I’ve never had trouble motivating people to do this. How? By hiring people in the first place who are mature enough to recognize that their job isn’t just writing code, it’s helping the company grow. And hiring people who aren’t just motiva

In that sense, cigarette taxes are also regressive. But extremely high taxes on cigarettes have helped a lot of people quit and deterred people from starting to smoke in the first place. In the long run, that helps people avoid spending mon

And in 1995, two thirds of children didn’t know what an 8-track was. Is this in any way a) surprising or b) a problem?

We give the candidate a take-home challenge (that only takes a couple hours). For the interview we essentially do in-person code review and discuss the candidate’s approach and any unusual choices they made.

But does having multiple types of spaces really change the psychology of the employees in the open office? And what percentage of companies using open offices actually bother with anything beyond one giant open room and a few meeting rooms?
