Compete with what ? I want to see a decent budget and at least 5 year plan first. The scenario is ridiculous, each distribution have so many mirrors that you can’t just ban internet, baning development is even more unrealistic given the nature of linux development. What they gonna do, ban email ? https://git-scm.com/docs/git-send-email
I don’t think good job interview is about answering right or wrong questions. It’s more about talking with human you could work with and if that human is able to think his way out because it’s engineering job after all.
I am contractor as well I only did job interviews as a side quest and I also frequently fail my job interviews, there is nothing bad there.
Personally I didn’t like 90% of job interviews and there were plenty of them. Most of those people tried to convince me they are smarter and better then me and I am lucky I am speaking with them. But unfortunatelly that’s how it looks like.
Most people that excpect right or wrong answers are just morons in my opinion because programming is about being wrong 90% of the time.
Good Luck
I run this one. https://ollama.com/library/deepseek-r1:32b-qwen-distill-q4_K_M with this frontend https://github.com/open-webui/open-webui on single rtx 3090 hardware 64gb ram. It works quite well for what I wanted it to do. I wanted to connect 2x 3090 cards with slurm to run 70b models but haven’t found time to do it.
Honestly when I was doing interview I always tried to ask simple questions about data structures or technologies from CV like what’s the difference between array / list and set, or set and map, I got 90% people failing those answers, sometimes it was stress and you could feel it, so I even helped them with answers and always tried to encourage them so they get rid of stress and start thinking. All of people I hired turned out to be good workers and still work in those companies. I think we just slowly forget how to talk with each other. With all the technology around us, we’re losing empathy.
I believe you can run 30B models on single used rtx 3090 24GB at least I run 32B deepseek-r1 on it using ollama. Just make sure you have enought ram > 24GB.
If you want to use supercomputer software, setup SLURM scheduler on those machines. There are many tutorials how to do distributed gpu computing with slurm. I have it on my todo list.

Does 5 time trackers count as 5 points ?
That we’re billionaires puppets, enslaved by country to work until death or something new ?
I leave interview because in this question I’m not the team lead but just tool that take orders.
I liked typescript until I started working with people who like strict types.
…into cursor or windsurf, how the fuck they come up with those names dude ? Vibe coding on windsurf.
In proper agile you don’t have end goal and date set, however management needs end goal and a date.
Oh so she’s nextgen Selena Gomez / Miley Cyrus / Lindsey Lohan
Yes it’s fairy simple, basically you draw random things and think about what you want to write about, then the person who needs to read it just go back in time and reads your mind from that period using your paper card. People do it all the time, it’s called Art. Go to museum and you find plenty of those.
Yeah but that’s what you will be using not what you will be doing.
Writing that programming languages is the thing you will be working on. Not what application you will be doing because you’re just a tool, not human being.
Only with tv guide magazines.
I just want to know what I will be doing and they say Java, go, JavaScript, Ruby, Python, or rust and I am like. I don’t do compilers.
Because of Tom Hanks and Obi-Wan Kenobi.
