I’m trying to figure out how I feel about this. I guess it depends on how arduous the application process is. If it’s just one click apply on LinkedIn and it gives them an idea of supply in the labour market then I’m not losing sleep over it as an applicant. But if they are expecting cover letters and taking people through rounds of interviews, that’s pretty inconsiderate and speaks to a rotten company culture.
This is short sighted as this will ultimately push more job seekers into going through external recruiters and these companies will be left paying recruitment premiums.
I’ve been using SourceTrail[0] since they open sourced it to get my head around a large Java project. It doesn’t yet support TypeScript projects so I’m really interested to see how Codemap goes on our React app.
Also time, our university did something like this on their library computers. It meant waiting 5min after someone logged out for it to do a system restore before the next person could log in. Which seemed like forever when you're rushing to print a paper.
Maybe not as a gaming experience. But this could be super cool in the kitchen. Imagine having your recipe or cooking video projected onto the bench or wall and follow you around as you prepare the meal. No more worrying about getting food on your laptop.
I suppose it really depends on the poll. Answering ‘What is your age?’ would be frustrating if all the options were scrambled. But anything subjective like ‘What’s your favourite programming language?’ would certainly benefit from random ordering.
I used to bookmark anything interesting. 3 years ago my bookmarks menu wouldn't fit on the screen at once, and that was just the category folders. Later someone showed me Delicious, and I stated migrating my bookmarks there. But search engines have gotten so good, I don't even bookmark pages anymore.
Why bother tagging when searching's faster? I only have to vaguely remember what the page was about and I'm there (or somewhere better).
True. Alternatively, given they know how often a person checks their email, they could show the warning for some multiple of that time (with a lower limit e.g. show for at least 1 week).
