If a company asked me that, I'd tell them thanks but no thanks and end the interview. Ask me a few questions, have me solve your riddles, see if I'd work well with your team/company. But building an entire production ready si

We use it in the form of a daily newsletter (news site), and originally when I took up speeding up the newsletter process and a redesign I realized I had entered the 5th circle of Hell. The article is dead on about just how painful it is to

I'm actually of an opposing viewpoint about the visualization. It gets in the way of the information, why does this even need to be visualized and stylized? I know git is anything but stylish but this feels like visualization for the p
