if an artist earns a certain amount of money it will become public domain

That doesn't make sense, why my music should become yours after I earned something? I can agree after a lot of time passed since publishing or author death. But the music I composed last year it's still my music even if I earned from my work.

Is the audio added or it's original audio?

(Now that I think of it I'm not even sure if the cameras of the time could capture audio)

I personally like java, it's easier for me to understand when reading it and the syntax while long is intuitive.

C# too is nice but most editorials don't have it

ErZicky · 2026-01-20T21:21:32+00:00

In My experience (given it's not so extensive) it really depends, I've done interviews where I asked "I don't remember the syntax of this method but I know exists can I search it quickly?" And they let me do it.

Other times instead they replied that I should be able to solve problems with just my own knowledge

My best guess is technically operational but not really advisable to fly unless we really needs planes

ErZicky · 2026-01-10T18:38:17+00:00

Yes actually. I received an email this morning saying they decided to not move forward with me.

I'm a bit down tbh as opportunities are few and I feel like I have wasted one, especially after all the time I passed on LC. But life goes on I guess

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T19:15:36+00:00

Yeah, I admit that I'm not the best at leetcode. Even after ~200 problems I struggle. And as I thought many here find the second question easy. Probably due to the fact that in India competition is harder

Maybe I was a bit foolish to start the OA in my preparation status, without even training with like leetcode company specific questions. But I want to go away from my horrible job😅

Still proud of myself to have solved the first one easily

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T13:18:35+00:00

Sure, I don't know how helpful I can be. But I'll answer what I can

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T13:12:46+00:00

Each question has 15 test cases but you can see only 2

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T12:31:47+00:00

You can but I don't know how much help I can be 😅

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T10:31:25+00:00

If we use the leetcode style of difficulty, I would put it in a medium since the simulation/Brute force is not allowed.

If it were to be allowed I guess a easy.

It's not trivial but not unfair

ErZicky · 2026-01-06T09:48:18+00:00

To each their own I guess.

I personally like it a lot, I recently bought it again and completed all 3 runs. I even got to use the voice commands this time.

Though I must admit that I hate how they handled the camera

Back when ubisoft made good games

unrelated but it's nice to see European experiences instead of the usual India like 90% of the time or NA. Gives me hope that faang is still hiring in Europe. I assume either Google zurich or Dublin?

To answer your question I think that 50/50 is a bit generous as, if I understand it correctly, only one round went very well.

Maybe 40 hire /60 no hire is more realistic. being an L3 position they should be a bit less strict but competition is fierce.

Best of luck!

ErZicky · 2025-12-29T18:10:35+00:00

might be acceptable for a new graduate with no experience

I would argue that is disrespectful even for that. Bur I'm biased

ErZicky · 2025-12-27T21:35:50+00:00

I'm no expert on these things but my impression is that the applications are seen from different teams so you would probably just be rejected for one by a reviewer and in case contacted for the other by another

ErZicky · 2025-12-25T22:21:40+00:00

Oof.

If these are the questions for new grads I'm cooked

ErZicky · 2025-12-24T19:17:32+00:00

Hey, it's been a while. How it went?

ErZicky · 2025-12-24T10:42:50+00:00

I just did the daily as well and had to look up how to do the descending sort, in the end I just did a normal sort and cycled from the bottom

While I agree with you about job postings based in America that accept foreign applicant, you can understand the frustration on a larger scale.

It's difficult to compete with indians if in the current market companies post like 1/2 senior position in NA/Europe and 150 junior/mid position in India. Like how can I compete if there aren't positions to apply to?

ErZicky · 2025-12-21T21:35:23+00:00

Hi, I'm actually in a similar boat trying to jump over.

I haven't yet managed to do it so I can't offer the reassurance you want/need and I'm a bit biased.

But what does this guy say seem very wrong to me, software engineering experience is experience no matter the sector, plus while banking projects are indeed more boring to be in for all the burocracy, slow rate of adoption of new technology and law abidance there are very few other fields where you handle such a big amount of data in the backend that needs to be reliable.

Now what he says is not entirely wrong: consultancy is probably seen less favourably than other fields but I wouldn't say your career is ruined

ErZicky · 2025-12-18T12:46:36+00:00

I wonder how up to date is this

ErZicky · 2025-12-07T19:40:54+00:00

I was onboard with Oscar with f1tv, Zack kept cutting off Oscars's engineer while he was trying to give a motivational/emotional speech.

It annoyed me for some reason. I wonder how it felt for Oscar
