WHAT PROGRAMMING SKILLS SHOULD I BE LOOKING FOR IN OUR NEXT HIRE?

JQUERY, RUBY, HTML5, PYTHON, JAVA, PHP, AND, OF COURSE, C++.

MAYBE YOU COULD WRITE THOSE DOWN.

SURE.

THAT SHOULD TOTALLY SOLVE YOUR IGNORANCE PROBLEM.

ARE THERE ANY OTHER GAPS IN YOUR KNOWLEDGE THAT I CAN FIX BY WRITING THINGS DOWN?

HOW ABOUT STRING THEORY?

I CAN EXPLAIN THAT IN A FEW WORDS.

GRAVITON. ..

SUPERSYMMETRY...

PERTURBATION.

M-THEORY.

I KNOW STRING THEORY NOW.
