Limited to specific areas during specific hours, and have caused crashes (at least when I lived there till last summer).

Essentially neural program synthesis

Use levels.fyi for general salaries, align Head of Development with the salary level you want to negotiate for, and use it as evidence for that rate.

Want £100k? Find the appropriate level on the site that has that rate and make an argument that head of development is that level. You can make this argument for basically any level, with that title, so this alone might work.

Probably argue that now you have line manager responsibilities alongside development requirements you feel the salary bump doesn’t adequately reflect the much greater workload, especially without additional equity.

Most contracts say you can’t do work on the side in the UK without permission so I wouldn’t highlight this, just because it probably won’t impact negotiations (there’s better things to say) and at worst could cause issues where they ask you to stop. Unlikely, but in general don’t mention this stuff.

$4500 now, so we could see alternatives on the market by 2030 around the $500 mark (fingers crossed)

I don’t think it’s per user, it’s per customer isn’t it?

I’m shocked people used the card - most companies affected were big, surely they’d put this through legal first to check it doesn’t impact abilities to join a lawsuit later on etc…

It does however effect the global markets, probably visa access to U.S. schools and companies including YC, etc…

Yeah it’s sad. Some companies are better than others, and it’s personally my favorite part of software engineering, but a lot of large companies cut it at the first opportunity.

As in, does the OS require the internet so CrowdStrike can send telemetry data OR will it skip that step and just boot the OS like normal?

But then would CrowdStrike stop the startup saying it requires network connectivity to initialize or something? Just wondering how invasive the app is

Does this mean a computer without internet access and with CrowdStrike would be unable to start up?

You can skip paperwork but what if the patient is allergic to a medicine and you need to check medical records? Or you need to call for a surgeon but VoIP is down? Etc…

If CrowdStrike can cause this with a faulty update (allegedly), what do you think could happen to Western infrastructure from a full blown cyberwar? It's a valid risk.

> Society was able to move to mass WFH on a global scale in a single month during Covid

I don't know how much WFH saved lives, seeing as ordered isolation and social distancing was a thing during the Spanish Flu too (you just take the economic hit). But yes it allowed companies to keep maintaining profits. Those that couldn't WFH got paid in most countries anyway (furlough in England, etc).

This is what coffeezilla said on his channel after speaking to devs at Rabbit

Remember they’d want to run raid, maybe have backups, and manage disk failure. At that size it’ll be a daily event (off the top of my head).
