It does, TypeScript, and I'd argue it's a better type system than Java

Dude wtf, fuck that shit. I'd rather be unemployed than putting up with that shit

It's because it's terse with quite a low amount of mnemonics (a meaningful feature is only 1-2 characters, there's no padding for a spacial understanding of hierarchies, etc.., compared to your host language), and even though it comes in very handy, most developers aren't spending a large amount of time writing them in your average project.

They should just make touch bar be a touchable dock and be done with it. At least the thing will be somewhat useful by recovering some screen space.

Jesus this reads like it's from some super corrupt 3rd country, not the US.

Is it possible to work on an online side project that generates profit, whilst working on E3/H1B visa?

Same with me, never had any interviewer actually give me an actual real rebuttal, other than "but it scales!!".

I love software, but I really get tired of the blind cargo-cult culture of most of the industry.

Apart from the deaths, if a permanent universal flu vaccine was invented it would save the USA over 10 billion annually, forever. A good ROI.

Audible, Podcasts, Spotify, Youtube, Netflix etc. there's a lot of things to keep you entertained while you're on the bike.

Adobe really screwed up letting this die, now they've only realized it was a mistake, and released XD which is so far inferior to Fireworks

I've spoken to an H1B lawyer about this, You can actually monetize your online work, just as long as the freelance company is not American. You can start up a limited company in your home country and get paid into a bank account there.

Not in this case. The only reason Tesla is known is solely because of engineering and design.

Same for me, usually fixed with a cappuccino or a caffeine tablet though

Why the condescending quotes? Are you somehow above a programming language?

Wow what a bunch of bullshit

Whiteboarding, Programming and Comp Sci Trivia is pretty rampant...

With interviews, you are essentially trying to predict the job performance of a candidate when they are at your company, so why not make it as close to that as possible?

With face-to-face tell them to bring their laptop or you can provide one, then explain a real actual hard problem you've solved or one of your colleagues has, that took roughly 2 hours, leave the room and let them try and solve it on their own accord without any pressure of people staring at them whilst coding. Come back and ask them to explain their solution and quiz them on different parts.

This has been by far the best test I've given that predicted real on job performance.
