Wanted: Master Software Developers?
Dec. 22nd, 2007 09:44 pmSomebody's out there looking for "master software developers" - and they've concocted a pretty tricky set of puzzles to find them. I think.
( More details than anyone ever wanted to know )
I first saw this referenced on the Extreme Programming Yahoo! group, and the test-driven development bit got my attention. A bit of judicious Googling found the backstory to date.
To sum things up, it's an interesting collection of puzzles. And presumably whoever's putting this thing on is looking for agile developers, who practice TDD, collaborate with each other, and are otherwise remarkably like me.
But that's an awfully large number of hoops to ask someone to jump through just to find "real" contact information. Besides, why would I want to move to Denver?
