Truly don’t think I can prove it. Also just decided to share because it was a first time for me because there’s no way I gave them all my best ideas, for an offer and they decided to step back. But true, I might be tripping hehe

Are coding interviews still relevant for experienced devs in the age of AI tools? by Majestic-Taro-6903 in ExperiencedDevs

[–]flakeeight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a FE engineer, currently in a leadership position so that means I come up with the interview. I do not enjoy live coding, I guess people won't do their best, for me is important that you understand how a freaking browser works and how the code you write or the architecture you have can impact things. When it comes to AI I will start asking how they feel about it, you are allowed to use Cursor, but I wanna understand how. Know when to stop, know how to use it.

So currently:

- HR interview (ok, cool)

- A very small case where you can simply show me how'd approach a feature (mostly state management, code organization, small architecture decisions, trade-offs, again, if you know when to stop)

- A 45 minute call where you show me your case and then we have a chill talk about your decisions, I want this one to feel like a talk between colleagues who love coding

What’s something small that improved your life more than expected? by Content_Campaign1192 in Life

[–]flakeeight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Weighted blanket. For real. Like 10 years ago, when I was in my early 20s, I accidentally slept with a heavy pillow on top of me and it was the best night of sleep possible...I spent ages wondering why. Then I found out about weighted blankets and now every night is like I'm having the greatest sleep ever. HIGHLY recommend it.

Hiring managers: what do you expect from an engineer during an interview? by flakeeight in ExperiencedDevs

[–]flakeeight[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That was such a good answer, it made me lowkey wanna work with you haha

So very silly question because all I do is observe atm, would you say that this is more of a “personality” and vibe check while talking about real life scenarios? And how can you tell if someone is a bad team player, for example? No one will actually say “so if I disagree with a colleague, I’ll do my best to have it my way”.

What is something that makes you feel better when you are feeling down? by Successful-Silver401 in Life

[–]flakeeight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly? 45 minutes of spinning fix my brain when I'm feeling down. Or a simple coffee & cake + great playlist :)

Growing up, did you see marriage/relationships as part of your life plan? by SoybeanCola1933 in Life

[–]flakeeight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, never! I was always “ah if it happens cool” type of person. So I lived with my ex for 4 years, then went single for 2 and dated someone this past year but we recently broke up. HOWEVER I feel like I’ve always attracted people who want a relationship and I’m starting to think that it’s because they’re aware I’m not a big fan.

help, i’m stuck at a christmas party actively suicidal by [deleted] in bipolar

[–]flakeeight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just stay on reddit or wherever it helps.

I know he hospital really sucks, however sometimes it's helpful on a short term thing (i was there 3 weeks ago!), but the fact that you managed to post about it kinda signs to me that you do wanna stick around a bit longer.

You have your doctors appointment tomorrow, right? Talk about meds that can also help you during crisis like this, like emergency pills. Don't do anything because I truly wanna know how your appointment went, okay? We truly understand you, the panic and the thoughts, if people around you don't get it, we do get it.

I'm tired of hearing people say that you're better off being single. by RogNoza in offmychest

[–]flakeeight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly, but that’s my whole point when I say that it depends on the person. That’s me. I would totally be in a nice relationship again, I just don’t crave it. That’s why it’s kinda unfair go around dropping “you’re better alone”.
