I have been getting a number of people trying to get me to apply for crypto jobs recently. They list a load of buzzwords expecting me to be enthusiastic about the hot new tech. I explain that I am not (but that I will work for them if they are interested in a solid software engineer and they pay me enough).
A brute force exhaustive search of all possible technologies is not smart engineering.
