I don't know what's going on but I want my friends to make $$$$$$ so please take my advice

@zkat__ ("kat marchán") replied to a tweet by @zkat__:

This is, btw, extra true right now. Salaries are ridiculously high, even at startups.

I've been seeing regular smaller companies paying FAANG rates (read: $250k+ in cash) in a desperate attempt to get people to join them.

@zkat__ ("kat marchán") replied to a tweet by @zkat__:

This is especially true for anyone early in their careers! It's harder to get that 44% bump when you're already near the top of market salaries (although you can still get decent bumps to be significantly above market), but when you're still in the sub-100k to low-100k? JUMP

Job hop all you want, kids, even if the job you currently have feels "okay". You don't have to be miserable to do it.

Companies are seriously missing out on retaining talent because they're more willing to pay a new hire way more than before, which is BONKERS for retention??

Getting 60fps WebGL on a watch. One of the Samsung Internet Engineers is definitely needlessly flexing here.

It is also the first smart watch I've had which is small enough to wear as a watch.

It responds to touch events too which really shows how powerful it is. There is no latency so this must be running on the device.

I just found out that

1. For 24 years every pilot who landed at the airport in Nagpur, India had to be warned about the Boeing 720 sitting next to the runway.

2. That it was my dad's fault.

This is the story of my dad's junkyard jet.

That huge scary spending package that includes better health care, child care, paid parental leave, etc costs $350 billion a year.

Billionaires gained $1.8 trillion in the last year and paid half the tax rate you do.

And they tell us "we can't afford it" with a straight face.
