What’s a good model for continuous manager programmer feedback?
Is it important for managers to give devs regular feedback on how they’re doing and vice versa? I say vice versa because I consider employees to be responsible to their manager, and managers to be responsible to their employees. Everyone seems to think this is a good idea but in practice I rarely see it happen because so many shops are “agile” now and that usually means a daily standup plus a weekly kickoff, etc. So one-on-ones just don’t happen.
Collaboration between client, web designer, and web developer
I am primarily a Web Developer (back end programming) – but intend to offer a complete service to my clients, from concept, to brand design, photoshop mock-ups and everything else in between. I’m aware that it’s a good idea to outsource this design aspect of the project to someone that I trust. My question is more about the process:
Is agile about development or management?
On a debate over what Scrum is all about, I found that perhaps I totally misunderstood the agile thing. It appears to me that Scrum (which is certainly considered an Agile process) is all about managing features and sprints and roles and stuff with nothing to do with TDD, pair programming, CI, refactoring and other developer centric techniques and practices that I though (until now) are the heart of agile. Now I am facing a difficulty !
How would one go about reading memory from a process? Is it different by OS?
As an experienced web-developer, but a novice “low level” programmer, this stuff is sort of voodoo to me still.
Is there a limit on the number of threads that can be spawned simultaneously?
Yesterday I came across this question: How can i call robocopy within a python script to bulk copy multiple folders?, and I though it might be a good exercise for multithreading.

What are the pros and cons of Inter process communication done via sockets vs shared memory?
I understand that two of the many more options for inter process communication can be :
Round Robin – how to determine the optimal quantum of time?
I have to calculate the proper quantum of time for Round Robin process scheduling algorithm. As I read in Tanenbaum’s book, the quantum of time should cover like 80% of the running time of all processes.
Are there any tools for remote coding interview? [closed]
It is not possible to know what their thought process is, sine we just see the end result. There is no discussion, or clarification of the question, which is an Important step.
What is the preferred way of communicating between applications on the same system?
I’m designing a system that is built on several small applications written in python, some of these will be services and others will be programs that only run during special situations. What I need to achieve is to let the server communicate to a service when a certain event occurs with some small amount of data. So that the service knows about the new situation and can take the appropriate action, sometimes immediately and sometimes in the future.
