Asians got in rather easily though so the effect of workplace biases can't be that hard to overcome. Why did they get accepted? Because they are awesome at tech! If women suddenly became as awesome at tech as Asians then they would get

She didn't get the man fired, mainstream values got the man fired. In retaliation the hacker community did the same thing and got her fired. Sadly individuals will always get hurt when ideologies clashes.

Call future colleagues and ask about the work environment, will definitely tell you more than all the bullshit you hear at interviews and job postings.

It is very important to understand that you can't expect that your mind will work properly during an interview. So if you can't do it in your sleep then it isn't good enough. There are only two ways to reach this stage, eithe

You can easily make an O(n) solution without reordering them by using two pointers; one to read numbers and the other to keep track of where to put the next even number.

Sounds like you hired someone who spent 200 hours studying interview questions instead of learning how to program.

Someone gets paid less than me for the same job: "Beware, no way he can charge that little and still do a good job!". Someone gets paid more than me for the same job: "He must be spending more time on politics than actually w

This is great as long as you limit the question to things you think that the interviewer can answer, everyone loves to show off their own proficiency.

by Klockan 12y ago
Any interview question is pointless if you can't objectively judge its answer, or at least there has been no study able to prove their effectiveness. You can use it to test for social skills, but for that you could talk about anything

Their pay hinges on your belief that they care about you which is why they learn to act. Well acted kindness will always seem better than sincere kindness. Just look at movies if you don't believe me, the good actors there seem more li

It is rude for them to ask about your current wage so you should get offended by it. There is no legitimate reason to ask for someones salary; the only reason they ask is to screw you over. If you don't think that it is rude then you c

I have a hard time understanding what you are looking for, can you give an example of such a programming problem?

The main points of it is that it increases arousal so it is much easier to focus on what is important right now (fight or flight state, you don't zone out if there is an angry bear in front of you). The side effects comes from the incr

The problem isn't that you can't focus at all, the problem is that you can't focus on things that aren't exciting, chess is way more exciting than most programming tasks. Everyone can focus on exciting things, but normal

The problem isn't that programming is boring, the problem is that you can't focus unless the task is interesting. Not being able to focus for more than 30 minutes as an adult is abnormal. But programming is mostly boring and tedio

I don't agree, having all engineers in the same room is akin to having only global variables in your code.

No, groupoids breaks the group operation and thus behaves like neither of the groups. Do type systems allow operations between union types? If not then it is just a simple interface in OO. If they do then you are no longer working with pure

I agree, even the presidential election is decided by an algorithm.

I wont believe in functional programming as long as not even mathematicians prefer it.

by Klockan 12y ago
Union types is not a key concept in abstract algebra, I bet that most mathematicians have never even heard of it. I'd like to hear about its use in abstract algebra, how would you define the union type of the simplest of simple objects

Java has no functions and is the language which gets harped on the most, so this is obviously not the main issue.

So, a method which involves making applicants do a ton of useless free work, costs the employer a ton of money and led to a total of zero long term hires is better than what we currently have? How?

If you are weak at every language then it certainly is a problem.

You can create humans without any effective free will, slavery existed for a long time. Do you honestly believe that an artificial lifeform will be harder to control than normal humans?

What do you believe that middle-lower managers do then?

If this were true then we wouldn't have thousands of books and courses on how to trick interviewers.

This is universal and there are studies supporting it. Most of the interview is spent just affirming the initial impression. If the initial impression is good then they will spend the hour trying to find your good points and vice versa. Sho

Isn't the definition of a start up that they lack bureaucratic tendencies such as recruitment targeted at niche employees? When you are well off enough to care about tokenism you are no longer a start up.
