Just a new term used during and after COVID. It comes after the initial 'tech screen' round. They call is 'virtual onsite' sometimes. It involves giving multiple interviews in a very short duration. A positive decision in these 2-3 rounds pushes you forward to the final round with the hiring manager.
I think the lesson to be learned from the parent comment is to put candidates at ease and let them express their interests. I think it doesn't matter if you chose to use "teach me something" specifically. However, it does matter how to try to be accommodating towards the candidate either by asking about their hobbies, some recent news any fond memory/project etc.
Maybe they mean the water cooling systems used in the data centers. As far as I remember, it was a closed system so I don't know if that's significant.
I would like to highlight the small bit of positive in the American system. I don't support the removal of abortion law, nor do I like mixing religion with politics. But, due to the system that exists in the USA, even though the government removed the right to abortion, the individual states can still support it and form their own laws around it. However, a similar situation in other countries would result in complete removal without any option.
Agreed. I get that both might have the same level of access to my data but if I was staying in USA, I would be much more okay with my data getting in the hands of an organization which is within the jurisdiction of the democratic country I live in. Also, given the global political scenario, China is considered a competitor/enemy due to opposite ideologies (not my personal opinion) so the choice is obvious. However, whether USA is/will stay a democracy for long is a longer debate.
