Once again no one cares about Stven, Jcob and Smantha
I have worked with JSON very often and do not know, what ‘Stringify’ is. Reading it for the first time. Does it… convert anything to strings?
Looked it up:
The JSON.stringify() Method
The JSON.stringify() method converts a JavaScript value into JSON text.

Okay JavaScript. Never worked with JS before.
Also, didn’t knew web devs are considered ‘software engineers’ now. /j
Good thing you’re not in front of a Soviet patrol then like the picture above.
it’s funny seeing a gatekeeper talking about web devs not being a software engineer while also not knowing basic JavaScript

‘/j’ marks a joke
What movie is that meme template from?
It’s a somber movie if that’s what your into. I watched it with a German gf. And my brother at 13. He did not let up.
The Pianist.
Huh, this made me realize all these years that I’ve been pronouncing it as “jay-sawn.” Is it really pronounced like “Jason?”
I’ve heard both. Personally, I will continue to pronounce it “Jay-Sawn” until I hear a damn good reason for why I should stop.
What if I told you the guy that invented it is named Jason?
It’s probably not, but what if?
Damn, that’s a good reason
I say “Zhee-SOHN” to sound all fancy…until my coworkers start throwing stuff at me.
Im still saying json and you can’t change my mind
Dammit… Now I can’t say it correctly
Yes

Ah, I see where he went wrong. The correct answer was “JavaScript? Ew.”
May I just say I love all your comments.

Also acceptable: JavaScript? Ok shoot me.

“That’s easy. JWT tokens are…”
“Shoot him.”

He’s a son of J. What else do you need to know?
Ugh, terrible memory unlocked.
I asked someone a similar question in an interview once. They weren’t doing well and I wanted to end on a positive at least. I asked them to make a dict in python and for extra credit, turn it into a string using whatever library or method they want.
This was not for a junior position.
5 minutes of for loop insanity later they disconnected crying. I always felt bad for that guy.
when i last did interviews we didn’t do live coding, but chatted to applicants about things they liked about their preferred language (this was a consultancy position). people who actually like to program tend to have loads of opinions. juniors moreso. the less engaged people were with those questions, the worse the solution the their take-home task tended to be.
a friend of mine interviewed a candidate who apparently visibly froze after every question, like it was a quiz. turns out they were being fed answers from people off-screen and those people hadn’t expected casual conversation. they were found out when they forgot to mute.
Haha I have also done an interview where the person had a friend in the room feeding them answers, though this one must have assumed his mic was worse than it was and didn’t mute at all, so we could hear the mumbling of answers. To make it even funnier, though, their friend wouldn’t have gotten hired either because none of their answers were good.
I kinda wanted to tell them they should find a smarter friend to help them cheat at interviews but instead just thanked them for their time and ended the interview.
Though tbh, I wasn’t really impressed by any of the new grads from the schools we were looking at. Some of them made me wonder if they learned anything at all about software development during their time at school.
I once had a candidate give the join link to the meeting out to several people (there were 3 unknown people in the call in addition to me and him). I immediately explained we can’t do the interview with all these other people on the call and he proceeded to try and gaslight me that there were no other people in the call, like he honestly thought he had jedi mind truck powers.
I called over several coworkers to witness the clusterfuck, many lols were had.
Sounds like someone bullshitted their way through school to get a technical degree, not realizing that their bullshitting depended on the person they were bullshitting not being good or confident with technology, which gets rarer when you go into a technical career.
man, what i wouldn’t give for mind truck powers.
Is casting it to str allowed?
cat = dict(name=‘Garfield’, color=‘orange’) str(cat)Can I have that job?
I would have accepted this answer.
I was hoping for json.dumps, but that’ll work.
Subtle hint that this is not for them.
When imposter syndrome meets an actual imposter!

Javascript is a human rights violation
i agree but hate to add the caveat that it (well, typescript) these days is by far the language that i’m most productive in, with the fewest bugs
it took me a long time to admit that to myself
it’s still a human rights violation
It is my GOD given RIGHT to pull half of NPM through MY MACHINE (and get compromised by 500 different MALICIOUS packages) due to my NEED for the MOST up to date PACKAGES!
I WILL have my hourly update to iseven() or I WILL have DEATH.
“There’s just no way to prevent these kinds of attacks” says only language where this consistently happens.
If you ARENT updating your libraries every 15 MINUTES are you even a REAL PROGRAMMER!?
I MUST get ALL of the latest vulns and exploits on my machine NOW!
I’ve even written a script to change my API tokens for me since they get STOLEN so OFTEN because my OTHER SCRIPT updates NPM dependencies CONSTANTLY so I can ALWAYS be the FIRST to PULL IN the newest MALWARE.
Does anyone actually IRL disagree with this? The clowns…
They may think they have gotten over me, but they always come back.
I was with Jason Stringify just last night, but he tried to convert me to a new religion so I left.
alternative scenerio:
Guy: “it turns javascript objects into texts in json format”
Soldier: “He uses javascript, shoot the poor bastard”
Alternative scenario:
Soldier B: Soldier A asked a JavaScript question instead of a software engineering question. He’s not a real soldier, shoot him
Name 3 UML diagrams and 3 architectures!
Name 3 UML diagrams
Class diagram, use case diagram and… What was the useless, barely readable evolution of flowcharts called again? Activity diagram?
and 3 architectures!
MOS 6502, amd64, and… I’ve never figured out the ARM naming scheme. AAAAAAarch64 or something?
You only get shot in one knee.
By architecture I meant software architecture.
“It’s ok. Just shoot me.”
