I've been in the industry for decades, and perform interviews for entry level up to and including principal level. This form of interviewing is absurd, invasive and useless. It will NOT tell you how good someone is... any monkey can write code, the real question I always try and get a handle on is:

Can they solve complex problems? How do they tear the problems apart? How do they apply technologies to do so?

In person (or video) is the ONLY way to tell how good they are.

Take home tests are useless.

Good on you for telling them no in a very professional way.

I hope you are able to find something soon, it's a really tough market out there!!!

Is it time to go back to the plugin-hell called Eclipse?

This is what I do… find a comfortable position, then start relaxing all of your muscles.

Start with your toes .. given them a wiggle and relax them. Slowly move up your body into your torso… then down your arms, and finally your neck and head.

I’m usually out before I get to my arms.

This is neat.. I just tried “faceting lemmy” and my community came up on top.

I found it entertaining but a bit shallow in terms of dialog. It felt aimed at the younger crowd. Don’t get me wrong it was most definitely a fun read.

Thanks for the suggestion! I had no idea that community existed. I just cross posted.

I cut gemstones and cut this in a custom design, and wanted to share with Star Wars fans.

This is a new design that has 198 facets that I thought was going to be a challenge to cut, but was much easier than I anticipated. I would have uploaded a video, but haven’t figured out quite how to do that yet.

This is from a new community that is all about faceting gemstones. If you are in to lapidary of any kind, subscribe!
