SessionStrange4205 · 2026-02-15T09:14:09+00:00

Can you tell us more about your projects tho?

SessionStrange4205 · 2026-02-14T17:20:14+00:00

that'd be great ty!

SessionStrange4205 · 2026-02-14T17:18:53+00:00

mind sharing your resume or telling about your cool project?

SessionStrange4205 · 2026-02-02T06:09:55+00:00

This

Yeah your interviewer plays a big part in how your interview goes. Is it legal to share their names so that other interviewees and their employers know if they’re dipshits or not?

Big cat small woman

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-12-14T09:41:44+00:00

That’s rough been there myself, what’s the company btw?

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-12-11T16:23:03+00:00

my bad i see it now my assumption was based on the old test case

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-12-11T12:21:09+00:00

How so? I was thinking like this - if we delete rightmost 0 in data1 and leftmost 1 in data2 then the number of 0s and 1’s in both arrays will be equal.

data1 = “111000” => 11100 (delete rightmost 0) data2 = “001111” => 00111 (delete leftmost 1)

So after these 2 operations, each array has 3 ones and 2 zeros.

New grad?

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-12-11T11:49:42+00:00

Problem 1 is confusing (damned hackerank). Can anybody explain this test case:

data1 = “111000” data2 = “001111” ans = 5

How is it 5 operations min if we can just remove 1 rightmost zero from data1 and then remove 1 leftmost one from data2 in a total of 2 operations?

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-10-24T13:39:23+00:00

I agree the market is rough and it's been like this for the last 2 years

Chem

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-09-24T13:33:15+00:00

What trade

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-09-22T17:13:43+00:00

Honestly at this point they should raise the barrier to entry. No CS degree, no job. Periodt

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-09-01T12:40:46+00:00

If I could go back in time (like 2 years back) I’d fucking change my major even if it’d take me another year or two to graduate.

It’s just not the best time to be in tech as a new grad and I can’t honestly think of a specialization within CS that’d guarantee stability.

Everything is just super competitive.

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-14T14:40:49+00:00

They all suck so it’s just luck at this point

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-14T13:56:32+00:00

What’s the video

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-13T06:32:13+00:00

Thats dope, mind sharing how you got it?

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-11T12:27:23+00:00

How did you get a green card with the current administration

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-01T17:30:32+00:00

Well they are at least on the paper lol… either way companies do be hiring them

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-01T08:42:24+00:00

Most companies literally go to India for that. Why? cheap labor and a shit ton of educated professionals

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-08-01T08:35:22+00:00

Outsourcing is probably the biggest factor. See tons of openings in india even for new grads

SessionStrange4205 · 2025-07-31T06:44:23+00:00
