The only thing I'd add to this compendium of bad interview questions is having the pirates find the breaking point for the wine bottles by dropping two of them from a 20 story building. :)

Jeff Atwood's puzzle: "A hundred prisoners are each locked in a room with three pirates, one of whom will walk the plank in the morning. Each prisoner has 10 bottles of wine, one of which has been poisoned; and each pirate has 12 coins, one of which is counterfeit and weighs either more or less than a genuine coin. In the room is a single switch, which the prisoner may either leave as it is, or flip. Before being led into the rooms, the prisoners are all made to wear either a red hat or a blue hat; they can see all the other prisoners' hats, but not their own. Meanwhile, a six-digit prime number of monkeys multiply until their digits reverse, then all have to get across a river using a canoe that can hold at most two monkeys at a time. But half the monkeys always lie and the other half always tell the truth. Given that the Nth prisoner knows that one of the monkeys doesn't know that a pirate doesn't know the product of two numbers between 1 and 100 without knowing that the N+1th prisoner has flipped the switch in his room or not after having determined which bottle of wine was poisoned and what color his hat is, what is the solution to this puzzle?"
Good one, Jeff, but you forgot to say that the monkeys have a flashlight and they have to cross in 17 minutes...
One of these days I should find an east bay mechanic.

One of these days I should find an east bay mechanic. Phaedrus is hard to beat though... almost makes up for the bay bridge crossing...
Couldn't make this one, glad to see the community pushing forward on OpenSocial.

Interesting -- "Deprecate XML support - If we were building an API today, would we even support XML?"
It's mostly a focus issue -- The Opensocial "XML" format was a snowflake and didn't even have a proper schema. It's also part of a broader effort to mesh with established standards and reduce complexity.
(Also the pain of managing the XML/Atom code in shindig is a significant drag..)
I can imagine! Where would one look to get an overview of current real-world opensocial schemas? I mean a sense for what is actually used and useful? Anything that can feed into schema.org design discussions?
Since you mention it, we've talked about ideas for how to fit OpenSocial in with schema.org & microdata. But we haven't have the time to put any leg work into it.
Someday I hope to see Amanda Jones using G+ in addition to her Facebook and Twitter.

Someday I hope to see Amanda Jones using G+ in addition to her Facebook and Twitter. She did a photo shoot for us some years ago. She's a great animal photographer and I think she'd be a great part of the photography community over here.
Hi, Paul: I cannot find a place to report problems about Google Earth directly so lucky I know you. I have used basic version for a long time and about three months ago it just crashed on loading every time. I can still get to parts of it using Yahoo maps. I have tried reloading to no avail. Also what do you think of the new OS? We are now living in Bend Oregon for a change of scenery. We have Whole Foods, Costco and other useful stores plus a really good cardiology department (Don't laugh...this item will get on your list one day).
Regards, Paul.
