But why is this pleasantry about "luck" and not something else? You don't hear employers say "keep studying" or "we wish you a good effort" or "we hope you build cool stuff".

Isn't the employer referring to luck an admission from the employer that interviewing has a lot to do with luck?

What if, somehow, there was a guarantee that the code can't harm your machine -- would you use it then?

This isn't a joke.

One gains not needing to learn another language. I know C, I don't know Verilog or VHDL. I know how to debug C, I don't know how to debug Verilog.

If I can write a working C program, why can't I make working hardware?

I wonder if it were simpler for Uber to use RethinkDB instead of this complicated scheme they set up.

In the future please remove the words "Berlin, New York, Paris, LA" from your post. They conflict with search for positions in specific cities.

Since the position is in London, please only use London in the post.
