Posted by ScuttleMonkey on from the will-code-for-food dept.

Ember writes "The results of Google Code Jam are in. The winner is Marek Cygan from Warsaw University. Second prize goes to Erik-Jan Krijgsman from University of twente (Holland) and third to Pyotr Mitritchew from Moscow State University." Registration for the event took place back in July and Google reported a total of 14,500 registrants which is almost twice as many as last year, making for some stiff competition.

    .... was this a contest or a recruitment tool? After all, you get 14,500 people to submit code in a structured contest and you could likely find a few dozen new Google employees in the bunch.

    I just shit my pants at the hilarity of that comment!

    Oh wait, actually, nevermind. There's absolutely nothing funny about it at all.

    What the fuck is wrong with you mods? Is this some sort of obscure "hot grits"-like reference that only the 31337 can grok?
