That doesn't seem right. I have more at amazon. Meta also has more. I've never heard of KLA.

Just looked it up and the number of days increases with seniority at Google.

His argument remains valid with the correct number, proving that his made up number was close enough.

You're factually wrong.

I recognize this guy based on his handle as the guy who'd always give spectacularly unhelpful replies on #python freenode irc. Not surprised he also makes simplistic statements about capitalism.

Some people do do that. Try stepping outside of your bubble.

Maybe I missed something but the adverse experience factor didn't seem to be very meaningful. Not convinced by their argument.

Great title and initial presentation though!

His vibes agree with what economists think. Look up what happened in the late 70s and early 80s.

You know Switzerland is all hilly or mountainy right? Building infrastructure is inherently much harder and more expensive and yet Switzerland does a much better job of it. Switzerland is also actually more diverse with it having 3 distinct languages. The federalization via cantons is smart and works well.

I'm certain your two sources are not measuring the same thing. Swiss taxes are much lower. Median income in Germany is 43k which results in a tax rate of 34% in bawu. Median income in Switzerland is 78k, that in Zürich gives a tax rate of roughly 12% (!!!). Of course in Switzerland all health insurance is private so you end up having to pay more but this does not increase with more income!

Anyways the idea that the tax burden is the same is completely laughable.

Switzerland does everything better than Germany with far less taxes.

And since we're trading anecdotes I've found US Healthcare to be the best compared to the 3 european countries I've lived in before.

So, so, so curious how they are implementing this.

This is not an accurate portayal of these labs. They're all still doing blue sky research.

500 comments not a single one is interesting.

I work at FAANG. People here coast while making mountains of money.

Very nice. Love the glossary!

Yeah I also was confused by the discretization step. The video is great thank you for sharing!

This is terrible advice LOL.

This is not at all what people mean when they talk about silos

Awesome and amazing.

As someone who's first job was also for a mature ~20 person start up, I firmly believe those companies are the best to work for as a junior. You will have experienced colleagues who can teach you while also getting to make a significant impact. It's the best.

Thank you for sharing this journey! Very helpful.

Your info is out of date, Google pays like MS nowadays.

Comeon tell us what the app is!

This is the tea I live for.

I find github to be a much nicer experience than codecommit. Not surprised that people would want to switch.

> The Transformer was proposed in 2017, with the softmax-based attention being proposed in 2014 but it wasn't until 2023 when GPT-3 et al took the world by storm that people started really using the Transformer as it is today.

The last part is COMPLETELY false. Laughably so.

Do you have investments in stocks and index funds?

You couldn't be more wrong.

Literally every person who is the best in the world at what they do is intoxicated with their job. You don't get that good without putting in the extra effort. You need to recognize some people favor work in the work / life balance.

I think this could actually be kind of a genius way to get power users to pay.

The danger is of course that you lose the content creators.

Isn't all this stuff written in C++? I suspect the slowness is bad system design.
