Re:Ask HN: Tell me about how you bombed a technical interview

Google relies on writing syntactically correct code in a google doc with no autocomplete/auto indenting during their interviews. The cognitive load of this plus having to answer very difficult obscure algorithmic questions was too foreign from my normal workflow and too heavy of a cognitive load for me to be able to answer the question accurately in the time given. I hope they don't build production code this way.

it's more that obsolete concepts like var, AMD and Common.js are focused on.
These techniques are obsolete & lead to fragile code especially when blended with newer concepts like native js imports, let and const.

This is already quite dated. Most of the content is geared towards the state of JS in 2013-2015.

I think the go authors have had a reasonable balance of this when adding new features. Generics are quite useful.

This is generally done to protect battery cell health. Much like SSD memory one cell in the battery failing will ruin an otherwise fine battery.

This is a very common strategy of camera hardware manufacturers Nikon and Cannon had similar firmware crippling.

Any plans to have it generate GLSL?
