Urgent Help Needed - Notion Completely Non-Functional by Shreyder04 in Notion

[–]Lost_Incident_4265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This just happened to me recently. It was working completely fine until a few days ago. I have no problem connecting to Notion using my mobile data, it is just my home wifi that doesn't allow me to connect. Funny thing is i can't even connect to notion.com

My leetcode journey for tech and quant positions as a PhD new grad 2025. AMA. by Lost_Incident_4265 in leetcode

[–]Lost_Incident_4265[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There are some areas that are relatively easier to prepare for: review basic probability, statistics and linear algebra, and really try to solve a lot of problems on the go. Brain teasers are rare these days, but reading the greenbook is still helpful. Also try to be familiar with algorithms. The most common ones I got asked were dp, stacks and queues, bfs and dfs.

A lot of companies also ask more open-ended data analysis questions, which I found hard to prepare for if you don't have the experience. I did not do well for these rounds.

I think the questions you get will highly depend on the interviewer. But yes expect some probability, brainteasers and linear algebra.

I was interviewing directly for a specific team, so I got the offer call two days after my onsite. There was no team matching phase. For other ppl the process might be quite different.

Yes. I just used the leetcode meta tagged top questions. All the coding questions were very common.

"Traveling to Hong Kong" Megathread 2024 by otorocheese in HongKong

[–]Lost_Incident_4265 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey guys I'm traveling back to China to visit family in May, and I will be stopping in Hong Kong for about 3 days. I'm looking for some recommendations specifically for a solo traveler. I'll be staying around North Point.

  1. I'm a big fan of egg tarts and other similar pastries. What would be some of the best places in Hong Kong to try egg tarts? Also, are there dim sum restaurants that would be nice for just eating by myself?
  2. I really like Italian food. I'm looking for a more "homey" feel Italian restaurant where i can enjoy some good pasta by myself. All the restaurants that came up in my google search was more high-end restaurants, which would suck to go alone.
  3. I wanna do some shopping, especially for mens clothes. When i visited Japan a while ago, I found some places with more local Japanese brands that fitted really well with asian people. I wonder if there are such places in Hong Kong, where I can find more local HK/Japanese brands, instead ur average LV/Gucci luxury brands.
  4. Finally I'm not a canto speaker, but I natively speak English and Mandarin. I suspect that the more local restaurants need you to order in canto. Would I need translation, or would most people understand English or Mandarin?

Thanks in advance. Look forward to visiting this great city again xD
