    do you wear suit/tie if you are going to job interview for software developer?

    I'm a software engineer and I recently switched up from wearing nice clothes to interview to wearing whatever I wear normally. Since then I've been 4 for 4 for getting an offer and I think there are two reasons that the clothes make a difference. 1) I am more comfortable wearing jeans and a...

    Leaving a software company after 3 months?

    I got an offer from Google 3 months after starting my current job ... I turned it down. The valley is small and you're going to end up working with the same people for the rest of your career. The managers @ Google told me that if I felt that way ... just apply in a year. So my general rule...

    Sick of JL Gatsby? You don't have to see his posts anymore with this script I wrote.

    I made the changes to only filter if the Author column contains JLGatsby .. unfortunately I have no place to post it. So although formatting will suck .... I'll post it here. Apologies, this is really the first time I've had to program javascript. function removeUsersf(){ var tds =...

    Acura TSX within my means to purchase?

    Strange ... 24 months ago I was 23, made 65 grand/year & bought a TSX. The only thing I regret was that I actually had enough to buy a nicer car (although I really do love my TSX). Why? Because when you're 23/old & making that much it means that you're probably pretty smart/good at what you...

    Where to go for vacation?

    Weird ... I just went to Costa Rica last year, am leaving for India in a month and am planning on doing a weeklong liveaboard in Belize at the end of the year. Out of all of them, I'd say Costa Rica. 10 weeks really isn't enough time to visit India in any real way and if you're gonna spend the...

    Central Vacuum System (for your house)

    Parents have had one for 20 years. I can't imagine cleaning their house w/o it. If your house is big enough to warrant it, its necessary imho. We have 3 hoses, all on different floors. So if you're in the kitchen and need to clean something up, you just grab the hose in the pantry. Secondly...

    I interviewed at Google, here are the GOOGLE INTERVIEW QUESTIONS!

    So I had an interview @ google a few months ago. I had a couple of the questions mentioned but the one in particular I haven't seen the "correct" (as given to me) answer for was this. It helped, because they gave it to me as a 2 part question. 1) Determine the median of a set of N numbers...

    Newsweek releases Top 1000 high schools in the nation.

    My high school had a ** next to it (Troy #46) which means that it only gave IB scores. Now I attended 8 years ago so much might have changed, but I'm pretty sure that there were less students enrolled in IB than those who took AP (with good cause, AP tests are *much* easier than IB tests)...

    What should my salary be like..

    I used to work for Motorola in the Silicon Valley area ... If you're as good as you say you are you can probably max-out around 120k a year. Realistically expect around 100-110.

    Engineers: Do you use the notation log for natural log or log base 10.

    Actually (and i'd suspect that most CS people would agree with me) log(x) == log base 2 of X.

    Just had my hand on an un-announced Motorola phone product...

    The SLVR was announced a while ago ... in any case there are a lot more cool RAZR like phones in the pipeline (I worked for motorola up until 3 months ago. We had 'unannounced' phones sometimes a year before they shipped).

    The Comp Sci Degree

    Anyone who is insisting that there is no future in software engineering is either not looking, or is not qualified. My GROUP at the company I work for is trying to hire an engineer a day. We can't find them. My last company is trying to hire everyone (btw, it's nice having a guaranteed...

    Working p/t while you have a full-time job

    So out of curiousity (not necessity) I think I might look for a part-time (contract) work. I'm a software-engineer working for a fairly well-known bay-area (california) company and I'm not sure if it's allowed or not. Anyone here know the legality of this situation? The jobs I'd be working...

    What is the hardest programming language to learn?

    C++ with STL. Often times I find myself randomly inserting & and * rather than trying to decipher the incredibly verbose error messages.

    Can you try out a new job?

    Say that you get a new job offer and you're not 100% sure if you should take it. Can you take a vacation from your current job and start the other one? Then two weeks into it ... decide if you want to take it. If you want to take it take a two week leave of absence from your new job, go back...

    Engineers in non-engineering positions, higher pay? (Consulting, Finance, Management, Patent Law, etc)

    As a software-engineer who is thorougly satisifed with his job/salary right now I have to speak up. I interened @ one firm (strangely enough at a defense company doing web-dev) and I hated it so much I pretty much dropped out of school for a year trying to figure out what else to do. After...

    When I was 22 me and my sisters were contemplating buying my dad a new car. We were looking at the CLK320s ... I went to a mercedes dealerships and they had no problem letting me test drive the car and talk numbers for a bit. We ended up not buying the car but I can't believe the guy treated...

    Asking for a raise!

    I successfully negotiated 20 percent raise this last year (taking me from slightly below average to way-above average for my experience). What I did was make a list of all the things (major) that I had done in the last year. I then printed out the expectations of what the company expected of a...

    how many of you listen to foreign music?

    The admin at my work is a chinese woman (mid 30s) who grew up in mexico city. So ... she is constantly listening to spanish music. It's always a little strange to see a chinese person listening to spanish music. Oh yeah, I listen to tons of Hindi Film Music.

    Wolverine vs Batman

    This is a no-brainer. They've already solved this one for us. Since Superman > Wolverine (fairly obvious) and Batman > Superman (he's beaten him before) ..... use the transitive property.

    'Business casual' attire shafts men in the options department

    Where I work (software engineer) we can wear almost anything ... last year the management got a little miffed cuz one of our guys would walk around with his sandals off (which I admit is a little weird) but otherwise ... shorts, ripped jeans, anything goes.

    anyone here recently buy an Acura TSX?

    I bought a 2005 in November and love it. The outside styling is nothing incredible (IMHO) but the interior of that car is absolutely beautiful. Car drives incredibly well .. handles better than a TL. I got the navi (get lost pretty easily) and use it daily. I ended up paying 30,000 OTD ...

    anybody own a 1993 Acura Legend L Coupe? Opinions?

    Agreed ... Our 91 Acura Legend made it to 220 thousand ... in the end it was really a combination of a bunch of minor things that made us decide to donate it (Battery was dying ... even with newer ones, paint was going, and the car just needed a rest.) I loved that car though ....

    Is there anywhere in california that isn't really expensive to live?

    How much is reasonable for you ... i live in Sunnyvale (near San Jose) and I pay 850 a month. YOu could probably live in SF for around that much (if you get a roomate ... check craigslist). Or you could live in berkeley for around 6-700 a month. If i was still in college I'd want to live in...
