Switched to XFX Merc 319 6950xt. I hope this serves me better.
Youtube does experiments based on user-agents. I think this is well known and if not, a former Googler just let you know.
In any case, for those who are complaining, it's their website. Either pay or stop using it?
For actual support you need a paid account to reach out to.
You could argue that it's badly named and should just be called Google's community forum instead, which is what it really is.
Every 3-4 years seems to indicate a better uptick in interest / offers in my experience. Otherwise the concern from many Hiring Managers is: I'm going to invest my time and effort (~6 mos) in training, and that will be lost very quickly.
In my view a promotion is every 3-4 years as well (although it can be faster) at the FAANG companies. If someone is able to get a promo, that is the best time to start looking. It establishes that the individual is on an upwards trajectory so it makes it easier to hire them and convince others if the company is committee based on hiring decisions.
Is it possible Musk is looking to buy a method to influence a populace for his own ends? I.E. is this a method for him to influence a population to gain power and sway over elections, organizations, etc?
Even in the Denuvo case, there is still pirate activity on games that employ it (albeit no 0 days).
If Google is treating devs and users well, there is no reason to switch. It's when they falter on one, migrations can and will occur (given past history as experience).
There is also this gravity effect of SV. People move to SV to get a tech job, so thats where the majority of them are. But from talking to folks, there is a real lack of available talent, so companies are forced to look elsewhere. From my own experience, there are not a huge number of available candidates in other areas either.
