Not flunking the tech interview

 There already is a book on " Cracking the Coding Interview ", but not one for how to not totally flunk it. This blog post assumes an interview for a job involving coding. Many server admin jobs, UI jobs, testing jobs, might not call for you to ever write a line of code. If you don't know it say so. I have never written a line of rust or so much as read a book about it. I know it is a programming language. I will not try to leverage that into solving a live programming puzzle in rust on a whiteboard. If you don't know, say so, don't bullshit. Better to preface it with, "I'm not sure but...." than to confidently bullshit as if no one will notice. The HR person might not notice, but techies will.

I google to see if it is a heart attack-- no feeling of weight on chest, heart rate is slow, no arm pain, etc. I go back to sleep but figure I should get it checked out. Chest continues to hurt during the day. Worse at the end of a hard run, fine in early morning, starts up again as the day goes on. Dr Google suggests that as an old, 49 year old, male life long runner, I might have atrial fibrillation or something else, maybe costochondritis (rib cage arthritis) or heart burn. It probably is not heart...
