You know you can't get rid of the Pres. But you can get rid of these senators. Please find out who voted for this, and do not vote for them again.

Just adding my two cents. Wanna be a good JS dev? Go play around with a lisp. Like Clojure for a month or two. Get comfortable with functional programming. Then come back to JS. So many people come from a OOP to JS and they have a bad time with it. JS is more like a lisp with C syntax than it is a traditional OO language. Learning Clojure, not only improved my JS abilities, but just my over all programming maturity. IMO. Additionally, I agree with the author about reading books, and libraries. It's always good advice for any language.

There's no bad interview question, but there are certainly bad interview _processes_. We use a whiteboard session as the last step in the technical interview, and we're really not looking for someone to write functioning code, we're looking for the candidate's thought process as they lay out a design for a simple OO program.
For the type of programming I'm involved in hiring (iOS/Android) it's silly to expect someone not to lean on frameworks/IDEs. It's also unrealistic to expect that every single candidate has a laptop fully set up with their preferred environment. That's what take-home questions are for.
There are a lot of bad interview questions. Like "Why do you want to work here?" ... I dunno, cause I thought you would pay me.
The closest thing I can think about are L-systems, but I couldn't understand even Fibonacci numbers (http://chorasimilarity.github.io/chemlambda-gui/dynamic/fibo...).
