What happens if they don't have a laptop?
- ojbyrne 16y agoWouldn't that be some kind of a contra-indication? Not a definite "don't hire" signal, but pretty close.
- abalashov 16y agoNow, sorry to say, but that's just a stupid presumption. It amounts to either economic discrimination against people who can't afford a laptop (for a whole host of possible reasons other than "I guess they never had a job that paid well because they are crap programmers"), or at the very least, prejudice against people who work on desktops and don't like laptops. Not every programmer is a laptop-wielding RoR nomad who writes code wherever, whenever. Some people need their special cave and their fixed rig. Don't assume everyone is like you.
