ctps: ternary operators are tricky to parse

i once had to manage some php where it was all written using nested ternary operators instead of boring old "if" and "else". also, the nested ternaries were always on one line, stretching hundreds and hundreds of characters over the horizon :allears:

thinking about doing a Live Coding Exercise for a job i'm not terribly interested in and the recruiter just told me "they've asked the ping pong ball question before" and I was like haha what? "yeah like how many ping pong can you fit in a school bus"

what should i say to these bozo idiots when they ask me some cargo culted google interview question from last decade

you could point out that google has found those questions aren't at all good for identifying skilled candidates. probably better to just go along with them, though

I'm still confused as to whether a 6.5 figgies salary is strictly 500k or if it's 150k with people being loose with their decimal discipline
