If you struggle being alone - you're not meant to be alone. It's not everyone's cup of tea

they build bunkers and yachts, they never build long endurance submarines. why is that?

Harder to defend yourself from your slaves/servants/guards when you're locked up with them in a tin can at the bottom of the ocean.

can't they all be automated away? and who needs guards 100m underwater? shouldn't a well built submarine be safer than an underground bunker?

I worked for a company that kept one job posting open for more than 4 years. They've used it to hire more than 100 people, but unless you worked there you wouldn't know.

Not too surprising. I've been at companies where a job posting is hyper-specific to one job description, as soon as I (as a hiring manager) change a single word, HR makes a new job posting and cancels the old one.

And also I've been in places like you describe, where one generic "Software Engineer" job posting is reused to hire many people into many teams, since they're all "Software Engineers" so they just recycle the same posting for everyone.

It varies a lot depending on HR culture.

Interesting to hear this data point because everyone would just claim it was a sham job that some companies post to get a feel of the market.

Funny enough, on a local glassdoor clone the guys who failed technical interview discussed exactly this possibility precisely because the post was open for so long:)

We called them funnel reqs. They were perpetually renewed. It was to get people hired fast.

It is a very good thing for political discussions. I don't see how it would benefit HN.

could you please name them?

thank you very much!

It's not "why do you need writing?", it's "how do you discover writing?". Once it's discovered the new purposes will appear pronto.

strange that no aws-based alternatives exist

Beg my pardon but what high ground clearance is needed for?

Ironically, the pretense of an adventurous lifestyle.

I used to joke about creating spray on mud as my million dollar product idea. Macho up your suburban assault vehicle with some many mud splatters without getting your hands dirty.

I see a lot of very well waxed and polished "off-road" vehicles in the nearby smallish city. I've never seen a rolling coal lifted pickup on a forest road. Actually looking dirty is not part of their aesthetic.

Yours truly, former owner of a ridiculously lifted jeep that's been all over the western half of the US and regularly went up & down dry creek beds with 1+ foot vertical drops/climbs that needed the clearance. That thing never saw a clean day. Hose it until there's no longer mud on the door handles.

It really does help in snow events.

Speed bumps and high curbs

Drive slow and don't go up curbs (there's generally people there!)?

high curbs? is it even legal?

never heard of that, thank you

No exessive caps.

No huge letters.

No colored background behind certain text lines.

No bright colors everywhere.

Nothing is blinking, nothing is moving.

This guy is obviously completely sane, just unorthodox.
