Is there a point in the log where there is a time cutoff for a viewer of a page? By that I mean: in your sample user A goes B > C > D, then there is a view by a different user, and then we are back to user A. What if the time difference between user A going to page E is like 10 minutes...is that a new pattern?

I feel like this is a fun thought experiment, but instead of thinking about "gotchas" I would be more open to having a discussion about edge cases, etc... The connotation of gotchas just seems to be like a trap where if you hit one, you've failed the interview.



The “gotchya” isn’t a way to fail the interview. But for candidates that ask about that edge case right away they get extra points.
