Pizza comes divided into equally sized slices, geez, the variable is the amount of pepperoni. You big/little slice thing does figure out the solution those, the high-pepperoni slices are "big in spirit" as they say. Beef turret got it first. my new pizza franchise will feature a webapp where you can draw the slices you want in an mspaint gui and we will make that pizza for you

Beef Turret posted:The pepperoni strat is to number every slice from 1-8 and count the total number of pepperoni on the evens and odds, then from the parity with the most total pepperoni pick the one slice with the most pepperoni on it so the other guy gets a worse deal This was the actual solution? Its so dry and obvious. Where's the thinking outside the box? The pizza question is no turning a condom inside out let me tell you.

Step 1: Shove 7 balls up the interviewer's rear end (don't use a condom) and push them in really deep using a pepperoni (again no condom), say remaining ball is the heavy one. Step 2: Cut the pepperoni 70/30 and give him the small part

These are good points, someone I work with actually recently told me about someone he knows who works at Facebook who basically lives at the Facebook office and sleeps in an RV They don't let him park the RV overnight so he has to drive it to a random parking lot somewhere else

Jeffrey of YOSPOS posted:You can't do that - the pizza is a circle and you only get a free choice on the first slice. After that, there are always two edges, and both pizza eaters always have two choices until the last slice remaining. you have ordered a half-half pizza with someone who thinks seafood is an attractive topping.

I'm sure it's been answered, but it's two steps: Weigh three balls against three, take the three that weigh least and weigh two of those against each other. It's the lightest one, unless they're equal in which case it's the unweighed ball. Obv if the two threesomes weigh equal, weigh the two unweighed balls. Here's one of my favorite riddles: Which weighs more: A pound of feathers or a pound of gold? And before one of those "mommy told me I'm smart so I think I am even though I'm not" people chimes in with "a pound is a pound," just know that you are wrong and shouldn't post that.

rakovsky maybe posted:You have eight balls and a set of scales. Seven of the balls weigh identically, the eighth is heavier. Using the fewest steps possible, how do you find the heavy ball? Simply ask the interviewer which ball it is. or As long as you don't walk anywhere it will take no steps.

The real answer is zero. If the ball is actually noticeably heavier then you just pick up the balls until you find one that's heavier than the rest.

I had a buddy interview at a really small IT start-up and one of the guys on the panel tried to pull some dumb question like this and he said "is this supposed to test how I deal with difficult questions under pressure, or do you honestly expect a serious answer?" and the guy looked him squarely in the eye and said "I have never been more serious about anything in my life." So my buddy called him 'The Riddler' and went to leave and the guy chased him and tried to get him to come back and eventually admitted that he was the only person who had agreed to come in for an interview.
