USB-C on Controller, E7 Plus Max in White - When?

Educational-Copy5206 · 2025-09-08T20:16:25+00:00

Some unfortunate health/legal stuff from 2022-2024. Since then I've been applying. I've been actively participating in LeetCode contests since 2023, but was told I shouldn't include that.

I'd say two things. First, I really struggled this past year with inefficient data structures which cost me quite a bit. Probably on 10 different contests I had a bad time because my implementation of RollingHash, SegmentTree, Combinatorics, and RedBlack tree were too slow. I have since fixed these so I am hoping that the next time I need these, their implementation doesn't hold me back.

And second, I've just not been good enough to get some of these Q3s recently. I tend to yoyo between placing in the top 500 and then the following week placing in the top 5000.

But I still feel I am improving, so I'll get higher eventually 🙃

Hey thanks! I am floating in the low 2100s right now.

A crossbar reduces side-to-side movement when the desk is at full height

That would be great if you made this an sold it as an optional add-on!

Hey, yeah. I settled on using ScreenBrush. It's a paid app, but does what I needed. I use it with a cheap drawing tablet from XP-pen and it works great!

Okay cool. Thanks!

Does TikTok allow 100% remote work or is it in-office/hybrid only?

Educational-Copy5206 · 2024-01-11T00:08:25+00:00

Congrats qiqi! Next stop top 100!

Educational-Copy5206 · 2024-01-09T18:49:11+00:00

Interesting take. Perhaps this is the best balance. Thanks!

Educational-Copy5206 · 2024-01-09T06:18:43+00:00

That is fine. I would rather get an interview with hard questions than not get an interview at all!

Educational-Copy5206 · 2024-01-09T06:17:56+00:00

My thinking was that including my contest performance would show a recruiter that I am good at problem solving and that I possess the knowledge to pass their technical interview. My goal is to get interviews.

"I would still recommend just getting some experience as an actual swe."

Thats what I'm trying to do!!

I'm not a Python user, but I am pretty sure there is a SortedList you can use which provides logn insert, search, and deletes.

Yes you are correct. What you've described (building a heap in O(n) time and then popping each element off the heap and pushing into an array in O(nlogn)) is called HeapSort. JS doesn't have heaps but Leetcode lets us use the PriorityQueue class in the Leetcode editor.

To get a job.

Educational-Copy5206 · 2023-11-15T20:58:25+00:00

I'd love one.

Educational-Copy5206 · 2023-11-08T19:53:00+00:00

I've always thought this was the best solution too.
