I’ve been receiving emails from reps at companies lately. Some are from companies that didn’t hire me after getting laid off in 2022 for petty/unclear reasons.

Frankly, few mature companies need a "engineer/product guy" and your split experience will work against you unless you make it clear that you're earnestly committed to one of those roles in particular (are you?), or you specifically look for work close to sales at B2B or contract development firms, where the combination of those skills is an asset when selling and sometimes prototyping custom work.

You're selling a product right now (yourself) and you need a clear understanding of what the product is. It's not a typical engineer and it's not a typical product person. It's not even an practiced corporate drone. So don't expect to sell it as one of those things and don't distract yourself applying for work that needs them (your resume will be ignored in this market). Instead, figure out what niche value your background brings and focus directly on selling that to the customers (employers) that would need it.

When I do a Ctrl+F search for “Gonatano” one of the search results is the actual name as typed with the circumflex. I think that is kind of a handy feature of the browser I’m using but at the same time it is sort of weird since it technically is not the same name without the circumflex, right?

Also not all database systems would think the non-circumflex version is equivalent to the circumflex version. Does anyone have thoughts or ideas about how or why they should be treated equivalently?

I also recognize this can get kind of political. There was a push in California recently to let people have accented letters in their name. Apparently it is legally not allowed. And yet some people claim their California birth certificate does contain accented letters.

My intended direction is somewhere in technical product, but I've really only done it for around a year and frankly I'd need to build a bit of a narrative to be competitive with other product hires.

In tech, you get absurd salaries that mean even if you get laid off, you would still take home a lot more than your average government employee.

The number one attraction for working for the government is stability, and that's baked into the salary.

If you want to attract skilled workers to work for the government, have the same experiences getting laid off, and get paid less, they're just going to turn to private industry.

Thanks for info, is this part of your challenge? You stated you want a normal job and tech salary, but is it that you really don't want or enjoy coding?

In either case, I'd recommend prioritizing your wants, e.g. location, technologies, role to help you narrow a list of potential places.

The market does suck but there are jobs and with CS degree and some experience I honestly think you'll be just fine. Don't worry about the short stints and just have a reasonable explanation about this if asked.

I didn't. I also gave it no system prompt pushing it to always use tools or anything.

It searches for tools with a query "calculator math root" and is given a list of things that includes a calculator. It picks the calculator, then it uses it.

I actually wonder if many individual cops use "null" (the ordinary word) as a shorthand for "plate not applicable," "not identified", "missing" etc - semantically the same thing as NULL in programming, but then in this case it wouldn't be a database NULL error. In theory the same thing could happen if someone had a DEALER vanity plate. (Though that choice might be rejected for obliquely referencing drugs.)

That sounds like the author is describing an NFA.

> whereby we execute all the future possibilities... e.g. "amb" operator

Isn't "execute all possibilities" closer to the dual of amb than it is to amb? At least in terms of how the denotation of amb is operationalized.

But it is a good point that sometimes you want to give an actual operational meaning to a literal non-determinism operator.
But if you give them a search they'll use that to look for tools and if you give them the ability they can write new tools for themselves.
This is technically the law in California, too (and possibly that’s where you live) but in practice the ability to do common law name-change has been abolished at a bureaucratic level.

Since at some point everything official now routes back to either a passport, an immigration/naturalization document, a court-issued name change doc, or a marriage certificate, those are effectively the only ways your name can be changed.

The problem is that all the law can do is make it legal for you to use whatever without it being considered fraudulent to try. But if your law is like CA’s it doesn’t specify other institutions other than possibly state government ones have to honor that and, in particular, it can’t constrain the federal government at all.

So that leaves the DMV as the one possibly effective way to do common law change, on the off chance somewhere will just accept your license as proof of identity. But now that driver’s licenses are subordinate to passport info or equivalent via Real ID, that route is pretty much toast too.

You might still be able to get the alternative state-only DL / state ID with a common law name, and maybe open a bank account with that, but then the credit reporting companies (or Chexsystems) don’t have to honor it so you’re possibly screwed anyway. Plus without a Real ID you’ll have to show a passport to fly domestically, and that will have the name you don’t like.

