This. Some companies proceed directly to the "build us something" or "take a quiz" portion of the interview process. I always insist on a phone interview (preferably with the hiring manager) before doing anything else. 5

You need to think broader. Hollywood is starved for ideas. How do you think 50 shades of grey became a movie?

Looking at their crime rate, I would have to argue that it's an exceptionally exciting place to live, though not in a good way.

Keep in mind that Craigslist may not be the best way to find an apartment. From what I've seen, smaller cities don't tend to use online services for things like apartment hunting. Things are still done the old way: word of mouth,

The problem is that there is no reliable metric with which to measure talent. There is no interview process at the moment that currently does this accurately.

Is it? It solves the problem of somebody lying on their resume. It's probably not that much more expensive than chewing through a dozen candidates over the course of a year without finding a single suitable match.

That's the beauty of science: it doesn't matter what it looks like. It only matters what it is. I'd learn how to critically read a scientific study paper, if you don't know how already. You're just begging to be lie

Everything can be easily faked. So what? Screenshots have the benefit of being easy to capture, store and share. Websites are very unreliable in this regard. They can be edited on the fly, are hard to store and are even easier to fake. Any

It depends. I've been looking a lot into this lately. There is still a middle market for video games. It's more difficult than it used to be to get noticed in that space, but it's far from impossible. Here's a GDC video

This is what tax attorneys are for. I know they're a lot more expensive than "nothing" but a good one is worth their weight in gold. Especially when it comes to crossing jurisdictions (US states or countries).

Where do you live? Not the US, surely. I don't recognize the America you're describing at all. Christianity is probably one of the most tolerant religions on the planet. Christians regularly turn the other cheek and love to "

You have no idea what you're talking about. Why did Christianity gain acceptance in the first place? People believe in Christianity not out of fear, but out of hope. Atheism doesn't provide any hope, comfort or love. Just the brut

Atheists aren't persecuted. They aren't being executed for their beliefs. Christians still are, though, in China, Africa and the Middle East.

Maybe it's because Americans like to be alive and atheists have an alarming tendency to kill themselves. I don't know why, but humans are hard wired for religion. http://ajp.psychiatryonline.org/doi/full/
