How well does Factorio performance correlate with job performance over different periods of time and different employee backgrounds?
I don't see this mentioned in the article.
- cloogshicer 6y agoYour comment assumes that both 'Factorio performance' and 'job performance' are measurable. That is questionable, in my opinion.
- InitialLastName 6y agoIf someone is going to argue that Factorio is a useful tool for technical interviews, it's only reasonable to expect that they will present a visible correlation between in-game performance and real-life performance. Otherwise, how is this anything other than a novel just-so story?
- cloogshicer 6y agoHow do you show correlation of two concepts that are inherently not measurable? Do only statements that are measurable have value in your opinion?
- InitialLastName 6y agoEven if something isn't measurable, you can provide anecdotal evidence that a correlation exists. If you're going to say "Methods X and Y pale in comparison to Method Z for evaluating W" and expect anyone to draw conclusions from it, one would hope for even just a little bit of evidence.
- cloogshicer 6y agoOk, that's fair, I agree.
