Oh God, Spivak. The name gives me flashbacks to my first year at U of C. I arrived thinking I was smart about math things. That book humbled me bad. A tough beginning to four tough, lonely years.

Yeah, one consequence of hiring exclusively based on technical skill is that you end up with some employees that are empathy challenged. My employer recently added one "are you a human?" interview to every loop presumably for this
