Ok, but none of what you said addresses my concerns. And sadly, this is what always happens when I press people for better interviewing techniques.

If they can't finish squat in 60 minutes are they likely to finish something in double that time? If they are, I could just ask them something that should take 30 minutes to finish and give them double that time to finish it, and just pretend like everything's fine...

Why must they state that? It's a fairly obscure edge case that they probably didn't predict. There aren't going to be guidelines for every conceivable possibility of how a cluster of Apple developer accounts can be (mis)used.

> Because they already told him they would not when they thought there was nothing in question.

Your claim is that if Apple even talks to the developer, then there must be no wrongdoing. I disagree with that in this case and from personal experience. Apple's developer relations people are generally able to understand and sympathise with extraordinary circumstances. Such as they did in this case.

But it was devided into smaller areas and ultimately 4-work-place-cubicles by about 1.2 m tall noise reducing movable walls. Also, they had meeting rooms and facilities to devide the huge floor.

Noise and distraction was quite effectivly reduced but communication was supported.

I've run into quality issues with Unicomp recently (my last one only lasted 18 months). I'm now using a keyboard with Cherry Greens (CODE 104 key), and it's pretty darn close, but not the same (plus a bit quieter, which my wife likes).

Regardless of which is better, feeling familiar is nice. Those of my age who grew up using Apples are likely to prefer the Matias switches; I grew up with an IBM keyboard, and the Cherry Green is the closest I can find that isn't made by Unicomp.

That the same photo is used often is a data point. Thinking everything is about a woman's appearance in a photo ignores a whole class of information.

What would you propose the software do in a scenario where it does have to decide?

I do agree with you, but I'm not certain you can avoid making a decision when your software will inevitably be provided a scenario where it has to do something, but no option is good.

All of that said I would be surprised if we expect our cars to swerve and dart around the road to avoid obstacles, I figured it was going to be down to slaming on the brakes in a fraction of a second in most cases. As human drivers, swerving makes things significantly more dangerous in most cases.

> Health benefits are (controversially) often like this.

To elaborate, in the US, money spent on employer-provided health insurance is not taxed, but those who pay health insurance premiums out-of-pocket must pay with after-tax dollars.

This is an improvement over the pre-ACA state of affairs in which many (perhaps most) individuals would not be able to buy insurance at all, but still it's a pretty bad deal for anyone who doesn't work for a big company.

> You don't have to understand it.

I think this is the main point I and the other commenters are trying to explain. You do have to understand it. Imagine someone coming and telling you your software job is better done by overseas contractors - they're less efficient and cheaper so you naturally must be overpaid.

Except that ignores the many ways in which your training might make your higher cost worthwhile.

> Why are we optimizing for the very few to reduce medical care for the masses?

Are you implying there's a concerted effort to deny care? With the proliferation of nurse practitioners and physicians assistants, we're broadening the range of people who can take care of our population. Overseas, groups like Partners in Health are training community members to offer care in order to fill in gaps in health care availability.

Sorry to take this to its extreme, but I think you're proposing the idea of the marketplace finding the optimum amount of training for caregivers. As a point of opinion, this kind of system would be far more disadvantageous for society's less powerful than what we have now.

Here's a sample charge from the police press release [0]

Preparation for terrorism. Between 31 December 2015 and 22 September 2016 Samata Ullah, with the intention of assisting another or others to commit acts of terrorism, engaged in conduct in preparation for giving effect to his intention namely, by researching an encryption programme, developing an encrypted version of his blog site and publishing the instructions around the use of programme on his blog site. Contrary to section 5 Terrorism Act 2006 [1].

Here's the Act [1] :

A person commits an offence if, with the intention of—
(a)committing acts of terrorism, or
(b)assisting another to commit such acts,
he engages in any conduct in preparation for giving effect to his intention.

In this case encryption is the conduct. It is not the conduct which gives rise to the offence, it's the intent. The actual nature of the conduct is legally irrelevant. He could just as easily have been charged with the same offence for literally any conduct if the intent was to assist in terrorism. Procuring vehicles, preparing lunch, giving a pedicure.

Lawyer in TFA seems to indicate that the met went on some kind of fishing expedition in the accused's browsing history, but a read through the linked press release [0] tells a different story :

Count 1: Membership of a proscribed organisation. On or before 22 September 2016 Samata Ullah belonged or professed to belong to a proscribed organisation namely ISIS (Daesh). Contrary to section 11 Terrorism Act 2000.

Count 2: Terrorist Training. Between 31 December 2015 and 22 September 2016 Samata Ullah provided instruction or training in the use of encryption programmes, and at the time he provided the instruction or training, he knew that a person receiving it intended to use the skills in which he is being instructed or trained for or in connection with the commission or preparation of acts of terrorism or for assisting the commission or preparation by others of such acts.

Count 4: Directing terrorism. Between 1 December 2015 and 22 September 2016 Samata Ullah directed the activities of an organisation which is concerned in the commission of acts of terrorism. Contrary to section 56 Terrorism Act 2000.

I would have thought those - if sufficiently evidenced - would be enough to establish intent [2], which is what kicks in Section 5.

So he wasn't charged 'because encryption' he was charged 'because terrorism'.

Please note that I'm not making (here) any argument for or against S5, just pointing out that the reporting of this case is misleading as to the legal reasoning.

FizzBuzz itself is not more important than actual experience.

What happens is in some cases people take it too far.

The point of FizzBuzz is a sanity check.

It's like asking a dental surgeon "How many teeth do humans have?".

If they hesitate before answering you don't want them performing surgery on you.

But I guess sometimes people bump the difficulty up step by step until it loses that ability.

As in, a really simple dumb question like FizzBuzz is more valuable because if they fail to do it that's a strong signal that you can depend on.

Sometimes people get greedy and make it more difficult so it loses its value.

Li-ion is a widely deployed technology that isn't very good. Like coal.

This battery chemistry is inherently fragile. Drive a nail through a Li-ion battery and it will explode. Tesla had to put a titanium plate under their battery after some fires from punctures by road debris. If a Li-ion battery overheats, it will go into thermal runaway and increase its temperature until it catches fire. Overcharging alone is sufficient to do this. It takes about six safety devices to make a Li-ion battery reasonably safe. Leave some of them out, and you get the hoverboard debacle.

There are safer battery chemistries, such as LiFePO4, but you give up about 14% energy density.
Just want to share an anecdote of a 500 people company that I'm based in. The company surprisingly nailed all the points that are made by the OP. And the positive effect of having such a weekly Friday All Hands is apparent. This initiative has only been implemented a month ago, and before that there was a sense of low morale in the team as they were in the dark as to the direction of the company and perhaps their work lacked recognition. However, after the implementation of the All Hands, the teams got invigorated by well-deserved recognition from the leaders and in front of everyone. And in general everyone became clearer of the company's mission and key focus through presentations and Q&A. If there are musically inclined folks in the company, it definitely helps to lift the spirit of the team singing along with songs they are playing at the end of it.
If you are a leader of a company considering having All Hands, rolling it out as described in the article could set your team in the right path.

Heroku is something you need to learn, and doesn't follow standard configurations. A Django install on Heroku is completely different from a regular Django install.

Your own server or shared hosting is the easiest.
