We do a similar thing at our office. Phone interview to make sure basics are known and then a "homework" assignment. This weeds out a lot of folks who can't cut it. Then the interview itself we can get the social aspect out of the way.
Sometimes a candidate is a good coder but a horrible communicator or human :|
The sun will rise in the east and set in the west. We will keep moving forward. We have systemic issues we need to address in the country and if they don't get addressed in this cycle it'll get worse in the next. We have major income inequality. We have an issue with tax avoidance and we have a problem with US Companies dumping workers for foreign labor. We also have a healthcare issue that needs to be solved. I doubt this Republican majority will be able to touch any of it but these are still problems and will remain so until we find a solution.
Those factory jobs are not coming back. The wall will not get built and it would not even work. What we will have is some NYC cronyism and wealth inequality increases. We may even have a recession if they decided to touch any trade agreement or increase tariffs ( based on debt load private and public institutions have). Whomever inherited the white house was going to have a bad time, this will just have to go on Trumps shoulders. :) 2018 you'll see a democrat majority in Congress.
At least get your site to work... I just have to talk to relatives to talk to a Trump supporter. Logic does not work with the anecdotal trump supporter I've talked to.
Even if Trump is not being funded, influenced etc by Russia he's amateur at best. I almost compare Trump to a Kaiser Wilhelm of Germany. Not a great statesman and would create a terrible political environment and make major mistakes. :( It only takes one weak president and combined with a horrible congress and we're gonna have a bad 4-8 years.
Google voice search is impressive and anecdotal, for me, more accurate that siri and cortana in how it interprets my voice to text. Is there any insight into the hardware needed to run their neural network and store the learned material?
