I interviewed with them, after very affirming conversations with a few different people in the organization.

My writing/async communication skills didn't come up. _They did not ask_, which means my writing skills are illegible to the organization.

I bombed the "live algorithmic coding challenge", which is a re-implementation of the Trier Social Stress Test, and indeed induced substantial anxiety on my behalf, _because I so wanted to work at Stripe_. [0]

I was so dispirited I've not done another technical interview since.
