This submission is surprisingly <i>not</i> satire, and misses the points of the arguments around whiteboard coding. (the added interview stress and the limited real-world applications of the code in day-to-day work)<p>It is <i>not</i> an accurate measure of candidate technical skill, hence the rise of take-home tests. (the submission reminds me of the blog post &quot;I Won&#x27;t Hire You If You Can&#x27;t Pass These Programming Questions Because Otherwise You Suck&quot; that was written awhile ago but I can no longer find. That post backfired hilariously because author provided the wrong solution for one of the questions.)
