One of the things that I wish we could meet in the middle on is getting the option to use your favorite text editor or IDE during these interviews.

If you want to be outdoors more, there's the following communities (with forums, maps, and apps):

Mountain Project (a Climbing Resource) https://www.mountainproject.com/

Hiking Project https://www.hikingproject.com/

Trail Run Project https://www.trailrunproject.com/

Powder Project (Backcountry Ski Maps) https://www.powderproject.com/

MTB Project (Mountain Biking) https://www.mtbproject.com/

I would add Bikepacking.com
