@Demolishun Brandon hasn't been relieved and happier since endorsing Orange Man.

@antinazi is that you ostream lol?

Goodammnn you all lmao. Yes people have hard dicks. ....

@retoor lol yeah, I just made a random acc to see.

My thoughts to myself: Probably short this company mid IPO..

Another anonymous employee:

"Make no mistake - regardless of its size, this still is a founder-led company through and through. I fear for how Canva will fare with this command-and-control leadership once it IPOs. Cliff is the most vocal founder, and the most present internally. His management philosophy is a series of Sun Tzu quotes, used to justify blunt tactics like spending $1B to acquire an Adobe copycat product, then leaving his sales and product teams to pick up the pieces. Mel, a brilliant product mind, hides in an ivory tower and is barely visible to the company, working instead through a small cadre of trusted advisors. Cam, who seems to be the most grounded, is a “floating founder” and nobody knows exactly what he does.

@darksideofyay maybe but 40 B valuation???. My best is < 500 million. That is also stretching too much. Even the most talked company don't get much amount.

From a former designer working in Canva:

"In terms of career growth, I observed individuals with limited working experience and inadequate skills placed in management roles. I even witnessed comical examples of a previous product director creating propaganda slides eulogizing the CEO's creativity by placing her alongside legendary figures. (Steve Jobs, Socrates…)

Unfortunately, licking boots seemed to be a requirement for a promotion.

The company culture was toxic, with gaslighting and confidence destruction being the norm if one disagreed with the majority or leadership. I still suffer from PTSD after one year I quit."

@retoor Yes Billion with a B.

A graphic design tool that now can be automated by consumer grade run AI.

This is also a private "startup" for a 40 freaking BILLION dollar company, and is hyped often by media and financial analysts and Richard Branson..... Something does not add up.

I would not be surprised if this blew up like WeWork or Theranos someday.

@jestdotty Biden is a family man, straight bestowed from God. The man is a saint.

Kamala speaks, cuts through the essence of an evolutionary spirit through her motivational speeches.

lmao. I was on a meeting, and sneaked into devrant to find myself burst out laughing looking at this. Holy shit xD

.

@jestdotty Can relate. Never mention about your other work to anyone. Have it never traced back to you.

Once you think it's ready, simple take a work break to make it look like you did it in your free time lol.

Is it really that hard? Plenty of choices to go about it.

@donkulator If you have tons of money saved up, yeah go all in. Just saying the safest option. With the later, you just need to be optimal with your time.

Working for a big corp, is already a half-assed job if you are not managing people, so there is that.

You survive as well as you have a fallback if your startup doesn't take off yet.

@Grumm lmao good luck obedient boy. Or Be discrete will ya.

@jestdotty that was the most inspirational thing she said ever. Makes me want to jump out of my bed and smash all my goals.

@Jifuna koolaid

@retoor there are other avenues, they'll have to shut down internet for good otherwise.

But instead of outright censorship, remember they tried to introduce bill about 250K fine and/or 20 years jail term for even accessing tiktok, iirc

@Demolishun yeah I've found it better to form truth by multiple points of data rather than getting information from single source.

I've dismissed western media entirely, since there are simply too many past contradictions. Can't keep a story straight if you follow it for a long time. It relies mostly on a dumb populace, like someone here ;)

@jestdotty you are a top tier, top dev in the class.

Imagine working with sleazy chums over a long period of time, dimbag darrell wants you to show how to connect to the database. They drag you down, grinding you. One day you wake up and you find yourself an average, because you wasted too much time, until you habituated yourself to want the same things as dimwit matt.

@Liebranca Suck some Garbage Collected dick bitch

@Lensflare Yes I am aware, I specially mean tracing GC in this context. Memory is not the only issue you need to solve.

All those other management styles you mentioned work for not just memory, but resources too.

@Hazarth I don't see a place for GC language other than incentivizing lazy ass programmers like the ones here. Which app is compute only these days?

@Hazarth Anything beyond a toy console program, that isn't just running pure computations, you still have to treat things like database, file handles, network objects like you manually manage memory.

And try talking to the GPU, you are right back writing code that have to manage GPU memories. Ever wonder why don't have GC in GPGPU computing libraries?

@devRancid yes Clown. With languages like rust, very easy to trace what holds long lived object. With GC, people tend to use it for other stuff like connection pools, while you have to treat it as if you were manually managing memory anyway.

But I can tell you only write toy programs

@jestdotty No you are wrong, it's the will of the people and democracy we all envy.

@electrineer hello son of a biatch!!

The moment you figure out to connect the money flow with linux and not end up like the cautionary tale like Loki Entertainment (company that did exclusive ports to Linux), you can make it happen.

Though I think Linux market is larger than in 2002 (year loki ent folded) just because overall market share is larger .

I think few companies already doing this btw. Do it mudafkaas xD

@mkamelll depends on what you want to do. Afaik its a testbed for red hat. Use a stable distro if you want to get work done. Personally I prefer a mac.

Ubuntu or debian. Just wasting your fucking time otherwise.

Nixos? Guix shit? FUCK THAT SHIT!!!!

Nobody wants to replicate your shit into gazillion machines. Unless you keep bricking your own machine!

@BrodeoCodeMan That is assuming you have the same or more number of developers in the job market pool

That would decrease too. ;)
