As devs, I have never developed any novel algorithms. Most times, I have implemented them, by reading at docs, rfcs. Somehow it feels like this has affected my articulation. Of late I find it quite difficult to interract with people in interviews. Thinking out loud.

I have never thought out loud, its disgusting to make people see the clumsyness. People expect me, to solve something I am supposed to know from before hand, and somehow pretend that I am self discovering this.

In a way this process of interviewing has become like some entrance exam to sit.

But honestly I am not that guy. So this month, I have taken upon something

• I should have done back in college, when I had the time,
• I should have done 3 months before instead of building stupid apps
• I should have done when I had a stable job

I want to take things in from a first principle basis. The goal is not even to solve the problem, it more about how do I get to ask the right questions.

I don’t think people understand what comes with having a hint of AuDD.

But as Sinestro says: ‘Fear is a great motivator’
