Then what do you tell them? Employers will expect that an adult has some kind of work history.

Also, discrimination against overqualified applicants is now illegal in California, but I imagine it still happens.

Television programming has been profiled and targeted for decades. It just wasn't as granular and accurate as it is on the web.

Can someone add (2017) to the title? Without seeing the date it makes it look like GitHub is discontinuing support with a few days' notice.

In case it wasn't immediately obvious from my original comment, the issue was that "Cubans" is ambiguous and could be related to commerce that might be covered by sanctions against Cuba.

Have you ever been to the area? It's not a soundtrack, that's just what it sounds like here. There's always a gently strummed guitar flowing out of a watery amp somewhere off in the distance.

I had a similar issue with Venmo—a friend tried to pay me back for a Cuban sandwich, and the transaction was held up because he just wrote "Cubans" as the description. Only in Venmo's case, the issue was resolved mere hours after he sent an email explaining the situation.

I opened a Coinbase account back in college ~6 years ago when they were giving $10 in Bitcoin to anyone who signed up with a .edu email address. I forgot about it until last summer, when I realized that amount was now worth around $160.

I didn't have access to my college email anymore, so having to provide proof of identity was reasonable; having the entire process take a month wasn't. They also do this particularly insidious thing where if they don't respond to your request for two weeks or so, they automatically close it as unresolved. They do automatically reopen it if you send another email, but that you have to do that in the first place is dumb.

I was certainly fooled the first one or two times it happened; my initial thought was that Levi's provided the worst of its production to Amazon. The jeans were cut and sewn poorly, covered in sawdust, and fell apart within months. It's only upon doing further research that I realized they were counterfeit, and that many people have had this problem.

> e2e for direct user to user makes sense.

I disagree, corporate chats still have plenty of reason to want access to historical user-to-user chats. Ignoring the cynical reasons, institutional memory isn't confined to channel chats.

This has been true so far in the US, but there are countries where ISPs transparently provide different bandwidths to different types of content, and customers pick and choose service plans for each in a package deal.

> I've not seen anyone say that a "Sold by Amazon" product is counterfeit.

I've had it happen to me with Levi's, and word of mouth tells me this is a problem in general with big name clothing.

I know "if you don't like your job, find a new one!" is a tired cliche that often gets thrown at people complaining about legitimate grievances, but software engineering is one of the few fields where a good employee can fairly easily leave for greener pastures whenever they want, at least in the US.

Today I had to search for Slack messages that were sent long before I was hired to solve a problem at work. In an end-to-end model, you're only going to have logs as far back as you were there to receive.

Out of curiosity, what's the quote you mentioned?
