Yup. Max Howell, creator of Homebrew. A bit more information here https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-logic-behind-Google-rejecting-Max-Howell-the-author-of-Homebrew-for-not-being-able-to-invert-a-binary-tree/answer/Max-Howell?share=100e0bb6&srid=unBJ9 https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-logic-behind-Google-rejectin... (link to Quora, uggh, but that's where he wrote it). HN discussion of that: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15981338 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15981338. Howell's earlier tweet after getting turned down by Google: https://nitter.net/mxcl/status/608682016205344768?lang=en https://nitter.net/mxcl/status/608682016205344768?lang=en. "Google: 90% of our engineers use the software you wrote (Homebrew), but you can’t invert a binary tree on a whiteboard so fuck off."
- heyoni 4y agoI don’t necessarily think leetcode should be the only litmus test for a candidate but Max is an outlier. Not every candidate getting rejected by a leetcode question is also capable of building out homebrew on their free time.
