If your company has 1k devs you'll have to hire several people every single week. At the same time if you want any level of consistency, you can't let teams who have not hired for 2 years come up with their own process, so that's why pipelines are a thing.
I assume most HN job posts are from small startups. Even if they are established companies with a sizable head count, it seems weird seeing the same exact job post month after month for a year or two straight.

Perhaps? We're a 9 person backend department inside a 250 person ISP. Not the typical type of team we talk about here on HN. I doubt small startups need a pipeline either, they just hire on demand.
As a German, I think Estonia has to be before us with a huge lead. Their digital infrastructure is the wet dream of our bureaucratic apparatus.
I don't think the IMD is aware of just how crappy digital processes are in Germany.
A legal process that is digital literally means that you fill out an online form so they can send you the printed out paper form via snail mail and you have to redundantly fill that out again, saving overall exactly 0 seconds with the initial digital website. Not kidding.
I'm surprised by the number of medical practices in Australia that still use fax machines for sending reports and referrals.
Ordinary email is widely not viewed as sufficiently secure to use for sending confidential patient health data (although I've seen a minority use it for that purpose anyway). There is a secure digital messaging system supposed to replace fax machines, HealthLink, which some practices use. But it is owned by a private company and costs extra $$$, and a lot of practices decide they don't want to pay it. So fax machines survive. Now running over VoIP (actually FoIP) – Australia has turned off its POTS telephone system.
They meet these metrics while they are under formal process just before termination. I used to work with a couple people clearly working multiple jobs who switched focus when they were PIPed.
If they are refocused on their job and now meeting metrics why terminate them? People can become unfocused for a variety of reasons beyond working other jobs. Life happens. If they don't remain focused and again don't meet metrics they have already been given an opportunity and should then be terminated.
Not quite, it's not a separator, you can't add arbitrary content after the dot. Dots are just ignored in Gmail, so you need to keep a map of dot placement and quantity to service, vastly less convenient.
Yes, you're right. The dots thing isn't as powerful as the + separator. But it is useful for sites that have a poor understanding (or regex) associated to their address validator. In context of the parent comment, that's the point, that the dots aren't restricted as the plus separator can be.
I'd recommend against taking any advice from Reddit, especially subreddits like:
- /r/recruitinghell
- /r/jobs
- /r/cscareerquestions
That's like asking a meth fiend for lifestyle advice. Most people there have no idea what they are talking about and never took part in recruitment on the company side, they just repeat some bullshit they were told or try to rehash some opinion pieces as universal rules.
