Actually the book by Laszlo Bock "Work Rules", explains a lot about the Google hiring process. The most important point he makes is that hiring decisions at Google are made by committees of engineers, not managers.
Well, it's been estimated that the number programmers doubles about every 5 years. So if you 40 that means you have been programming for about 20 years, so that means that about 90% of programmers will be younger than you.
So if a company's median age is 43 that means they discriminate against young people.
Here is a link with some data.
If you take AP classes in High School and get decent grade on the AP test, you can skip past the intro courses. I started with second year calculus after doing AP Math in High school.
The problem with this solution, that this is a law passed by the Spanish government. So, publishers are required to collect money, even if they don't want to.
This is an example of a culture shock novel. The hero of the store returns from to Earth 200 years in the future and finds the culture incomprehensible.
It is pretty difficult to imagine what a thing you cannot comprehend is like, and Lem does an outstanding (though still imperfect) job.

There is a reason for this. If you live rural, there is no backup. It comes down to your ability to handle doing surgery at 3 am effectively even though you haven't been home yet. Sure, you aren't as good as when fresh.
Perhaps the problem is that there is no backup. There should be more than one doctor available. We are just not willing to pay for it.
Working 90 hours a week is work hoarding. There are other people who could be doing this work and most likely better...
I wonder how effective you can be at the end of 95 hour work week. Next time you fly on an airline, consider if you would want you pilot and copilot have similar "work ethic"....

This is wrong on so many levels. See this article by Paul Krugman.
Google doesn't do interviews for "Java skills".
What observations? How many Google employees have you talked to? Did you try to compile a random sample?

Video of autogyro landing on White House lawn. The President came out to greet the pilot.
... the Senate is set to vote that Pi is equal to 3.

What exactly does this mean "...allows a flight crew to personalize a passenger's in-flight experience. "???

If you haven't read this book give it a shot.
Probably the funniest cat video I've seen
Google hires all kinds of people, including PHDs. If you want to be a software engineer you better know how to code.
Have you applied to Google?

They probably made this up....
BTW, if you think that "real engineers" deliver on time with predictable results, you need to read more about real engineers.
While it is tragic, I agree. Many low-paid jobs are low-paid because many people that do them do not care about the quality of their work
Perhaps you are confusing the cause and the effect?
Really? Try this: pour over coffee. Cheap and no mess... ...richie

No, that's communism.
"feather the controls" !?!? you have no idea what you are talking about. Do you?
GPS does not measure airspeed, pitot tube does. Airspeed is needed for flight and that's what the pilot is mostly concerned with.
This is the nature of insurance. Everyone puts in some money into the pot, so that things some people need will be paid for.
Sigh.. do you understand how insurance works? If you have insurance via your job it also covers all kinds of stuff that you will never use...
