When I first started to try to work in bitcoin my parents gave me a lot of bad advice for questions to ask in interviews. Also when I started doing open source they wanted me to try to get patents on everything.
I love them for trying to help but the open source world is very different than the rest.
The world changed so much and so quick
The advice your grandparents gave your parents made sense. The advice your great grandparents gave your grandparents probably made sense. The advice our parents generation wants to give us is very out of touch.

What kind of questions did they suggest you ask? This has piqued my interest

I was interviewing for the chaincode residency and my parents thought of it as an internship so ask about if i can progress into a full time and if they're able to connect me to other companies. When I asked those questions it totally felt wrong because thats not really the mindset you should be going into with the residency
