I'm merely suggesting that most engineers who take the time to study for these interviews are probably good enough to make money on their own somehow. Whether that is a startup, consulting, lifestyle business, or something else... If people just focused on doing a lot of great work, then the jobs will come to them.
I hate to see talented people wasting their time preparing for these interviews. The opportunity cost is too high. These current hiring practices are robbing the world of great software–code that will never exist because the time was instead spent on superfluous interview tasks.
