Who wrote this? This must be one of the weirdest software engineer requirements I've read.

If you think about this like a filtration process, there's maybe 50 people in the entire world with these credentials that are looking for a job right now, and the fun part is they want to work with a major firm. I'll never understant why no name companies source ridiculous job reqs.

But there is clearly no understanding of the requirements. Who is supposed to work with VSCode, Vim and Emacs? But also why would you require knowledge of an IDE/Editor... that's kinda implied that you know how to use it as an engineer. Your not punching cards...

No one understands the requirements. They think their company success is hinged on replicating what they do at Google. Tech is currently at a "Cargo Cult" stage where they believe if they hire what looks like a 10x engineer, it will get them to a 10B outcome. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cargo_cult_programming

This confirms what I'm thinking for a while. Happy I'm not the only one who walks around and thinks this is a cargo cult.
