I already wrote a small program that takes a live rendered 3d cube with opengl in c++, pipes the rgb data of that into ffmpeg, ffmpeg writes and constantly updates the m3u8 and the ts files for HLS (to a ram drive mount), then a rsync command under watch to constantly upload them to a public html so it can be accessed as a live video stream of the local cube rendering.

This got me the interview "however" I have never done anything with docker aside from run their 'hello world' program. I got Docker running on the machine after some kernel recompiling. Does anyone have any suggestions on what I should practice / tutorialize with docker before the interview?

Thanks!!

Edit: 10,000%'d it. Might be writing ya'lls weather channel streaming code soon.

I was part of an interview panel where the interviewee had a gay pride flag in the background. I said no, as did 3 of the other 4 interviewers. (The HR lady said yes.)

That is to say it isn't wise to inject politics into an interview. Stick with your skills and experience, and be able to tell them what you want out of the job. Also ask them why you should accept this role over others that are out there.

Also: Good luck!

Best advice so far. Always remember, you are interviewing them as well. Are these people the type you want to work for? Don't lose sight of that in the interview process.
