@PeterVandivier @galo2099 Simple belief, with some reasonable basic proof that those were the actual dates the code was last changed. 🤷♀️

@PeterVandivier @galo2099 I did say (valid) for a reason 😉

@sankara the main thing to worry about is SMS. If they force you to have a backup phone number and use SMS, that's bad. Most of the top-tier sites do not require SMS.

@jhbrown94 @brooklynDev remotely over audio or real time chat would be fine. But real time is important because you do need to know if they can identify the steering wheel and gas pedal on the truck, before being hired to drive the truck..

@codinghorror
@donal_tweets @brooklynDev what I like about fizzbuzz is it hones in on two very, very basic concepts: looping and if-then. You are hiring a truck driver and asking the truck driver to point out where the wheel and gas pedal are as part of the interview. That's all!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@paulg bright future for this one 💡

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@jhbrown94 @brooklynDev one difference, though, this isn't an actual programming problem of any complexity whatsoever -- it's more akin to applying for a job where you drive a truck and asking "can you show me where the gas pedal is?" in the interview.

@OneCricketeer @lizardbill oh yeah the TV series was much more enjoyable, honestly!

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
@lizardbill The most recent one has a few worthwhile fan service moments, and doesn't take itself too seriously. It's meh but watchable.

@textfiles or extend it to tech medium-sized-co. I'm genuinely curious what your answer would be.

@paulg it's remarkable how true this is. It's worthy of a "{someone's} law" definition.

@derekkraan funnily enough, I think this would actually work?

Jeff Atwood
@codinghorror
it is really surprising that the Pi Zero doesn't offer a deep sleep mode of some kind.. it gets to ~80mA at idle which is reasonable but if it could get down to ~10mA that would be fantastic. Here's my math so far.. https://t.co/huSZCE1nyC
