Would be nice to have the journal the paper is published in on the post.
Now you get recorded, told you cannot alt-tab, take home assignments are very strict for companies that aren't even close to a FAANG (I mean, if you're applying to Google it comes with the territory, but why is your random startup so strict?), you are automatically graded on your command of English, etc.
There are still the garbage job offers where they'll hire anyone with a pulse, but unless your situation is dire you don't want those.
It all feels vaguely dystopic and depressing. The only consolation is that only now we realize what it felt for people outside our industry. We had it easy!
Well said, this has been my own thinking on crypto, nice to see it so succinctly summarized.
