backlash and perpetuate an image of Russia as a "sieged stronghold" in the eyes of its people.

Come to think of it since it worked last time, why shouldn't it now?
> What do you think, that the chinese govt purposefully makes their peoples lives miserable?

To maintain a dictatorship you have to terrify the people from time to time. Every dictator - that we have a recorded history of behavior for - of the last century has frequently used fear to maintain their power. Read the history of dictators as diverse as Hussein, Hitler, Stalin, Mugabe, Pinochet, Franco, Ceaușescu, etc. They all used the seeming random application of terror/fear upon the population and their competitors to retain control.

Xi has been using frequent applications of fear the last five years. That's how he acquired the power he now has. He implemented a "corruption" purge, targeting powerful opponents seemingly at random. They never know who is next. The same thing has been going on in the economic sphere, as they arrest people for "economic crimes" - nobody in the business sphere knows who will be disappeared or charged next. This behavior will get a lot worse now that Xi has formally consolidated power.
I work for the government (for now). We write our own performance evaluation annually (a simple Word document template), with a list of projects completed, and a list of systems that we maintain (and associated maintenance tasks). We also have a section for personal/professional development to keep track of training, education, and self-improvement. It is nice to reflect on what I have done over the past year.

That being said, the performance review is basically a formality. We have 5 steps in each pay grade, and I have never seen someone miss a step after each year. Someone could be sitting at their desk reading their Kindle all day and still get their 5% jump every year. In addition to that, nearly 100% of promotions are based on tenure. You will probably go from a level 1 --> 2 --> 3 --> Senior every year, and supervisory/management positions are only opened upon the incumbent's retirement (to be filled typically by the most tenured person to apply, regardless of fit).

It is not a good system. Lots of people stick around who should receive the boot, and the wrong people are placed in supervisory/management positions simply because they have been there for a while.
