    Did you mean to write “job description” instead of “escape room concept”?

    As someone who has lived this scenario, I feel comfortable concluding there isn’t any escape. If you fail, the problem will still be there later. If you succeed, you have now become an expert on the problem and we be called upon to handle it again later when it manifests in a different way

    I actually had something similar to this. It’s impossible. That “hour” ended up being two weeks while sleeping under my desk. But hey I got a “you saved the company!” … hat. Yep, hat. #neveragain

    i had a similar idea for a video game. the idea was that you have to solve a problem or penetrate a server in limited time. you would’ve to capture the flag by sql injecting a server or get the output of a bugged code that you have to fix.
