This headline is wrong. This has nothing to do with thermal cameras. It's "cloaking" by making it appear to have the same bulk thermal properties as it's surroundings.

I used to think this, then I realized that the amount of time you spend with equations is so much more than code, and the terseness makes them much easier to read once you know what the symbols are.

The purpose of a screening is not to determine competence, it is to determine whether recruit and company want to work together, which cannot be automated.
