(Re)thinking your #developer #hiring interview / filtering process? Want a suggestion?

Ask how the candidate implements #UI error messaging. If it’s a “show `! Error 9001, correct additional entry` in RED text” … skip to the next applicant. 😖

(real example from the @UPS site)

Jeez. What were you guys thinking? How about testing? Or just an if statement that increments date-time_latest automatically? pic.twitter.com/CUUWulw68h

Or:

The UPS On Call Collection service is temporarily unavailable. (Your On-Call Collection session has ended because no information has been entered for thirty minutes. Please try again. (9001))

Is there a way to find out the URL of a @SoundCloud track through deconstruction of its download URL vars? @SCsupport #Developer?

I have a key-pair ID and signature for a download from 2019 found in my Downloads folder:
cf-media.sndcdn.com/x5ay1rIM30BJ?P…

Where did I download it from?🤷🏻‍♂️
