Functional programming works great for processing data - you don't want to change the data, and there isn't a lot of state. You largely write various transforms and filters, which is right in FP's wheelhouse. On the other han

Okay, I name you Patent Examiner Potentate. Just a few simple questions. Are wheels obvious? How about a wheel attached to two logs (a cart)? How about fire? woven grass to catch fish in a stream? Taking some seeds from a plant and planting

Your front page is scant on details, and I really don't like providing both email and a password just to figure out if I should send money to somebody. You don't have a published privacy policy, which reinforces that feeling. Okay

The whole Google (and silicon valley) interview process is a head scratcher to me. So, I'm 46 years old, kind of old compared to their usual hire. Their recruiter (they contacted me) suggested some books, and about a month's study

Here's the deal. Most classified information is segmented. Say I want to build a encrypting radio. I may have one team build the encrypting part, but they don't know it is for a radio. I have a second team build a radio, but they

UML slices code oddly. You can't fit a big system on a piece of paper. So, let's say you have a big graphics system. One of your base classes is Widget. It is almost certainly worthless to show every class that derives from Widget

Your profile says you have been working at a company for a year and a half, and you list no projects. Your github link contains a tic tac toe solver. You've given us nothing to judge you by. Everyone has Ruby on Rails, TDD, Agile, and
