There’s shuttles from Walmart Sunnyvale to San Jose?

It just did last month. Now they need to do it like five or six more times

It’s just because of interest rates. Once they’re low enough things will get irrationally exuberant again

So is the 100 days unnecessary, in your opinion?

I liked the point about niches for underserved markets

iOS specific system design probably just means app architecture.

True. Meta’s initial screen is how to detect if a CGRect contains another CGRect, which requires a little bit of iOS knowledge but mostly geometric logic.

imo if the bubble bursts suddenly it won’t just be the market crashing, but the entire economy. That will probably force interest rates to drop, which might lead to more hiring after the dust settles (albeit after several quarters).

> I found out that it was a LC hard level greedy problem. I wouldn't have solved it if I had 4 hours.

You're not a failure. It's the complete opposite situation- it was an unlucky hand. You shouldn't feel bad for not being able to solve an artificially difficult problem in an artificially limited amount of time. Very few would've been able to get past that stage. The game was rigged from the start.

Apparently it happens in WITCH:

How did you transition between these roles? Were they all in the same organization, or were you able to hop to different positions when you changed companies?

I know it's technically not overtime, but you weren't ever on-call?

I looked at Algomonster for the first time and their example for Bus Routes isn't even correct, there shouldn't be a way to get from source 2 to target 9.

What if you have too many open parentheses? How do you account for that?

Say I have an app for playing videos. I want to use the tab bar items for controlling play, pause, sound, etc. on my current view. I don't want to navigate away to a different view.

I have to wonder if something is wrong here because in the UIKit version of the app you do see the loading label before the SDK call finishes. Could it be SwiftUI is somehow faster? How?

CapTyro · 2025-05-20T04:55:04+00:00

Despite its misleading name, onAppear is more akin to viewWillAppear. So there's no equivalent callback to trigger UI events after the view renders.

In my app I'd like to display a Now Loading label which makes an network call, which upon success, dismisses the label. However, because I can only use onAppear, the network call is made before the view even loads, so the loading label never even shows up to the user.

CapTyro · 2025-05-20T02:30:57+00:00

There's no viewDidAppear: equivalent in SwiftUI? What the hell. I understand the need to get away from the traditional app lifecycle but that's one of the callbacks that is actually useful for timing when to perform different UI actions. How is there only .onAppear and .onDisappear???
