It seems to me you're on a irc-hate rampage. There are many devs who |
| 14 |
rarely, if ever, go on irc. The _only_ requirement is that you conduct |
| 15 |
a real-time interview with a recruiter. It's sort of like a job |
| 16 |
interview only it's remote. Once you're a dev you don't have to go on |
| 17 |
irc _at all_. It's not going to kill you to do two reviews on irc, |
| 18 |
especially given the advantages various people have presented for a |
| 19 |
real-time interview. |
