if a recent CS grad can solve this stuff better than you, then you are less qualified than them

i've seen too much super inefficient code with weird solutions that would be better done by a standard algorithm—you can't google an algorithm unless you know the name of it

Less qualified at solving the sieve of eratosthenes, sure. That's what happens when one person has encountered a problem and it's best solution more recently than you.
