Now he's saying that he wants people to fly in to present their code to him by midnight.

On the Friday before Thanksgiving.

Into one of United's big hubs.

With 14 hours notice.

And a lot of cold fronts over the eastern seaboard.

Likely more like 10 hours with travel times and the line of potential people that are presenting.

I'm honestly gobsmacked.

Look, if you're on of those engineers and are unfortunate enough to have to go through this insane reapplication for your job on ~1/2 day's notice, then I think you owe it to the poor people that are trying to fly in to drag this thing out as long as possible and stall, Stall, STALL.
