Well... yes. I think that for most HN commenters, who work for a non-hourly salary and provide hard-to-quantify value in a seller's market for labor, it's generally possible to get a day off if you need it.
Many tech companies have gone to "unlimited" PTO, so there's no cost to taking a few days off. But even outside that, almost no managers are following the letter of the law. Last time I changed jobs, my employer at the time had explicit PTO time, but unlimited sick leave, and in practice during COVID (and especially near any holiday) was pretty lax with accounting for "I need to be out on Friday afternoon" as long as work was getting done and you were somewhat responsive to email/pings on the day in question. I wasn't hunting very actively, so it was just the one day of interviews with one potential new employer - I concede that if you needed to do many full-day interviews, it would eventually become conspicuous.
I recently applied for an effectively specialized support job at a FAANG.
After filling up a form ~40min, and one technical interview ~1hr, I got an email to congratulate me for moving onto the next stage and to get ready for 5x 1hr interviews.
In NZ where I am from, this is unheard of, so I asked if they were paid interviews and what is the pay range for this job (since it was not discussed at all at this point). They very carefully made sure not to answer any of the questions so I said I won't proceed with my application and gave a bit of feedback that they are looking for desperate people, not talented people.
Hey that's pretty awesome, I'm ok at the regex stuff, but not that familiar with NodeJS. If you don't mind throwing me a snippet to develop from, that would be much appreciated.
I agree. As someone who works with numerous customer environments this extension is critical for my productivity. Having a different profile (ie Chrome style) is nowhere close.
If the container re-ordering patch[0] would be implemented it would be perfect, but it seems to be stuck in limbo.
If Brave implemented this and did it right (with sorting & reordering) I would consider switching.
