"Mailpile had to write 1400 lines of python code just to interface with a native GnuPG installation for basic operations, and it still isn’t rock solid." But... 1400 lines of code is not that much.

If you only watched the video, you'd know, there is also a reputable scientist teaching both of the actors. Would you like to know whether that scientist is male or female? Does it matter? Go see the video.

You seem to be one of those "security people" Linus refers to. ;) Harm is relative. You security people think that every single security issue is so important that it doesn't matter what harm mitigating that may cause, it can

I think you have misunderstood the purpose of these tests. No, the process is not fucked up. There is no one right answer. It is CLEAR that the candidate cannot write perfect code in an interview. But it can still provide valuable data. Bas

Yes, I think it is fairly _realiable_. It reveals whether the candidate can't really write code. Again, the idea of the coding test in interviews is not to produce production quality code. It is testing that the candidate's brain

by kyberias 9y ago
Personally, I think that asking people to write code in interviews brings very _limited_ data. However, from my experience, it usually is also a very _strong_ signal. Narrow but strong. For example, if a candidate cannot implement a simple
