If asking about a bubble sort during an interview I'm giving, I'd much prefer to hear questions come back about sorting bubbles rather than some person who's memorized popular algorithms and blindly gives me back some recreat

Yea, I use n as well. Seems to do its job and stay out of my way.

Use the (1) best tools to solve the problem that (2) you know best (3) if your goal is to create a working solution as fast as possible. For web apps, I moved from .NET MVC + jQuery over to .NET Core (or sometimes nodejs) for the backend an

Thanks for posting this, and I'm already ready and waiting for Part II.

For me, it's either postgres or mysql for the DB, .NET Core for the website and/or API (although I'll use nodejs+express for this as well sometimes), and for the client: vue, bootstrap, html or pug, and maybe a little jQuery

I can't agree more. If you post your new shiny Auto-Resume-Confabulator-9000 on GitHub or anywhere else...your first text below that name better be what it is and what it can do for me.

I did a code review a while back with a new Web/Software Engineer II hire (I was not involved in the interview process) and noticed they were doing an HTTP GET request when they should have been doing a POST (attempting to change some

Whenever Masters of Doom is mentioned, my ears perk up. I've read it four times. Again, definitely worth the read.

As Yelp finishes flushing itself down the toilet, I wonder what opportunities can open up for similar services that actually provide value?

I'm using a 2015 Macbook Air + vscode. Builds are fast, easy to debug code, even spinning up a local webserver to test my .NET MVC web app goes fast enough.

Thanks for sharing that. Powerful stuff.

I agree. Make time for the gym. Eat less crap food, and get consistent sleep.

After having read E-Myth Revisited, I'm revamping how I work "in" versus "on" my business. I'm documenting the various activities and roles I fill, and preparing to hire help where I feel someone else could fi

Excellent breakdown. I especially liked #4.

I second this comment. I own Masters of Doom, and have read it 4 times. I've never read any other book more than once.

It's "stories" like these I would read as a kid very early 80's, probably in Popular Mechanics magazines or similar. Depicted in these magazine articles and artist renditions: in the future (certainly by the 2020s!), we

Wow, this reminds me of the days in the late 90's to early 2000's where you would make a Windows downloadable application, and submit it to the hundreds of near identical software sites.

The Bard's Tale - I had that for my Commodore 64 back in the day. Absolutely loved that game. I'm pretty sure I would mourn the loss when members of my party died.

Wrong. You will have signed an Intellectual Property Assignment Agreement for anything like you mention to be enforceable. My advice: if you want to build something on the side and are presented with a legal doc like I mentioned above...

Not a lawyer, but this looks like an obvious Trademark name dilution scenario. Facebook, change that Sonar name.

Agree! I bought that book (Cracking the Coding Interview) just to see what the fuss was about it. That thing is massive, dense, and has enough sample problems to keep a person busy for hundreds of hours... Those hundreds of hours are way b

Excellent and concise explanation. Keep driving schema and UI design until they converge.
