What's going to give first? Interest rates? House Prices?
I was on the market to buy a place. First time home owner jitters, but interest rates started to rise fast. Buying power dropped so much that I'm dropped out. At these rates, I really need the price to drop by 20%-ish. I'm sitting on cash and it feels like shit. I wonder how other people feel.
I'm on working on my masters with gaTech's OMSCS. Taking a summer class atm, and will finish in the fall. Going to start on a new job search and maybe TA a class too.
I've quitted jobs without letting my employer that I was unhappy or disgruntled. In retrospect I should have let them know before I jumped ship; mainly because the grass is rarely greener on the other side and some of them could have changed.
As an engineer I ask for more cash so I can use options. I usually get it.
What about the non-techinical employee? I generally feel marketing, sales, etc are screwed in startups. How can a someone making < 75k actually use their options?
I keep seeing comparisons between Angular & React VS insert latest, but leaving out Ember. Are React and Angular solving different problems then Ember?
This just happened to me. 3 weeks in I realized the code base needs to be re-written because there was way too much technical debt. I should have quit then, but I decided to give it try. 6 months later, I hand in my two weeks notice.
Back in the 80's homes were 4-5x the avg income
2002 5-6x
Now 8-9x
I rather buy something on 12% that's 4x my income than what my option is today.
