If my options are a) two months of increasing agony followed by death and b) immediate painless death; and there was no c) option, then I think I'd rather skip the suffering, honestly. The fact that it would also mean needless spending is just icing on the cake. Let them use that hospital bed for some child with cancer.

If you choose a) I would certainly respect it. I would like my country to make your last days as comfortable as possible, with the resources available. I would certainly fight anyone who would impose b) onto you.

I only ask you do the same for me.
That's a suggestion by the analysts. As someone who has worked 100 hour weeks in finance, there is a world of difference between 80 and 100. 80 allows you to care for your health in a way that 100 doesn't and is in that way just barely sustainable.
The burn out and churn is intended. Big 4 accounting is the same way, recruit individuals straight out of college, work them 80+ hours a week, burn them out and have them move on. It’s a win-win, the employee gets a stamp on their resume which opens many doors and the employer gets cheap labor and less people moving up the ladder.
It is used maliciously in every country it is legalised. Do not underestimate a person's ability for cruelty.

Thanks for the links, some interesting stuff there! I think my end goal is to have a contained development environment whilst not being forced to use specific tools (i.e. VSCode remote debugging, eugh) and not sacrificing compilation times by running in a VM that's too slow.

From the look of it, if I were to set up the WSL2 Ubuntu GUI with RDP, that'd tick all the boxes, right? And as a bonus I'd be able to access files in WSL2 from Windows.

Any idea how WSL2 interacts with VPNs? I've seen some mixed reports around the web but this is also a must-have for me, if I can't use a VPN in my dev environment it's game over.
A "Big 4" partner explained this to me years ago. It's an intentional system designed to extract the most resources from a college graduate as possible. Some are promoted up the ranks, but most leave with the resume line item to do something else.

This has been the way for decades now.

Since they mention "junior bankers", i'd say most of it is:

- re-formatting presentations decks
- re-formatting booklets
- checking numbers
- being available

The first two to three episodes of HBO's Industry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industry_(TV_series)) reflects this well, and darkly. It is also fairly accurate w/r/t what my banker friends experienced.

Yes. (no but)

The way that our system is built, every question has (up to) three possible inputs:

A selection
An additional detail
An attachment

When we parse a questionnaire, the system picks up whether there's a selection option available and shows that accordingly. Every question can have a detail or attachment.

Recorded a quick video here to give a bit better overview:

You can also add an internal comment (by tagging someone like in Slack) to discuss with colleagues. That info stays on the internal system and doesn't get sent to the customer when the questionnaire is exported / sent off.

As a society we're just not being real about our digital divides. Your digital ability goes up and down in life, and the web HAS to be accessible to you at those lower points of ability:

While caring for (or just carrying) a child. After an injury or stroke that limits your mobility. Living with chronic conditions. Changing technology or losing access to your go-to tools. Traveling to areas with a digital divide in some way. And many more...

We've made the case for the for some sets differently abled people-- I'm hard pressed to find a developer who doesn't consider keyboard navigability for those who can't use a mouse-- but you need to rethink interactions at a base level and we're just getting started with that.

A digger, a horse, a motorbike, a roman chariot or a cow are all preferable alternatives to cyclists on road, for the simple fact that, with all other means of transport, you get a lot more leeway if something goes awry for whatever reason (e.g. a pothole).

With a bike in front of you, you are always 0.8 seconds away from committing a murder.

Again, I'm 100% in favour of totally abolishing cars in every city, I look forward to that actually. But having bikes and cars together is a glaring design failure and, quite honestly, nothing more than pure insanity.
I have already commented with something snarky, but in seriousness:

Does it it seem to anyone else that the new generation entering the workplace (zoomers?) have wildly different expectations of what it's like vs. the reality? Not necessarily out of line with what it could or should be like (though I would say it does lean this way), but just how it is in practice?
I did 80's (over 5 days) for an extended period of time twice and you definitely adjust.

Looking back, the quality of work was definitely diminished. It didn't impact me too greatly in the first because it was a sales role primarily filling out RFPs. The second time was my startup and I am confident I made plenty of bad decisions due to lack of relaxation/sleep/exercise.

> AFAIK, the GDPR didn't subsume the Cookie Law, but I may be wrong about that

You are correct. GDPR repealed and replaced the Data Protection Directive (DPD) from 1995. The "cookie law" (ePrivacy Directive, ePD) was an extension of the DPD, and made heavy reference to it. As part of replacing the DPD, GDPR includes a provision that any law referring to the DPD now refers to GDPR instead, which affects the ePD.

So ePD is still in effect, and by reference uses GDPR's new stricter definition of consent. This is a problem. The ePD was dumb but mostly ignorable. The "upgrade" has made its dumb-ness actually impactful.

I went through the coop program at northeastern and it was amazingly pragmatic. You go to school for a career and they put a large focus on that part. They had classes like building resumes and their internship pipeline was amazing. They have tons of connections with companies and they help you with getting your foot in the door somewhere. After my first coop stint I kept working there part time through classes and I never stopped working through the end of school. I had a career and experience before I even graduated.

Also, the comp sci classes were amazing like you said. I started out as a bored business major and took the intro class that used htdp and it immediately changed the course of my life.

I call BS on the 95 hour claim.

Among a lot of people, especially bankers, there is a sort of bragging right about making insane hours.

But 95h/week is impossible. That would be almost 14h per day, for every day of the week. Or 19 hours a day when working week days.

My impressions of bankers is that they are like programmers. They are paid to think. Performing research, reading reports, etc. Most people, myself included, can't even do that for 8 hours a day. 14 hours a day is impossible, no matter how work hungry you are. You may be 'at the office' for 14h, but there is simply no way that you can be productive for 14h straight, and certainly not for 7 days a week.

