An anonymous reader writes "Google has previously used coding competitions to locate
top talent. In a new twist on the idea, an anonymous tech company is
posting a help-wanted ad that challenges
developers to find out who the company is. A little digging and text mashing reveals
a website containing a Web 2.0 puzzle that makes notpron look like child's play.
So, fellow developers, who is this company, and, well, what is the
significance of the date "1-18-08 " ?" Link to Original Source

So, I'm feeling pretty dumb on this test...
Like, I guess, the green bar up top, tells you when you get one right. But what's the blue bar down below do? When you run your function it goes away -- unless you put a number in to the field above it, then a small blue square shows up? Also, text just disappears from that field. wtf?
Here's the contact info (spoiler warning) (Score:2)
{ ':' => '', ' ' => '-', 's\n' => 's.com\n' }
Apply that to the subject in the contact details. You get:
http://wanted-master-software-developers.com/ [wanted-mas...lopers.com]
That was pretty easy. The test then seems to move to web programming and I'm not interested.
