Find customer sales timeseries whose moving averages have positive slope, except the average should only be over two days, and the lead day changes, and actually it should be (customer, day) pairs, or triples with total sales, we're not sure actually what we want but it's definitely a very complicated SQL query. No. More complicated. What do you mean "use pandas?" Pandas and SQL are the same thing. SQL is column-oriented. I've never heard of KDB. That's something you made up.

The interviewer asked about random forest and how it works. When I said that each decision tree in the forest considers a random subset of features, he disrespectfully interrupted me and told me that I am wrong. Then he scolded me for giving the "wrong" answer.
