Jeff himself said, rather horrified when people started posting solutions to FizzBuzz:
> FizzBuzz was presented as the lowest level of comprehension required to illustrate adequacy. There's no glory to be had in writing code that establishes a minimum level of competency. Even if you can write it in five different languages or in under 50 bytes of code.
> The whole point of the original article was to think about why we have to ask people to write FizzBuzz. The mechanical part of writing and solving FizzBuzz, however cleverly, is irrelevant. Any programmer who cares enough to read programming blogs is already far beyond such a simple problem. FizzBuzz isn't meant for us. It's the ones we can't reach-- the programmers who don't read anything-- that we're forced to give the FizzBuzz test to.
I think that mentioning it as a skill (unless it's in jest), seriously hurts anyone's chances at being taken seriously. Exactly like someone would be dubious if their carpenter said "I can definitely make that cabinet for you. Hell, I can screw and unscrew!"
