Earlier quoted context omitted.
Not exactly sure if you're being sarcastic or not. But I am for the wining and dining part, accompanied by a good interview it can be fun. The other 12 parts can be skipped.

#15What is the idea? They just have it up to find that one 0.1% developer that happens to walk through the door?
I can't imagine companies simply want to wait to roll out features they are planning to build in such a dynamic market. Something you think of today is launched by your competitor tomorrow. If you have an unfilled vacancy for two months more stuff will be rolled out two months later.
