From the Hacker News discussion
Skimmed the YouTube video of his google talk to find when he answered the bubble sort question - it's at @23:16 ( [VIDEO] ) Did we expect him to answer like a prospective google hire? A modified quick sort thats guarded not to recurse too many levels deep to avoid any stack overflow errors? I'm impressed that he made an effort to connect at the techie-level. I think the intent of the tech-savvy staffers who briefed him was like when a comedian makes a reference to the Yankees while performing in NYC
Read original comment ↗Does anyone not remember the candidates' interviews at Google? [VIDEO] The Barack Obama one was likely the most viewed, as he was relatively unknown then. Interesting the answers he gave and the state of politics and regulation 8+ years afterwards.
