Edit: fixed the job posting link


Wow - posted 4 mins ago and "404 The page you are looking for no longer exists." - I know jobs get filled quickly but that must be a record :)


I'd wager the comment used a months/years old link -- they used the same URL in July.

Here's another link with nearly the same job title: https://careers.siriusxm.com/careers/jobs/14830?lang=en-us


Thank you! It was indeed an incomplete copy/paste from my last "Who's Hiring?" post. I edited the original comment to fix it.

> it made the switch

Nice.


I happen to have just finished reading “Stranger in a Strange Land” for the first time a few weeks ago. In addition to having a super thought provoking premise, it coined the term “grok” which is so prevalent in tech circles. I never really questioned its origin, and I guess I assumed it was a borrowed word from Yiddish or something.


It's a really great word. We don't really have an equivalent in English that doesn't require some long awkward phraseology. "Deeply understand something at a fundamental level."


"get" is pretty close imho


I can think of several words like that, "comprehend" is the first one that springs to mind.


Have you actually read the book to observe how it was used there, or are you just responding to the previous comment?


"Comprehend" is a weak, distant cousin of "grok":

grok: "understand (something) intuitively or by empathy; [no object] empathize or communicate sympathetically, establish a rapport"

comprehend: "grasp mentally; understand"


To be fair, in real life, I usually see it used as a straight synonym for "understand" or "comprehend", just with extra geekiness. Very rarely is its special meaning actually intended.


I’ve never seen it used in that way, almost always it means to completely know something on a very deep level. To know it inside and out, etc.


Much more common is “expert” or “mastery” for that level of understanding, when I hear “grok” it means they read the Wikipedia page or did the tutorial or something.
