Another theory I have involves concessions to webserver unions and/or acknowledging the need for time off to take care of the child processes. These fantasies are the only place I can find closure and sanity when my carefully filled ou

I had to file some forms on irs.gov about a year ago, and the web portal was only open on weekdays between 9am and 5pm eastern time. My fantasy explanation is that the form feeds directly into a printer, and they have a guy who takes the pr

Thanks for the critique! This is actually super helpful to me as I try to grow as a Rust developer. The point I'm trying to make though, is that if the developer's focus is on rapid development (which I imagine most people in webd

I strongly agree with this. Rust has been a pleasure to learn, and I've been using it for everything from small scripts to even some minor web-dev. That said I do think there are areas in which using Rust is legitimately not a great id

Being a CS academic myself I fully agree with what you just said. That said, the decision that they should the top three conferences (as opposed to the top 2, top 5, etc) in each area is a subjective one, and has the potential to signific

Because your enthusiasm is your most valuable asset. Enthused employees tend to be a lot more productive, and also drive up the morale among their peers.

This question is your friend. Don't view it as an "ok, so you did fine I guess, but you better justify your existence now and play mind games" type of thing. Instead, view it as an opportunity to end the interview with your b

This exactly! I like to make the car analogy: I have no idea how my car works. I mean, I more or less understand the principles underlying the internal combustion engine, but I wouldn't be able to service one, much less assemble one. B

My preferred solution to this is to generate links to resources like that (CSS, JS, etc) dynamically. For each filetype, set up your webserver such that `filename.[10-digits].css` is handled identically to `filename.css`. In apache, you can

The big thing for me in this regard is not worrying about dependencies (in a lot of cases). With Rust, when someone asks me for a script that does X, I can compile and ship a binary and they run it end of story. With python, I say "ok,
