My answers to over 100 Google interview questions

##Google Interview Questions: Product Marketing Manager

  • Why do you want to join Google? -- Because I want to create tools for others to learn, for free. I didn't have a lot of money when growing up so I didn't get access to the same books, computers and resources that others had which caused money, I want to help ensure that others can learn on the same playing field regardless of their families wealth status or location.
  • What do you know about Google’s product and technology? -- A lot actually, I am a beta tester for numerous products, I use most of the Google tools such as: Search, Gmaill, Drive, Reader, Calendar, G+, YouTube, Web Master Tools, Keyword tools, Analytics etc.
  • If you are Product Manager for Google’s Adwords, how do you plan to market this?
  • What would you say during an AdWords or AdSense product seminar?

The case for deadlines

The case for deadlines

Rust aims to be the foundation of fast and robust software. A thorn in that side is the choice of timeout-centric APIs for I/O and multithreading. I posit this was a bad choice and it needs to be remedied as soon as possible before more APIs proliferate this (possibly accidental) design decision.

Motivating example: time limited network client request

Task: connect to a remote server, send a request, receive response with an end-to-end timeout of 10 seconds.
