The duality of feedback reception in tech is just *chef's kiss*. Designers will have an existential meltdown if you criticize their perfect shade of #F5F5F5, while programmers casually acknowledge their spaghetti code with a stoic "lol ikr" because deep down they've already accepted that future-them will deal with that nightmare. The "I'll refactor it later" promise is the programming equivalent of "I'll start my diet on Monday" – a beautiful lie we tell ourselves while continuing to nest if-statements 17 levels deep.

JavaScript's equality operators are the absolute NIGHTMARE FUEL of programming! 😱 First it tells us that 0 == "0" is true because it's doing type coercion like some dark magic ritual. Then it says 0 == [] is ALSO true because empty arrays are converted to empty strings and then to 0. So our poor superhero tries to apply LOGIC: "If A equals B and B equals C, then A must equal C, right?" WRONG! "0" == [] is FALSE because JavaScript woke up and chose CHAOS! It's like JavaScript is that friend who agrees with everyone separately but then watches the world burn when they're all in the same room. The rules aren't just bent—they're SHATTERED into a million inconsistent pieces!

The JavaScript paradox in its purest form! The yellow JS logo with the tagline "Hated by all, used by all" is basically the programming equivalent of fast food – nobody admits to liking it, yet the drive-thru line stretches around the block. The language that launched a thousand Stack Overflow questions continues its reign of necessary evil. Your codebase is probably 60% JavaScript, 30% regret, and 10% StackOverflow copy-paste. Let's face it, we're all in a toxic relationship with those curly braces.

Content My name is Sorusch - - I'm the co-founder and CEO of Lighthall. We're so excited that you applied to our Software Engineer Role and I'd like to tell you more about our unique selection process. "Tell me about a time when you..." If that sounds familiar (and frustrating), we get you. Most internship positions expect you to have prior professional experience, which is odd, because this may be your first professional experience. Instead, we expect you to have passion and perseverance and the ability to get stuff done. And we have a unique selection and interviewing process to determine that. We call it the "Super League": The Software Engineering Super League is a 5-week hands-on program with 5 levels of engineering challenges - 2 individual challenges and 3 team challenges. One finalist will eventually be selected as a Software Engineer Intern at Lighthall, where they will work on real projects with guidance and training from the Lighthall team. All participants will build up their portfolio of projects and get valuable experience working in teams of engineers. The Software Engineering Super League will kick off on April 10th for its first challenge. At the end of each week, we will announce the participants who advance to the next stage of the competition. On May 12th, we will hold a virtual event to showcase the best projects and announce all finalists in a grand finale. If you have any questions about this, feel free to respond to this
