Geohotz had a good rant about this once - the kind of people who need to cram leetcodes and memorize algorithms are not the kinds of people who Google wants to pass these interviews. Makes a lot of sense, you could solve all these questions

Well to them it wasn't so much early as it was inconsistent. I mentioned somewhere else in this thread bank-to-bank transfer like the ones I was making are through the Faster Payments network which means they reconcile same-day - I don

Sorry, but nope you are wrong again, I was never paid after the 20th. Payment was always before or on the 20th, in 3 years not a single rental was after the 20th. I am sorry I am not fitting your curve neatly.

Nope not illiquid (quite the jump made there on your behalf given the available information). I get paid “on or around the 20th” every month. In some cases it’s earlier (if the 20th falls on a weekend I’ll be paid the Thursday before that w

But the landlord (the societal arbiter) agreed in this case - the software denied me. Very much an issue of the software in this case.

In competitive rental markets, there will always be another tenant who will not be "difficult" in the eyes of the agent who will snatch the place up from you if you start going off the beaten path. Before I got my place there were

Hey I don't make the rules - but if I don't play by them I lose a place I really wanted to live in. Sucks, but that's life.

OP here - Estate agent asked for 6 months bank statements, which I assume was requested by the referencing agency. I don't think is common practise in the U.K, but I asked around and lots of people told me it is more common that the la

I recently moved house. I was previously living with my friend, and we had an agreement I pay sometime before the end of the month. He gave me a contract and said you'll need this, just because when you go to the next place they will a

About 6 months into my first proper gig I was working on some code for emailing people in estate agencies. Typically you've got three channels, Rental, Sales and Commercial there. This was a Java Spring app and I didn't really und

I had this and then got an M1 MBP and it flickers wildly on dark backgrounds when connected via USB-C. I think that's going to be my last Apple laptop.

Are you sure they aren't being run through Rosetta? If I remember correctly, x86 apps run through a translation process on first launch which obviously takes time. An acceptable trade off given the alternative is to not have the app at

I was just thinking the other day that searching for TODO is probably a very good way to search a project for potential bugs or security issues. E.g; I see a bunch of todos in Firebase iOS SDK that look kind of interesting to an attacker. W

That reason being digital signatures. You can get the same confidence from posting an MD5 hash to check. Xips are an awful solution to fix a solved problem.

Other people in this thread have expressed it, but the reason it's not useful is because most developers are doing something like UML, but it's not UML - so you get none of the benefits of the Unified part. When I see a good UML d

Looks like they've made an web-app ( https://pod-sources.cocoapods.org/ ) to check the distinct sources of a pod so you can have a fish to see if a source location url changed behind your back. Would be good to show a li
