reactordev··on Netflix employee fired for sharing personal details in retreat trust exercise
Entirely this. When you are interacting with HR, that person on the other side is trying to protect the company from whatever claims you are about to make.

Their GDP would suffer.
reactordev··on Netflix employee fired for sharing personal details in retreat trust exercise
Once upon a time, when the tech talent pool was smaller, there was this really caustic individual I used to work with that loved to argue. They would never give praise or say something like "oh that's cool!" but would rather debate everything. A few years later, I'm now working at a different company and someone comes to me asking to help them review a resume. It was that individual. I was clear about what talent this individual brought but I also added my anecdote about their behavior at the previous company. I gave them room though to find out for themselves. During the interview with that individual, they asked a few questions that would elicit this kind of behavior and they did not disappoint. They did not get the job.

I treat everyone I work with with respect but I also don't go so far as to let them into the inner circle. I wish people could just respect people but I've seen too many office politics sessions to know better. I wished to make friends with some coworkers outside of work but it never amounted to much.

The tragedy strikes when you associate your workplace with belonging because here, at-will employment means you never truly belong.

>”this is a recipe for a sad life”

No, this is a recipe for surviving corporate America. You can have and make friends but be cautious of coworkers that you work directly with. I’ve made friends outside of work. I’ve made friends at work but I do not expect to be friends with everyone I work with.

You first

I heard this from older generations. Sadly this is no longer true as we all work remotely now.

You can make friends but don’t assume that they are simply because you share a common trauma of being cooped up in the same building.

I’ve made friends at work. I wouldn’t call them friend friends but I’ve made friends at work.

Your company, your coworkers, are not your friends. HR is not there for you, it's to protect the company from you. Do not disclose personal information to those who control your livelihood. Once you leave or if you build up a personal relationship with a coworker, outside of work, then maybe. Even still. I will never divulge what I have been through simply because corporate wants to be "inclusive".

I think you are confusing React SDK with Vercel SDK.

Careful using the term “most” when you mean “the ones I know of”. You would be surprised how much Angular is out there.

reactordev··on Show HN: Physically accurate black hole you can put in your room
I agree. I was able to position the camera so that the entire black hole effect was negated and we were back to having a star. All I needed to do was turn the camera just right.

100k tokens is your pre-prompt and your CLAUDE.md as well as a few files from your root.

I think they meant “released and available for use” rather than just out in the wild.

"That concentration is an architectural choice rather than a law of physics" except it's entirely based on the laws of physics. The closer you are, the faster the communication lane.

You forgot the part where Brent Spiner shows up and tells you they have one and asks if you want to meet it.
reactordev··on Did They Ghost You?
Sometimes it can help articulate your stance after the fact. I’ve used it to thank the panel and to clarify a few of my answers so they had something to research. I have also used it to pull the emergency escape hatch and thank them for their time.
reactordev··on Did They Ghost You?
As long as there has been recruiters… there has been ghosting.

This is a huge waste of resources. F-16s were designed for humans. You can get MUCH better results designing the airframe around the lack of one.

reactordev··on Learn OpenGL, extensive tutorial resource for learning Modern OpenGL
Sadly, the OP is right, OpenGL is deprecated on a number of platforms and down right removed from others. Please don't learn this now. Vulkan has the shape of every modern graphics api out there, DX included. Learn this or at the very least WebGPU.
