This is a very good list. I especially like asking number 8. If they can't talk about something they were passionate about, then that's a red flag.

I also ask people to implement the Blum Mental Hash, which I heard about on NPR in 2014. It's easy enough to explain in five minutes or so, but difficult enough to write out in a half hour or so.
