why do they care if you have memorized all of each languages specific apis when you can easily look them up on the fly with intellisense or similiar. My own pet peeve since being super dyslexic despite being a solid programmer I memorize very little just the general idea and capability of how different constructs generally work across languages.

My biggest issue is hitting spacebar 20 times in a row. I usually work in Python via Vim so Google Docs is a pure shitshow for me.

"Do you want tabs or spaces?"

> "Spaces please"

"Fuck... okay I guess..."

For what it's worth, when I do coding interviews, I really don't care if the candidate calls the function at() or get() or find(), whatever that particular library in that particular language actually has, as long as their usage of the supposed function is appropriate in the language.

I've transitioned away from spending too much on coding and mostly ask stylistic open ended questions although I still do some coding when interviewing a candidate. As a dyslexic though the current industry white board interviewing process is a poor indicator of how I actually perform in the real world.
