Which I understand, but I also see this as flawed since the person being interviewed will have their guard up and be nervous. This will skew what their personality is really like.

It's also a result of me calmly working instead of nervously taken part of an interview. The one thing that I've noticed is that it's very hard to judge someone's personality in these kinds of situations.

I think that's reasonable too. I wasn't try to say "github is my resume" because in my site I point out specifically projects that I made, and link them to the repo. Making the person pick out projects they are proud of

This seems like a reasonable process. However, for me personally, I have a big portfolio of side projects with open-source code. And it irks me if a company asks me to prove my programming skills by wasting my time doing some silly tests, w

I completely agree, I'm personally partial to the medium format cameras. From this interview, it looks like he used Nikon cameras: http://www.obstundmuse.com/chris-niedenthal/ > Jens Pepper: What camera did you

The iPhone does not have front facing speakers. Now that was their choice I understand, but to think that Google couldn't do it if they didn't want to is just not true. And there's plenty of Android phones with screen edge-to

I think people give Apple way more credit for their "innovations" than it should be due. For example, the people in this thread who think that Apple came out with the notch first.

This seems to be a very myopic view of a large and diverse country. I've seen both extremes when it comes to talent and ethics.

Not OP, but I believe when it comes to website copies, you can identify which one you are actually using by the url. So if someone makes a copy of dat://mylocalbank.com, their url would be just the hash (Eg. dat://c6740.

You're partially right. When you see someone be charged an outrageous amount for something that should be fractionally cheaper, that's a different reason. You see, hospitals mark up prices astronomically so that when they make dea

Although Net Neutrality under the Obama admin only narrowly applied to wireless carries, one of the things that applied was discriminatory blocking/slowing downs of specific content (if I remember correctly).

So really Apple should also get a similar fine since you can't install any other default browser or map.

It's still very early on, but I feel like this is a game changer for Chromebooks. Between web apps, Android apps and now Linux apps, they will become very developer friendly.

All this points to me is the risks of owning a phone whose only way to add apps is to go through one company's own discretion. Unlike in Android where you can easily install apps from other app stores or just download the file.

Keep in mind that his show is sometimes sponsored by PIA. But on that note, I've used them and have no complaints. Their speeds aren't as good as Mullvad though. Actually, no VPN that I've ever tried is as fast as Mullvad.

What's the issue/reason you see with Google Assistant calling to make a reservation for a business? Why do you need to avoid it?

I'm not sure I agree 100% with what you said, but I get the sentiment. If someone is worried about a dystopian crud, why would they purchase a Google Home or use the Google Assistant? Also, the parenting values I thought was nice, and
