otherwise

Tech companies should have a transfer market like football. Imagine google bidding $5 million for a developer, amazon hijacking the deal at the last minute, and microsoft offering a 4 year contract with a signing bonus. Meanwhile, a 52 year old Java developer gets sold for $40 million because he's the only person who understands a bank's backend from 2003.

I genuinely wonder how a tcs employee earning 3.6 LPA manages to afford zomato, uber rides, netflix, weekend movies, gym memberships, rent, groceries, electricity bills and occasional trips. Are they secretly running a business or is tcs paying them in a currency we're not aware of?

Indian companies want freshers with 2 years of experience. Colleges want students with 75% attendance. Internships want candidates who have already completed internships. And parents want everyone employed by 23. At this point. the only people qualified for entry level jobs are people who already have jobs.

Motherfuckers will redesign the entire ceiling before fixing what's making students suicidal

A junior developer using ai to write 500 lines of code is apparently cheating. A senior developer using ai to write the same 500 lines is called leveraging modern tooling. Salary difference: ₹28 lakh

we need to shut down 70% of engineering colleges and turn them into wedding halls. at least they'll generate employment

job market so bad my cousin got laid off from his unpaid internship

claude knows things about me that would get me rejected from heaven, hell and probably linkedin.

imagine an IT company announcing that employees can donate their unused sick leaves to coworkers. within six months, there would be an underground sick leave economy. senior developers selling migraines for ₹4000, freshers borrowing fevers at 18% interest, and HR launching an investigation into fraudulent tuberculosis. capitalism always finds a way.

enough is enough. how many more railway incidents before @AshwiniVaishnaw resigns? he must take moral responsibility for this failure.

My company has a strict policy against moonlighting. Meanwhile the CEO is an angel investor, motivational speaker, podcast host, startup advisor, LinkedIn influencer and board member of 4 companies. Apparently the sun only shines on the top floor.

I had to prove I wasn't a robot to speak to a customer support robot. We have completely lost control of the situation.

genuine question, if the machine kills someone, who gets arrested?

If I die while working from home, please don't tell my company immediately. Keep my laptop online, move the mouse occasionally and collect another month's salary. I've given them enough free overtime. My corpse deserves compensation.

this is why poverty will never be eradicated. people have started treating it like a spiritual achievement.

why is everyone cooking chicken today? 😭

a senior engineer I know quietly works two full-time remote jobs for US startups. he makes ₹1.2 crore a year sitting in his bedroom. his colleagues think he is an average performer working 40 hours. in reality, he logs 15 hours a week total. system is broken, and he’s milking it. Thoughts?

I want to see two ai agents handle an entire job interview. Candidate's bot invents 5 years of kubernetes experience. recruiter's bot praises the culture and offers a salary that doesn't exist. both send each other a lovely thank you email. The real humans wake up to a rejection saying there wasn't enough human connection.
