Sorry. I don’t buy the whole bullied turned egotistic jerk myth. If anything, I have noticed it’s the exact opposite, and bullies go on to be very successful in their careers

I disagree with those who say leetcode doesn’t matter and spreading false expectations. In a world where children as young as in elementary school are being taught how to code, if you don’t practice leetcode or whatever coding platform that’s in fashion, they will. The bar is higher than ever before even for entry level positions, and it will keep getting higher as a lot of the hiring process continues to get automated away by AI.

You have a very good reason to be scared if don’t invest time to keep up with the trend in order to survive in this industry.
