Hmm, in that case, wouldn't it be reasonable to try to somehow throw this extra object under you so that it breaks the surface tension before your fall?

These are not curveballs though. Nowadays it's just another category of interview questions - System Design. There are tons of resources to prepare for this type of questions just like with the Algorithms & Data Structures problems.
Writing the response from my 3200x1800 13.3" screen. High enough for my tastes.
This is hilarious
The vast majority of computers still only have 2 or 4 cores (in fact it has become impossible to find a 4 cores ultrabook, something that existed a few years ago - Vaio z series).
This is entrirely false. Intel i7 current generation models have 4 cores. Are you trying to say that it's hard to find an ultrabook with one of these chips?
I would support your statement as well. I know three languages: one as my native language, other as my country's only official language, and the last one (English) is my general purpose language, meaning I use at to surf web, to study books, to watch films/series, to code, etc..
Would I learn any other language if I would be born in English society and English family? Doubt it. Maybe some other mainstream language just for fun, but it wouldn't count as bilingual as I wouldn't push myself hard enough to learn it.
So... What happens if the interviewee doesn't go the way interviewer expects? Like, what if I answer with this:
bin(x ^ (x >> 1))
Most often interviewers get quite irritated if interviewer comes up with a much simplier and a faster solution than what was intended.Estonian: isa and ema
The biggest abuse in this game is that the ball can be pushed through the walls with enough lines drawn onto it
