Ask HN: Answering interview with major social anxiety, how can I do better?
Hi

My English is not great, so please bare with me.

I have been suffering from major social anxiety and depression from my teenage years. College was difficult time but I made it through with friends who always supported me. Now I am working as tech lead at very small company (people who saw my previous work) for very little salary and general consensus from people I have worked with is that I am good developer. But the anxiety is getting better off me.

I am trying to land job at well established remote companies for last few months, answered few interviews but always failed to impress the interviewer. I even shortens my introduction saying "I am a backend developer" for reason I do not know. Truth is coding just one part of my job and I basically handle everything related to tech in the company and handle multiple projects. Codeparing becomes another nightmare where I cannot even think properly and solve simple problems.

2 days ago I answered technical interview from like my dream company, that would have changed my life but instead we ended up just having some discussion, didn't even manage to fix one spec. Actually I know I can fix all of those in like 15 min.

Its making me question my whole career as developer now. Does anyone here been through similar situation ? Any suggestion?
Based on my experience reading TheDailyWTF for a couple years now:

I bet there was indeed a guy at a company who spoke about himself in the 3rd person, took off the lighting bulbs from his office (Masters of Doom talks about something similar, after all), used female names for his variables, and was fired. I would also bet that the "thanks for the tip" part is also true. I'm on the fence about the tea.

Everything else is probably poetic license to help the story flow better.

I belive that democracy comes after the birth rights. So the %51 cannot cross freedom and rights of the anyone (although it is not true for most of the govts that claim practicing democracy). if the the scenario I've presented is indeed the democracy, then I would be against it already.
I think it's bizarre you're giving cloud marketing material to a person, whose in a position to know their own situation, as-if you were describing their situation.

Like.. what are you expecting to happen? You'll just gaslight them into thinking they dont know how their business works?
This article uses a tweet that identifies Makersplace hosting the beeple image, stating that one day they'll fold, and the image will be gone.

Somehow the author never mentions that, once Makersplace is gone, that image will stay up until IPFS goes away. Makersplace seems to be hosting a cached version of the image, but if you open up Brave Browser and go to ipfs://bafybeie6nurk3frh4dpxeocg3rlucqj75c22wqcxrd6feesyk4nyhlc4wa/ you'll see the preview image.

I'm not a web3/crypto maximalist by any means, but we can't have valid arguments if we don't even understand the ideas that underpin what we're criticizing.

I prefer to name them using related hotel room numbers. Machines in one lan get numbers from one floor, machines in another get numbers from a different floor. It’s not as romantic but when we trade places for a day you’ll at least be able to make some sense of the network structure, meanwhile I’ll still be trying to read the almanac.
BlackBerry offered all your email and all your messages/calls in one place though. Wish I had “Hub” on my iPhone as at the moment I’m using five apps to communicate - ProtonMail, Mail, Messages, Signal and Telegram. Having this on an iPhone would be a game changer.
To be fair, any mention of a death of someone roughly my age and situation sets off my anxiety like nothing else.

I’m not saying they’re obliged to prevent that, but I can sort of see where they are coming from.
Since you're on Firefox, may I suggest using vertical/tree/nested tabs at the side of the Firefox window?

"Tree Style Tab" is the extension I use. Here's a quick screenshot showing its organizational capabilities: https://imgur.com/gallery/wsHSfSt

Mine uses a user style CSS so looks a little different to the default install, but I highly recommend it! If you want to see my CSS, I can share it, just let me know!

These are a different in quality more so than a different in kind. In 1922 you could already talk to someone 100s of miles away via the telephone. In 1822 you couldn't. And getting there was going to take weeks. So you basically couldn't talk to people long distance unless you were rich or important.

> Thousands of satellites that orbit the earth constantly. Space missions that are already flying past the limits of our galaxy.

Means rather than an end here. Google Maps is neat and convenient, but again, you _could_ use paper maps for much of what people use google maps for. And large paper mapping schemes (e.g. ordnance survey maps in countries of the british empire) were carried out in the 19th century and WW1. Communications could also be done, albeit more expensively. Space missions are still currently in the scientific curiosity stage, rather than impacting people's lives, but who knows maybe commercial near earth space missions end up being the one people get to to talk about for 2022-2122.

These are technically more accomplished achievements for sure, but I'm not sure they have the same sort of societal impacts as initiatives against cholera and tubercolosis of the late 19th century. Vaccination is probably the 20th century achievement to call out here.
The difference between $20 per day and $2.40 per day at our current scale is practically 0 - we do a build every 2 weeks or so. We would save $500 a year on our current scale, which is likely less than it would cost in my salary to set up a scaleway account, spin up an M1 instance and configure it. Definitely worth it if/when we look at having more machines up and running though, thanks!
It's never been that peaceful in the world. The thing that has changed is media reports from all over the world.

