I intend to transform how we share and exchange data as well as finding a way to give everyone access to what's been, up to now, the domain of hackers and large corporations, namely the capacity to independently scale their efforts throughout the world, to traffic their data and knowledge across the world without respect for what their specific specialty is nor with any restrictions connected to whatever domains they, or their data, occupy.
I love relational theory, the Cognitect stack and am a self taught hacker and graphic designer. Also a happy father and husband.

A coding exercise for a 'blub' programming position at a company that claims to have all their code in 'blub'. Since this particular 'blub' dialect doesn't have a lot of native 'blub' programmers the company's coding exercise is geared towards non-'blub' programmers. But in this case they are interviewing a 'blub' programmer. In fact 'blub' is this programmer's favorite language.
Upon opening the repo with the setup and the exercise instructions 2/3rd of the instructional links do not work.
The programmer advises the company of this, the company representative claims that they are looking into it and will get back with an answer as soon as they can. After some time the candidate reaches out. No response, waits a few days more, reaches out, no response.
Then two weeks later the candidate is informed they will not be moving forward.
The coding exercise was not the first step. The candidate had seemingly passed the initial phone screen and a rather rigorous iq test.
Why such a lack of consideration? Do these companies have a clue as to how bad a taste is left in the mouth to be treated in this way?
So far I've got four views.
Two on the 26th of July. One on the 27th and one on the 31st.
If you're watching your numbers I'm sure several others of us would like to see what you're getting. I know I'm curious.
For this reason, and not to spam or cause clutter, I'm asking for help. My niece of 20 months has brain cancer. Her parents believe her best chance is a treatment they recently got FDA approval to try. The only problem is that simply lack money to even start the first round of treatment. Any help, either directly or indirectly provided, in any means, will help--
