   I know exactly how you feel and have experienced it in two different work environments, first as an intern during college (which only lasted 3 months but felt like eternity) and second as a senior level engineer for about a two year period.

   I imagine a Director of Compliance in the Russian or Chinese government has more authority to force people to comply.

   thanks for the response, I would ask the school but feel I'm unlikely to get an accurate answer from them (as they probably don't know themselves)

   I think it boils down to 'most founders' not continuing to walk around and talk to people. In my experience the non-empathetic leaders were the ones that were rarely if ever seen interacting with the general staff, either through

    The default compiler options for java provide a lot of information on null pointer exceptions. I'm sort of blown away that so many on this thread are confounded by NPEs, in my view they are dead simple to track down if you have acces

    You are assuming that they have access to the original source code and an ability to edit that source as well, which may not be the case. If it were me and I didn't have the original source I would decompile it out of curiosity.
