In the tech world, live coding interviews are very prevalent but but also terribly inaccurate proxies for assessing potential team members. Better than dead coding interviews, I guess?
Brevity is not his thing though

As someone who changed job on average every 2 years for the last 20 years, I have been in heaps of interviews.
And I can confidently state that succeeding at job interview is a skill that is only remotely related to being a skilful programmer or a great team player...
In a few (sad?) words, most job interviews have little to do with your work as a programmer, and a lot to do with selling yourself with charm and (warranted or not) confidence.
The only, possibly, technically relevant interview I had was online for EA when they gave me a few days to write a small program, and then we had online interview, talking about it and other stuff....

It's interesting that most jobs say they value being a team player but few interviews actually attempt to measure this. Admittedly it's not very easy to tease this out upfront but most don't even try. They're focused on tech tests and such.

I was going to comment on that, but then I remembered the KSS rule  
On a serious note, if it really works as they creators expect... Kudos. That might really make a difference for some people.

The lady in the trailer seems to have use of her arms, considering she was holding them on top of her head.
Why was she included in the video?
We all know that most new technology is um, fleshed out shall we say, by the more prurient sectors of the economy so I guess why she made that particular reference.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
I’m begging you for the benefit of everyone, don’t be STUPID.

While I'm not sure if/how serious this is due to an apparent omission: tongue controlled cursors have been a thing in accessibility devices (primarily for quadriplegics) for a number of years. Innovation supporting that market is always appreciated; even if this proves a commercial flop anything attempting to go for that market should be far cheaper than devices whose makers are pricing them to gouge medical and disability insurance providers.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, weighing all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?

It’s probably a good idea to disable Edge’s follow creator feature until this privacy issue is fixed. Doesn't "leaking" imply it's by accident?
