@AlgoRythm Why not? Interviewing is fun.
-
@magicMirror and that guy/gal will probably get the job

@AllenII I should hope not. The worst combination in a dev personality is arrogance, backed up by real ability and knowlege. Other team members will hate his guts, and he will be impossible to manage. knowledge without arrogance, or arrogance without knowledege is usualy acceptable.

@magicMirror. I agree--I was assuming you were referring to knowledge rather than the possibilty of them being full of thenselves

Unless the FM Radio chip was disabled and not even detected by the kernel, one could make an app that gains root permissions and access the FM Radio chip. Then it would be a matter of receiving data from it and re routing audio to the specified output. Also, make the user unable to use the app if there's no headphones connected! (Evil laugh!)

@calmyourtities Uhm, nah, I don't think that would work, unless you can make the phone output sound from a Microphone. You could make an input device though.

@calmyourtities Its kind of weird that you're making up stories just to rant. That's really not the point, man.
When a mobile dev says he knows phones inside out:
"Most phones come with a built-in, disabled FM radio chip, if I needed you to build an app that enables the chip and uses it, how would you do that?"
Not relevant really, but it's always fun to stump people who act stuck-up and smart. I'd never ask this question to someone who was nervous and/or humble.
