Pijul is a very exciting project. I’ve wanted to try it for months buy haven’t found the time.

Discomfort can be a good thing; change is often uncomfortable.
But that’s a far cry from being tortured and it sounds like that’s what Musk does to the people around him; using platitudes and words of wisdom as weapons of control and coercion.
I don’t think it will be that cut and dry.
A huge number of tech companies are still and/or will always be fully remote.
Over time, the big pay checks that Meta and Google and Apple are offering will be overshadowed by the possibilities of remote work done right (as opposed to simply working as you are in the office but from home).
There are lots of smart, talented folks out there willing to take a pay cut to gain back the time that office culture can waste, commuting first of all.
Sure there are challenges to the sense of togetherness that can help build great teams, but plenty of remote-only organizations make the time and space to foster that appropriately.
Ultimately, I think we’ll find that the eventual competitors to the MAANG-like behemoths emerge out of smart, well designed, remote-first organizations. Though I think Netflix is largely remote - at least for the engineers I know who work there.
Grateful that they don’t. But they have tried to do it with podcasts.
Spotify “pulled an Apple”, bought Gimlet and moved all their podcasts onto Spotify exclusively. I don’t use Spotify and chose to find alternatives. I’m happy I did.
If you like sweet BBQ sauces, Blues Hog original is wonderful.
My family thinks I have a secret rib recipe and it’s just a thin coat of Blues Hog original near the end of the cook.
I only found the sauce because a local BBQ place was selling it and I thought I’d try something new.
The only way to ensure privacy is something like PGP. Encrypt before you send. Heck you could even encrypt before you put the contents into a message body.
With self hosted, the messages themselves aren’t encrypted at rest and they are clear text between hops even if those hops support TLS in transit.
Ultimately the right answer for you will hinge on what your definition and level of privacy is.
I second this.
It's going to be hard. If the recruiter/TA Specialist is good at their job they'll try to get you to give a "ballpark." They'll do anything to try to figure out the lowest offer they can make.
Do not give in.
Hold firm and ask what their offer is and go from there.
In one case their offer was double what I was expecting. It changed my life.
In other, their offer was just slightly under what I was expecting and I got what I hoped for with little effort and only a single back and forth.
There is one exception here: if they really want you and you are ABSOLUTELY sure you're out of their salary band for the position, you can wield your salary demands like a sword. I recently used my expected salary (which I knew the company wouldn't match) to negotiate a 4-day work week at their full time pay, with an extra week of vacation tacked on for good measure. Win win.
They do indeed: https://httptoolkit.com/blog/apple-private-access-tokens-attestation/
From the article:
The focus here is primarily on removing captchas, and as such it's been integrated into Cloudflare (discussed here) and Fastly (here) as a mechanism for recognizing 'real' clients without needing other captcha mechanisms.
Fundamentally though, it's exactly the same concept: a way that web servers can demand your device prove it is a sufficiently 'legitimate' device before browsing the web.
pfBlockerNG at the network edge and ublockorigin on devices.
