Comment Re:anyone noticed the snide arrogance? (Score 1) 373

Reading comprehension would not lead me to the same place you have gone. When I read his comment there is no indication of what would happen after he receives a decent answer. This is not a low-bar barrier-to-entry, this is a "get the people wasting my time out of my office as quick as possible" barrier to entry. I would assume, though there was no indication either way, that this person would have more in his interview than this question.

You are acting like they will only make one calculation and go with it. You keep talking about this 21%, when the accuracy measurements, (until they find a way to make it more accurate) would require confidence testing on the numbers before input into as an answer into your program. Not that I think they'll be happy with doing it that way. But for now, it'll give you the accuracy necessary to get the job done right.

As for WOW, bugger subscriptions, they are just too annoying, you know, oh no, I must play because I am paying for it and it will run out and I will lose my stuff unless I continue to pay and play, really steals your choice of whether to play or not.

This is uninformed. You don't lose stuff even if you cancel your subscription and come back later.

You know, I'd have supported your position if you hadn't "fixed" the first line. I don't steal content but I do use file-sharing services to pick up things that would normally be free because the bit torrent and similar download algorithms make for a much faster download than one would get through normal methods.

I don't think he was fighting you on the main portion of your argument, but rather pointing out that losing the ability to drive is not comparable in any way to losing your internet access with this company. Mainly for the reason that you have to be proven incapable of driving well as opposed to getting disconnected based on circumstantial evidence or hearsay alone.
