Humming the “Moon” theme from the Ducktails video game should also count

I hear you. The bigger issue is that companies are now giving technical interviews that previously would be a 2 week long in-house project, but now demand “proficient candidates” complete within 3-4 hours. They compromise by saying, “you can use any chatbot you want!”

My interpretation is that the market wants people to know enough about what they’re doing to both build AND fix entire projects with chatbots. That said, many organizations are only selecting for candidates who do the former quickly…

Pick something in your daily life that you want to make more convenient. Start searching for tutorials, necessary hardware, and related coding.

Even something simple like, “I wish I didn’t have to turn on my fan because it’s in the corner.” Boom: look into building a motion sensor that runs a fan, and maybe it connects via a USB port for power.

Convince yourself it doesn’t need to perfect. It just needs to create a convenience that happens to teach you something.
