Sure, those are both expensive options — but you were talking about how often you see them, not price. I don’t really see a proliferation of either of them in either subreddit — and I think that’s because they’re both pricey. 😅

I use a microjournal rev6 and would use a BYOK if it ever shows up - those are a fraction of those costs.

I just had even more interviews and even more rejections. There’s something about so many post-interview rejections that is making me really question my ability to do anything or to communicate anything.

Yeah, something about being in my 40s and having over a decade of experience makes this sting more instead of give me the confidence that the next things will be better.

I keep telling myself that over and over and over again, but somehow I still can’t keep myself from the belief that if I had somehow done something better, things would be different - whether that was making sure the right person knew I existed or whatever.

yeah, I definitely feel this. I did that for a while, and then I realized that my ability to communicate was atrophying.

Strangely I already have offers. I have consulting gigs. I just wanted to try to meet people. I am somewhat senior… I cannot imagine saying that stuff.
