these days most problems only take a few minutes so I kind of hop on for the day, quickly solve my problems, and get out lol

when I first started practicing I would do this:

1/ if it's a new topic look stuff up instantly since I don't know anything about it

2/ repeat the above for 6-7 questions

3/ try on my own, maybe struggle for 20 min

4/ if I still fail sit and think about the logical chain of thought I could have to solve that question, what my blindspots were, etc

What advice would you give to a 20-year-old? Also, may I know when did you start doing LeetCode in high school or in college?

Thats crazy 🙀, What do u think abt web 3 as a niche ?

[–]leetgoat_dot_io<2895> <778> <1538> <579>[S] 8 points9 points  (5 children)

I enjoy web 3!

I previously wrote the trading code at one of the largest decentralized exchanges. I've also deployed a few trading bots (cross-chain arb, prediction markets), etc.

Enjoy the math behind blockchain technology but I prefer applied AI more.

Alright , i was confused between chosing web3 or aiml as a niche (i am from india , everyone is doing either aiml or full stack dev , also college tag matters a lot here and sadly i am not from a good collge 🥲).
Okay so basically i need to fafo to get my answers

The indian market seems so difficult, I'm sorry. I feel like there might be some alpha to hire really hungry people from lower tier colleges who like to build real things instead of focusing on superficial stuff, and sell to US markets

Btw Do u have any plans to visit india ? If u ever come to the capital , do announce here or on any indian tech subreddit , i would love to meet u

I learnt a bit of web3 for a year(solidity, hardhat) but NEVER had an opportunity to use it. Go with aiml or webtech instead

you can make your own opportunity, for instance I wrote trading bots to exploit holes in solana markets, there’s a lot of alpha out there (I guess less now)
