No they are not positing they _only_ prior on the left are doing it. Militant left is as dangerous as militant right. The problem is not the side of the political spectrum but the approach to dealing with opponents.

Really depends on the country. And in a country could friend on the city. For example, in the Soviet Union, Moscow was off limits to the people who did not have a permanent place to live (as registered in the internal passport). They were f

Not really. At least: the web happened well before IE was introduced as an answer. In contrast, VS Code was invented much later than git which at the time was an established technology and in some ways a standard.

Joke is, it is pronounced "dead morose". Close but not quite (the first word is more like "dzed").

Yes. I think this "raising up the team" is called servant leadership. Not many people know how to do it, and it seems not many want to, because it does not help then look like heroes.

Absolutely! Actions should be more important than the names. However the names are not just labels, they often have meanings.

Industry seems to expect CS degrees to be vocational degrees. Yes, I think you hit the nail on the head here. Unfortunately, in some places software developers are treated not so much as engineers as more like advanced technicians.

Well, unfortunately many (both tech and non-tech) companies still want to hire developers with "x years of y language, n years of m framework" and so on. So there is some reason to ask for specific languages in the curriculum, fro

I have a feeling it is gradually more and more known as Node.js, so maybe the name will propagate back to the web community. EcmaScript has never caught on, for a number of reasons, some mentioned in earlier comments.

I am another one of those cases who hear "laurel" for most of the spectrum and something like "yelly" at the extreme right side. After hearing "yelly" at the rightmost position of the slider I still hear "

Yes, I think you are right. In this sense, high school prepares children/teens for the real life really well. :-(

So what do you do? How do you win attention of the hiring manager? I am asking because I may have (had) the same problem.

I'd rather see "waiting tables" rather than nothing But why? Maybe the person used that time to study technologies, to update her skill set. Maybe she used that time to relax and get a long deserved vacation. (Or a myr

I think you are fighting a metaphor with another metaphor. Saying that ants form a society indeed implies assigning them human characteristics (anthropomorphism) but saying that they are neurons basically suggests that there are common mode

I think what you described here is all too frequent and, frankly, infuriating. Obviously not the right way to hire people, but more profoundly, I think it reflects poorly on the collegiate nature of our profession.

I think the definitive and most authoritative review of the Russian grammatical cases was done by Zaliznyak: http://inslav.ru/images/stories/pdf/2002_Zalizniak_RIS_i_sta... , in Russian, pages 36-55. Fascinati

"Good enough for government work". The lowest bidder, etc. I have seen a large number of government web sites, and most of them, especially at the state level (I am talking about US states), have a horrible UX.

Right. Well, sometimes leaving is good -- for instance, when the new company is so exciting, or when the old one, uh, isn't.
