When I interviewed with Triplebyte I had applied to actually become part of their staff. I was told I'd go through the standard process and then afterward we'd talk about what Triplebyte does in-depth and what the responsibilities would be. Guillaume was kind, engaging, and interested in how I approached a problem. The Australian dude (Buck) took over toward the end and he was very dismissive - he didn't seem to care what I said. It was kind of a let-down because I had crawled his online presence when researching Triplebyte and I was interested in asking him about his charity contributions. I had a good time talking to Harj about buckling-spring keyboards like my beloved Model M in the in-between moments.
I found out later I didn't pass the interview because my solution to the coding exercise didn't work at the end of the hour. We had continued past it and I thought I was safe because I was complimented on its organization and straight-forward interpretation. I finished it that night:

I had fun but I felt like they got more out of it than I did.
