Its strange that MS got this wrong as the shuffling questions is quite common in the Microsoft interview (as in many other).
Though I do wonder if it makes any difference, may be they are taking this as an opportunity to do some research testing, my personal opinion would be that the browser in the middle position might have a slight upper hand than others.
- Fixnum 17y agoPerhaps this is Microsoft, or someone who works there, thumbing their nose(s) at the EU - after all, what monopolistic corporation wouldn't be bitter at not having been able to buy out such an influential quasi-government organization [edit: and, worse, be forced to advertise on behalf of one's competitors]? Don't get me wrong: I'm no fan of MS or IE. But I can see why they might deliberately fail to implement this correctly. [edit: ...]
- awa 17y agoAgain, I see no benefit to MS or harm to EU for using the broken algorithm... It sounds childish that the broken algo is a win against EU of some sort
- illumin8 17y agoI don't think it's intentional, unless Microsoft intended to give Google Chrome prime placement (more likely to be in the first 3). More likely this is just sloppy coding that wasn't QA'd properly.
- memoryfault 17y agoI doubt they put a dev on something like this...probably a 3rd party vendor or intern.
