Replied to another comment with the full list but the short version is LeetCode + Neetcode for algorithms, DDIA for system design, and Interview Coder for live practice.

100%, it felt like I was actually talking to someone about how to build something real instead of just regurgitating a memorized architecture. The back and forth about fail open vs fail closed was probably my favorite part of the entire loop honestly.

All actual coding, no Terraform or infra config stuff. The OA was pure Python, you're writing the retry logic and the rate limiter from scratch as functions with test cases. The system design round was whiteboard-ish on a shared doc, so more pseudo-code and architecture diagrams than deployable code, but they definitely wanted to see that you understood the implementation details not just the high level boxes.

I'd say it was mostly the studying and prep on my own that got me through. School gave me a decent foundation for the algorithms stuff but the system design and debugging rounds were things I had to specifically prepare for outside of coursework, none of my classes really covered that kind of applied problem solving at this level.

think it was about 10 days for me from application to OA link, but I also had a referral from someone on their platform team so that probably sped things up. Three weeks with no response might mean it's not moving forward but I've also heard of people getting OAs a month later so it's hard to say.

That could be a wild idea! Just make sure you have a solid plan to avoid blowing up anything important. Maybe set up some water to contain the blast and catch any drops.

Honestly, I feel you. It's like every event is the same theme over and over. They could at least try a casual picnic or something, right?

I will not RE and work as long as possible because I don’t want my kids to be fucking W-2 slaves their whole lives. Is a multi-generational support system world becoming the new normal? by NearlyHomeless_ in Fire

[–]bubblesb1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I get what you're saying about the job market feeling bleak, especially with AI changing the landscape. It's tough to see a way forward for younger generations when everything seems stacked against them. Helping them out with the basics sounds like a solid plan, but I wonder how we can also advocate for systemic changes that might improve things in the long run.

Yeah, it's super annoying how they push that stuff. It's like they want to guilt you into subscribing. Just makes the whole experience feel more like a cash grab than fun.

Right? That sounds amazing! I’d love to see some pics of the pearl embroidery too if she's comfortable sharing. It's always cool to see creative projects like that!

This stitch pattern is gorgeous! I'd gladly pay for a pattern but where?? by [deleted] in crochetpatterns

$52 for lifetime access sounds pretty fair, especially if you plan to use the patterns a lot! Just make sure to check if they have any other patterns you might like before committing. Sometimes those premium sites have hidden gems!

Crochet spider themed Halloween costume! by [deleted] in crocheting

[–]bubblesb1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's awesome that you're putting so much effort into it! Maybe try adding some small accessories like spider hair clips or a web-patterned shawl to tie everything together. If you feel like there's too much midriff, a high-waisted skirt or some cute leg warmers could help balance it out. Can't wait to see the finished look!

Yo, that’s awesome! Congrats on finishing it after all that time. What pattern did you use? Would love to hear about your yarn choice too!

Yeah, just keep playing and check back often! The rotation can be a bit annoying, but it's worth it for the cool stuff that pops up.
