More the former. Technically they seemed quite proficient, but they proved difficult to work with and didn't end up gelling with the team very well.

It certainly did! I just didn't understand at the time not to hire employees who simply say "I'd Google it" over and over :D.

Tell that to the 1000's of people who can't implement them. I agree, its not that hard, but that's all the more reason to avoid giving attitude about the question. Answer it quickly and move on. If you can't answer it qu

I interviewed someone who gave responses akin to "I'd Google it." When presssed, he did finally give some reasonable answers. We ended up hiring him, as we'd interviewed 10 other candidates who'd failed at that poin

PageSpeed, which this is based on, uses a relative metric last I checked. I.E. If you have a 2 byte site and can remove 1 byte, you'd get ~50 points off. It's not quite that simple, but that's the basic idea.

> are non-shoplifters going to be turned into shoplifters without a checkout? One could respond that you can never truly shop lift if you follow the rules. First, you have to check in when you enter. Second, they tell you to grab and go.

I am curious. Did you really find his claim "offensive"? Or was it simply incorrect and over simplified?

I envy Shreeve’s and Matzger's groups. Not that I want to do what they're doing, but man I would love waking up to an article written about me like this. I can guarantee that their teams have a getting a huge kick out of this.

This doesn't really answer the question of why Silver is wrong. It calls out Wang as being too "tight" in his interpretation of the numbers. It then simply claims the Silver is too far in the other direction, but with no subs

The basic observation is that the reset url is sent as the referrer to any 3rd party content that gets loaded on the page. So if you have a facebook link, ads, analytics, cdn, or other random content on the page, they get to see what the re

It's not that everyone does it all the time. It only has to happen, say 1% of the time. Combine that with the number of cyclists on the road, and the thousands upon thousands of car doors opened each day, and odds are it will happen. A

Is that true? Usually developer friendly means not-carrier-locked, which has always commanded a _higher_ price tag. Meanwhile, iPhones have no cheap developer option either. When has developer equated with cheap?

I seriously doubt this engineer was operating without code review, test infrastructure, and other safety checks in place. They aren't solely responsible. If they don't have those types of checks in place, that's the fault of

Interestingly, the position of the baby teeth greatly affect the adult teeth. As it was described to me, the baby teeth are essentially placeholders or spacers that reserve room for the adult teeth. If they are out of alignment or move to f

Yes, I am the same, but there's [at least] two different types of users here. I use a password generator + manager. I never type a password, so I never mis-type a password. My father, on the other hand, hunts and pecks and I can't

Indeed. I have the same issue. I want to avoid major traffic and construction, not _all_ traffic in construction. In Boston, where I live, the side streets are often narrow, one way, and labyrinthine. A lot of times, I'd rather just dr

Right, but that seems more like fine motor skills than reflexes, no?

But I still wonder if that's not a different skill. Significant changes to the melody still come on the beat. The same can't be said to you driving down the road and the car ahead of you slams on the brakes. Talented musicians of

As a software engineer who does this - you make time for it. These days, I work out during lunch usually. I used to hit the gym on the way home in the evening. I take public transit and it was right at my stop. It's not different than

They'd still need software to control said hardware. We can assume such software would be mobile, based on what they're currently offering. Then they'd need a way to pair the phone with the controller, or otherwise get the da
