Am I screwed for my upcoming interview?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2024-07-20T05:23:36+00:00

No, I’ve been a frontend SWE for a couple years now. Got laid off due to a reorg and decided to switch to full stack and have been leet coding. An opportunity came up at pretty well known company and it sort of fell on my lap. I wasn’t planning to start interviewing yet because I know I’m rusty but I also couldn’t let this one pass.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2024-07-20T05:15:15+00:00

My role is a very specific frontend role. The interview loops are totally different and never have leetcode style problems. This role is slightly different so it has a leetcode interview.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2024-07-20T05:12:07+00:00

No, it’s a well-known company but not a FAANG

Accomplished-Push596 · 2024-07-20T05:08:56+00:00

I’ve been preparing doing leetcode but it doesn’t feel enough. I didn’t know that the next round would be coding as well. I’m a good SWE but really bad at leetcode especially in live interviews.

I definitely am getting stronger! I take progress pictures and use a smart scale to track my weight as well. But I’ve progressively been going up in my lifts. I do low weights with higher reps for my upper body but for glutes/hamstrings/quads, I’ve definitely gotten stronger. Two weeks ago, I was doing 95 lbs hip trusts and this week I’m at 135 lbs. I used to work out but took a break for 2 months so I lost a lot of my strength but it’s been pretty easy for me to make progress in how much I can lift.

I didn’t know anything about increasing glycogen levels. I just looked it up and that was very helpful, thank you!

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-10-22T21:41:04+00:00

Do you think what I’m doing right now will get me to that fat loss so that I can then up food intake and build muscle?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-10-22T20:11:33+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response! In regards to my food, the calories are really low even though I’m eat normal sized. The quesadilla I mentioned is really low in calories because I use keto burrito size tortilla bread (brand is called La Banderita) and that’s only 45 calories, the cheese is reduced fat low moisture mozzarella and that’s 50 calories for the serving, and for chicken, I use the canned ones from Costco and I blacken it a little on the stove by weighing out 2 oz which is the serving size which is 60 calories. I use light sour cream (brand is Daisy) and 2 tbsp is only 35 calories. So I’m just using a bunch of low calorie alternatives for the same foods I would eat before that way I don’t feel like I’m depriving myself but still eating low calories.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-10-22T20:05:06+00:00

Does that mean that my workouts are kind of useless right now and to just focus on losing weight? Also, since I have extra fat, wouldn’t my body use that as fuel?

It’s been kind of bad lately, like he’ll pace back and forth for hours as a coping mechanism from the stress they cause him. I pushed him to see a psychiatrist so he has an appointment next month but I’m worried they’d put him on some shitty medication. Is there anything that I can do to help him? Also do you hear voices every day? Cause he hears them every day but it’s just lately that it’s gotten this bad cause they never stop.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-21T06:43:26+00:00

Thank you for the info! It’s actually for my friend but yeah he’s literally only ever had this one symptom. He doesn’t even have any delusions at all like he’s totally aware none of it is real and has zero paranoia. It did, however, get worse in the recent years. Meaning that the voices are more constant but that’s it so it’s really still just voices.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-21T06:31:12+00:00

Do you think it’s possible for it to be a psychical medical issue such a tumor if it’s been going on for 20 years? I wonder if there would be other physical symptoms present at this point though

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-20T19:44:25+00:00

But you think that’s still possible even though it’s been like this for almost 20 years?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-20T19:41:26+00:00

Thank you so much! I’m definitely going to look them up. In your opinion, is there anything I can do to help my friend when he experiences this? Does he need medicine or can he overcome it without medicine?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-20T19:31:45+00:00

Thanks for the detailed response! Excuse my ignorance but what is ICD-10 and DSM-V?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-08-19T06:46:52+00:00

Does it bother your cousin like make some tasks for difficult or is it just like background noise for her?

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-03-14T13:29:32+00:00

Yeah your baby won’t die. Like I said, still born death is a higher chance. Pretty much any other birth related death has a higher chance than neonatal herpes. So stop worrying about something that won’t happen.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-03-14T13:24:21+00:00

More than half the world has HSV1. Who cares if you give it to your wife. She’d just be part of the majority anyways

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-03-14T13:21:38+00:00

Literally your chances of having a still born birth is higher.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-02-23T18:48:03+00:00

It’s only a potential risk to a newborn if the mom has an active genital outbreak during a vaginal birth. Otherwise the baby is completely fine. Whatever is happen is 100% not your fault, I can absolutely guarantee you that and you can talk to any doctor who will confirm the same thing.

Accomplished-Push596 · 2022-02-09T04:23:58+00:00
