Either they get the reference and say something funny in response, they don't get the reference and google it, or they ask a question like "what are you expecting from something like that?" In any case, it's a chance to

Me too. This gives a quick insight into what the applicant knows and what they are interested in. This is usually one of the three questions I require as part of an application. The other two are a technical question tailored for the posit

Why does Quebec have it’s own immigration policy? I mean, why can’t I just emigrate to Canada in BC and then move to Quebec?

Yes, this is correct. It must be handled at the legislative level and I’d say at the Federal level to be effective.

I do something similar, I ask the candidate what they do when three different people come to them with urgent needs that must be done immediately and there is no way that they can do them in the time given. The answer I’m looking for is “I

I am usually 100% behind you on your attempts to moderate, but I'm not sure I follow you here. But thank you for doing what you do! In this case it doesn't seem to be a generic political tangent, but specifically addressing what

Looks very nice, I just signed up. Ignore the people muttering about the subscription. If your tool scratches an itch, the price and how you pay is irrelevant. One thing, the email sent to verify my account got marked as spam by google.

I'm jealous. I made $700 for a two year project that started when I was 15. :) When the project started, my partner and I (that's right, the $700 was for both of us) thought that $700 was an enormous sum and that we were being ve

The problem with cars is that they are great for individuals, but terrible for society. For individuals, they greatly increase your mobility and open new possibilities. For societies, they are loud, dirty, dangerous, and require expensive r

Sure, but that means raising 10x+ since you'd really want the trust to be untouched and just have the foundation run off the interest.

More likely because google responds timely and adequately to customers all the time but nobody tweets about it or writes a medium post that gets shared. See "Dog bites man" vs. "Man bites dog"

It's still a rather aggressive take on the GDPR. The GDPR has nothing to do with taxation and would be a terrible system of taxation. GDPR is about protecting data. If it was just about taxing big US tech companies, why would they t

no. And they probably won't do it for that very reason, as they don't want to know your iCloud password. Without it what service can they provide?

Additionally, because it's not traveling with you, it's now subject to import duties unless you include proper paperwork showing that it traveled out of the country originally.

You have very strong opinions for someone who really doesn't understand import/export at all. Of course things you owned, left the country and are returning with are exempt. Import Duties apply to items purchased while outside the

I'm guessing that you two are having a communication problem as it is highly unlikely that a "senior colleague" can't understand simple logic. To be clear, I'm not saying that the problem is entirely yours, but in m

I'm totally shocked that a wacky theory proponent (complete with zany acronym!) would link an article talking about iron deficiency to promote their wacky theory that excess iron causes a psychosis like state.

No need to guess. The article states this explicitly.

Nobody read the article I guess. The delivery companies are subsidizing the costs as the battle each other.

The idea that you espouse in that California exhibits government overreach and wasteful spending is exactly what I'm talking about. California has been extremely budget constrained ever since the Prop 13 passed in 1978. They've b

This is a self reinforcing system. Public services (including law enforcement) are starved for resources by conservative (small government) politicians who can then say "see, government doesn't work, why should they get all this m

This seems to me (albeit as a probably completely unqualified person to have a real viewpoint here, as a 50ish male without children) to be much ado about nothing. Somehow, perhaps because of the pervasiveness of social media, the sense of
