What do you think Walmart does when they enter a new market, the eat losses till the local competition folds and they are the only option left

Yup, and we have so many different regional cuisines but you'll mostly just find north Indian and a little bit of south Indian restaurants in the US

I think the Chinese government also supported the Chinese restraunt industry similarly in the US

I don't understand how game dev works, how does a publishing company fire the CEO of a game dev company. Like do these publishers own the game company?

Someone sent me a text message that wasn't to my liking so I ruined their day and cost them 100s of dollars just to teach them a lesson instead of just telling them not to send low ball overs and blocking him, yeah your dad's the asshole in this story bud

I think you are overestimating the intelligence required to get a degree in this country, also lots of intelligent people have religious beliefs of some level.

And most people who don't necessarily believe in god or practice any religion still respond to such questions with whatever religion they were born into because it's not important enough to them to take a hard stance like calling themselves atheist, or maybe they choose to be agnostic so they might not pick the atheist option.

My point is lots of factors go into surveys like these, they don't necessarily paint a super accurate picture, since any type of survey will have some external and internal biases and sampling issues baked into them

Yeah but the people at the theatre don't replace the concentrate pouches when they are running low so you still end up with diluted garbage that is mostly just plain soda water

One time I was in a theatre and I realized I forgot to put my phone on silent and then I thought who's gonna be calling me anyway lol

 

I got laid off in March as a software engineer 2 and since then I've hardly applied to many jobs, of the few I've applied to I got a handful of interviews which I couldn't even clear the first round of Leetcode test. I can barely solve 1 or 2 LC questions a day, and I've tried to read system design for a while but can't find any interest in it. Even if I solve the interview questions we'll I've been rejected, everything feels so pointless. I just want to play video games and watch movies till these darks days pass and there's another boon in tech hiring. But with AI it feels like many jobs won't ever come back. Should I consider changing careers or moving to another country. I don't think I have any real passion or talent for programming, but it's the only skill I have right now. I don't know what level of panic I should be feeling right now. I don't have any close friends or supportive family to talk to about any of this.

 

Hi, I recently got laid off from my current role, and I don't have a lot of time left to find another job. Find jobs that fit my work experience and applying to them takes a lot of time away from prepping for interviews. So I was thinking of hiring some 3rd party company that applies for jobs on your behalf based on the criteria you provide them. However, I am not familiar with these types of company and don't know which ones are legit and which are just taking your money and wasting it and giving back nothing in return. If anyone knows of a company that they think is legit and doesn't cost way too much, that would be helpful. I've read about some that also customize your resume to fit the role before applying, although I am not sure if this is a good or a bad thing. I live in the US and would prefer US based company but if there's a legit non US company, I am open to looking into them as well.
