Welcome to Iteration, a weekly podcast about programming, development, and design.

JP Layoffs

John Layoffs

  • C19 forced our company to extend our runway, laying off half our team.
  • 7 of 11 got laid off
  • This has been hard to adapt, created a lot of work and pushed out our timelines.

Interviews?

  • Phone Screens over a dozen
    • Leads from personal network + spreadsheets
    • Hot tip: If you are in high demand set up a calendly
    • Hot tip: Block out time in your calendar so it's not wall to wall meetings
      • 30 minutes is bad 25 minutes and 55 minutes
  • Interviews 4 or 5 technical interviews

State of tech

  • Restaurants with awkward apps

John Bad IRS Site

  • The new IRS website to get stimmy money breaks every single UI best practice. It’s a perfect case study usability 101
    • Validations aren't until after submission
    • Not responsive
    • Only supports firefox (Officially)
    • Very strange validations - money with no coma or $
    • ST vs Street with no previous notice.

JP Government Websites are just kind of funny in general

  • I filled out the Census 2020 form yesterday (I know, I procrastinated)
  • Why are the options in the form of questions?
