"Well, your interviews went quite well. Now the final question: what would you do if you start losing your mind?"
"I'd like you to write a graph algorithm that traverses the abyss, the cosmic horror that consumes one's mind, that traverses twilight to the rim of morning, that sees the depths of man's fundamental inability to comprehend.
Oh ya, the markers in here are pretty run down, let me pray to the old ones for some more"
I have written the algorithm you requested - but I wish I hadn’t run it. I hit ctrl-c when I realized what it was doing but it was too late... The damage is done — we are left with only the consequences and fallout.
Forgotten dreams like snowflakes melt on hot dusty ground, soon to turn into hard dry mud beneath a bitter polluted sky.
Pretty sure I was asked that question in an Amazon interview.
