The first three paragraphs of the linked article talk about an attack on two federal security officers in Oakland and the pipe bombs that were used against sheriff's deputies attempting to arrest the suspect - a suspect who "had scrawled boog, along with various boogaloo slogans, in his own blood on the hood of a car"

I think in many cases "random hoops" are useful in interviews - they show that you can modify your solution to accomodate unforeseen problems, and make sure you know the full scope of the problem (by asking questions about it) before jumping in with a solution.


If the actual job involved solving random problems in an instant, then these tests would make sense. As they are, they're really just statements of power: I have a job, you want a job, so I can make you jump through this hoop. I am great! Look at my little fiefdom.


Emails from Network Solutions were included in the backup of the site. Apparently it's their policy to suspend sites for 10 days after receiving a counter-DMCA notice and reinstate the site after 14 days if they haven't been served with a lawsuit.

Edit: the mirror is at http://cryptomeorg.siteprotect.net/

and the email to MSFT from Network Solutions says: "Attached please find a Counter-Claim Notification received from John Young of www.cryptome.org on this date. We note that pursuant to the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”) we will reactivate the Web site following the allotted time frame (not less than 10 and no more than 14 business days) unless we receive notice of litigation."
