This is exactly right. Been seeing this a lot, especially in the last five years.

Most of my tech interview strategy has adapted to weed out candidates that are imposters.

I do not think I have ever felt imposter syndrome, in all honesty. Do most people honestly feel this?

+1. This is a very good and well-rounded response.

I might add that for tech engineering of any type, getting a BS in Computer Science (from a reputable school) is insanely helpful in the long run if there is an interest in going further in your career and it does not lock a person into one particular track.

The Hebrew use of chiasms is what first convinced me that a lot of hyperliteralist interpretations of the Torah were just ignorant.

A person cannot intentionally convert a story into a poetic structure without also distorting its literalness.

And the contemporary readers of the time would have known this as well.

Some useful insights for sure.

Although some programmers care about both product and code and know how to balance it: based on the budget.

Code-first programmers might have not had to face a deadline and a company running out of money. Not all of them are like this, but if you find yourself in this camp, I encourage joining a startup with some eyeballs into the finances as a way to balance that tendency to infinitely nitpick over small code details.

I swear the more progressive San Francisco becomes the worse and worse every aspect of life becomes in that city.

Why has it become shameful to simply say indulging yourself with calories is a personal choice that has consequences?

It boggles my mind we need “science” to tell us this stuff that is frankly just common sense that has been beaten down by pop culture.

I moved my entire family onto it easily. But they are fairly conservative and so it simply was a matter of explaining the situation about big tech lying and they were sold.

Are you a fundamentalist Christian? You kindof sound like one.
