I can't even get an interview. The most recent one few months ago and I passed it with great score, top 5% of candidates etc but that wasn't enough to get me hired. Terrible market, i'm at my wits end to even how to approach

This is so naive, you watch chess masters not because of the quality of the end result of the chess game but because it illustrates human ability, it's entertainment. SWE the quality is measured in the end result, there's no beaut

Transit is different, you are going from one place to another. Cafes are where people that know each other come to socialize. You will almost never see a lone person in a cafe in the country where I live in, and a lively conversation tends
