[00:04] paultag: my only concern is that you may be too awesome for facebook [00:05] I mean, I bet your nook rooting project doesn't broadcast anybody's private information [02:53] hmmm, makershed.com might be dangerous [03:00] mhall119: thanks :P [03:01] mhall119: interview went well, my recriter just called me and said that the responses were positive, and that they wanted another phone interview [03:01] not sure if that's good or not, I mean, on-site is supposed to be sorta a final thing [03:01] I'm wondering if I did not get some points off and they want to make sure I'm unfit [03:21] Fsck it. What happens happens. [03:43] jono: jcastro http://status.ubuntu.com/ubuntu-oneiric/canonical-community.html [03:45] paultag: could be that you passed the technical, and now they want to ask you some "work culture" questions [03:47] mhall119: I really hope so, I'm so burned out on interview questions, I Just want to build something, damnit [03:48] they didn't ask you the stupid "how would you calculate the number of gas stations in the city" did they? [03:48] mhall119: what *kills* me is that 5 minutes before that call I would have been real cocky about how well I did. Now, I'm shaken up and I don't know [03:48] mhall119: dude, so fucking many. Also these little pedantic fun questions [03:48] I hate those [03:49] there was this one that was nasty [03:49] took me a few minutes [03:49] that and the "do you know this obscure fact about some language on a certain hardware arch" [03:49] mhall119: aye. I much more dread the CS trick questions since that's what I do [03:49] and I'd much rather fail at something I'm not good at [03:50] I like to ask them to put the question in the form of an actual scenario [03:51] mhall119: truth [03:51] what was the nasty one? [03:51] or are you under an NDA on these [03:52] mhall119: I'm under an NDA for some of it. Hold on, let me see the paperwork [03:52] mhall119: no, we're clean. This is a common question and therefore not subject to the NDA, since it's "in the wild" through no fault of myself [03:52] was it "How would you go about collecting and broadcasting people's most private details while making them keep coming back to your service like addicts looking for a fix?" [03:53] or was that one under the NDA? [03:53] probably under the NSA [03:53] NDA [03:53] I can not confirm nor deny [03:54] mhall119: http://me.pault.ag/dft-nl [03:55] mhall119: given the data structure on the top, write a non-recursive function to print that result, without adding any data to the nodes, and in O(n) time [03:55] aw, cs stuff [03:55] mhall119: well yeah :) [03:56] mhall119: give it a hack, it's not too too bad [03:56] I got the first part (printing them out in order) in about 3 minutes, getting the newlines caused me trouble [03:56] I don't think I can give my solution, and I can not confirm that was the actual question they asked me [03:57] but if it's not, it's similar, I'd guess [03:59] can you put this in the form of an actual scenario? ;) [03:59] mhall119: nope :) [03:59] mhall119: I'm going to rm that file, just in case [03:59] then it's not really a problem is it? next [04:00] mhall119: it's a puzzle, and pullzes > problems [04:00] puzzles * [04:00] are they going to pay you to play with puzzles? [04:00] mhall119: yeah [04:00] (would love to answer interview questions like this) [04:00] mhall119: they do, actually :) [04:00] if we can figure out a puzzle, we've optimized something [04:01] and optimization is key [04:01] that's why O(n) is important, and not O(n!) [04:03] I need a massage [04:04] I need a cs class, apparently [04:05] or fewer, perhaps, as I can't stop thinking of recursion [04:05] mhall119: facebook and google are very CS heavy, which is good, but at the same time, it's not average [04:05] don't worry, most languages have this built in [04:06] .sort() does not need to have you go through it with big-O notation [04:06] true [04:07] I'm going to go back to moping around, I'm really bummed. I wonder why he said it was positive, seems like that can't be true [04:08] * mhall119 sends happy thoughts and optimism your way [04:08] mhall119: thanks man :) [04:08] I hope they call some of my 'refs for some love [04:10] paultag: did the algorithm have to work for any binary tree? [04:10] or just this one? [04:11] wait, is 5 a child of both 2 and 3? [04:11] mhall119: no, just 2 -- and any binary tree [04:11] ok, so 3 has only one child [04:11] unknown number of child nodes per depth [04:11] mhall119: right [04:13] yeah, I'm throwing in the towel on that [04:13] otherwise I'll be up all night [04:13] * mhall119 might anyway now :( [04:13] mhall119: solve this and I'll buy you a beer when we meet up [04:14] it's actually fun [04:15] the first part is fairly easy (and you can google for it, but that's cheating) [04:15] the second bit is a bit tougher, but still fun [04:41] mhall119: fiture it out yet? [04:41] sed s/fiture/figure/g [04:52] paultag: no, I'm distracting my brain [05:01] mhall119: :) [05:20] paultag: ! [05:20] paultag: How'd it go? [05:40] jono: you should see google doodle today ;) [07:01] cool [07:01] what does the red button do? [07:03] where do you see a red button?

One of the ideas was a competition for writing unity lenses. Thoughts? :) [21:21] I don't know what changes are coming for lenses in 11.10 [21:21] so I would lean towards something else as a competition [21:26] jcastro: okay, glad I asked you in that case.
