I think its time for the federal government to get involved, and it already has leverage

If your company benefits or plans to benefit from QSBS tax treatment, then evaluate engineers on things they’ll be doing in the company:

the application development process, sprint ceremonies, asynchronous communication and tooling

they wont be implementing data structures often, and if they are reinventing the wheel they are wasting company time, if your company needs a more efficient data structures for its super scalable problem - it should trigger a process audit to be honest.

I don't understand how QSBS has anything to do with interview practices. Are you saying the IRS should somehow audit any QSBS company to make sure they're not implementing any data structures or algorithms? Like, new companies must be audited if they try to use computer science?

Control behavior by regulating the intermediary, constitutional under any governance system, my favorite approach to anything is to look at what the thing relies on, and controlling access to that thing.

We can even add whistleblower bounties to current and prospective employees. The IRS already has a bounty program, probably doesn't even need Congress for this one. Its under the Treasury Department right? Can probably still Scott Bessent on linkedin about implementing it on Day 1

So, yes. You got it. Play devil’s advocate all you want, I’m ready. More likely you’ll have to put your reservations in during the comment period.

"Let's effectively prohibit all non-CRUD apps" that's hilarious. "If your startup needs to solve hard computer problems, you're going to get an IRS audit". wild. It's like the 90s cryptography export laws, except it applies to domestic development too!

it can promote training employees again instead of “screening against false negatives” or whatever dumb interviewing rationale needs to be eradicated

2025 lets go, new administration is up for anything and has no clue what theyre doing

The center is unguarded I bet I could get the 119th congress to pass anything since all the moneyed interests went to far extremes of their parties and will never get their causes passed the filibuster
