Thanks for bringing this up, I'm often lost in a setting with competing voices. I don't strictly need hearing aids but the few times I've had my earbuds in with ambient voice enhancements it's really improved my QoL. Gonna have to look into this more!
Companies seem to have lots of great policies from the inside but getting back in is the challenge for me, having been a stay at home dad for roughly 3 years now (also 2 kids in). Family responsibilities expand to use all available time so the time I have for grinding leetcode, working on my portfolio, or other similar activities comes late at night after the brain fog sets in.
I don't know if I'd go so far as to say it's active discrimination, but the hoops aren't doing anyone any favors.
Meta in particular is one company I backed away from after the recruiter helpfully suggested I study for 4-8 weeks before scheduling interviews.
Especially if they've been planting in the same plot for years.
Rotate your nightshades, people! If you keep planting tomatoes/potatoes/eggplants/etc in the same plot year after year, the Fusarium will build up and destroy your yield.
Yes, but these licenses have far more protection for me than regular licenses.
I'm working with a lawyer to ensure that these licenses are void if the user expects me to have any duty, like the Bitcoin lawsuits ([1], see comments at [2]) or the EU's upcoming Cybersecurity Resilience Act that might require me to be audited or worse [3], which I can't afford. (I do want an audit when I can afford it, though.)
1. (at least some of) the links from the FAQ entries to license texts appear to be broken due (presumably) to a change/transformation from `<filename>.md` to directory path.
2. It might be helpful to more clearly identify the text differences between the multiple licenses and/or at least the FAQs to enable skipping duplicated commentary when reading.
1. Yes, sorry. In the process of fixing those as the licenses are finalized.
2. That's a good idea, but I can't do that in the actual license documents since I need to keep the actual licenses clean from non-license materials. Do you have any good ideas how to do that?
