No true Scotsman is only a fallacy when you are never given a definition of what a true Scotsman is. That's when the fallacy appears. When the person saying it can always retreat to an ambiguous never stated definition. He won't t

I have genuinely started hating Jeff Atwood for this and the lemmings that followed blindly. Now I have to resign myself to being questioned if I can program not matter how many years of experience I accumulated.

The thing about take home interviews is that the code can always be better. No matter how experienced you are, a sufficiently anal retentive person will nitpick it apart. If you want to play their game, your only choice is to dedicate more

As a black person, I find this to be pretty racist. The idea that this will appease blacks or is wanted by us is deeply insulting. How disconnected from black experience can you be that you think this is important or desirable? It trivializ

Sounds a lot like the core "values" in my current company. Mind you, they are a bit different (are these protected by copyright?). I don't think I can play that sort of game. I know I have to do it in order to get promoted, b

I read the memo and you are right. I also agree with GP about reaping what you sow. However, I suspect that a lot of people will fail to see the parallels between both stories because their political beliefs requires them to engage in cogni

The vote was illegal according to the Spanish constitution, the supreme court later confirmed this. You adbicate nothing by refusing to participate in a illegal vote. You can't talk about democratic legitimatecy when only 40% voted.
