  1. add zoom to the tech layoffs (including a good friend of mine) https://techcrunch.com/2023/02/07/zoom-layoffs-impact-15-of-staff/
  2. Yeah was about to post layoffs.fyi is a pretty good source for tech layoffs. Tech recruiters were definitely making bank, even though it is a job that almost anybody could do. It is such a boom time job, 2020-2022 everybody was hiring so much that every person "breaking into tech" was either in recruiting or sales, with the former making over 6 figures to DM people on LinkedIn.
  3. anecdotally, it seems like 50% of them are recruiters
  4. my first vehicle (2006) was a 1984 Chevy C10, not unlike the below but not nearly as nice I loved that thing, feels about as wide as it is long. We sold it for around $500 when it started having rust in the fuel tank, which my dad and I both regret to this day. These things are selling for 30k plus now.
  5. pretty good edit, but could use more saturation imo
  6. Can those of you who drove into work today name your employers? Would like to avoid ever working for them.
  7. maybe when he was a rookie: https://nba.nbcsports.com/2021/05/13/shaquille-oneal-says-he-weighed-395-pounds-when-winning-third-lakers-title/
  8. With big tech, they are all still at a higher headcount post layoffs than they were at end of 2021. There was just way too much over hiring happening across the industry, led by the big boys.
  9. Does anyone want to actually mention the name of the fat actor?
  10. God damn, get a hobby, take up woodworking or something.
  11. isn't it just due to the percent increase? If we were already at 4% before these hikes a 12.5% increase wouldn't have been felt. But going from .5% to 4.5% is impossible to not have ramifications.
  12. Whenever I flash, people do tend to turn their heads
  13. we had some hail down in Buda
  14. tell us how you really feel
  15. is @phdhorn still taking forecast requests? We've planned to be camping this saturday into sunday at Meridian state park. Forecast calls for 'scattered thunderstorms', should we cancel or does it seem like we'll just be getting short lived stuff that we should bear with? its a group of people (moms with toddlers) without much stomach for dealing with weather...
  16. I'm ashamed at how young I was when I first started on these God-forsaken boards...
  17. definitely not this guy https://247sports.com/player/calen-bullock-46081272/
  18. they wouldn't have to be 50/50 deep balls if we could actually hit him in stride...
  19. Why is that?
  20. Anybody choosing a lambo over Ferrari has bad taste and was never cool
  21. This is where I stand. By pure talent, he is the best RB since Ricky, followed by Jamaal. Cedric had great production over his 4 years and could really batter teams with his physicality, but Bijan's ability to cut is up there with some of the best of all time.
  22. Hey, I work there.
  23. Just got back from watching at my mother in laws. Bittersweet moment seeing her choke up as they won, knowing nothing would’ve made her husband happier than seeing this. Watching this team has been a real bonding experience for us over the last month as we’ve navigated moving on with our lives, especially for my MIL. Hell, we watched all 18 innings together the evening after the funeral. To spend so much time together rooting on the Astros is something I’ll always cherish.
