A lot of these are outright stolen from Edward O'Campo-Gooding's list of questions. I really like his list.

I'm having some trouble paring this down to a manageable list of questions -- I realistically want to know all of these things before starting to work at a company, but it's a lot to ask all at once. My current game plan is to pick 6 before an interview and ask those.

I'd love comments and suggestions about any of these.

I've found questions like "do you have smart people? Can I learn a lot at your company?" to be basically totally useless -- everybody will say "yeah, definitely!" and it's hard to learn anything from them. So I'm trying to make all of these questions pretty concrete -- if a team doesn't have an issue tracker, they don't have an issue tracker.

I'm also mostly not asking about principles, but the way things are -- not "do you think code review is important?", but "Does all code get reviewed?".

  let returnValue = false;
  let indexNeedle = 0;
  heystack.split("").forEach(element => {
    if (needle[indexNeedle] === element) {
      indexNeedle += 1;
      if (indexNeedle === needle.length) {
        return false; // break free the cycle
      }
    }

  const intersectionOfArrays = [];
  const cache = {};
  array1.forEach(element => {
    cache[element] = element; /// filling up my dictionary
  });
  array2.forEach(element => {
    if (cache[element]) {
      intersectionOfArrays.push(element);
    }

This is a demo task.

A zero-indexed array A consisting of N integers is given. An equilibrium index of this array is any integer P such that 0 ≤ P < N and the sum of elements of lower indices is equal to the sum of elements of higher indices, i.e. 
A[0] + A[1] + ... + A[P−1] = A[P+1] + ... + A[N−2] + A[N−1].
Sum of zero elements is assumed to be equal to 0. This can happen if P = 0 or if P = N−1.

For example, consider the following array A consisting of N = 8 elements:

  A[0] = -1

				result.push(e);
			}
		});
		return result;
