Going to guess defense contractor.


Close enough. I work for a 'body shop' and I'm currently working for a european government client.


Ahh europe - where, anecdotally, all startup and eng is done backwards.


Poor take. There are plenty of good engineering organisations in Europe, just as there are more than enough terrible ones in the US.

That being said I agree I wouldn't want to work somewhere like what was described above. It's certainly not a style of interview I would approve of or conduct myself.


Not sure what the jab is about. OP works for a body shop in a governmental org, where does that let you imply that startup and eng are backwards as neither are OP's experiences?

If the anecdote is related to your experiences working on FB then, please, specify it, blanket statements aren't what I expect from HN comments.


They're opening Seattle offices this year. Or at least that's the plan? It might be affected by the epidemic.


Apple already has an office in downtown Seattle. I know because I've talked to a recruiter about a job there twice.


Don't they already have offices there?


Easily fixable if you stop testing, or officially attribute death to something else.


No, the course is 10 days IIRC.


I bought aquarium chloroquine to use as a last-ditch resort if I basically have to choose between taking it or dying due to hospital overcapacity. No harm to patients there IMO. I spent $60 for the 10 grams recommended for a course (.5 g a day). That was last week, and it's so much more expensive now.


Is there any difference in aquarium cloroquine and prescription? I’m assuming mostly manufacturing conditions

How do you plan on measuring your dose and dosing it?


Do you have a source for it? I've had to buy through underground labs; could not find any Avaclor.


Where do you recommend buying them?


JMBullion, ampex, sdbullion are the obvious answers. I tend to like pawing through inventory in person. I live next to Meierotto Jeweler's, I like going there because it reminds me how poor I am, and they generally let me paw through things without getting weird about it.


My ideal mix is either 80/20 or 60/40 remote/in-office. I have been 20/80 my entire career up to the CV outbreak (1 day WFH minimum every week).

I prefer 100% WFH to that, but I dislike not going to the office at all. This is my first time being 100% WFH for this long -- my previous max was a full week.


>But how can you objectively establish that somebody is unattractive?

Dating apps are a good data point to start with.


It's the same underlying app/framework, but not the same content and users, right?


Don't forget the service industry. There's a correlation between how attractive you are and your earning ceiling for bartending and waitering/waitressing.


I can offer real world evidence in support of this correlation. I worked at 2 different restaurants in my life. I didn't get many tips; only pocket change if it was a good night. The hot waitresses could make as much as 1/3 of their monthly salary from tips.
