问HN：如何克服带有冒名顶替综合症的职业倦怠
关于我的一些背景：我在一份工作中工作了11年，因感到极度疲惫而毫无预警地辞职。不久后，我因身体原因住院了一段时间。
我正在努力恢复，重新建立健康的生活习惯。
由于没有四年制学位，我也遭受了相当严重的冒名顶替综合症。
在选择一个侧项目以充实我的作品集时，我感到很大的分析瘫痪。一旦我决定了一个项目，接下来又会面临如何实施的另一个层面。最终，我会觉得不做任何项目可能更好。
在我之前的工作中，我负责一个关键的服务，形式是一个Apache模块。我可以证明那是一个相当艰难的环境。因此，我在C/C++领域经历了不少考验。
在业余时间，我沉迷于基于物理的渲染。因此，我脑海中有足够的三角函数和微积分知识，足以让我感到危险。
我对HN的请求：
- 现在的面试是什么样的？拥有一个可见的“工作”项目作品集有多重要？
- AI的炒作中，有多少是HN的技术爱好者在讨论AI，多少是真正实施AI，多少是将AI API拼接在一起？
- 你们如何保持对个人项目的热情？我的GitHub上满是那些完成了四分之一的项目，之后就失去了动力。
我需要一些希望，未来的就业是可能的。

Some background on me: I've reached a point where I quit my job of 11 years without notice due to sheer burnout. Shortly after I was hospitalized for a bit.<p>I'm trying to recover, getting back into healthy routines.<p>I'm also suffering quite a bit of imposter syndrome due to not having a 4 year degree.<p>I'm suffering from a lot of analysis paralysis trying to select a side project for a portfolio. Once I decide, I get another layer on how I'm going to implement it. And eventually it winds up feeling like I'm better off not doing any of them.<p>In my last job I was responsible for a mission critical service in the form of an apache module. Which I can attest is a rather hostile environment. So I'm pretty battle tested in the c/c++ arena.<p>In my spare time I've reveled in physically based rendering. So I've got enough trig & calc in my head to be dangerous.<p>My asks of HN:<p>- What are interviews like these days? How important is it to have a visable portfolio of <i>working</i> projects?<p>- How much of the AI hype is HN nerds nerding out about AI versus actually implementing AI, versus gluing AI apis together?<p>- How do you keep yourselves engaged with pet projects? My github is a field of projects 1/4 of the way completed before I lost steam on them.<p>I need some hope that future employment is possible.
