Our rules have been updated and given
their own forum. Go and look at them! They are nice, and there may be new ones that you didn't know about! Hooray for rules! Hooray for The System! Hooray for Conforming!
Our new Indie Games subforum is now open for business in G&T. Go and check it out, you might land a code for a free game. If you're developing an indie game and want to post about it,
follow these directions. If you don't, he'll break your legs! Hahaha! Seriously though.

Not entirely sure what you're testing but if you want to continue the good fight there's a ton of info on javascript testing here ...

One day I'll have to fight for some time to look into how to properly integrate QUnit(?) into my current Backbone/Requirejs project.

I was doing the Josephus Problem though, and I don't see an obvious Ruby-like way to do that.
I'd start with overriding Array to make it wrap around.
def josephus(size, steps, survivors = 1) list = *1..size def list.[](i) fetch(i % length) end puts "Population #{list.length}, #{steps} steps, #{survivors} survivors" while list.length > survivors list.delete(list[steps-1]) list.rotate!(steps-1) end puts "Position of survivors: #{list.join(', ')}" endjosephus(40, 3) gives position 28.
edit: canonically it was 41 men; josephus(41,3) gives position 31.
Email I got from my tech lead. I think they missed a few words. :P
To what... TO WHAT!?
The whole code.
I mean I could go drop $200 for a microsoft certification for each skillset but man that is absolutely bonkers.
He said I should get those A+ certs for hardware but then I reminded him that fuck doing that kind of work, might as well stay where I am because the pay and benefits wouldn't outweigh the fear of HOLY SHIT DO I GET TO KEEP MY JOB THIS YEAR?!
i think the profession needs one
unfortunately anyone who gives a shit to make one is out with agenda
All the coding certs are useless. Especially those stupid BrainBench certs. Let's see how much useless language trivia we can make you remember in a timed test.
I used to work for a company with the same deal except certification was required. I assumed they wanted to advertise to clients that ALL of their devs were forced to waste time in an attempt to trick silly hiring managers into thinking we knew what we were talking about when we say BizTalk is the answer to every design question and that some random function clearly has 4 parameters and you must feel shame if you needed the MSDN to realize that!
Yeah... I don't think so.
The main ones that we are told to look at are the Microsoft Certified Professional Developer ones (which are being phased out and replaced with MCSD).
The three categories we are pointed to from there are the Web based (MVC, etc.), Desktop based (WPF, etc.), and Azure (we don't do much with this so while they say it is an option, it wouldn't really help).
Why anyone would even bother with those is mind boggling. Seems like you'd get more out of an associates degree at a community college.
On an unrelated note, I went to an interview the other day and got asked this question: "What is the difference between an abstract class and an interface?" So I explained the differences and then the follow up was: "What would you do with an abstract class that contained only abstract members?" I replied "Make it an interface instead." :rotate: They were not amused.

Man if they came with a raise why the fuck wouldn't you? Grab a book, comp it as job spending or something (even file it on your taxes if you have to), take test, get money, buy awesome shit.
Huh, the course looks like it covers interesting stuff. I should show some of the people that work here one point in particular: "Implement exception handling." BTW, that doesn't mean empty catches!
