[R] Stupidest ways people have solved coding interviews

Posting interesting/cool/funny videos from Loops here

Discussion of and questions about Loops should go over in !loops@lemmy.world
If the loop you're posting isn't original content uploaded by the creator, prefix the title with ♻️
or [R]
(if you don't feel like typing an emoji) for "reposted". For example, ♻️ Cute dog
or [R] Cute dog
.
Note that some loopers upload their loops to multiple platforms including Loops, so you might see insta/tiktok logos on videos that aren't marked as reposts.
If you know the source for a loop marked ♻️
/[R]
, please comment with it!
Rules:
That sort is pretty bonkers. I agree with the no hire because it doesn’t really display an understanding but if I got that as an answer in a technical interview, it would be fun to dive into why that code was written and might turn into a hire if we peer just a bit deeper under the hood of the thinking. This is why “solve for x” technical questions suck unless you make the actual interview about the back and forth. Assume a correct premise if it works and tweak and change and poke and prod to really sus out if they understand what and why that was written.
