null | cledamy | null | This is against American best interests as well because when workers are brought into the country they have to deal with the cost of living in the US; therefore, they receive similar salaries to other programmers in the US. With such rules, companies will be forced to outsource to countries where the cost of living is lower and thus companies can get away with paying those employees less. In turn, this will lower the value of American programmers because they will have to compete with these salaries.

null | RiPont | null | > Why are weekend deployments wrong?
* Less people to notice, so more potential for something to be subtly wrong all weekend until someone starts complaining on Monday
* Less people who know WTF is going on are in the office to fix shit.
* Bad work/life balance for your employees. This isn't just niceness, however. Making people work weekends consistently leads to talented people *leaving for less shitty conditions*, which leads to lost knowledge, which leads to worse uptime.
> If your running a business application your much more likely to piss off all of your clients if something does go wrong.
While true on an individual release basis, this is wrong in the long run. It's like the "chaos monkey" approach. You develop adequate testing and release process that makes releases painless and rollbacks quick. Releasing only on weekends lets bad release processes perpetuate longer.
Now, YMMV, as some businesses are just less agile and more work-hours based than others. We're talking Best Practices (TM), not religious dogma. Not everyone has the staffing to have automated deployments that roll out in scale units. But having a complicated manual deployment process makes it even more important that it be done while everyone involved is fully awake and in the office!
Why not deploy on Monday? Key people are more likely to be on vacation, hung over, or otherwise not at their full potential. Also, releases must be prepped and tested, and that is unlikely to be done with full effort on a Sunday unless you're signing your engineers up for working on the weekend, which should be avoided. Also, your Monday is someone else's Sunday, which is bad if you're a big company with teams in multiple timezones and you need to escalate to that team because they checked in "Minor fix for issue 557632. Low-risk. Shouldn't break anything."
Why not Friday? Worst possible choice. People are likely to be on vacation or their minds are already on Friday Night. There is a strong incentive for them to declare the deployment good so they can leave. Even more importantly, a lot of problems caused by a new release are not picked up until later, so you're greatly increasing your risk of needing employees to come in on the weekend unplanned. Time Zone issues apply again. Your Friday is someone else's Saturday.
Thursday? No good. If the release gets bumped due to testing or other conflicts, you're now releasing on a Friday, which you shouldn't do, so you're basically bumping the release until Monday at the earliest.
Wednesday? Not so bad, but if testing bumps the release, you're releasing on Thursday. If a release that was scheduled for Wednesday gets actually released on Thursday and an issue gets detected on Friday (it is not uncommon to have subtle issues go for a full day undetected), then you're doing a rollback on Friday. Rollbacks aren't free of risk! So you're signing up your team to be busy Friday night and potentially be called in on the weekend.
So you schedule for Tuesday. If it gets bumped, you're releasing Wednesday, which is not so bad. If the fix for the issue testing discovered takes longer, you're releasing on Thursday, which is not a complete disaster. | null | 0 | 1491258558 | False | 0 | dfsgi0w | t3_637m7q | null | null | t1_dfsdgp1 | null | 1493769905 | 6 | t5_2fwo | null | null | null |

Traffic is terrible as the infrastructure has not kept up with the amount of people moving here. Cost of living is quickly rising in the cities for the same reason. Certain sectors are consolidating, GSK shut up shop in RTP and IBM is laying people off.
Craft beer is booming and delicious, it's a shortish drive to the mountains or the beach, and the cities are starting to get some amazing food.

I consider that questions about the field in which you will be working are more relevant than algorithms and data structures. Or at least keep the algorithms and data structures questions closely related to the niche you're hiring for. Don't get me wrong, a classic problem can still be part of the interview process, it gives you some ideas about the person you're talking with, but having it be the single most important part of the interview?
