>I hope you're compensating them for the time. Junior, or otherwise, that's disrespectful of the candidate's time. Typically, we provide a small compensation for the candidates time, although it probably doesn't amoun

I do occasionally give take homes that could take this long but it is only when the candidate is purely junior and doesn't have much/any work to review and show for themselves, but shows a lot of promise from a general employee pe

ehhhh... Simplot (major potato producer/processor). Then there is the Amalgamated Sugar Factory (turns sugar beets into sugar). Outside of that, plenty of service level work. More tech in neighboring Ada county with Micron, HP and a lo

When I lived in NY I felt the same way about the DMV. Here in Canyon County Idaho there are a good 10-15 agents and I've never waited more than a few minutes. Guess we take all the savings from our poor education system and put them in

I use AirPods daily with my 2015 MBP and never have disconnect issues. When I first got the AirPods it was far less reliable but I believe a firmware update a couple months after launch cleared up whatever issues I was having.

That’s really interesting. You described exactly the street where my office is.

I’d love to see the vast trail systems of the US get the street view treatment.

I'm not sure I understand why someones English reading comprehension should matter when it comes to servicing a vehicle if they are an experienced mechanic at a reputable shop.

So they just eliminated the cupboard? They must not have a whole lot of dishes!

I'd love to read a full account of your experience... I feel like if more people had any clue this was happening they'd think a little more about what they are allowing on their personal network.

I was mostly meaning the first example you provided. These platforms are so good (at least they claim to be) at matching users and ads because of their extensive data collection/sharing practices. Is it cool to say "We respect our

I've asked this before on here and didn't get much of a response. If Apple truly believes in privacy, does this mean that they have a strict policy against using the data provided by companies that have a lower ethical stance on d

If I were posting my project to this community it would be for brutal honesty from my peers, not just to drive sales and get accolades.

Does anyone know what Apple's stance is on using Facebook/Google/etc for targeted advertising of their own products? My assumption would be that they use every tool at their disposal to advertise/sell their products, but

If you have FU money but also brain cancer or live on a planet by yourself, the money doesn’t mean much. Definitely a sobering thought. How rich I really am...

I would think the negative sentiment in the tech sphere would hurt them more on inability to continue hiring the best talent... Granted, that is assuming that most people can't be bought, which is unfortunately probably not the case.

I'd say its more of a broad taste-test of various shit varieties. From my recollection, grade school didn't go too deep on any one subject.

To be fair, this isn't a consumer product by any stretch of the imagination. HP has been in the business market for a long time on large format printers as well as servers, where the money isn't as much in the media as it is in th

I didn't vote you one way or another, but what I gathered from the post was that he/she doesn't put Trump/Putin anywhere even close to the atrocities of the Nazi's and despite how he feels about them, times are far

It was probably 1/2 way through the lifespan of the Wii U that our team was approved to develop for the platform. Not sure how restrictive they were before that. Everything I've heard is that Nintendo is really trying to keep the

I haven't checked in on it recently, but last I did inquire, they were being very selective with developers that they approved for development on the platform. I think they decided to go with a highly selective quality over quantity ap

One thing I've wondered is how people deal with car seats with Uber/Lyft/Taxi's. Do they carry their own with them and take the time to install it and uninstall it? Do you just take the bus and not worry about a car seat

Did any of the pre-internet Time sucks have the ability to monitor billions of people’s usage patterns and incrementally fine tune so as to increase time/money spent? No, I didn’t think so...

I’m sure there are a large range of mobile home building quality but the many that I have ever been in have had thin walls and cheap finishes inside. Maybe it’s because of the price point they need to hit for their target market. Most tiny

Sorry about that. Upon re-reading I see that you did specify developers. I will add that most of the developers I work with don't like to mess around with their work computer much... I'm sure at home they like to customize and do

I think you paint pro's with a pretty wide brush. Pro developers or IT people, sure... Pro animators, designers, architects, engineers? I think many pro's just want their system to be fast, run their software and complete their ta

Definition of rape culture: a society or environment whose prevailing social attitudes have the effect of normalizing or trivializing sexual assault and abuse. Seems an appropriate use of the term.

I fear the grand majority of people and companies prefer economic advantage over what's right at the end of the day.

Yeah, they really shouldn't deliver anything their driver can't get at least to the door. I doubt if their insurance policy covers injuries that might happen to a customer helping move a package from the truck to the dwelling.