Appreciate your candor and wishing you success with your business! What do you think of this approach: I was thinking of starting off as an independent broker (I have a niche customer base I can serve) and using load boards to book independent truckers. Over time as I gain traction, add a customer facing layer for booking/tracking and retain full-time drivers.
I think your colleague cloned the repo, and he had wallet stealing malware in his PC, which probably automatically stole it within milliseconds of the clone happening.

> To be honest, I’m not sure why I do this.

We're in the same boat. And for a few month I've found it pretty annoying and I've tried to stop, but I haven't manage to do so. What's wrong with our brains?!
Well, you ask "is this really necessary?" and then go on to say "people work around it by doing a bunch of work", so I think that's the answer to your question.
I had two situations that point to the media being a big factor.
We had a black friend (one of only two friends invited to our wedding) who we invited to our cabin that we recently purchased. The day of the get together, she cancelled saying the area where the cabin is is racist. My wife is mixed and didn't notice this in the years we visited the same area. About a week later,a long time black friend of another couple refused to visit them for the same reason: racist area. This friend visited many times before, and strangely had the same reaction at the same time as our friend. Turns out a town not far from our cabin did have a history of racism some decades ago and this was profiled on local tv. So that TV show helped kill our friendship. The other couple reconciled with their friend.
I think I'd be happy with a stable API, it wouldn't have to be a stable binary interface. Wanna change the internals of a struct? Totally fine. Not make binary shims for 32-bit drivers? Totally fine.

That would encourage open-source or at least source-available drivers (to allow recompiling for ABI changes), but recompilation should be straightforward and possibly automatic if the API doesn't change every couple months.
In the 70s it was somewhat mandatory to name CS research computers after characters and locations from Lord of the Rings.

But there's still a difference between SET HOST RIVENDELL and naming all your variables after hobbits.
> Just a few years to teach the lesson

You sound like a Stalin (I came from an authoritarian country).

Imprisonment usually does an amusingly bad job at "teaching a lesson". If you want to "teach a lesson", then why not torture?
Too many smart (or smart-sounding) people either here or on Reddit claim casually that some X will take hundreds of years to do. Where X may be artificial intelligence, conquest of longevity or whatever else.

The reality is that we do not know. Some things may be out of our reach forever, but contemporary world has by far the highest count of scientists ever and the talent pool is widening as countries such as Bangladesh escape their previous crushing poverty. To this comes politics. A second Cold War with China may be terrifying and yet enormously scientifically productive, much like WWII and the previous Cold War was.

I am personally not willing to make any technical/scientific predictions beyond 2030. Political even less so.
> People "buy" video games on steam, they "buy" films and tv shows

I'd never thought about that! With the exception of physical books, places like Amazon can just yank whatever content from under you (web3 calls it a "rug pull"). Like the time they removed 1984: https://www.nytimes.com/2009/07/18/technology/companies/18am...

I think we're only ok with "buying" jpgs because we're at the point of absurdity that almost anything we buy is actually rented today. So, thanks to SaaS businesses pushing this model, "buying" digital goods does seem like a natural progression.

Even positive cash flow isn't a 100% Guarantee. Eventually technology companies will be impacted by the greater economy. Ad revenue and luxury purchases will be hit by a real down turn. How do you justify a 30x P/E ratio if your market segment is flat? Down quarters happen. Apple had massive upgrades this year but how long until the next major overhaul? And if your staring down massive food price inflation do you still go out and buy a new phone? some will but a lot won't. They're also running into supply constraints. How much more screen space can google take up with ads?
In none of the hard Sci-Fi I read as a child did they say "I needn't worry for light, as I had my portable cellphone"

Will you have AR displays that hide the information an make a room otherwise appear devoid of technology? Yes...because normal people don't fetishize technology and HGTV tells me it should be hidden from sight.

Will it be a display projected on your contact lenses, a mist excreted from a rod with lasers shined upon it, or a projector with a funky short throw lens? Man, I've got no clue...but all the fiction I've seen with fantastic display technology shows: We'll will it into existence.
The power gained over people when they submit to being monitored by pocket 1984 telescreens leads to totalitarian bullshit, inevitably. Free stuff for now, lost rights forever. It doesn't matter who is recording you, the information will end up in the wrong hands, and has. Maybe I seem hyperbolic, but on longer time scales there is certainly a trend towards taking our agency from us as we become more dependent on tech. There is no free lunch. What I would give, to be the guy everyone hates for taking their free shit away and saving democracy...
Assistance against their own people. That's a big "nope".

Using the military against one's own people is already a "nope", getting foreign assistance sounds exactly like a foreign invasion.

