Comment on When I'm being interviewed and someone tells me they are passionate about diversity
masterofballs@wolfballs.com 2 years agoIts just frustrating because I usually interview pretty well but with 4 people there is always some cunt who obviously doesn't like me for no reason. Or they are really only hiring friends on the team. Sometimes I just want to give up and go teach English for 20 Years over seas.

Cmon, follow your heart. You did really great with Wolfballs. If corporate types don't see your passion, then that's their loss.
Surely, there are tech companies, that may not be as big as MS, but which have really interesting positions ? Maybe in machine learning or robotics or self driving. Even if you don't get into Tesla, there's a lot of competition in that market - Uber, Waymo, GM etc.

Heart? Passion? Machine Learning? Robotics?
Tell me, how do type out a while loop "passionately"? Americans are just fucking weird.

I am not American. I just wish I was.
Mechanics passionate about their job, will be passionate about fuel lines, gaskets, pressure valves etc. Similarly, I as a programmer am passionate about the nuts and bolts of my job. Passionate programmers dig into the inner workings of loops to see performance differences and use cases, for example lag difference between a million "while", "foreach", "for" loops iterating over dictionaries. Then there are multi threaded loops like parallel "for", "foreach" etc. The differences also differ based on what language you use. I love stuff like this.
