“somewhere between 4 and 8 offers right now” How can the number of offers be indeterminate?

  He's waiting on responses or is entering the final rounds for some of these companies.

    Bingo. Mix of "offer in hand", "offer coming Monday-ish", and "finishing interview loops" Also, who says I'm a "he"? FAANG companies have smart female engineers too (not nearly enough, but we're working on it)

      I apologize, "he" was for most of American English's history the default pronoun when gender was not known. I'm still working on using "they" instead, but I occasionally slip up. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_neutrality_in_English https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_neutrality_in_English

      > Also, who says I'm a "he"? Assuming you're saying this as a way to effectively double the pool of people your throwaway comes from, adding a bit to the entropy. Adding more writing style sample, and on another topic, probably does more to identify you than the extra bit of entropy reduced.
