I wonder if there's a word in English to describe this. A headline/sentence like this would be so absolutely ridiculous in a work of fiction, but there's no such bar, so to speak, for real life!

Can someone more knowledgeable explain the economics of how all this will work? If the current outlook is that AI will replace programmers, then many other office jobs will be the first or not far off. At that point, who are these corps se

For a lot of people, psychological safety is paramount over even money, especially in the United States where your employment is tightly tied to healthcare, insurance, etc. Secondly, more often than not, doing "well" or doing &quo

Why can't you fathom that something cannot be incomprehensible to the human mind? Imagine an ant sitting on your arm. Do you believe it's cognizant and aware of your existence? Now imagine humanity being the ant to a higher intel

I don't know what constitutes as 'great' and 'dedicated' in your books, but I'm pretty happy with how my career and life so far ended up at. I joined a FAANGM straight out of Uni, wrote code that currently runs

Multitasking is not optimal is true. But If the quality and quantity of work is deemed acceptable to the company, why does the employee need to work at a higher level of performance than required? I run a couple of marathons a year, but I s

The "NameDrop" is one I'm surprised it took so long to come to fruition. This was a use case I've wanted in phones for over a decade.

That's what my solution after the parsing would be. OP mentioned reading from a file, which you would only be able to use after string conversion to ints.

Looks like I'd fail your pre-screen test. What's the "mathematical" solution if you're not allowed to convert strings to ints? Ascii math?
