It was not an entry level. There was no designation to the role actually. But what does that question mean anyway? Say I've been working in java stack for 10 years but for whatever reason I want to move to js/frontend. What else i

I've already said way more than I should considering I need to stay in this business for a good few more years. Communication was fine if that's what you're asking.

Great to hear that. I went through that hell (of course fell into the 80%) a few moths ago. Needless to say I was in total awe by the whole process. Awe as in, what the heck did I waste whole weeks for? How can the -seemingly best IT compan

It's more that this is stuff you haven't used in years (because people don't write heapshort algorithms for a living) but you have been practicing and learning a ton of others (adding value to your company) that simply get ec

It is strongly advised that if you get a question you've already practiced then you should tell your interviewers. At least that's the supposed code of conduct. So, what you're suggesting is that the code of conduct is just w

There is some value to it, yes. But what I've experienced so far is that whiteboard > individual project + culture + experience + whatever else. Thus my hunch that they are not there to show something more on top of other things but

First of all, kudos for your nickname. A lot of what makes the society ticks -especially any society deeply rooted in materialism like ours today- is very hard to justify even when you are in a just-sane state of mind. See "bullshit jo

I'm being very specific in what has gone wrong and it has nothing to do with the climate. Hitting me with a ton of links that have nothing to do with my main argument is irrelevant. Downvoting also does nothing more than proving my poi

I'll probably get downvoted to the ground but somebody needs to say it. The problem is not with climate change deniers. Most people agree that climate change is happening. That's hard to deny when it's all around you. The mi

Brilliant point of view. I too, am slowly coming to the realization that a mixed mode of paradigms is actually better and _simpler_ to attack composite problems. Attacking everything with code (OOP gravitates to that approach IMO) has its s
