mofeeta··on Ask HN: Getting a job at a FAANG as a senior/principal engineer
Thanks for the response, but I'm not following you. I'm not asking if I should take the director position or not, but what I should focus on to get a job at a FAANG. It seems like just grinding leetcode might not be the best course given that I'm a senior engineer.
mofeeta··on Ask HN: Does anyone here make a living only from internet gigs?
I've thought about getting into the crypto space on-and-off for the last six months. Were there resources that really helped you with the transition? What would you recommend for someone with a lot of dev experience?
mofeeta··on Ask HN: Top Skills to Learn for 2022?
This is wonderful. Thank you.

I have questions about how much it would cost to get started in the way of tools, but I'd imagine the resources above will cover that, so I'll RTFM. I'm hoping it won't require my finding some old-school lathe from the 1950s...

I've wanted to dip my toe into the machining world. I have basic tools, mainly for routine home maintenance. Is there a book, website or course you'd recommend to get started?
mofeeta··on Ask HN: Do you think web3 is a hype or a real thing about to happen?
I've started to dive into smart contract development, mainly to do contracting on the side. Do you think this is a viable path? How is the job market for dapp/block chain developers?

I've been closely following the recommendations by zoenolan, here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28333766

Are there other resources you'd recommend?

I'm curious what you've seen in your friends that would make them seem massively better. I've thought of trying out supermemo, so I'd like to hear how it's helped you.
mofeeta··on Ask HN: What are your passive income sources?
Are you willing to field some questions via email?
mofeeta··on Ask HN: What skills would you invest in learning?
I'm curious - are there resources you'd recommend to bone up on sales?
mofeeta··on Ask HN: How big does an open-source project need to be for a lifestyle business?
Any particular sales class/course you'd recommend?
mofeeta··on How I Ended Up In Solitary After Calling 911 For Help
If this is really how things went down, then suing the city seems reasonable. The rest of your comment is a little over the top though, no? Have the police in question spend years in prison? The only good cop is a dead cop? I'd imagine the OP doesn't think this way given his usual, positive interactions with the SFPD.

mofeeta··on Think Stats: Probability and Statistics for Programmers
Thanks, I'll check it out. It looks like he has authored a couple of stats books, too, that might be worthwhile.

Your second link was an eye-opener. Can you recommend any textbooks or an online class (or its remains) that teaches Cobb's recommended curriculum?

As would I. Email sent.
