Just google the tickers. These are penny stocks (or rather _way below a penny_) pump and dump scams.


I take it you consider yourself born on the right side of "not equal", more specifically the "better" side?

So they have to turn a profit in the literal sense.


Have the same one, get the docking station for it, it's dirt cheap on ebay (~10€) and you can hook up 3 monitors to it, if two of same have the same resolution (2x DisplayPort + 1x VGA).


Ah, the hyper-specific dementi? Doesn't tap data from _individual_ third-party merchants.


No specific merchants... It's just from the aggregate data from third-party merchants. And I bet that data is "anonymized" too.


And you would win that bet.

Some of the bigger vaping companies are owned by tobacco companies. e.g. Juul.


Germany is at about 30 cents/kWh.


I think he talks about the market price and not the end user price with taxes infrastructure etc.


So it's a pointless and artificial comparison? Because as far as I know, heat pumps are paid by the end consumer and not by "market price participants". Who are they anyway?

It seems you can make a nice deal when you are an electricity intermediary in Germany?


Why do you think that? He specifically said end user price for the gas.


which market price are you talking about? There are several.


These types of "audiophiles" don't believe in the Shannon-Nyquist-theorem, there's no reasoning with them.


What's the salary like to jump through all these hoops?

Is this really normal for web developer? I don't work in web dev, but I would absolutely not put up with this for only a 100k salary and getting paid roughly one grand for an interview process that takes in total days.

Reason why is because I've had interviews at other companies which are far less interrogative from the company towards me. For example, for my current job (embedded systems) I had:

- 30 minute phone interview with a technically competent hr rep - a quick very easy online quiz (multiple choice/few sentence answers) -one more 30 minute phone interview with a developer (open ended technical discussion) -onsite for roughly 2 to 3 hours with a dew developers, all very open ended technical discussions

It was honestly the best hiring process I encountered. I didn't feel like I was even tested during the interviews, it was genuinely enjoyable technical conversations.


As best I can tell, our process is not typical. But it's also not fundamentally a bad thing. It obviously doesn't interest you and I'm sure there are others who wouldn't apply for the same reason.

But, there are others out there who appreciate a more thorough approach and might view the process you described as inadequate.

Also, our salary range is higher for senior devs.

I think what matters is whether the process being used by the organization is resulting in the hiring of developers that are a good match. I'm glad we are doing things this way even though it makes hiring take longer and likely filters out candidates who could do the work. It's an imperfect balancing act, one I'm always looking to improve. The main point of the post I made above was to show how IMO take home exams can be executed well, not to argue that everyone needs such an elaborate application process.

Path of least resistance my friend, path if least resistance.


Because it is one.
