When I went to Montana it would alternate between central and mountain time. Nothing seemed to fix it. I just installed the 2.0.2 update, but since I'm not planning on being in Montana for a while (at least) I won't be able to test it. Mine had a time problem too.

]]> Comment on Interviews on Trivia by jessica http://www.monkeyatlarge.com/archives/2008/04/07/interviews-on-trivia/#comment-5363 jessica Fri, 11 Apr 2008 16:19:43 +0000 http://www.monkeyatlarge.com/?p=253#comment-5363 This sort of stuff works when you're interviewing to be a doctor, because most of it is memorizing things anyway, it's not like someone's going to throw a sick person in front of you and you get to try out different approaches until you find a solution that compiles and runs smoothly. Unless you're Dr. House. But that kind of makes me afraid of going on interviews because I'm totally not good at that useless trivia crap (like the "what does the volatile keyword mean" question that Eben always asked people) and I sure as heck hope people don't take that to mean that you aren't a decent programmer.
