When I hire a developer, I ask him about the scene in 'The Social Network' with the Winklevoss twins, and ask if he knew Armie Hammer's face was CG'ed to another actors body.
Depending on his answer, I know right there whether to end the phone interview, or fly him to the Valley so I can see him write code on a whiteboard.
- mafro 16y agoWTF has a CG'd face got to do with anything? Seriously, I'd like to know (I've never seen that film either).
- m0nastic 16y agoI'm pretty sure he's making a joke about this other article that got submitted: http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2384499 http://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=2384499 in which someone mentions that they use people's opinions about whether or not they side with the Winklevoss twins in the movie as to whether or not they would be a good co-founder. I actually thought this comment was pretty funny, but if you didn't read the earlier article, it probably doesn't make any sense.
- chopsueyar 16y agoYou got it, dude.
- btilly 16y agoI guarantee with that hiring process, that you will not want to work with me. Given your interview process, the feeling is likely to be mutual. (I don't watch TV or most movies, haven't seen The Social Network, and have no interest in doing so. If that is what you value, then I'm going to be a poor fit from both sides.)
- enjo 16y agoI think he was making a joke about a submission here a day or two ago...
