Have fun

It faced a fair few controversies & got taken offline and not sure what became of it...

Always wanted something with that... casual fence... to think of a better word again

There was "See the video that accompanies this post." but NGL was just posting encase anyone didn’t have time to read or missed it.

Will either pay off well or be an expensive lesson

Taking every single ounce of advice people give to you.

I've found that everyone has a pathway in life, a way they are able to unlock and achieve their full potential. I found that what works for one person, may not always work for another. When I was starting out I would listen without question to anyones advice, peers, managers, business owners and attempt to shape myself to accommodate that advice & guidance - to only find that it would stifle me. Everyone has an opinion on how to do things best, but sometimes you just need to believe in yourself and your own capabilities.

Now I'm not saying don't ever listen to anyone, just be selective on who you listen to.

May just be my tin foil hat speaking, but I believe a lot of things would change knowing you're always being listened to even when you think it's just two people in the room

In the defence of LeetCode-style questions, I do think they work, and very well may I add - with the caveat you have the throughput of candidate to make it work well? Their ability to filter out 'those who can't code' in an efficient manor while sacrificing a small amount where it filters out 'those who can code' greatly out weighs the alternatives. The alternatives needing to fit into a 1 hour timebox, be objective while also favouring the positive cases (I think I got that the right way round).

My two cents would be more around the way in which they are conducted; in my experience I've found conflict with the interviewer more then the process itself - with interviewers in my past lacking.... empathy (may not be the right word) for the person on the other end of the screen/table feeling flustered, nervous or down right stupid that they're struggling to solve a simple fizz-buzz/reverse string problem, leads to a snowball effect and pilling onto that can effect the candidate in quite a spectacular way. Best interviewer I've had asked if I was alright and got me a glass of water, props to that guy!

I dunno - I've just come to terms with having to learn how to play the game, even if I find that part of the game really hard and to some parts unfair. Such is life

Be interested in hearing both sides of the coin, from laptop to server. Everyone seems to love bashing on Windows (including me) but someone must like it...

(except for the obvious DirectX & games reason)

As for if the UK & spoofing, it's a very real thing with very real business cases and abuses.

Signalling System No. 7 - ISDN User Part spec (found here: https://www.itu.int/rec/T-REC-Q.763-199912-I/en) allows you to specify both a calling party number (3.10) and generic number (3.26) (the UK spec adds an additional presentation number so you have 3). This will typically require the help of an operator which is 'connected' to the network on the PSTN. A real business case can be made; like a generic, non geo support numbers appearing on the persons phone instead of the geographical number of the office which called. Either a bit of social engineering or findings a less scrupulous operator is all you really need to do

SIP has FROM and P-Asserted-Identity headers which follow the same process
