You think those are the only confounding factors? What about tolerances so that no balls will be damaged in transit? Or is there an acceptable loss rate? How are the balls to be loaded into the trailer? Surely this is not a special ping-pon

It's not the expectation (irrelevant and "hoop jumping" as it is) but the rigid, adversarial tone. And like I said, there are numerous physical confounding factors that render your force-fed approach inadequate.

Note that ping-pong balls can be crushed or melted. Anyway, your reply establishes a weird power dynamic so if that's really how you do business, the candidate dodges a bullet by your forthrightness.

You can certainly port slow Erlang code to C, but it's not as straightforward as doing so in, say, Python or Ruby. For one, if your C code crashes, it's not the calling Erlang process that crashes, but the entire VM [1]. Second, N

The MTA has multiple tracks and express trains, that alone makes it a world apart from the DC Metro.

According to the presentation, 9% of all HTTP on FF36 (for those who didn't disable this data collection) is HTTP/2. Surely there are people here using HTTP/2 in production: How are you serving HTTP/2 traffic? The list

This is just my experience, but "YAGNI" is often shorthand for "I don't want to think about it." I'm not talking about criticisms of wasteful design/features, but somebody actually saying "YAGNI"

That sounds terrible, is Rust that unstable in practice today? I remember hearing that the language had mostly stabilized at the end of 2014, but anecdotes like yours are discouraging.

Was clipping the power cable a big problem? I've never done that with a laptop, but have found the brittle MagSafe connection to be an almost daily annoyance since it was introduced.

jQuery was far from the only popular cross-browser DOM library. We had a choice of jQuery, MooTools, YUI, Prototype, Dojo, Mochikit, and quite a few others, along with good presentation of standalone cross-browser techniques from sources li

You're right that Sizzle was the class of selector engines, and if the story ended there (with jQuery as a DOM library) then jQuery wouldn't be listed on many resumes. By publishing `jQuery.prototype' to `$.fn', pushing

Well, I've read and re-read this comment hoping to glean something useful, and all I can gather is that you find familiarity to Ruby/JavaScript programmers to be the chief selling point of a language, and that you expect Erlang

Closure Library is certainly written in a way that takes advantage of the compiler to keep compiled scripts compact. Code that makes heavy use of goog.dom could look like: goog.require('goog.dom'); var dom = goog.dom; Bu

The author and I don't agree, except that Angular is not suitable for high-performance frontends (like games). The author suggests that Angular is only suitable for prototyping and that simply using the framework is technical debt. I p

I've been using Angular on-and-off in professional settings since 2012. Angular is a framework obsessed with testability that treats usability as an afterthought. That said I've found Angular to be more than flexible enough to mee
