>>>I used to snore like crazy, probably had sleep apnea but was too afraid to go get tested since my grandmother died from becoming dependent on the machine and her lungs failed
I would like to hear more details on this. Being a CPAP machine user I have never heard of this (lungs failing) before.
"This feels like a particular awful thing to ask someone to do, but I believe if everyone truly were able to imagine the sudden death of the folks they love, it would change how they live."
An anecdote and a poll. I grew up in India in middle class family where education was considered important. A recurring nightmare (autual dream I see during sleep) I see even in my adulthood is about me about to take an exam and not being prepared for it. I do not see this nightmare often but I still remember it since the amount of panic I feel when I see it. I discussed with my wife and she also have these nightmare of similar nature. I wanted to check whether anyone out here see this and whether it is more prevalent in culture like Indian culture or is it a universal phenomenon?
I decided to comment after seeing a number of negative comments here. I went through the process a it was a positive experience for me. I ended up interviewing at 5-6 places and didn't receive an offer. I liked getting the interview feedback. The time saved in skipping the usual application process seemed worthwhile to me ( You spend 2(?) hours on the triplebyte interview. Then a short introducutory call with each company you are matched and the onsite interview). My only complaint was that I was looking for larger and my matches were all 5-50 employee companies. I guess not many large firm are using them. Overall I would recommend triplebyte for anyone who is interested in startups and who currently in a full time job search.
