Question for EM interview:

'How did you cultivate talent and aggressively manage the execution of your team?'

Answer:
I do not wish to proceed.

Applied for 4 jobs. If successful in each interview a total of 16 interviews, 6 coding tests as two of the jobs have 2 coding tests. One of those coding tests was to build a frontend and backend from scratch fully united tested implementing part of the product they are building. When I am recruiting I find out everything I need to know in about 2 hours. Does this seem all a bit too much or is it just me ?

And covid shutters my project until next year. Gah phooey and back to the recruiters.

Security startup...
'Which football team do you support?'
'Not sure how that is relevant.'
'It is very relevant'

While finishing up development on an Atari Jaguar game. The game crashed after being left on the frontend screen for 24 hours. Part of the Atari QA checklist.

The bug turned out to be really easy to fix. Just work late and reset the testers Jaguar at 3am. Beers all round and sent to duplication ;)

Still crashes to this day.

Monday AM. Instead of building images in the backend i'll just make them in HTML and use a headless browser to screenshot them ! Sweet. Doable in a day and saves the rest of my week !

Friday afternoon. Crashes, browser failure, zombie processes, intermittent failure, docker failure with headless browser. Still not working well.

Why am I such a dumb fuck ?
