when I got to 100 lines and then clicked "Compile", I needed to select text to scroll down, your lightbox needs something like overflow:auto to bring up scrollbars.
likewise, google account means a bounce for me even though I've got one, try to delay showing that
was a bit disappointed with the end result - just shows two green boxes, when I really wanted to see the metrics page from your promo video (http://www.interviewstreet.com/recruit/) (that demo is also too well hidden imo).
A little more in the program description would help, specifically IRL I'll know a rough target time and how this thing is likely to be used (eg. repeatedly, with mostly small numbers, etc.)
Also, the UI is annoying, split into 3 vertical panes: Problem | Code editor | Compile Output
Also randomise the test cases...
int getNumberOfPrimes(int N) {
return N == 100 ? 25 : 78498;
}
Ah. okay, got it. That was just to give an idea of how compile & test, etc. looked, didn't think it would have an impact on the site, my bad. Would put up a proper sample test. Thanks so much for your feedback.
Google login killed it for me. I didn't even try to look at more of your challenges.
The snippets of challenges on your homepage are almost entirely math problems. Math is an incredibly important part of software dev, but there's more than just math to software and your problems don't reflect that.
You overuse the word hacker. It's become a buzzword and you're perpetuating that problem.
And finally, your site is built on a flawed concept. Even if you fixed all of these problems, you didn't fix the core problem-- your business does the opposite of it's job because truly great """hackers""" won't jump through these hoops just for the hope of getting an interview.
This is just my opinion, of course. I sincerely wish you the best of luck with your business, but it definitely isn't for me.
Hi Mtogo, got it! We're in the process of launching real-world problems just like the reddit jobs page [http://www.reddit.com/r/blog/comments/fjgit/reddit_is_doubli...] which is not only more than math problems, but more than algorithm challenges itself.
We're adding twitter auth / Fb connect as well. Is there a particular reason, why you don't like Google auth?
