HELP i just bombed a live coding interview and it was a relatively easy question (print a 30x30 matrix in spiral form).. i talked out my solution and he said it made sense but when i actually needed to start coding. i just. BLANKED. i was coding in python and asked to switch to java bc i thought i'd know how to do it there. and then i ALSO BLANKED. COULDN'T INITIALIZE A 2D MATRIX IN PYTHON OR JAVA EVEN AFTER GOOGLING. cringe moment. do u have any live coding horror stories to make me feel better
i interviewed at vine and almost burst into tears because i forgot objective C. dont worry about it
i've interviewed people who this happened to and every time i've been 100% sympathetic and just wanted to help the person along. it's a safe bet your interviewer felt the same way. even if you don't get the job it's just because interviews suck ass sometimes. shit happens
the inverse of this, if you want to just get over coding exercise anxiety, apply for places you'd never work for. go through the interview rigamarole anyways. since you don't want the job the worst thing about it is you just have to burn a few hours doing something you don't want to do, rather than spending a few hours nervous as hell about getting the job
somehow i got to the last round interviewing at apple this way. i don't ever want to work for apple but i just applied to a bunch of apple jobs for practice. by the end of it i was like "well if apple will interview me i guess i'm not as dumb as i think" and it made the interviews for places where i want to work at lot less scary

back on topic i feel like i could write a paper about how the xfiles is essentially a show about rape and being stripped of agency etc. but it doesn't seem to realize this.
completely off topic but do any of the olds here have a vacuum cleaner to recommend that does well with pet hair and long hair?
swan queen once upon a time hugely failed the adoption coparenting arc by xfiles s5e07 emily standards
#oh you're platonic coparents of an adopted child with the potential for more?#get back to me when you beat up a doctor to save the child's life and testify on behalf of your 'coworker'#that being said i have little ability to keep track of the clone/alien thing so I'm just like 👍 cool i guess that works
