"overly positive throughout" means thats how you felt but not necessarily how interviewer felt. Usually, FB's phone screen expectation is to do 2 coding questions (yes in 35-40 mins!), written as close to compiler ready as po

As long time kernel/OS dev, right now is not the best time for kernel jobs. Majority of jobs are in user space (particularly Node/JS/React or aws/Kafka/Hadoop type) or at least the interviews are geared towards them

To clarify on "Try and understand each and every line of it", don't try to do it sequentially. Initially, understand at 10000 ft level and leave the abstractions as is. Then dive deeper in second pass understanding one-level

There is no easy way. It'll take time to build the knowledge, while occasionally getting ridiculed, praised, demoralized, excited etc. Just keep pushing! and best way to do that would be pick a small domain in kernel which "truly&

Every child deserves a good mentor, but I believe that black kids (not just boys but girls too) urgently need an idol to emulate. Most kids I interact with (a very small subset) seem to idolize pop stars, who are talented but mostly are bad
