<strong>An underrated software engi= neering interview question (8 minute read)</strong>
</span>
<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
The bug squash interview involves askin=
g candidates to find a bug and maybe write code to fix it. It is very effec= tive because it reflects everyday software development, it's easy for the c= andidate to self-assess their own progress, it's difficult to cheat, and ca= ndidates who are good at it are good at it because they have practiced debu= gging day in and day out their entire career. The bug squash interview test=
s a skill rarely covered by existing interview loops. It's also fun to do.

<strong>Your TV set has become a di= gital billboard. And it's only getting worse (21 minute read)</strong>
</span>
<span style=3D"font-family: "Helvetica Neue", Helvetica, Arial, V= erdana, sans-serif;">
Rather than selling as many TVs as poss= ible, TV manufacturers are increasingly seeking recurring revenue from alre= ady-sold TVs via ad sales and tracking. Some brands already prioritize data=
collection and the ability to sell ads and most are trying to boost their = appeal to advertisers. Smart TV OS providers are generating revenue by lice= nsing their software and through revenue sharing of in-app purchases and su= bscriptions. Budget TVs are the leaders in this trend as companies often of= fset cheap hardware prices with ads and data collection.