But regardless of the amount of hours you make. If you don't like it: get a different job. If bankers expect crazy hours, and you don't want to do that, then don't become a banker.
1. They are all lying. They are not working productively for 95 hours a week. At most they are *present* for 95 hours a week. It is not humanly possible to maintain mental focus for that long. Everyone who says it is telling macho lies. It might be possible to get close to it for a week or two with stimulant drugs, but eventually you will have to pay the piper.

2. It is no secret that Goldman expects self-destructive levels of work from some of its employees. Everybody knows this. Former employees brag about keeping up with the punishing schedule. Future employees speak to each other about it before they start work. It is seen as a point of pride. "If you can make it here, you can make it anywhere." So while this is undoubtedly abusive behaviour by an employer, the employees are getting exactly what they signed up for.
> ...until it's paid.

Unfortunately with our phones, OSes, thermostats, doorbells, cameras, PCs, TVs, electric scooters, fans and cars, there is always a way for a manufacturer to find, command and control any of their products remotely even after you paid for it.

So no. It still isn't 'yours' until you can completely and fully control it. That means no backdoors or automatic updates behind your back even after you turn them off.
If you're interested in what investment bankers do in a 95-hour week then check out the book "Barbarians at the Gate." Events took place in 1988 so you don't have things like PowerPoint but there are a lot of good examples of how it becomes "necessary" to put in so many hours. "Necessary" in quotes because it's not a matter of life or death but it really does become required to win the deal. With the amount of money involved in these deals it becomes ultra-competitive and more hours pretty directly translates to a better chance of winning the deal. Especially once you have short deadlines that are intended to get everyone to come forward with their best & final offer, you might just have one weekend to put together a whole pitchbook + all the deal terms to try to win the business.

Because the hours worked translate so directly into increased chances of winning the deal, it really does become a prisoners dilemma amongst all the firms. If they could all stick to 40 hour weeks then no one would have an advantage based on hours worked, but all it takes it one firm to defect and it's game over, welcome back to 100 hour weeks.
I switched to cutting my own hair (and modifying my hairstyle slightly to make that easier) exactly because of the time wasted sitting in the lobby. I don't mind the value-added time (when the hair is actually being cut/styled), but the non-value-added time was too high for me.

I switched dentists for a similar reason; prior dentist kept a buffer of patients waiting to optimize their throughput. I had a dental appointment yesterday [at the newer place] and I was annoyed that I arrived 15 minutes early, because I know they make it a point to bring patients in exactly on time. Sure enough, 2:00 hits and I get called back.
It's both. The law itself is poorly thought-out and overly restrictive. And then websites also don't understand it and do stupid things in the name of compliance, which are neither compliant nor beneficial to the user.
The most I've worked in my life was a two week intensive effort to reach a deadline. I did little more than work eat and sleep, and yet I only worked 75 and 80 hours. And my brain was pretty fried after. This was working from home, with rewarding work I was motivated to do. I don't see how it would be possible to work 95 hours in some office, let alone the 105 hours reported with 5 hours of sleep. It wouldn't make any sense. If you haven't slept more than 5 hours, the other 15 hours (assuming you work Saturday and Sunday) are going to be unproductive. Diminishing returns is a real thing. So, the managers here seems both very unprofessional, and remarkably bad. No one wins, and everyone loses? Nice way to run a business.

Simple answer to this entire issue: If it’s not illegal, don’t censor or moderate it in any way.

Social media companies like Twitter realize that this is the most reasonable approach, but it effectively removes their ability to manipulate... so of course they continue to censor and moderate in a biased fashion.

This has been my biggest psychological shift with my M1 mac too. I used to use my laptop plugged in whenever possible, only using battery power if plugged power wasn't an option.

Now I almost never use my M1 laptop on wall power. I use it on battery power all day long, even when sitting right next to a power outlet. I charge it every few days when I go to bed or won't be working on my computer for a while. This is similar to how you use tablets and phones. You usually charge them up and always use them on battery power. Only in an emergency do you use it while plugged in. The laptop now actually fits into that category now and is used like a true go-anywhere laptop, not a portable computer.

I guess so far the money they are making is worth the pain. You can only hope that they will make working conditions even worse so less people go into investment banking. The financial sector is way too big as a part of the economy and you can only hope that people will go into sectors of the economy where they actually provide value for society.

There were less people in that sector they would have less time to cook up derivatives on top of derivatives on top of derivatives that will probably blow up the economy soon again. Of course we will bail them out again too.
I think it'd be an interesting idea to try and ban people from working more than 50 hours. It's better for the humans in the long run, they'll feel better and be more healthy. I also think there should be mandatory physical movement policies. Have teams of people make a few laps around the block or a park or something. That'd get the dopamine flowing and again, everyone would feel better.

That being said, I don't feel that sympathetic to these juniors, but I can understand why they feel they need to do this. Finance is opaque and obscured by design, to keep people out of the money mansion. They are in a hostile environment and they adopt hostile behaviors to survive. It's not different than violent prisons imo, in concept. They just adapt.

Online-first and even online-only services seem to be happening more often this year while in-person offices are shut down or restricted.

I tried to get a form at the DMV a few months ago and when I got to the counter they sent me away with a printed slip of their web address. (They are currently only handling licensing and renewals in person; all title and registration processing forms are apparently supposed to be done online.) I tried calling their central office and they told me I needed to print the form from their website and mail it in.

I suppose if I had asked them really, really nicely they might have mailed me a printed form, but it was never presented as an option (and that wasn't my issue anyway). It's also worth noting that this is state government and not federal, so compliance to accessibility requirements may not be as regulated or well-enforced.
