This is an incredibly generous offer and I hope it gets done, because it would BY FAR the most valuable thing that the OP needs.
- suck-it-dang 5y agoSo that this clown can call OP "really weird" in person, or what? The world would be a better place if all of these smug Silicon Valley dimwits were shackled up and forced to clear underbrush in the forests, as opposed to whatever reality-distortion bullshit they're working on at a FAANG.
- dotBen 5y agoI spent almost 2hrs with snakedoctor this evening. He's a smart young man who just needs some pointers and advice as he doesn't really have anyone around him who has experience of landing and keeping a job in tech.
- A_Venom_Roll 5y agoThat's awesome! You are a good human being!
- hnra 5y agoProps to you for being amazingly empathetic!
- amacbride 5y agoThis may be the single best thing I’ve ever read on HN; truly awesome and generous for you to have reached out in this way.

- honkdaddy 5y agoWhat a wonderful thing to do. WP Engine is great, by the way!
- oblio 5y agosnakedoctor, I'm not sure you'll read this, but on the off chance you do, you just got at least $500 worth of interviewing advice. More like $1000-1500+. You'd better make good use of it!
- frombody 5y agojust wanted to say that you're a good person :)
- mxxx 5y agoWow man, this just made my day. Good on you.
- Apofis 5y agoThat's extraordinarily generous and super that you actually provided him this opportunity. He clearly needs direction. I hope it works out for him and you get SUPER-brownie points.
- kyting 5y agoKudos to you!
