I assume you read the title and decided to insert your valuable input.

I would have entered, but sadly if my company catches me do that, they will have the same reaction as the guy above. .-.

It's not "illegal" hacking. It's hacking as in open source hacking. Programming problem solving. There's a practice page so you can see the types of questions they ask

Facebook's term of hacking is programming new ideas and products. They have hackathon's at the company where everyone stays up all night hacking.

Should be fun anyway
