Confidence and practice are huge factors. For the latter I can't recommend leetcode enough, it has problems exactly (like those) from interviews, and a lot of them. For confidence I recommend interviewing first at companies you're

I stressed the fact that I had this interview 4 days ago – I'm 100% I got the same questions. My guess is it's because they are really just to give candidates an impression of what the actual interview is going to be like – this i

As many people here have already commented, these are some screening questions asked in the first informal chat with a recruiter. I got the same questions this week, but they were presented as a warmup, which I now realise might have been d

Well I had the first call with a recruiter this Monday about a Google SRE-TPM role, and I got the exact same questions – granted, presented as a warm up.

I'd normally just use a shortcut to search. I'm used to the `/` key for search (I notice Gmail uses it), but for Github the shortcut is `s`. One that I use a lot for Github is `t` to search for files in a repository. https:&

For a simple solution, also see Rancher. I've used them about 2 years ago and even then it was a very useful and stable tool. http://rancher.com/

Slightly off topic, my wife just sent me this link after a friend mentioned today how Bayer had links to the Nazis. The last paragraph about IBM is particularly funny . http://www.11points.com/News-Politics/11_Companie

Now BMW offers Apple CarPlay, might be a reason to buy the upgraded screen. Anyway it's ridiculously expensive for what it is, but it gives them space to negotiate and/or make a profit.

It'd be interesting to correlate not just credentials to interview performance, but credentials, interview performance, and actual job performance. There is however the challenge that for the third aspect you can only assess the peop

I watched a lot of AoE2 on YouTube and Twitch about 6 months ago. It's really fun to watch on the background while doing idle work, and learn the meta and various races. I admit I haven't played the actual game since it was releas

Your quote is taken a bit out of context, but still – I already didn't like Peter Thiel, this further reinforces my impression of him being a scummy, shady character.

Holy shit. I'm quite a cynical person, but this deserves the "restored my faith in humanity" trope. Mad respect for both JetBrains and the researcher. $50k is nothing to sneer at.
