I interviewed with AT&T for a job and the interviewer was sure a piece of concurrent code was sound and I was sure it was not, but couldn’t articulate it at the end of a long day.

I would have been working in CORBA when it was already on its way out. Silver lining that was a bullet I dodged entirely, except of course having the pay the opportunity cost all early Java devs paid because there was an ORB in the JDK for ten+ years.

Good thing you dodged that bullet, or you'd still be counting ringie dingies and not caring.
