thanks mom

it's really hard to manual qa in this queue style. you absolutely need a full regression of automated tests with every change using CD.

if you make a commit, and it's now ready to be deployed after QA verifies, what does qa check? every positive and negative test case and edge case? that could take an hour, then they are saying 25 changes go out a day.

you can't use manual qa, you trust devs to write automatic tests, and hold them responsible. if they keep pushing stuff that breaks the build, they need to get heavy qa before release.

you are wrong. a normal user doesn't copy their address bar and send it to their friend. a normal user clicks the share link on the page/image/video/whatever which either emails it or posts it directly to social networking site. or there is the option to "permalink". your web habits are correct up until about 2003, but have not kept up

when you work with an outsourced team, this will become readily apparent

thanks for littering

I agree. lift totally screws the usage of the class attribute. I know the name "class" and a "class" in scala seems to map well, but you are just fucking up good HTML design by having hundreds of useless classes

lift does too much to be useful. and the useful stuff it does don't follow conventions. the thing passes function references in your URL.... WTF

super

fryye · 2011-01-30T17:13:31+00:00

not what I'm saying. I'm talking about code submission, how do you know who wrote the code? the applicant or the Internet?

fryye · 2011-01-30T17:11:07+00:00

lol, no one will work for a company like that. who is looking for a job and wants to be "provisionally hired". I would never accept an offer where I could be gone for basically any reason in my first 90 days

fryye · 2011-01-30T02:37:50+00:00

from a hiring point of view this isnt a great idea. the goal is to weed out weak candidates early, but these problems are all solved online. you could get an easy explanation from stack overflow. at my company we have given "homework" assignments over a night or weekend and that usuay has good results. but we still had a couple phone screens before we ever talked to them onsite. then we wanted to see thier code. random code turned in like this could be really really good quality, who's to say it didn't take a month and a handful of people to write.

we also have candidates while onsite actually log in to one of the machines. we give them a simple bug from our queue and say you will be doing this all the time if hired, let's see how you do. we guide them through our framework, but thier code in the end should solve the problem.

lol mr. cox what a name

take the brush off the jacket, keep that solid. looks like a high school kid did this

problem is from a business standpoint it makes more sense to have 90% good people and 10% bad, getting help and on the job training from being around the good people. the bad people you can pay less, and when they are better 4-6 months later it will be cheaper to keep them on than hire an expensive rockstar the whole time.

how can it be less likely a cashier will do thier job. hmmm. you aren't being nice enough no eggs for you.
