Unless you have a very short lap, why can't you do this? + + |ta| |kb| ---- Where the +s are your knees, "ta" is tablet, "kb" is keyboard, and the ---- is your waist.

The goal is obviously to figure out how good people will be at solving real problems. But it's not realistic, practical, or fair to come up with an unsolved problem for each interview.

This is consistent with the notion that many (most?) neolithic diseases are caused by inflammation, often expressed by people with paleo/primal/archevore/etc. diets.

>Win 95? Really? Not Windows 98 with the plus pack? Not Windows 2000? I was thinking of the OSes they released that were big leaps forward for their vast numbers of users. IIRC Win 98 was only an incremental improvement on 95. But I c

A non-exhaustive list of great MSFT products (I work for Google, no pro-MSFT bias here beyond a dash of meta-contrarianism): * Windows 95 * Windows XP * Windows 7 * Office 2010 * Zune HD * Windows Phone 7 * XBox * XBox 360 * Mice and keyboa

Right, yes, but the (semi-serious) point is that we don't have a crab grid in the same way we have a power grid, so actually implementing this (which is what the article is about, rather than just theory) might be hard. For the crab comput

Is "the critic" necessarily an anti-pattern? I felt a bit like this when I was a CTO, but I didn't have a choice - my CEO wasn't technical enough to understand how complex the things he wanted to do were.
