Think of it as an informal interview. If you come up with a brilliant idea that no one there was able to communicate effectively, what are the chances they're not going to offer you a job or at least a chance to interview?

Are you implying that if I propose a "brilliant" solution here in the comments, Anthropic will DM me, inviting me for an interview?

Wait, I meant it sarcastically, but now I actually really wonder if you believe it (not insulting you! genuine question).

		I don't work at Anthropic so I can't make any claims about their hiring practices, but I've been at FAANG companies and on the hiring committees and it's always a challenge to find good candidates. Engineering managers spend many hours trawling through LinkedIn, looking for good candidates. What's so surprising about using a site like HN to get candidates into the pipeline? HN has a monthly who's hiring thread, even!

Only to lay me off next year after the IPO, no thanks.
