pay adjustments have already been known for over a year, its not some secret. its to -15% to places like hawaii, -10% to miami, -5% to seattle/LA, or 0% to nyc

its based on cost of acquisition of labor in the region, not cost of living as you can see from hawaii

They have some of the worst offers for a company of their size.

They rely on your "passion" for crypto to underpay and hire naive engineers.

This is great and super informational, thanks for sharing!

Basics like this should be part of every introductory CS course.

Instagram hasn't copied from Snapchat in a very long time. Have you used Snapchat recently? The UX is completely different and awful now.

Instagram is innovating with new features like Video Calling and Live Video that Snapchat lacks.

TRON is a dpos blockchain with a port of the ethereum virtual machine. Not sure where you get the IPFS part from.

Facebook's guidelines were 25% confidence they could pass an onsite and they would be given one.

I'd personally rather give the candidate AND the company a chance at hiring a potential candidate than missing out on one. The longterm impact on your company is huge.

Tron VM has a beta release out, but it's not a priority currently.

They're working on building and stabilizing the blockchain first. Dapp partnerships are coming but you cant have people commit to building on a nonexistant blockchain ;)

Looks like op submitted GDPR data requests to recruiting agencies that were sending him job request.

He previously signed up for some job listing sites like Jobsite/Dice/Monster/Indeed or any of the trash job listing sites.

There was a term in their TOS that allowed them to sell his CV as part of a batch to recruiting firms to contact him which he didn't see.

Hence the outrage.

I went through this when I received an offer to join a BigCo.

During the background check provided by the 3rd party, I actually filled in my STARTING, not FINAL salary for some of the previous companies that I worked for.

This actually came up in the final report as mismatches in my history since they actually do call up each company you provide information for, but nothing ever came of it.

I suggest that you not lie on a background check. The company will not renege on an already agreed on salary nor does a BigCo care how much they're paying you.

What they're looking for is honesty and that there are no glaring red flags in your personality or history.

Force quitting prevents the app from waking in the background due to geo location updates, push etc.

Personally I prefer to force quit because it improves my battery life by reducing background updates on apps I'm not using.
