Joplin, multi OS, OSS and syncs

i really find Joplin's UI unproductive but I like the idea of Joplin, it has everything else one needs

Why is L1 any worse ?


Unless I'm mistaken, you can transfer employers on an H1-B, and you have 90 days to find a new job if you get laid off. On an L1 you are immediately out of status when your employment is terminated, with no option of transfer


Lol isn’t that the truth, or my son !


Any podcasts recommendation ?


I don't think people really do it all like you imagine, you probably have the wrong image of folks based on social media highlights.

Another thing to consider is that much of what you see was built over years. If you take Redis for example its first release was in 2009.


What makes you think they don't fund it ?


Have you checked build.nvidia.com by any chance ?


I had one that I enjoyed many years ago, to write a service that calculated the Nth digit of Pi.

It was up to you what you wanted to do / how / if you wanted to deploy. They only asked that you write how you would've liked to receive such service from another org.

Then in the day of the in person interview we reviewed my code / README / tests ; was very nice.


Did you have the option to represent Pi in a hexidecimal base?

That speeds things up no end.


Could you use a lookup table?


On my sleep


This is a great article. Reflects my experience both in big and small companies. Anyone can be the "Project leader", doesn't need to be a TPM, PM or ENG. It isn't an org chart role, it is a role you are fulfilling. I have seen many different org chart roles succeeding or failing at it.


This also allows companies to bake it into a role without commiserate pay increases and even sometimes without modifying responsibility only adding on to them.

Don’t be fooled folks, if you aren’t being paid more for leading and taking visible ownership over things you’re being cheated


This is a very snarky/bitter view of it. In my career I have done fairly well and have been promoted after the fact a couple of times. People who don't take these opportunities rarely move up to bigger responsibilities. At big tech is usually expected that you are already performing at a level above for a certain period of time before being promoted
