Is it just me, or is HN, normally a much calmer and more reasonable forum than almost anywhere else on the internet, actually a little bit flamey and ranty when you get on the topic of tech interviewing? I've seen reasoned conversations about world politics, war, gender issues, etc. etc. on here, and never as much sturm und drang as on this issue. I do not necessarily exempt myself from this statement, btw.

- rossdavidh 8y agoI have a similar impression.
- mclightning 8y agoIt is very calming to see some more people in the comments are sharing this observation as well. So many comments seem to be projecting onto, reading into OPs personality.
