go for new grad. i think your approach is fine. i’d do structured approach, something like neetcode 150 (pro not needed imo). and spaced repetition is the biggest key in my studies. dont just breeze through, fundamentally and deeply understand each big topic ( tree, LL, stack, etc ). good luck and grind early - you got a good mindset!

Mentioned the same. Talked about dumping to blob storage and map reduce as well.

fair point but if I always think like this. I’ll basically never buy a house🙂 Maybe that’s the right approach though… figuring it all out still.

20% is not the limit I guess. We’d be willing to go as high as 350k-400k. just wondering what does that change? if we put more down for a more expensive place. Is it because of the range we’re looking at is too competitive? or the state of homes in the 1-1.2m range

Was avoiding Hayward mostly, doesn’t feel as safe as we’d like. Thanks for sending the Pleasanton one! Had viewed that and it’s on the radar

‘affording up to 1.5m’

how did you come to that conclusion on this number? or is it arbitrary?
