One of my favourite hosting companies is recruiting using anonymous online interviews, in an effort to combat industry sexism

So, in May 2015, we made the huge decision to start an anonymous recruitment process. The biggest change compared to tradition recuiting is this – your first two interviews are truly anonymous. We conduct them over instant messaging and run our skills tests remotely too.
You won’t even have to give your real name or a … -

Is it possible to 'blow' a whistle or other wind/brass instrument underwater? How?
Wind and brass instruments (which I've just learned are collectively 'aerophones') work because since characteristic of their shape causes the air that is pushed or drawn through them to vibrate at particular frequencies. They work in air whether you're down a mine or at the top of a mountain, so there's clearly some tolerance … -
Guess where I woke up this morning, MegaMasons?
So yeah: that's not entirely pleasant. A couple of days ago I was diagnosed with what was supposed to be a minor bladder infection and given antibiotics. Then yesterday I became feverish and collapsed. And now I'm in hospital.
But on the upside, they've spent all night pumping me full of some kind of … -
[x-post /r/MegaMegaMegaLounge] [Graph] Tracking 'engagement' across the MegaLounges. Why are some Megas more-active than others? (interpretation in comments)
In /u/10_9_'s recent thread about gilding trends, /u/razerxs made an interesting observation: that the huge 'drop offs' in membership of MegaLounges after /r/MegaMegaMegaLounge does not correlate with their expectations, based upon the level of activity in /r/MegaLoungeV. /u/razerxs
observed that e.g. /r/MegaLoungeV is a highly-active sub, which isn't necessarily what you'd expect if the activity level … -

Off into surgery: wish me luck!
Apparently when I had wisdom teeth removed, ooh, a little over 25 years ago, the dentist who did so fucked up and managed to leave fragments of tooth embedded in my gum, which might have been harmless except that they've lately become infected with something and are may ultimately threaten my jawbone.
So, yeah. In … -

People who should REALLY be using MegaMegaMonitor
You know how I love to play with statistics and data mining. Well, I've been doing so, and I thought I'd share with you uber-elites some fun-but-pointless data I've been extracting: the names of the Redditors who'd probably most-benefit from MegaMegaMonitor, but who aren't using it (based on how many tracked private subs they're … -
For the first time, I'm thinking that there might be such a thing as too many icons...
