Having interviewed with TripleByte, I think this is a bold and poor decision.
Upfront, I didn't pass a TripleByte interview I had (one of the few companies I haven't passed).
My interviewer showed up late initially, then took a break and showed up 10 minutes late after the break. Further, the interviewer nit picked super irrelevant details, and acted exceedingly smug and condescending. Some of the stuff he told me I was wrong about was related to my research. Even after attempting to explain it several times, he just said, "No, you're wrong, you don't know what you are talking about."
I then literally brought up the paper and sent it to him, before he said something along the lines of... Oh, well I guess that is right.
Overall, it was one of the worst interview experiences I have had, and I don't believe they are good way to recruit. Hell, I even passed all their coding questions with flying colors. It was the silly video conferencing interview with a smug engineer who really made the interview fall apart.
