Wow, I wonder how profitable youtube will be afterwards. That’s a LOT of added expense. They’re also trying to compete with TV with their $35/mo offering.
I have to admit, I have gone on Youtube a lot now. Way more than regular tv viewing…

The only way people are hiring engineers is poaching them from other companies. That means every hire creates another job opening that needs backfilled.
True. Especially as big companies compete with other big companies for the same skills. With winner takes it all, its a race to market. Cant maintain the speed organically.
Got get me one of those jobs 
after I finish moving in…
you’ll start working again?
Are you in the same age group as them? 20s-30s 
No… but a programmer with a pulse is a programmer.
Yeah. I’d like to do that.
But I’m definitely glad to have waited until after the move. It was a BIG job.
early congratulations!
On getting a job? Thanks! I appreciate your optimism
