Synopsis
The hearse with the weird odor slowed to a stop before the entrance. The sound of pebbles could be heard bouncing on the ceiling. There were footsteps coming from the corridor, and there seemed to be someone sawing next door. The door knob to the room rattled slightly, and the faucet in the bathroom kept dripping even though it had been screwed shut. There was a rubber ball that rolled on its own underneath the bed. Wet footsteps started to surface one after another on the floor. At 3 am, Chen Ge held a cleaver in his hand as he hid beside the room heater. The call he was trying to make was finally answered. "Landlord, is this what you meant by 'the house can be a little crowded at night'‽"

One horror story is when the interviewer was constantly interrupting the candidate. The candidate was trying to explain their solution to a coding problem, but the interviewer kept cutting in with their own thoughts, not letting the candidate fully express themselves. This made the candidate very nervous and they couldn't perform at their best.

One common type is the unprepared interviewer. They might not have a clear understanding of the skills they are supposed to test, so they ask irrelevant questions or misinterpret the candidate's answers. Another is the overly strict time limit. For example, being given a very complex problem but only a few minutes to solve it. It doesn't give the candidate enough time to think and code properly.

One horror story is when a developer made a small change in a critical function without proper testing. It led to a cascade of errors in the whole system. Hours were spent debugging to find that one innocent - looking line of code was the culprit.

Another threading horror is starvation. This occurs when a thread is continuously deprived of the resources it needs to run. For instance, in a system with a priority - based scheduler, if high - priority threads keep getting scheduled all the time, low - priority threads may starve. So, a thread that is supposed to perform an important background task may never get a chance to execute.

In an interview once, the room was freezing cold. The employer didn't seem to notice or care. I was shivering while trying to answer their questions. And on top of that, they were asking really personal questions that had nothing to do with the job, like about my family's financial situation. It was a very uncomfortable experience.
