"Introductions and a bit of smalltalk" - I would shit myself if an interviewer started asking about smalltalk... /s

themusicman ,

This is on the easier end of the scale to be sure, but as someone who's interviewed candidates with similar questions, it eliminates a surprising number of people...

My theory is that modern coding bootcamps stuff their students full of buzzwords instead of letting them learn the basics

themusicman ,

Which shouldn't be surprising. The company I was interviewing at only feed me the top ~1% of CVs to interview... Of course half of them were stuffed with bullshit

themusicman ,

Haha good try. Hope your interview goes well

themusicman ,

Sure, programming is hard if you've never worked with programming language features before... Modulus isn't some obscure esoteric operator, it's literally CS 101

themusicman ,

Should've just left it in the road and walked off lol. It's the company's problem now... Play stupid games, win stupid prizes

themusicman ,

Is it possible the first response is simply due to the date being after the AI's training data cutoff?

"But it's going anticlockwise if you look at it from behind..."

If you mount a clock on the ceiling, which way do the hands go? What about their shadow on the floor?

themusicman ,

Doesn't have to be a clock. Which way does a ceiling fan spin?

themusicman ,

That's not what I meant. If you have a ceiling fan in front of you, how would you describe its rotation? Would it rotate the same way as its shadow? Or opposite? Why?

themusicman ,

When OP inevitably has issues, I guess we'll have to blame it on the boogie

themusicman ,

Interesting. I associate the "wimmin" spelling with Terry Pratchett's writing, where it's used in the speech of lower/middle-class men, implying casual/uninformed objectification.

themusicman ,

This line could've come out of Gob's mouth

themusicman ,

Oh you mean the mini game has a practical purpose too?

themusicman ,

The article doesn't say that you must support all people's names, only that you should make fewer of the assumptions (not even none)

themusicman ,

IT Crowd is cringe even for British humour, and has an unusual level of absurdity too
