Hey tribe, If you are in a similar boat as the StackOverflow OP below, then you can find some useful pointers 👉 https://workplace.stackexchange.com/questions/173018/as-a-junior-is-it-unethical-to-leave-after-1-year-for-remote

The context

1 year ago, after a Master's degree I had my first real web developer job in a great startup (~50 people) along two other juniors, we all were trained and were given a lot of resources (time to work on side projects, daily meetings & any resource we asked for) which I am very grateful for.

I always have been pretty autonomous but thanks to them I'm a much better developer.

For ~8 months we were all in remote.

The problem

Today they want all of us to go back onsite which I don't find necessary, my question is: would be it very unethical for me to leave/threaten to leave right now for full remote?

The details

They basically trained me and now that I'm a bit productive I'm threatening them to leave if they don't offer something full remote, in my mind it seems very unfair but objectively I know I can find a full remote job, it would make my life so much easier but I would lose a great environment. Also I live far from my workplace and I already asked my manager for that, but he didn't offer any solution.

What monitor are you using? And does it have an inbuilt speaker?

Any suggestions for AA and AAA rechargeable batteries and charger. I was looking for duracell charger but the reviews are pretty bad.

Hey folks! 👋 Is anyone aware of any service which would pull out actual content from a web page automatically without me writing a scraper? (For this, let’s assume content like a single blog post or news article). I am aware of web scraping, Beautiful soup, etc. - but this requires more nuance. For example, if you look at this article: https://finshots.in/archive/videocon-saga/ I would be interested in getting the text from these lines:

The Story
Before we get to the story, a brief introduction on how Videocon went from being pioneers to defaulters.

till…

So yeah, with this, we have another successful bankruptcy resolution. But at this point you have to ask yourself — If this is what success looks like, where are we really headed eh?

Until then…

Need not be perfect but hopefully should get us mostly there. Any ideas?

Hey folks, Two questions regarding cover letters (CL) during job-hunt - specifically wrt Indian firms 1. In your experience, how much of a difference does the CL make in the application? 2. Any specific cover letter best practices, resources that you might have found useful? My struggle is with adapting my CL to any cultural differences for Indian firms. Really appreciate all the gems of advice and lessons learnt from the tribe over time. Cheers

Hey looking for a monitor for web Dev. Preferable 4K, curved, 32+inches. Should work well with M1 Mac book pro. Any suggestions?

Hi Everyone, I am planning to buy a laptop and looking for suggestions on what to buy. My first priority is good build quality and durability (I am not a rough user but I had a bad experience with a Dell Inspiron notebook some years back). It should be as light weight as is possible in it's segment and I'd prefer a 14 inch screen though not mandatory. This will mostly be used for work. I am a web dev so I won't be doing a lot of intensive computation as such. I'd also prefer an entry-level to good GPU so that I can do some occasional gaming. I'll be dual booting Windows + Linux and hence would prefer a laptop/config that plays nice with Linux. I had laid eyes upon the Dell Vostro 14 5410 (Because I assumed that the Vostro line up will have better build than the Inspiron line up), here I get a very basic Geforce MX250 (2GB), but I essentially give up the ability to do any decent gaming, and I am fine with that. I also came across the ASUS Zephyrus G14 which is a stretch on my budget but gets me all of the above with the sweetness of a decent GPU and scope for gaming (not sure of build quality and Linux compatibility though). I am not looking to go for an Macbook Air or Pro. I'd be grateful if you folks could drop some suggestions.

Hey guys, any recommendations for white boards? Looking to get a fairly large one to brainstorm on
