Technically Yeap.....

hr is the worst.
across all industries.

if you can not travel to the future to learn the language before its made, you are not qualified for this position

@synemeup question is how far. I could go a few milliseconds for sure

Its a skill bro. To talk with full confidence about stuff you have never experienced and worked with is definitely a skill that apparently I don't have. Sometimes I'm afraid to talk even though I'm the most skilled about the topic in the room...

That sounds like reqs I saw for node long time ago

Nah, it's simple:

"We want 10 years of experience with X, even though X was only invented 5 years ago."

Read that as:

"We expect that you worked 80 hours a week using X for the past 5 years."

WHICH IS ABSOLUTELY JUST AS FUCKED because NOBODY should work that many hours a week (well, I mean, if you actually WANT TO then have at it... but I dare say most people don't want to).

@fzammetti and in essence not a single human being would read that that way ever

@MadMadMadMrMim I guess I wasn't clear that I was being facetious. Of course nobody LITERALLY means that, at least not directly. I was, however, using a joke to make the point that some places DO expect you to work an insane number of hours... not officially, but as an unspoken truth... and that's fucked up. But also, there may be an intersection where people DO legitimately expect you to have more experience with a technology than you realistically should because they ALSO expect that you've worked insane hours. Put the two things together and you get my joke-that-in-a-way-isn't-really-a-joke comment.

@fzammetti we were on the same page :P

@MadMadMadMrMim Ah ok cool, wasn't sure :)
