A design doc would help narrow down the number of prototypes to 2 to 3 in all the available options. This is especially useful if you are exploring adding something completely new.

Though i feel that showing is better than telling, when new people onboard they have a easier time understanding via a design doc than code.


not really, many of the states does not use last name and many take up their fathers name as last name. It also varies from state to state, so the probability of you identifying another person caste from their last name is very small.

With many people taking different names that are modern from parents ,its really hard to know .


My wife has her father's name as her last, so what you say definitely tracks.


this was dismissed for lack of any evidence.

Only stories alleging caste discrimination trend on HN and are assumed to be true. Not when they're withdrawn for lack of evidence, so we can't blame GP for not knowing that.


you generally apply to several jobs across several companies even with referral.

based on my experience its > 5 mins most of the time.


That still doesn't seem like very much time to me. Job hunting involves hours and hours of interviews; five minutes of paperwork is negligible by comparison, right? Are people mass-spamming applications or something?


"Are people mass-spamming applications or something?"

since the dawn of time (1970, jan1)


Well, in 1970 you could only do about 10 a day, because you needed to type a cover letter with the hiring manager's name in it. Job search (newspaper "help wanted" ads), envelope stuffing, trips to the post office and so on took time too.

Photocopies were low quality and looked obvious and got you into the trash straight away.

So mass, but compared to population not very mass.

The real start date was Eternal September.


If I was getting hours and hours of interviews, an hour of paperwork would be trivial.

When 2/3 companies don't even bother sending a rejection email, I tend to not bother doing the 20 minute job applications.


When you see a job and it says '3000 applicants so far' or something, this is why

the middle management especially half cooked engineers who drank the cool aid and became managers are hard to reason with.

They want to be both the architect and the manager and anything you say would be over ruled and since they are the boss its hard to ignore them.

This service is a monolith because it has 10K code and it needs to be broken up.The product is at MVP and its rock solid on Java Spring and it hardly crashes. We are never going to lose data based on the design choices we made. None of that matters.

We need zero down time upgrade, when we had zero customers.


In USA, if you are on h1b you cannot claim unemployment since your work visa is restricted.

So even though h1b folks pay into the system they cannot claim unemployment.
