Some stayed at home to take care of the kids. Others upleveled and went for jobs that pay better wages. A bunch of people died as well, I wonder of this affected the job market. I'd love to read a study on this specific topic.

Depending on the country, it can be due to local regulation. I don’t think it is required yet in the US E.g. AVMS in Europe. Youtube had to implement age verification.

I really enjoyed this SciFi book - Dark Matter: A Novel

In this world he’s woken up to, Jason’s life is not the one he knows. His wife is not his wife. His son was never born. And Jason is not an ordinary college physics professor, but a celebrated genius who has achieved something remarkable. Something impossible.

Another good one from the same author - Recursion: A Novel https://www.amazon.com/dp/1524759783/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_i_G0...

Hi David, Thanks for doing that. As someone that was affected by the layoffs, this is really helpful.

Currently on the final round with Facebook, they mentioned that they hire L5 and above. E3 & E4 is on hold.

Yes, it’s not new to manipulate people, the low cost for high efficiency is new. Clinton had almost 3M more votes than Trump. It would be much more expensive to manipulate 3M (1% us population, 1.2% voters), rather than 70k (0.02% pop, 0.028% voters). If winning the election is about properly manipulating 0.04% of the voters, that’s very scary and not working as initially designed.

Edit:math

Why aren't we talking about the Cambridge Analytica scandal example? Another issue of the Electoral colleges is that a candidate could target only a few amount of people (70k according to the documentary) for changing the course of the election. Even if this has been fixed by Facebook. Shouldn't it be considered as a major flaw of the election system?

Depends where you live. Spending $2k a month after rent in the bay area is common, especially if you are two. $800/month in groceries, $200 gas/person, 2-3 dates (or restaurants with friends), utilities ($200+), Insurances ($200+)...

There are a lots of benefits from using wisely these cards without overthinking.

Looking for a Sr/Lead UX Designer position (would consider Design Technologist / Interaction Engineer). Broad tech experience morphing complex systems into an intuitive and elegant solution. 10 yrs+ in UX Design, Software (Java, web, mobile) and Cognitive engineering.

Stay strong, you have the will. Please seek help if you keep having these thoughts. You should be able to find free help on that matter.

Practicing sport keeps my mind focused and the negative thoughts away. I find it a great free anti depressant.

I subscribed to Indeed Prime, they offer free coaching (resume help, mock interviews...). With your background, you should be selected.

Have you got feedbacks from employers?

Did you apply to unemployment? Can you take a side job in the meantime (e.g. Uber)?

Don’t overload yourself and do a little everyday.

Why don't you have design review and design sessions with the designer? This is the type of thing that we talk about on a daily basis (I used to code and now design). If the Dev or PM has a compelling argument, we negotiate, compromise or stop at each other desk.

I bet that the Ads is not his call but marketing :)

Would you mind developing a little bit? How would you sell the idea and get your customers first? I kind of get it, but it would be nice to have few examples.
