    IT/Software career thread: Invert binary trees for dollars.

    It's a colossal issue in tech. Software crosses geographical borders with zero cost. Onshore vs. offshore is a cost ratio of ~3 to 1. Organizations align their incentives towards offshore hiring at the working level--onshore hiring is frozen/positions are rejected while offshore equivalents are...

    Definitely a me problem—I haven't been in a regular watching habit in a very long time. Hence the request for best recommendations :). Will check out FMA: Brotherhood. Thanks, these are all new to me, will check them out. Also all new; on the list! I do try to follow these threads a bit--It...

    Summer 2025 Anime Thread

    Thanks, these are all great recommendations for me... but unfortunately I've read the manga for each. Other stuff I've read would be Berserk (GOAT), Hellsing, Claymore (god-tier ending, love when stuff ends well), Death Note, Golden Kamuy, Alice in Borderland, Assassination Classroom, Solo...

    As someone who grew up with the DCAU, sounds right up my alley.

    Project Hail Mary

    If you didn't read the book (like me), I'd probably stop watching that trailer at about 2 minutes. Feels like major spoilers. What the fuck Amazon.

    Predator: Killer of Killers (2025)

    Watched based on the recommendations in this thread. This was great. The whole thing is a lean 90 minutes that doesn't waste a second of your time. The animation... frame rate? is off-putting for the first few minutes and then you get sucked in and it just fades to the background. The actual...

    Investing General Discussion

    In this case, the answer is a bit more boring: automatic sale of vesting RSUs to cover tax obligations To further put that number in context, Stephen Cohen still owns something like 15 million shares of PLTR according to the filing. Guy's incentives are aligned.
