Velocity, cross-functional, "being Agile" "Scalable" as a catch-all synonym for "good" Come to think of it: anything to do with Agile DevOps

Because for a lot of degrees the answer is basically nothing. Not in any meaningful, reality-based sense. If the place is legitimately accredited, there are always some significant requirements well beyond the description of "basi

Right -- the RTO debate is also partially about perceived norms and "Everybody knows this". But only partially; let's say about 30 percent. Neckties however -- are 100 percent in that category.

Yes, talent and presumably investment. Not that what's said on the Glassdoor has anything to do with anything. I've seen enough cases of glaring (epic) discrepancies between what's said on Glassdoor about a certain company,

A hollow analogy, unfortunately. Unlike neckties (which are entirely about appearance and perceived norms) -- there are very considerable intrinsic benefits to having people onsite. They just don't outweigh the very considerable negat

If you'd prefer a more Spock-like explanation: It's definitely not an interesting or useful question (and if you think that it only appeals to creative/playful/cooperative types, you're very mistaken). And for that

The exploding offers I love the most -- are the ones that come after a ridiculously long process, itself saddled with weeks of radio silence and surprise extra rounds. Topped with handy-wavy descriptions of benefits, and essentially no room

It makes for an awkward situation Well, yeah. These kinds of questions are indeed extremely useful: for demonstrating quickly and plainly just how much a self-impressed asshole the interviewer is. And, implicitly, how asshole-enchanted

Agreed on Kissinger and Mattis. I need more substantiation in regard to Shultz (beyond his delusional policy supports, here and there).

I like how AI is showing us more clearly that everything is essentially a derivative work. I think you have a ways to go with proving that assertion.

Show me how it is completely different from what humans do. Because nearly everything it generates ranges from, at best, trite and hackneyed (nearly all of its writing) to utterly meritless drivel (literally every AI-generated music sampl

As does forced WFH for some people (minus the climate aspects). Or unskillfully conducted WFH (even when everyone agrees in principle). I think it's pretty clear that this is a topic that people have organic, gut-level differences of
