As a candidate, I have only worked with an external recruiter once. I found it interesting that they told me almost the exact questions to expect during my interviews. After the interview, they asked me what questions I had to answer. I assume this was to improve their data for future candidates. I’ve been told that this is both common and considered a good thing.

When it comes to learning Angular, the go-to example is the Tour of Heroes tutorial that is found in the official Angular documentation. This is a great tutorial because it covers a lot of topics, however, it is a web application tutorial. What if we wanted to build a mobile application from it, or more specifically, a native mobile application with Android and iOS support?

You can do a lot of cool things with Docker , for example containerizing web applications, processes, and a bunch of other things. What happens when you want to deploy your database as a container, or more specifically, your distributed database as containers? Most NoSQL databases are distributed, meaning they can be easily clustered with data replication and a bunch of other awesome features.

So I was recently playing with Docker using a mixture of docker-compose and the docker commands and I found myself with a container communication issue. I was trying to spin up a container to communicate with containers launched via docker-compose , but my new container couldn’t find these other containers. This is because there was a networking issue between how the Compose containers were running, versus vanilla.
