Fizz Buzz in Tensorflow

This whole thing is making fun of asking fizz-buzz to a senior programmer, but yet I've found it to be one of the best phone screen questions possible. For someone who is truly a senior programmer, they knock it out in about 30 seconds and we move on. For the ones who pretend to be senior programmers on their resume, it trips them up and I know right away that their resume is either a pack of lies or their…

I know people consider it condescending if they are actually a competent programmer. However as a person that has done hiring I can't tell you how many people have a CS degree that they supposedly attended school and passed(as in their credentials check out) but can't even do the FizzBuzz test. Once time for fun I used one of those online code collaboration tools. I had a couple of "programmers" that were still actively working on the Fizzbuzz question 4…

Hilarious! From the comments: "I think I count 0.90 fizz-accuracy, and 0.99 buzz-accuracy. So it's clearly harder to teach fizzing than buzzing." The real machine learning that takes place in an interview is to develop an expertise model for your interviewer as quickly as possibly from their general demeanor and comments. You should then generate answers that are 90% within that limit (to generate sense of comfort and rightness) and 10% above (to generate awe).
