    I would have killed for more of these estimation problems during my GOOG interview. I only got one of them to answer. The interviewer really liked my answer to it, then, in successive gauntlets, all I got were practical questions related to executive technical support (which I don't have much/any experience in), and flubbed it. Ask me the theoretical shit about golf balls in a bus, plz!!! #googleinterview

    @Don Nguyen: At the time, I would have much preferred any sort of job and a paycheck, rather than the geek cred of a google interview.

    Thankfully, that was a long time ago, and it has all worked out since then. #googleinterview

    Well to be fair, even among people who are hired, it's very rare to answer the harder questions perfectly on the first try. Normally, the interviewer helps you along a bit if you're on the right track. #googleinterview

    This is math. Like all girls, I am bad at math. Unlike all girls, I neither smell nor have cooties. I can relate to girls and am better than them.

    I should be hired by Google to be in charge of girls. #googleinterview

    @Galaxius: These are questions to test your IQ. They're testing you to see if you're a genius. If you're not then they're not interested.

    I wonder if you can just have your computer ready when they call and google whatever they ask you. But I think they're actually more interested in how you get to your answer than the actual answers. #googleinterview

    @Noobs-R-Us: Most of these types of questions get asked in the real interviews and not the phone ones. Usually the phone interviews are just to get more of your background before they think about bringing you in. #googleinterview

    Clearly the only way to resolve the science vs. religion/conservatism argument is to create an army of cloned Jesus... Jesuses... Jesi? Finally, we will all be united by this most holy of blasphemies. #syntheticbiology

    If you're on this site you probably agree with 95-100% of what Specter is talking about.

    Why people try to hinder any kind of progress is beyond me. Instead of the old "If it ain't broke" mentality....we should always be thinking..."How can we make this better" Everything has room for improvement! #syntheticbiology

    Well I graduated last December with a degree in Electrical Engineering and I cant find a job to save my life, so we may need more engineers and scientists, but we need more jobs for those people first.
