What industry is this? For front-end developers, if you're not fast enough as a company, the best candidates are already gone. Talking about Europe here, not sure how it is in US.

Well, because it's a totalitarian regime, they actually don't have to do anything. The party members just live in wealth and let the others live with the problem. That's the difference with democracy. In a democracy, the lead

The cuts are mainly obvious because of the sound glitch. I think when they would have a better crossover of the audio, it would be way harder to notice.

The censored "Temple of Doom" scared the shit out of me. (WARNING: Spoilers!) When I was young my cousin had a VHS of "Temple of Doom" recorded from the BBC. We didn't know this was the censored version. So there wa

If it's a small company, definitely the in person team. Information just flows way faster, and if you get to keep your employees, you don't need to "waste" too much on documentation, since everyone knows everything. For

Ok, different problem then: if you allow all real women (as you define them) in female sports, then there will be no people who were born as female in the top sport. Maybe not a problem for you, but it is a problem if you were born female.

I'm all in favor of accommodating trans people to live a happy and fulfilled life, but everything has limits. If you define "real" as in: only a real man and a real woman can reproduce, then I guess there is your limit. That&

Calisthenics is great, but these guys always seem to forget they have legs. Of course extra weight on their butts and legs would mean their calisthenics skills would suffer. But to me it always seems a bit weird to have such a built out tor

The problem is that "web-development" encompasses everything from a simple static website all the way to complex web applications. And because of this generic term, I see people making stupid mistakes all the time. React is great

For me I describe it as laziness vs tiredness (my English is probably not that advanced ;)). The difficultly is that in both states, you don't feel like doing anything. If someone has a quick way to distinguish between lazy and tired,

In the 2000's I wrote games on MS PocketPC. It had emulated floating point, which was painfully slow for games. Most games could do with just integers. Once I made some physics based games, I implemented fixed point indeed, and it went

Deterministic engines are very hard to pull off. I looked into it for my own engine, and decided not to. The problem is floating point calculations on different processors. Maybe in the 90's that wasn't such an issue, but good luc

I ended up with the best of both worlds (subjective of course!). I use VSCode with a Vim plugin. I get all the best keystrokes from Vim, and the GUI of VSCode. For me, going to Vim would be worse, and going to plain VSCode would be worse.

9 out of 10 for me means you know metaprogramming etc. Any answer is basically fine, as long as it's clear you know what pointers are. It's basically also a starter question to go further into memory allocation and freeing, smart
