> it's easy to sound like you know what you're talking about but not be able to actually write code. Indeed. I'm gonna vent about my anecdote: we hired someone who talked a good game. Turns out they have worse ADHD than I do, will take a few weeks to do what I expect a couple days, and can't follow a deep technical discussion for more than 10 minutes. They're trying, I'll grant them that. But their growth curve has been... low logarithmic. I wish we had been more aggressive with the interview coding tests.
