I had a crazy interview question at Google I failed a decade ago. Turns out it was from a PHD thesis. I really hate this questions. It's just stupid.

I think it makes sense. You don't need to be familiar with every data structure to research them.

No I'm referring to them having open discussions about their logic for continuing to receive funding. They don't really do "explanations" with regards to their own operations, general it is a discussion about what is goi

The absentee boss thing is real across the industry right now. What are these managers doing? Consulting? Working other jobs? They are certainly not engaged at work.
