<div class="IPBDescription">Aiiiiie!</div> So an engineer from nVidia is going to be calling me in 40 minutes to conduct an hour interview for an internship position this summer. I've wanted to intern there for quite a while, and I'm scared twitching right now. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

Good luck!
Heh IIRC people dared MonsE to wear a Tux shirt to his Microsoft interview <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->
And good luck with the interview. Hope you get the job so you can... uh... *not* steal SLI 6800GTs for the entire NS Forums <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

GL.
Try to compromise between showing off and being modest,
Sit down!
Don't let anyone distract you; find a quiet room with a comfy chair. Never conduct interviews over the phone standing up.
That obivous advice asside, you'll do fine I'm sure. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

It also helps to sit in front of your computer with the page set to Google.com
Instant +3 to INT.

You might be interested to know that if you are trying to pick a random location for the position of a dimple on an orange, you can get a perfectly uniform distribution by picking a random height and picking a random longitude. <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
(Note for anyone interning for something technical in the future. Look up your interviewer and see if you can find their thesis online <!--emo&;)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/wink-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> )
Its interesting how they do their card design. They first code up what they are trying to implement in C++, then they translate that into hardware instructions, which are then translated into hardware.
I'd be doing the C++ coding at the top.
Ohnoes here comes the flame.
Something to do with Organges at least.
Well maybe moult can convince them to make some better products...
Nice job with the nvidia thingy <!--emo&::nerdy::--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/nerd-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='nerd-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
Yeah I love it too!

If you've read a lot of EEK's earlier post you'll find that he hates nvidia, and I agree with him on that.

...although not to that extent?
At least now we have an agent on the inside. <!--emo&:p--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/tounge.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='tounge.gif' /><!--endemo-->

So in a few months NS will run nicer on GeForce based cards? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
I think the point is that they are interviewing moultano, not vice versa...
.. I think I may have just spammed... oh dear... Gwahir spammed.... something is not right here... am I me?

He means when moult gets in.
Ask them what they think about why is there such a performance drop 3dMark05 and Half-Life 2, against their arch rivals ATi.
