Ask HN: Who's getting their job applications rejected?

I'm in the US. I tell you what, it's been a tough season for me. I've applied to a dozen positions (senior, full-stack or backend) at mid-to-large companies. Not start-ups. I've interviewed and solved the problems yet I keep getting rejected.

Is anyone else having a similar experience or is it just me?

 PNY CS3150 1TB SSD review: A dual-fan, RGB marvel

The PNY CS3150 is yet another PCIe 5.0 SSD, setting itself apart with a dual-fan cooler with optional RGB lighting. Performance is good and the dual fans aren't loud and help the drive stay very cool. However, it offers little new and tends to be expensive, and we can't currently find the 2TB model for sale.
