Last week, we hosted the latest Netflix Hack Day. Hack Day is a way for our product development teams to get away from everyday work. It's a fun, experimental, collaborative, and creative outlet.
This time, we had about 70 hacks that were produced by more than 150 engineers and designers. We shared a few examples below to give you a taste, and you can see some of our past hacks in our posts for Feb. 2014 & Aug. 2014. Note that while we think these hacks are very cool and fun, they may never become part of the Netflix product, internal infrastructure, or otherwise be used beyond Hack Day. We are surfacing them here publicly to share the spirit of the event.
Thanks to all of the hackers for putting together some incredible work in just 24 hours. If you’re interested in being a part of our next Hack Day, let us know by checking out our jobs site!

Net the Netflix Cheats
Don’t let your partners watch when you aren't around. Net the Netflix Cheats requires dual PIN access to watch titles that you and your partner have agreed to watch together.
