I didn't see much that qualifies as a "Brain Teaser" - most of these are algorithmic questions. Knowing when do implement a depth first search != brain teaser.

Okay - reality check; a lot of programmers are bad. I'm in Austin and we have developers straight out of school at 70K+. If you're knowledgeable, have good communication skills, aren't a flake, and live in even a semi-major c

I like solving puzzles. Often that puzzle in my world is "How do we make sense of all this data for business users" or even as simple as "How do we make this faster?". Also, its well compensated. If this was a 50k/y

Companies have a LEGAL obligation to their shareholders to pursue profits, and to be fiscally responsible in that regard. Using a "real portion" of cash to attempt to do things not related to making money would result in a very la

https://weworkremotely.com/ might not be a bad option - not sure how the traffic is, but ad placement is inexpensive, and its only for remote jobs.

OPs post history puts him as a college sophomore - his pay package won't include RSUs. That being said, it really depends on the team, and the manager - just like any other big company. And no, you won't need to own your own Apple

Being a Freelancer often has more to do with your marketing and sales skills than your skills as a programmer. The question you should be asking is "Do I want to run a business?" That's what you'll be doing. You'll

Stripe is by far, in over a decade, the simplest method of online payment processing I've ever run into. You can add it to your app in a trivial amount of time, customer service is great and the documentation is clear and easy to follo

I used harvest; along with good notes about what type of work each block was. Hit a button, instant invoice. Really great product. The time tracking marked is already oversaturated with competitors - I can think of a half dozen from memory,

Its a bit deep to understand at first, but once you've been on the platform for a while, its pretty straightforward. I'm going to respectfully disagree with the "smaller set than people initially assume" -- there are hug

Its not effective vs any scraping; how do you imagine scraping works? In the most basic case, a program makes a HTTP request, gets the source of your page, and processes it via a HTML parser. In some cases, the same HTML source will be run

Almost all recruiters are paid a % of first year salary - 30% was a very common figure when recruiters contacted me to see if we wanted candidates for open positions. That being said, its not in the recruiter's best interest to try to

This article gives advice that is not only bad, but dangerous. You should never, under any circumstances store a password in a format that can be reversed. Doing so for the password to someone's primary email address borders on crimina

I've always found this theory of hiring interesting but I think it eliminates some of the best possible candidates. People who are really good at what they do don't need a 20+ hour try out to find outstanding jobs - especially not

If you lack practical experience, you should find smaller companies to apply to, rather than recruiters. Recruiters are looking to satisfy lists of buzzwords and requirements, whereas the hiring manager of a small company is just looking fo

This infographic has exactly zero reasons why a business owner would choose to use this technology. The people who hold the purse strings don't care if its popular, trending, or used by big companies. The questions that need answers are:

So you want us to submit our password and username to an unknown entity? At that point, no, its not secure, even if its FKoieoSF()$902358#f9J#90JP[V, which, incidentally, is my password.

I think the point is that it's not like Facebook; with facebook, you, the user, are the product. With app.net, the platform is the product, and you pay for it. Facebook makes decisions about its system based on maximizing its ad revenue, no
