The Reality of Tech Interviews in 2025 Interview processes are changing in a tech market that’s both cooling AND heating up at the same time. A deepdive with Hello Interview founders, Evan King and Stefan Mai

Very good article explaining how the tech interview scene has changed. newsletter.pragmaticengineer.com/p/the-realit...

(I'm preparing to go back to the tech world again.)

Color illustration of a sailboat with solar sails. The hull is painted white and red, and technical data about it can be seen on the top left corner.

Color illustration of some red slipper lobsters resting atop of a tiled, half flooded floor. The tiles are blue and yellow, with fleur-de-lis flowers drawn on them.

Color illustration of the interior of a brutalist tower, light leaks through a big circular opening on the wall with a golden disc on its center. What it seems the working place of a radio operator can be seen inside.

Color illustration, reimagining the painting in a sci-fi setting. Athena is wearing a phoropter, a parabolic antenna as a shield, a scaffolding bar as a spear and a space blanket. She is standing against a concrete wall.

Hi! I'm Lur Noise and I do illustration, concept art and comics.

I love drawing sci-fi, fantasy, tech, architecture, critters and plants. I'm available for commissions and work!

Whoa! This one is really beautiful

I am really hoping the Democratic Party will do better.

Finished a character design sheet. It's a bit boring now but when I get around to adding more dresses, hopefully it'll be more exciting then~ #characterdesign #noai #costumedesign

#CharacterDesign sheet done a few weeks ago. I have no idea where the story will go but I'm still heavily invested in the characters. #ConceptArt #CostumeDesign #noai
Heavily inspired by the awesome Navajo culture.

I totally did not think about simplifying shapes.

🚬 🗡️❤️ Happy Valentines from Noemi, Catalina, Virgil and Francis in the Doyle library from ‘Mexican Gothic’ written by @silviamg.bsky.social It’s an honor to be asked by Silvia to explore how her complex characters would look in a Red Nose Studio world.

This painting is so good!

Hahaha amazing!

I'm still doing at least a page on my sketchbook - but my neck has been hurting from sketching posture. I need to figure out a a better posture & angle...! #ink #sketchbook #handdrawings

Thank you!

I think the HeavyJan challenge has made me more comfortable with making mistakes. I’ve been doing 2-3 pages of fountain pen sketches on my cheap MUJI sketchbook a day. Maybe I’ll try to keep this streak going for February and maybe finish a sketchbook in record time.

This one started as an oil painting study but turned into Death Stranding 2 fanart as I want to hike new landscapes

Collins: Is there a tangible concession in your view?

Davidson: Yeah, absolutely. It’s a commitment from Trudeau to help with fentanyl

Collins: He announced that plan six weeks ago.

Davidson: Well, at least he's reiterated it

Thank you Dan! Extreme level fire month for you, too!

No mystery what we're seeing here:
-Illegally withholding spending/nullifying contracts
-Purges of law enforcement and prosecutors
-Taking bribes for lenient treatment while threatening enemies with persecution
-Pardoning violent/paramilitary allies
-Granting vast powers to an unelected billionaire

#heavyjan day 31!
I made it to the end!!!!
When I recover enough mojo to do paint studies again, I'll try to focus on more landscapes.

digital painting in rough colors of han looking at the viewer; they're a white trans person with oversized aviators and swoopy dark hair.

ending #heavyjan with a self portrait from life. 🌹 #heavypaint

Illustration by mid-century illustrator Al Parker. A woman in pearls and a dance-inspired outfit of tight sleeveless top with a big skirt, leans over the shoulder of her seated fella who is reading the paper. She's planting a big kiss on his forehead, thanking him for a box of chocolates. There are broad ares of flat color and pattern, with a few choice bits of rendering on heads hands and hair.

al parker is here to remind you that there's always something interesting you can do with patterns or color or staging.

Matthew 5:43-47 (part of the sermon on the mount)