And, of course, none of this helps with your paycheck because you can’t satisfy an I-9 with a DL. It requires a federal document, too, which—if your state info doesn’t match your federal info—needs to be a fully identifying federal passport/equivalent. So even if you get the bank account with your chosen name, you might run into issues with your checks being to a different one.

At this point, it’s just not worth trying common law name change anymore. You either flip a few hundred for the official change or you accept the fact that you’ll have a public name and a private name.

(And I say this as a “Geo” who strongly dislikes seeing “George Jr” on stuff so I feel your pain. I just tell my employers that my given name only goes on paychecks, benefits, and tax forms, and is to never be used publicly. That has always worked.)

Critical thinking needs to be taught in schools. Either that or the society of the future is going to be hugely screwed.

> A highly competent government in America has been a massive contributor to our success.

I doubt this. Do you really think the government is the reason Silicon Valley has been so successful? Sure the government created the internet, but after that many tech companies flourished in Silicon Valley with very little regulation. I think that's why America has been so successful. If you look at anything the government gets its hands in, costs sky rocket (education, healthcare, etc).
Aah yes the treasured American pastime of pretending you're going to leave when the Other Team wins the presidency.
Work at a non-tech company. Every company has computers. I’ve worked in small business loans, ticket sales, music publishing and others.
I've been out of the market for a bit, but last time I was in it, it was really terrible. I think it's better than it was a few years ago, but no where near where it was. It took me over 6 months to land a role, where previously I generally had a few offers within a month or so.

For the market, your hit rate sounds good. You don't suck, it's just like that out there at the moment. The fact that you made it to a final round means someone clearly thought you were capable of doing the job.

My best advice is if you have any niche skills try to capitalize on those. Your average Java/.NET/JavaScript developer role is seeing literally thousands of applicants. The more you can get off the beaten path the better. If you know some less common programming language or technology you may well find you have better luck searching for jobs looking for that even if it's not your core competency.
There's no way you are a loser. 1 successful exit, flaunt it man. No one cares about the exit value. The fact that you had a successful exit is a huge win.
I would say that you can certainly strive for a 250-300K salary in the bay area at least.

You should try Walmart for an IC role. Glacial pace of working and a shit ton of bureaucracy, but looks like it might just be the right environment for you now.

Other companies that I can think of along similar lines - JPM, Cisco, Arista or any of the traditional companies.

Your best bet is to network with the hiring managers. I think if you just meet them and speak about your experiences in an event or something you might be able to articulate your experiences better than just in a resume.

Also I have found that drafting your resume and asking ChatGPT or another LLM to refine the wording really works. These LLMs know the ATS or resume scanning keywords and will tailor your resume accordingly.

Good luck

There are plenty of startups and “startups” that are about a decade old and would benefit from someone who has both an understanding of how real startups work, how to ship things, and also has enough experience to be reliable in what is no longer an early stage company, and maybe isn’t really a startup anymore.

A lot of these companies make reasonable money and pay well enough. Not $100k and “$10MM in stock if it works out”, but probably between 170-300 depending on where they’re at, the structure, etc and it’ll be real cash money. The company will probably do something boring but very necessary. You’ll make great friends and have fun.

Keep an eye out, see what’s out there.

You seem stuck on the idea that you need to verify an employee to hell and back before investing anything, that's not what I mean by committing.

How does that work? That guy, pensioner, who has it slightly better than you, is a different way of saying that:

1) that guy gets your labor, for decades. 4 decades to be exact

2) for less than you'll get for that work

(that's what getting a higher pension actually means in the real world, with money being an abstraction and all that)

3) he (or she) doesn't get more because they worked harder or better, but because they were working when a random political vote needed to be made (paid for, really). And that, not only won't repeat, but there's absolutely nothing you can do to change the situation to your benefit, even just to equalize. That last part is of course what makes taking away their benefits attractive.

Sounds pretty unfair to me. At least with a CEO they did something to get what they got, and there is a way to get their position, even if most will never achieve that.
