Would you mind elaborating on the good reasons for MITM your company web traffic? I'm not being facetious, genuinely curious.

Life long Pratchett fan. Only thing comes to mind is a quote that I don't know who to credit for "Don't cry because it's over, smile because it happened" :/

I don't know how useful this information is, because it's purely my opinion.. but, besides 'experience' and 'open mind' that are two pretty obvious ones, there are a few things I always look for and probably ju

My job relies on me trying to establish the character of people in a quite limited time as well, and I can totally vouch for this. Human beings are notorious for overestimating their ability to 'judge character'. Myself included.

I'm sorry if I misunderstood this article.. but they took their $70k of profit and donated it to wikimedia, then took all profit from the 'gift' idea and bought an island. So these dudes essentially give away the vast majorit

Admittedly, I've never been big in C#, but I'm AMAZED by how much repetition string comparison there is. IE: Environment.GetResourceString("ArgumentOutOfRange_Index") The string there is in multiple areas of that class,

This is not a accusing comment, but more of a request for more information: "Passphrases shorter than 20 characters are usually considered weak if they only consist of lower case Latin characters." This goes against the concept of

I have long questioned the validity of middleware (for the lack of better terms, please don't be pedantic) to create native applications. I get it, HTML can replicate performance of native apps to a certain extent now, but it's al

Second round interviews, after having passed a code test as well, I do exclusively with the team in question all present. It's less of an interview and more of a meet and greet, and we spend 30 minutes talking about anything under the

Seems you've had some bad runs. I can pretty much debunk 1 and 3 personally. Good companies and people take hiring very seriously.

"Not a fit" is another way of saying "We don't like you" in a strange way. I stay far away from those sweeping personality statements personally.

I've never had any issues in years and years. I guess as long as you're being positive about it, and try to reinforce the shortcomings versus the positives it ends up being a good conversation. Always do it over the phone, email d

I've done a LOT of interviewing, recruiting and ultimately a lot of saying "no" to people. Over the years I've landed on a series of personal rules on how to do just that. 1. Always explain rationale around the No, to he

Bold or irresponsible move? Not sure. Given the incredibly low profit margin of most non-iphone smartphones on the market today (I think the average samsung profit margin on a phone is $11) I can't help but wonder what the real source

Great post. I think what you're referring to is Buckminster Fuller's 'Knowledge Doubling Curve'. I get a sense from your post that we're most likely roughly the same age and grew up in very similar circumstances. If

The first Miyazaki film I watched was Spirited away. The moment I saw it I became a life long fan of his work. I've been to the museum in Mitaka twice, seen all his movies and despite pushing 35, I'm just as amazed and gleeful wat

When investing (time) into something like this I always try to work out how the business is going to be sustained. Like many of us, I've been burnt badly before. I'd genuinely like more businesses like this to be up front with com