I use both MFA and a password manager tool for security purposes, and the account is connected to my work email.

I am pretty sure that no security flaws was the cause of this, except pushing to the private repo.

I have checked the transaction and the commit dates, which are matching perfectly.
No doubt about that.
> Stocks

At current valuations (Shiller PEs ~40), stocks are disconnected from their income. Therefore, if the Fed tapers harder or even reduces the money supply, it will crash. This leads to a "Ponzi" musical chairs aspect where investors getting in last will have bailed out the ones before them.

> Real estate obviously

Valuations are still heavily influenced by monetary policy, but also by intrinsic scarcity. As space runs out around desirable areas, the ways to acquire are increasingly limited to buying from an existing owner.

>What makes you feel that economic interests are always the same as political interests?

HN is generally bad at understanding that people will willingly forgo some wealth in exchange for political/ideological/religious goals when the forgoing takes any form other than paying more taxes to fund something you approve of.

They get it when your example is something they all support like the US fighting a civil war over slavery but when you try to generalize that behavior up a step and then use it to explain the actions of people supporting something they don't agree with you get something like this[1].

Interesting. The thought of death calms my anxiety because I know* that if I die then all my worries will be taken away, and nothing will really matter anymore. It's the prospect of an unhappy or difficult life that worry me.

For that price you might as well just get a bigger space in the first place.

Then you won't have to be meticulously tidy and will have the option to have someone watching TV and sleeping at the same time (or whichever other tradeoff each of those furniture items offer)
Zlatan ibrahimovic does it sometimes. Although I have not met him. I can't translate it to English however, I don't know what that type of third person grammar is called. I think the closest translation would be something like "one feels very determined to win this match"
Could be worse. See the short story "Chronopolis" by J.G. Ballard.

It is set in a future where people's lives became so dominated by having to constantly use their watches and clocks to coordinate every aspect of their day that their health, sanity, and productivity were being serious harmed.

As a result clocks and watches were outlawed. Having one became a serious offense that would earn you a long jail sentence.

Instead of clocks and watches to coordinate people were assigned to groups, and there were public chimes or bells or something (I forget which) that would signal when it was time for your group to do various things. So for example if you are in the red group and want to go grocery shopping, you just wait until you hear the bell that signals red shopping time is starting.
I’m discussing the linked article, which is what this comment section is for and it’s what the parent commenter was comparing to.
What I find fascinating about these predictions is that a lot of them came to pass around 1970 and then fell back. For example nationalisation of utilities and railways (here in the UK), communal living (tower blocks), and so on.

Not to mention "a great liberalism of mind and the freedom to say anything"....
I’ll take that

Its more that other people say that about a very few select industries and trades, I've heard this many many times levied at the finance industry and the last two decades thats been specifically software engineers (the “quants”) at finance firms, software eating all
With some browser security policy that blocks part of the download, the homepage www.photopea.com clocks in at 3.80MB (so it should be much higher in practice). In this case, it's mostly JS, so designing your website properly (without JS, especially if the app itself is wasm not JS) would have much better savings than moving to CloudFlare CDN.

A CDN is more times than not the wrong answer to a real problem. Shave off your website and consider content-addressed protocols for big static asset download (like the textures from the article). If you run your website as a lightweight glorified Bittorrent index you'll notice your costs are suddenly a lot less, and you can still have a smaller "Download over the web" button as fallback.
Very impressive library! Is it still in the developmental stage, or do you know of anyone using it for real yet?

Also, I love livebook! I keep a tab with it open and it has replaced my use of iex. Can you talk a little bit about how you decided to embark on building that, too? An ML library and framework is a big enough job already, how did you decide to add Livebook to the list?

Right but what effect do stocks changing hands in the stock market have to the company? Perhaps if you had enough of them you could influence the company's direction, but it's the same with some cryptocurrencies.

Well, yes. Hence the Magnitsky Act.

Although really the question of banking money from unacceptable foreigners is an old one, unresolved throughout the 20th century. It's too convenient for the West to really give up on, so a short list is maintained of the "definitely unacceptable", but there's no systematic criteria for what "unacceptable" really is.

It's quite clear from the lack of UK response to the Salisbury poisonings that the UK is financially compromised into indifference, for example.

I never realized this phrase originated from /within/ Microsoft!
There have been lots of technology x replacing a manual process with the promise that "now instead of doing y, the person is now free to explore more leisurely pursuits." In reality, there's a race in terms of productivity: "now they can do 2x the work they did before!"

As long as companies are driven by profits, and that profit can be increased by higher enployee productivity in the same number of legal working hours, we will continue to do so.

Even on a personal level, say a car lets me do a trip in 30 minutes instead of 2 hours walking. I don't relax for an hour and a half. I go check more things off my todo list.
