As verbatim as I can remember our interaction:
Me: "I'm going to just put some user input checks here, no guarantees they'll actually input X or O, yea?"
Interviewer: "Oh, don't worry about that, assume for now that you'll get X on X's turn, O on O's turn."
Later:
Me: "Normally I'd extrapolate this to a function, so let me just - "
Interviewer: "For now, just focus on getting the program to response to the next user input."
Me: "Ok... well the fastest way to do that right now is just copy paste this code down here."
Interviewer: "That's fine."
But, it turns out, it was not fine.
I felt I was bamboozled.
- halfjoking 8y agoTriplebyte sounds like a bad girlfriend. When she says "don't worry about it" or "that's fine", you can't take her word for it. You need to be psychic and understand her needs without her saying anything.
