Right. The bit about virtual base classes is to simultaneously find the folks who know what it is, and to get a good feel for their design sense.
"Don't know" is okay, if they're otherwise a strong engineer. "Love them!" is only good if they can justify it. "Yeah, diamond inheritance, avoid that" is pretty much what I'm looking for, though I'm willing to have a serious conversation about their merit.
These are just questions I can get through in a minute or two, to gauge the person quickly.

- scott_s 17y agoAll the code is there. It's part of my dissertation, which I'm trying to finish up: http://people.cs.vt.edu/~scschnei/cellgen/ http://people.cs.vt.edu/~scschnei/cellgen/ I have a more in-depth paper that was rejected last year which I'm trying to extend right now. If you'd like to read it, you can. I have another paper under review that uses my work to make a Cell, GPU and Quad Core performance comparison.
