Your job sounds more like Engineering. Embedded?

When your business model revolves around marketing and aesthetics, you need to put the extra effort. You can tell Apple's target demographic isn't enterprise markets at every turn.

Hmm wondering if I could make a bot to fake/overwhelm a system like this. Like be a rediculous demographic that doesn't exist. Bot detection is sooooooooo strong though. Especially if someone wants to stop you.

The issue is that you get less choice and the only winners are large corporations who can handle it. They know the regulations are tough, so they can corner the market and up charge accordingly. (Big) Profits are not made in competitive mar

This _opinion_ can be countered with a single ancedote- I got a job because of my side projects and would be unemployed if I didn't work on side projects. Now, who's opinion is correct?

There should be a major distinction between programmers and Engineers. As an engineer that made the transition to programming, many interviews I was told Engineering isn't programming. I had to take an entry level programming job (and

Do you hate grandma's who want their own website? She makes delicious Cake and has a secret you won't find because it uses http that their grandson set up 5 years ago. Or how about the single mom of 5 trying to sell dresses, guess

Irrelevant content that is "accessible" is worse than relevant content that's only accessable by 99.9% of the population.

The SEO junk has ruined Google. By having rules that ensure websites are perfectly accessable and use https and perfectly structured HTML has lead to a corporate takeover of the first page. The average programmer doesn't have time to l

Holy crap I've been saying this about Bitcoin (along with it's voting and currency mechanisms) are useful. But I've been saying that it could be used for races or world records or predictions. Neat to see someone actually wan

I can't tell if you are dismissing this, but as an FYI trig is used in Engineering.

Someone correct me if I'm wrong because it's been years since my EE class. Basic math ends at division. Heck if you learn how math works on computers, it feels like a number trick. Those are reliable. The issue comes when you need

Ahh you are talking about job interviews, I'm talking about 200 or 300 level college classes. Both of my programming interviews had some tech questions but no white board coding. That said neither were exactly entry level.

That's what you consider basic programming? I was going to make sure they understood loops and maybe classes/methods. You can ask them data questions without needing to code on the spot. Which one of us is terrible at coming up wi

I don't think a coding interview can figure out if you can solve a complex business problem. It will show you if someone knows basic programming.

Hard disagree here. It's like saying an electrical engineer doesn't need to know how to use a multimeter until after college. Or a chem Engineer isn't responsible for knowing how to titrate something. Programming is a tool an

Why go for a esp32 if you can use i2c for reading many values and driving relays? Serious, because I am building a complex product and trying to keep costs down. Or are you referring to hobbyists?

GPS emits an EMF, should be easy catch if you are trying. Also, I wonder if you can catch it with batteries. Does amazon make the seller list the type of battery in their product?

The fact that there is somehow a notable size of computer science grads that don't know how to program is the most major red flag. Are students cheating? Is curriculum group based? Is the content not hard enough? If people need to do c

Depends, if you are an immigrant that wants to escape a dictatorship, this makes it much less appealing to hire that worker from that country. And corporations are paying more money for an employee. The winners are the current workers and w

You are locked in, they genuinely don't care about your opinions. Getting government contracts and keeping a market open is vastly more important. Plus the whole privacy thing is just marketing, they have worked with the US government
