Not OP, but NASA is very old school and the tech stack is old, not to mention that things move slower than a turtle (so much bureaucracy) and the fear of losing funding. It's just not a great place to work for anecdotally speaking. At

It's sad to see HN users just downvote something they don't agree with instead of responding to the arguments made berg. berg, what other options do we have besides capitalism? We saw how millions of people died of starvation with

It's very hard finding high quality things that are cheap, and it's very easy finding low quality things that are expensive. Rule of thumb is to read the 3-start (and below) reviews for anything that you're planning on buying

A lot of down votes, but I have yet to see a response to the valid question of "what other scalable solution do we". Don't attack the person. Attack the argument.

When you say "someone who can't code", what exactly do you mean by that? Does it mean that they have no idea what a for-loop is? Or that they have basic understanding of a programming language, but lack the fundamentals? And

Agree that the system is broken. Not to defend the current interview system, but what other scalable solution do we have other than LeetCode type of questions? How would we be able to show that someone knows how to write code without testin

Or at least they should be able to understand the project from a technical point of view. One of the most frustrating things working with non-technical managers is their lack of understanding of the effort needed to accomplish a task. Oh yo

Hi Nikita, this is a fantastic idea. I've have been working with low level programming for a long time and would love to contribute new lessons. How can I do that?

Exactly! We can help out. Please let use know if you need any contributions from the community. Myself and (I'm sure) others are willing to help with this. I am sick and tired of wasting money on buying products that last a year or two
