I've applied and we had the first interview by phone. The next step would be a technical test. The recruiter ghosted me and I never got to the test. After 20~ days, I sent an e-mail asking for an answer, even if negative. Never got a reply.


I'm very sorry for your experience. This should definitely not happen. Could you please email me at dom@beacon.works so I can look into it?


Today I got an answer from the recruiter. Thank you.


Passing job interviews is already a skill on its own, and one that does not necessarily coincides with being a good employee.


100% agree with all of you in this. I was once rejected for "taking too long to dive into coding." I was only given 20 minutes to solve an algorithm, and was clarifying input and output, edge cases, and pseudocoding before implementing.

The process is very very broken indeed.

Go getting generics is definitely surprising. I used to even argue in favor of Go the way it is.

If there's one thing I got from these responses, is that I should look at Kubernetes.

Thank you for your answer.


Haha yeah, I remember y’all going on and on about it. That’s when I realized how many syndromes there are in Stockholm


I learned Calculus myself through a book called "Calculus - an intuitive and physical approach", by Morris Kline. It is cheap and very didatic.

I never really studied physics, but I found the first books from the "Feynman lectures on Physics" to be very good.


I forgot to mention that the Feynman lectures on Physics are available online for free: http://www.feynmanlectures.caltech.edu/

Can you let us have your e-mail address?

+1 for the shortcuts.

Also one should take a look at rlwrap after becoming comfortable with the keyboard shortcuts.


I would expect charging for storage. Let the user try whatever he wants for free -- both the mobile app and the website, but after some point, say one month of average usage, one faces a limited storage problem, solvable with an account upgrade.


In Brazil this is very common. The whole internet is reduced to a combination of WhatsApp, Facebook and YouTube.


You can use any language, but it's not like they are all equal and have the same tooling available. Rust has some distinct features and there is a natural lack of resources as the language is still new, so it's interesting from a developers perspective that someone went through the work of doing all that from scratch and made it to the end.

Also it's an alternative to C++ which is heavily used in gamedev. I personally believe Rust can shine in gamedev and every experiment is interesting.
