Don't bring your parents to the interview lol.

Seriously though, you're interviewing the company as much as they are interviewing you. Find interview questions examples to ask during the interview. You'll want to find out if you like the work culture, if it looks like the interviewers like their job, how frequent overtime is required, etc.

Whether they give you a job offer or not, don't sweat it. There is a lot going on at the company outside of your control that will affect them giving a job offer or not regardless of how well you did in the interview. I recommend taking the interview as a learning experience and practice with a friend beforehand. Doing well in interviews is a skill especially for technical interviews where folks can ask a range of questions while all eyes are on you.

Good luck!

I personally don't think the protests are working. But they are getting reddit admins to show they have no interest in the communities on reddit and as a result, are helping push everyone to wonderful new communities that don't generate revenue for the owners of reddit. So I just may be misunderstanding the goal of the protest, but it's definitely doing something!

Definitely exercise is great for stress management. Something about cardio cuts through stress like a knife through warm butter.

I'm surprised they haven't banned the Apollo dev.

It's amazing seeing this all happen in realtime. I was on the fence about deleting my reddit account in order to keep participating in the small communities that decide to stay on reddit, but I'm just how aggressive reddit admins have been with treating people who actively engage with the site.

Subreddits protesting are trying to get the message to reddit management that they don't agree. Instead of having a discussion, reddit management is just forcing their will on everyone, which causes the discenters to leave the proverbial table as they realize any there will be no discussion.

At this point, anyone who still wants to use reddit is just enabling this behavior.

Some Pixar executive: "we need to make characters more abstract"

I don't know who these movies are for, but I'm still surprised they made that much money.

While this is funny, it drives traffic to the site so it's the equivalent of people buying Nike shoes to then burn as protest. The company is still making money and they're getting free advertising.

A better protest would be to delete Reddit accounts, uninstall the apps, and see how long you can go without hearing or thinking about reddit.

When I first used a backup camera in 2015, I immediately felt it should be required due to how easy it is to see if there is a kid or dog behind your car while backing up. I'm glad they actually did make it required! Though my issue with it now is how there doesn't seem to be a standard resolution, field of view, etc. So some cars have a terrible backup camera, but there's always turning your head around and looking back there!

Next they should make front cameras for personal trucks required!

@LChitman I'm sure this was intended to get rid of the users that aren't easy to qualify into revenue.
