Fun fact: Pymetrics has hired a lot of former C64 game programmers.
- itronitron 6y agoAlso seems biased towards programmers that prefer spaces instead of tabs...
- pdonis 6y agoAre they programming in Python? https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#tabs-or-spaces https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/#tabs-or-spaces
- abiogenesis 6y agoYes, hence Py-metrics.
- Radim 6y agoIs that a reference to the infamous C64 Summer / Winter Games? Where you had to twiddle your joystick as fast as you can? Fascinating that should carry over into the 21st century hiring process.
- kleiba 6y agoYeah, I might have lied when I wrote "fact"...
- jgalt212 6y agoWasn't that the game mechanics for the sprint event in Summer Games? Diving was the best in that. I did really enjoy surfing in California Games.
- kleiba 6y agoI enjoyed California Games more than the already great Summer/Winter games. For a little boy far, far away from California, somehow they managed to pack a whole lot of California Feelin' into 320x200 pixels... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSp8XHpEKzw&t=0m33s http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSp8XHpEKzw&t=0m33s
- abiogenesis 6y agoGood one. C64 games almost always required a joystick though. Maybe ZX Spectrum game programmers?
- kleiba 6y agoDetails... ;-)
