I had an interview last night and they asked me to do a coding exercise on a Mac with no mouse, a custom trackpad layout and an Australian keyboard layout. It took me longer to figure out how to use the damn thing than it did to do the exercise. I have come to the realization that using a mac is like driving a really, really shiny car with a manual gearbox that has only one pedal. It looks good on the outside, but you need to throw out everything you’ve learned about driving a car out the window because if you want your pedal to be a clutch, you need to use the indicator stalk and if you need a break pedal, you need to wiggle the wiper stalk.
