Having to interview a number of people for development jobs at various points of my life, I found that one of the most valuable questions I asked was "What is a pointer?".<p>My best guess is that at least 60-70% of the people I interviewed who listed C or C++ experience on their resume were completely unable to give a coherent answer.
Considering that after Ksplice acquired Oracle, Waseem founded another startup that got acquired and now works for Dropbox, I wonder if that email address at the bottom still works.
