I've had this happen a few times recently while conducting #softwareengineering interviews. The candidate says they have experience in Java, but decides not to use it for the coding test because it's "too verbose" (fair) or they "don't want to deal with the syntax". 1/4

If he salutes like a Nazi and endorses like a Nazi -- he might just be a Nazi.

Silly dev story: a while back I needed to log into some HR portal at work to update an address or something. I created the account when I joined the company; this was the first time using it since then. I opened the site, entered my creds and hit the button. "Incorrect email/password". 1/6 #devsky
