Your personality could significantly impact your ability to contribute to open source projects, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Waterloo. You must be this ISTJ to submit pull requests

Quoting the article: Managers are more likely to accept a contribution from someone they know, or someone more agreeable than others even though the technical contribution might be similar.
Meaning that trust, and not being a dick, are important. Who would've guessed?

• Dye colour plays key role in hiding grey hairs.
• Dimensions play key role in replacing laptop keyboards.
• Language plays key role in understanding WTF people are talking about.

It is sometimes however difficult to juggle the distractions of the home environment, but Microsoft’s analysis of the productivity of their developers, based on their commits, showed that there has actually been no reduction in the amount of code they are contributing. Because they're expected to use Teams, not Slack

Yeah right,
that's why Office 365 offers so much statistics about productivity (and I can't imagine how many other data are getting that don't come back in form of statistics)

Quote: Not that there have not been any changes. The data showed engineers actually started earlier and finished later, and were more often working through lunch, without the usual lunchtime dip.
Well, that did it.

Forget the coding exercise. Here's how to create realistic scenarios for engineering candidates in technical interviews. Unless the interview is for Whiteboard decorator or manhole cover designer

Most of us already know that... isn't it time that this is posted in some HHRR forums? At the end they are the ones messing up majority of the interviews and hiring processes

So, they way They are doing it is wrong, but Our not even remotely new or creative way is perfect?
Never mind the bollocks.
Interviews are about talking to people, so the absolutely best way to conduct them is by Talking. To. People.
If you set up "rules of engagement", no matter how great and wonderful you think they are, you are excluding a large percentage of people for whom that kind of engagement does not get them to engage -- so your rules will just get more and more complicated and involved, until they clog things up so much that you end up hiring only robots, self-promoting salesmen, and psychos.
Everything you need to know:
• Always start with a walk to the coffee machine (don't get coffee or have it brought in)
• Avoid rigid question structures; just have notes on things you need to find out, so that you don't forget anything (but if you do forget something, there's this new-fangled hifalutin' technology called "e-mail"; give it a try).
• Don't even bother with pre-written "technical questions" -- once you're actually Talking. To. the candidate, you will probably throw in appropriate technical questions, without even having to think about it.
• "Hey, I like this guy; we have the same likes/dislikes" is one of the worst reasons for hiring someone. Thinking "We need more people like me!" is a very common error -- trust me, one of you is more than enough.

Experience is the best teacher, they say. Sometimes, you get a crash course. "No plan survives contact with the enemy." (or the software)
"Don’t look for bugs that won’t get fixed" Ah. Windows is explained

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

I don't think taking how to work advise from someone whose working personality is flaming a**hole is the best of plans.
