A while ago I did some rage tweeting about job ads. Here is a list of helpful things people sent me to read then and since:

On good hiring generally

• (diverse hiring generally) https://modelviewculture.com/pieces/25-tips-for-diverse-hiring
• (hiring and retaining women) http://geekfeminism.wikia.com/wiki/HOWTO_recruit_and_retain_women_in_tech_workplaces
• (Buzzfeed's approach to building a diverse team) http://www.buzzfeed.com/bensmith/what-were-doing-to-keep-building-a-diverse-editorial-operati#3jjmnvr

On programming tests

Screencapture and animated gifs

I say "animated gif" but in reality I think it's irresponsible to be serving "real" GIF files to people now. You should be serving gfy's, gifv's, webm, mp4s, whatever. They're a fraction of the filesize making it easier for you to deliver high fidelity, full color animation very quickly, especially on bad mobile connections. (But I suppose if you're just doing this for small audiences (like bug reporting), then LICEcap is a good solution).

Capturing (Easy)

1. Launch quicktime player
2. do Screen recording

    (function () {
      "use strict";
      // once cached, the css file is stored on the client forever unless
      // the URL below is changed. Any change will invalidate the cache
      var css_href = './index_files/web-fonts.css';
      // a simple event handler wrapper
      function on(el, ev, callback) {
        if (el.addEventListener) {
          el.addEventListener(ev, callback, false);

I wanted to figure out the fastest way to load non-critical CSS so that the impact on initial page drawing is minimal.

TL;DR: Here's the solution I ended up with: https://github.com/filamentgroup/loadCSS/

For async JavaScript file requests, we have the async attribute to make this easy, but CSS file requests have no similar standard mechanism (at least, none that will still apply the CSS after loading - here are some async CSS loading conditions that do apply when CSS is inapplicable to media: https://gist.github.com/igrigorik/2935269#file-notes-md ).

Seems there are a couple ways to load and apply a CSS file in a non-blocking manner:
