He didn't simply ask for a country in the title, though, did he? He has to put in his 2 cents about a whole class of people behaving oddly. Indeed, the whole post seems to be a setup to complain about Americans being America centric.

I would remap, but the major reason for using vi is that I'm hopping onto another machine or docker instance -- then my problem would become propagating my .vimrc file everywhere. So I keep my vi knowledge to plain vanilla on purpose,

Facebook interviews were very much interactive with my interviewer probing me on O(n) type questions and me refining it down to be more efficient. I was certainly allowed to answer questions, typically about scale. My code which was on a

I answered one of those mind benders nearly immediately in an interview. I figured out the trick as they were telling it basically. They asked me if I had heard it before. I hadn't. A final interview with the CEO and he asked if I

Not directed at you, but here we are in a post about a CLI for Go, discussing Rust. It seems like every discussion of something related to Go requires someone to screech about safety (again, not you) and how Go is a terrible choice. I use
