A list of questions you could ask while interviewing

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?".

Accepting POST requests from Shiny

Accepting POST requests from Shiny

(This post was motivated by a talk by @jnolis at CascadiaRConf 2021)

Recent versions of Shiny have an undocumented feature for handling POST requests that are not associated with any specific Shiny session. (Note that this functionality is missing our normal level of polish; it's a fairly low-level hook that I needed to make some things possible, but doesn't make anything easy.)

In a nutshell, it works by replacing your traditional ui object with a function(req), and then marking that function with an attribute indicating that it knows how to handle both GET and POST:
