If you don't mind me asking, what kind of programming tasks were they asked to solve?

Pro tip: Love is hard to find, so fuck the haters if you find it at the workplace. There is more to life than keeping your job.

According the the story we have so far, he should have actually kept his wife in line but failed to do so. You only cringe because you read too much into what he said.

Well, I actually used the word for people who are being or could be actively forced to stop volunteering, so I think the word was entirely appropriate in that context. I understand that people perhaps feel trapped or exploited in a very lim

How are we to define exploitation anyway? Because to involve government is a pretty big deal. Government operates with violence or the promise of violence if you don't comply, and that is a very big deal in my opinion. Of course, if so

It's tough, I know. But it's no different from other artsy endeavours. People bust their ass for free playing music, and very few of them actually make a living. It may sound harsh, but it's not a human right to make a living

Are you sure that robbing is the word you are looking for? Talk about entitlement. I guess I'm robbing the taxi businesses by picking up my wife from the airport too.

So we should rob these people of one of the ways in which they can gain actual experience and make themselves salaried employees? The government should IMNSHO only concern themselves with one thing: is it consensual or not? If it is, they s

From the top of my head, from someone who currently seeks work as a full stack (Rails) developer: I would ask if you by "method" mean function defined on an object. If so, this refers to the method's object. If not, this can

Commandment one, two, six, as well as number ten (when translated to the current context) is also solid advice.

I would never take funding from friends or family. Hard rule. More aspiring entrepreneurs should listen to Ten Crack Commandments by Notorious B.I.G. at least once.

Yes I am. It is a private company, and they can do whatever they damn well please. This is just standard TOS language.

I know you are probably only speaking for yourself, but smokeyj is dead-on as far as I am concerned.

Look up vitamin K2 as well. There's a growing body of evidence suggesting that K is crucial, and especially when supplementing with D, and that most of us don't get enough in our daily diet. I currently take MK-7 alongside my dail

As someone who might move there, I would appreciate to hear about your experiences. The cost of living in SF already worries me.

Actually, last laugh goes to them as they make more money and enjoy more success than you ever will. They also have the balls to discontinue a product that they for whatever reason find out is not worth their time. Go home, troll.

I'm curious, which ADHD medication and generic did you use? I'm on Ritalin myself.

Thank you for an informative response! I'm gonna keep this in mind when I start applying for jobs. Currently I spend evenings and weekends programming and learning on my own.

I'm curious about GitHub and the code you review. Like many, I can hate my own code and sometimes feel that it will be used against me in a hiring process. So I guess what I'm asking is how much does it count against a potential hire that t

I am among those who want to work as a Rails developer eventually, and I would be very much interested in hearing your thoughts about what you are looking for in hires. Things like what applicants lack the most, what you look for the most,
