I've often wished software dev interviews were as simple as passing a test I took on my own time and didn't have to share the results until I passed.

Why is it the managers that have to figure it out rather than individual employees figuring out for themselves what makes the most sense? To be fair it the individual, their team and manager should know when working remotely is and isn't wo

the that's how "business is practiced" argument and "competition is dirty and messy" doesn't mean that's the way it has to be or that its the best way. What's appalling is the fact that people in power are attempting to take power away from

Personally, I don't really get this type of interview. For one it sounds like they've pretty much standardized it for all developers with little insight into how a new candidate might fit into an existing team best. Also, it simply does no

Sure but that's kind of irrelevant since by that logic everyone is a parasite by force and not by choice.

Why would the largest consumer (US) purchase drugs from the drug cartels if it were legal in the US and could be sold at every 7-11? The drug cartels would lose a lot of the revenue which makes them powerful.

Interesting that they point out a 9-6 hour work day the other 4 days. If you believe in being flexible and not forcing employees to work so much then why enforce 9-6 on the other 4 days?

The first person they mention left an energy company to focus on making a service that helps businesses manage their mobile applications. I don't know, this doesn't excite me. I would be more interested if the people with the resources foc

I'm curious. What backs up the idea that the average number of children per individual will be 2 regardless of reproductive lifespan? It seems that I've seen a somewhat(?) common pattern among people who have young families and get divorce

Elevators should be able to see with a camera a percentage of the floor that is visible from the ceiling. Using this percentage (in addition to or just by weight), the elevator should be able to determine whether the elevator is full. When

When I worked for HP, they were constantly trying to shut down buildings or do things which made the office spaces less desirable to employees to save money. It's good to see Apple making things better.

The tone is likely a reaction to the pressure that has been placed for so long on people to work more. Forget the amount of pressure bosses place on their people to work more. Colleagues, friends, and relatives all do the same. When they

I don't really know what I'm talking about but I'm not sure this type of card game translates well online. In my opinion, the site design is a problem. The problem I'm seeing is that there's nothing making me want to learn how to play a ne
