not sure where you got all that from the one word "good" but i'll respond with my personal opinions:

> expert in the exact shitty stack we're using

SF people are way more flexible. just hired an SF guy remotely who is a node guy to write ruby code because i can't find good rubyists down here. also given how much SF engineers have boners for new technology i don't see how you think they're the ones into super specialization.

> willing to be on-call 24/7 so we don't have to hire ops people

nope, SRE/ops is exploding, in and outside SF. even at my shit show company we have an SRE team. haven't seen a company without an ops team in a while.

I have never lost money on crypto. The thing is, you don't even need to be smart to do it. Just buy things when it's bleeding and sell when it's green and everyone else is euphorically FOMO-buying.

But so many people here do the opposite... they refuse to touch anything until it starts pumping. I have literally seen people on here say, "I'm not gonna buy X yet, it's still too low." What the fuck? And then of course it starts going down as soon as they buy, and they panic sell. People are so damn emotional...

Anyways, yeah I guess street smart is a way to put it. You have to be able to see through the bullshit that everyone else here gets caught up in. I never had a lot of money to start out with, so it's not like I got rich or anything, but I made a x1000 of my measly initial investment. Now I just trade little pumps like these, waiting for the inevitable bull market. And it will come, but most people on here are too impatient to believe that, which is why they lose all the time.

It's more about the logic it seems. As I said in another post, I'm in finance so my programming experience is limited.

if card == 11:
print("Jack of whatever suit")

elif card == 12:
print("Queen...")

Much cleaner just to create an enumeration for the value of the cards. That way they can be both values and strings. Could also define in the pre processor to replace Jack with 11 and such like that. Also might be better to use a structure that contains both the value and suit and create an array of those structures.

This is the real answer:

if (count == 1) return "Jack of Clubs";
if (count == 2) return "Six of Diamonds";
return "Doesn't matter";

Because that would drive away the competent employees. While workers are expendable, if the turnover rate is too high, it'll just end up backfiring.
