Sounds like your company is missing a style guide. Has nothing to do with Rails.

Agreed.

Show me an integrated framework that is easier to upgrade than Rails.

One of my biggest complaints is that core libraries and most popular libraries do not support method chaining, builders, or factories. This makes for extremely verbose object creation and configuration. Similarly, the static typing syntax i

So, basically nothing in real world domain. The protections are basic at best. The most common errors are runtime exceptions, zero protection offered. YMMV.

That's what email is for already. An out-of-office message just reiterates the fact that email is not reliable and not time-sensitive anyway. There's no point. Every single email could have an out-of-office message, saying if you

I would say there are much more complex phenomena than a few bajillion atoms and electricity bouncing flailing about on the surface of a mostly-water planet.

JavaScript promises, which are basically a way to respond to asynchronous functions.

Isn't that the entire point of an interview to suss out the response to that question through, albeit, through indirect means. If you just ask it directly, you're not going to get honest answers.

If you have physical access to the device, aren't all bets off anyways?

The smooth drag reduces eye strain caused by animating/easing a detailed image with low FPS.

Keeping Fortran code is technical debt in a similar way that keeping your VHS videos is technical debt. Sure, you may be able to find tools to use Fortran in the near term. But how do you protect the future. Does it play well with emerging
