| 02:28.55 | ZorbaTHut | noshei, I don't think most of them have VPN access |
| 02:29.15 | ZorbaTHut | and it really wouldn't work very well if they did, having them available to reproduce stuff is valuable |
| 02:31.00 | Noshei | that makes sense |
| 02:31.21 | Noshei | looks like they have QA openings at both locations right now |
| 02:31.43 | Noshei | I submitted my resume for the redwood one, though I would have to move. |
| 02:32.16 | ZorbaTHut | it's one of the best game QA departments I've heard of, for what it's worth |
| 02:33.11 | ZorbaTHut | the RWC QA position is going to be mostly games, the Austin QA position is going to be tools, patchers, websites, and the likes |
| 02:33.42 | Noshei | yeah, figured |
| 02:34.07 | Noshei | I have 0 experience with game development, but some testing experience in alphas and beta's |
| 02:34.31 | Noshei | and almost 7 years of experience as a systems admin, so that may be helpful. |
| 02:34.37 | ZorbaTHut | the only real game-specific stuff needed is a reasonable intuitive understanding of what's "working" and what's "broken" |
| 02:34.59 | ZorbaTHut | from there it's mostly the ability to write good repro steps and, y'know, get stuff done |
| 05:01.53 | Ivnedar | I'd get frustrated hitting a wall I can't see through when tracking an issue |

| 17:23.34 | seebs | What Zorba said about perforce's storage format is disturbing. |
| 17:24.20 | Imhothar1 | what's that? |
| 17:36.06 | ZorbaTHut | yeah it's pretty surprisingly awful. I *think* they store metadata in actual databases, though, and use the giant flat file tables just for storing the actual revisions |
| 17:36.20 | ZorbaTHut | still, if there's any sort of revision diff support, it's not visible in my repository |
| 17:57.51 | Noshei | dont forget to vote! |
| 18:11.58 | seebs | Hmm. Does the XML not list the category stuff? |
| 18:12.08 | Noshei | it does not |
