it would not surprise me to learn that in fact 80% of Oracle employees have turned over in five years (assuming the average employee is staying less than four years, which is consistent with what I have observed at similar big tech)

I once interviewed with Oracle Cloud (when it was going through its big-rewrite), and I was told the goal was to staff it with entirely new, not-Oracle people...the conclusion being that the first incarnation of Oracle Cloud failed partly due to staffing it internally

my advice is to migrate to a "clean" lifestyle:

1. 100% cleaned up healthy diet

2. regular exercise

3. good sleep

and being alcohol/drug-free comes along for free

I don't agree that social pressures make this impossible as others have suggested...I mean, does anyone here shun someone else at a party who isn't drinking/doing drugs? of course not

it is quite common these days to meet normal, successful people who don't drink, lead healthy lifestyles, you will not be a pariah

don't worry about popularity - people who are fit and healthy have no problems making friends as being in shape is inherently attractive

Free, and dead

No doubt the system is abused, but the solution isn't to eliminate all protections...Apple or Google have the money to instantly clone anything

Liberty Ale is a true classic of brewing, but you can find something like it in any city now

Sierra Nevada Pale Ale is another classic and you can find it practically anywhere

no one has to make that choice

> This is a politically-"leftist" site (top current thread is "How did you get into anarchism", along with something about ACAB)

tbh how is this different than most subs?

this is a feature, not a bug...it keeps these people out of the real world and glued to their keyboards where their blast radius is limited to their own echo chamber
