Google relies on writing syntactically correct code in a google doc with no autocomplete/auto indenting during their interviews. The cognitive load of this plus having to answer very difficult obscure algorithmic questions was too foreign from my normal workflow and too heavy of a cognitive load for me to be able to answer the question accurately in the time given. I hope they don't build production code this way.

Now I'm just imagining an april fools event where they replace the really nice internally hosted code editor with google docs, disable code search, and call it interview awareness day.
