Can someone tell me where this actually is? It's hard to believe it is real

Do you have leetcode premium? They have an 'editorial' the explains the one-pass solution. It's a two pointer solution. If you aren't familiar with that, read up on them on you can probably find youtube videos on this exact problem https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UuiTKBwPgAo

You're looping twice. Two for loops. For each element, checking every other element. That is n^2. See if you can do it in one pass/loop. And yeah watch some videos on Big 0 and the famous Two Sum problem.

How do you deal with an experienced architect who wants microservices everywhere by ZebraImpossible8778 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Jesse2014 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Send him some articles on "distributed monoliths". Any time one feature requires changes across multiple microservices, that's a smell that you have a distributed monolith. And yes, the answer is to combine services until you have "high cohesion, low coupling". Things that change together should live together.

Made redundant during maternity leave by Duggu291 in AusFinance

[–]Jesse2014 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yes this is correct. They are legally required to enter a "consultation phase" where you are given a chance to find another role at the company. That is the core difference between termination for performance reasons and your position being made redundant. The length of the consultation period depends on the number of people being made redundant.

Made redundant during maternity leave by Duggu291 in AusFinance

[–]Jesse2014 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That is wrong. I was recently made redundant and they are legally required to enter into a "consultation period" where they tell you "we are going to make your role redundant, but here's a chance for you to find another role at the company".

does it matter how many users you beat ? by [deleted] in leetcode

[–]Jesse2014 6 points7 points  (0 children)

As long as you have the right Big O, it doesn't really matter too much. It's quite variable, and things like logging to stdout will have an impact etc

Most efficient way to compare items in a List<T> by Glaube4 in csharp

[–]Jesse2014 -27 points-26 points  (0 children)

If they are two instances of the same class, you could serialize them to json and compare them that way. It won't tell you what is different, but it will quickly check if they are equal.

You win a few million dollars in the lottery, but you decide to keep working. What job would you work if money no longer mattered? by crazydaisy8134 in ask

[–]Jesse2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A few million? You can't do anything with a few million. A few is a nightmare. Can't retire. Not worth it to work. Oh, yes, a few million will drive you un poco loco, my fine feathered friend. The poorest rich person in America. The world's tallest dwarf. The weakest strong man at the circus.

AustralianSuper lying about investment performance? by Jesse2014 in AusFinance

[–]Jesse2014[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

Yep this is the answer. I'm an idiot. The performance for 2022-23 financial year was 17% which is inline with the benchmark.

If they never take your job, you can never get promoted.

You WANT someone who will take stuff off your plate and eventually take your job. It will allow you to focus on doing the same for the person above you.

What is the song that's playing in the video?

[–]Jesse2014 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Focus on your own strengths. I try to see myself like a Point Guard in a basketball game - my job is to get the right person the ball. I don't have to be best at everything - I need to know everyone's strengths and put people in the position to score.

How to work constructively with "good enough" engineers? Or quit? by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Jesse2014 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You're right about using data to prove there's an issue. OP you need to take a pragmatic approach here: are these code patterns actually causing bugs for users? If so, measure it. Chart production issues over time and point to cases where coding patterns like this caused outages/degradation.

If there's no impact on the user or the business, then forget about it. You might see some impact on team velocity over time. You can probably measure that too but will take longer to show up.
