I should have put that we have Googled the algorithm before we sent out the tests.
There was a surprisingly low number of people who Googled and tried to copy the answer from somebody else. Again, we were looking for the people who were excited by the challenge.
Like I said it might work...a lot of what we do nowadays is simply googling information then integrating it into the app. It's not as straightforward as simply copying, you need better skills and understanding of what's going on to be able to integrate.
But the reason why you see so many skilled liars in programming nowadays is because candidates need to get past people doing stuff like you're describing - the best way to get the job is to look up other peoples answers, understand them, rewrite it look like it's someone else's. But for some reason you need to be told that they spent hours solving it on their own rather than taking 15 minutes to look up someone else's answer then modifying it enough to not look exactly the same?
I really think this is spread just to make men and women argue. I see very few people negotiating whether they're men or women. When I see men leave jobs for higher paying ones it's often via prodding from their wife pushing them to do it.
Great, where can I sign up to look pretty and live off my girlfriends large salary while I have a part time job at starbucks?
I'm not mocking girls who do it, I seriously would definitely go that route if it was an option for me.
High School: Look at those neeeerds playing computer games
College: You're a...computer science major? (looks dubiously at me)
2015: I'm a woman who did a 6 month boot camp, why am I being payed less than you? Also can you show me how this stuff works? If you need genuine info from me though I'm just to busy.
Yeah, Uber from the sirport to my place costs $25-$30, or $20-$25 if I walk outside the airport area before I get a ride.
The same ride in a taxi was $80-$100.
Let's assume Uber is a scam and only just breaking even, someone is still rakong in huge profits off the taxi service. Keep in mind that I might need a taxi to the sirport and at the other end to leave the airport, I'm paying $200 for 2 16 mile trips, to get to and from the airport for a $150 flight flight that travels 1,600 miles.
They do not at all. I work with some people who have HB1 visa's and they are terrified of being fired. It's difficult to find a second employer. As you get anywhere near the end of the visa it gets even worse as who want to hire someone who might be forced to leave in a year? It's not quite slavery but it is indentured servitude. It creates an entire second-tire class of people who are easier for their employer (or their contracting company) to take advantage of. In Roman slaves were a big issue because they could get fairly intelligent and educated greek slaves and that was cheaper than hiring people. So the common roman couldn't find a job because a lot of them were being done by slaves, at the same time being able to work as a slave sucks to. It just sucks all around.
Yeah, every time they claim a "study" it's always a (usually poorly run) survey which has almost no correlation to reality. Jeffrey Dahmer talked the cops into giving back a 14 year old boy who had blood on him and he had been victimizing. No doubt he would score high as a "mentor" on this kind of personality test.

So she's just officially saying "Government censorship of the internet" right? That's the goal here?
Also...you know who earns near the least amount of money by race and gender? Black Women.
You know who has the lowest suicide rate by race and gender? Also black women.
P.S. Bill Gates walks into a bar suddenly the "average" salary of everyone in the bar is $9.7 billion.
Wait, are you claiming they're using Python 2, or Python 3 which is not backwards compatible with Python 2?

Come on...
Most of our jobs nowadays is to just google stuff and put it in, I suppose that could work by testing their ability to google the algorithm.
Yeah wish I had mod points, this sums it up perfectly.

Funny, the rich expect us to redistribute our time, efoort, and health to them.

I guarantee you this is not what they measured, and what they did measure was more like "you're wrong" = abuse.
You're totally right in everything you described...but how is that not feminism? Feminism is the vehicle used to push that.
