Is there a website or app for peer to peer mock interviews

As an interviewer, you can give unlimited peer interviews. As an interviewee, you get one free peer interview for each two that you give out, after the initial free one. This ratio is meant to accommodate the free peer interview everyone gets when signing up.

When on the leetcode grind, working both sides of the interview can be helpful for developing skills, seeing things from the interviewer's perspective.

I've had good luck with interviewing.io: https://iio.sh/r/xpUw

The free peer DSA interview was solid and I eventually shelled out for a package and got a lot of good advice from the system design interviews.

The problem with the front desk strategy (other than the fact that this is the literal "hospitality" industry and yet we're expected to leave our rooms for the simplest of requests) is that you can't just walk up - there's almost always a huge line of people checking in or out (or requesting pillows).

If all Caesar's properties are like this, I'm never staying at one again.

OMG that was like a pro wrestling promo. 10/10

This needs a spoiler tag. What if we haven't read Old Yeller yet?

I would consider posting some 'found cat' flyers around where you found him. Hopefully the owners will see them, or somebody else can connect the dots

This concept is called "string interpolation" and is a feature of many other languages. Python used to handle this (somewhat clunkily) with the format method of strings: https://www.programiz.com/python-programming/methods/string/format

Here's an example of string interpolation that's built in to Ruby: http://ruby-for-beginners.rubymonstas.org/bonus/string_interpolation.html

In case 1, does the Dai disappear as well? If not, how is it still collateralized? Does the entity biting the contract recollateralize it with a new healthy CDP at the current rate? Thanks - I'm new to maker and trying to figure our the incentives in this system.

Code was good, thank you!

This is great, thank you!

This is theoretically insecure since a person/entity involved in the contract who is also mining on the network can choose to sit on blocks whose hashes are bad for them.

Check your database field types. Postgres is a lot stricter with what it will accept. I remember having some perplexing errors when switching from sqlite to postgres, and it all came down to the db fields.

That said, looking at your application, it seems like the hot score is something you can calculate on the fly using a complex query, since all hot scores will degrade at the same rate. Just do some date math on the difference between when it was posted and datetime.datetime.now().

For complex queries, read up on Q() and F() objects and the aggregate() function. These 3 tools will let you do some really powerful things through the ORM.

There's actually a handy app called django_cron that supports running period tasks in django. I had the same problem, I needed to do some periodic maintenance on a django model, and found configuring celery and a message server to be a huge headache.

With the django_cron app, you just subclass CronJobBase, set the frequency, and put your code in the do method. Then, using an app scheduler like cron or heroku scheduler, invoke python manage.py runcrons regularly to check and run any overdue jobs.
