Have a calm discussion with them, make it in-depth technical but also talk to them in a friendly manner. No need for take-home tests or leetcodes, and no need to be a robot also. Why can't it be as simple as that?

I'm 6 years into this "career" (more like a job than a career but anyway) and now I'm coding probably 4 hours per day. It wasn't that different in the beginning though.

It looks like "ai generated" is the problem.

You mean in the US, right? Still hard to believe.

It matters because it feels better.

A person that loves this one must be a total degenerate, and it looks like IQ doesn't correlate with that.

Intelligence is a broader term, of course there are no such tests, only IQ ones... which is to say, i was kind of kidding. But I do despise this culture of total degeneracy nevertheless.

Any measurement of an adults intelligence should include a test to determine how highly they think of this billionaire creep.

I've spent about 2 years cumulatively doing absolutely nothing at "work".

There was a funny case where I was assigned to a project that had almost no work and no meetings at all. And in another case I was in a dev support team as a junior, where we had meetings but it didn't matter at all what we were reporting, nobody cared if it took you two months or more for a simple bug.

So yeah I think I have some amusing experiences.

It's funny because arguably you achieve less safety routing your traffic through someone else's servers.

VPN isn't exactly supposed to provide safety though.

Wait, do you just tell it "please be more concise" to whatever you ask of it?

Should we cry now or something?
