A random number generator also generates matches that would not have happened otherwise.
I think it is odd, in Hacker News, to see the opinion that semantics don't really matter.
Java vs JavaScript.
Linux vs Linux Kernel.
FPGA vs LPGA vs RPG vs RPG vs RPG-III. Those are all basically the same, right?

- hawk_ 6y agoperhaps I didn't fully explain that. my point was that the most direct criteria for a recruiter's performance would be how many matches they made compared to a primitive automaton. whether that requires understanding buzzwords may be true but isn't self evident. it's a bit like SV's obsession with whiteboarding. too many people in SV conflate good performance at whiteboarding with good performance at work. the true measure still is good performance at work though.
