I've never had a problem hiring engineers, in either of the countries or cultures I've lived in. It's been the same for tiny startups, and large organizations. I've never understood the complaints that it's problema

It depends how you view the problem. If one assumes that humans make mistakes - it's probably reasonable to show people things outside their selected search scope. If you're an exacting user, this is rather frustrating. Realistica

I've found my result quality has gone up dramatically now that I use extensions allowing me to block domains from google search results. It seems silly that I ought have to do this, but Google has finally become useful again as a resul

No. Unfortunately this is where Kuru Toga shines. It's the only pencil I have for this reason.

They're the same skill. The difference becomes implementation. When delivering consistently what you're also doing is critically examining when or if the trade off value exists. Sometimes the best answer is the one that maintains

I organize my day around my work - where work means professional and personal objectives. I list them, I prioritize them, and then I ensure I cut time out to at least tackle something. I put myself in the best environment (for me) to compl

You hit the nail on the head. There's a reason that the image https://149351115.v2.pressablecdn.com/wp-content/uploads/202... exists in their survey. Seriously, 59% of developers would find a company unappeal

Agreed - associative properties aren't solely basic algebra, but that is how they're (mostly) thought of in the early years. I'd argue a step further that commutative properties have a direct link to other subject, and aren&#

This is the problem. It's also horrifically bad for the future economy. For comparison, the rest of the world - at least the parts that want to catch up aren't running this slowly. Also - I think the lack of basic Science + Math e

How about instead, you offer me the ability to buy into your platform? Offer me the ability to use the platform, and pay a monthly fee, as opposed to seeing ads.

Financial data is a great example. Occasionally companies change their ticker symbol. multi-key access for the same data means that using everything existing under the covers the same data can be shared, graphs generated, etc - the very nex

Can confirm. I don't have an SO account, I don't have any social frankly - except for HN and WhatsApp. I feel the need to neither contribute to, nor be a part of this discussion. The Talmud teaches us that "happy is the perso
