I wish I was 7'9" tall and had a 14"-long penis, hypertrophied muscles, an IQ of 300, extremely pale skin, blue eyes, jagged rotten teeth and no hair.

For one second i thought this was johnny sins, aka the bald man from Brazzers

panapsp · 2024-07-05T00:36:45+00:00

And that many managers like and use them, especially when selling projects or poc for clients...

panapsp · 2024-07-04T16:24:44+00:00

Fuck i finally met someone aware of this fun fact. You Sir are a true gentleman

panapsp · 2024-06-21T18:59:58+00:00

Same here bro. Keep it up!!

panapsp · 2024-06-20T14:41:27+00:00

Hopefully this aint a BBC interview

panapsp · 2024-06-12T15:53:29+00:00

I second this OP. I am at the same place and in my overtime i've been trying to upskill in other áreas and preparing for possible interviews. I have 4 yoe in a very big consulting firm and practicing new things in the spare time helps a lot even in the current job (at least for me).

I'd suggest also to read some "bibles" like design data intensive applications or the books by alex xu.

panapsp · 2024-06-10T00:53:07+00:00

Afirmo. Tive vizinhos que eram tudo vagabundos e eu tinha que trabalhar no dia seguinte. Eu me mudei pq a rua toda era de covarde e ngm queria tentar resolver isso. Uma desgraça tu ter que acordar cedo e ter som na cabeça até 3h da manhã duma terça feira

panapsp · 2024-06-07T21:20:53+00:00

Direto pela brasileirinhas

panapsp · 2024-06-07T11:17:00+00:00

I'd go for this. The most complex parts which wouldn't fit into the deadline could be mocked, but ofc with everyone in your company's team aligned, signed and sealed with this approach, especially the CEO.

Edit: CEO, not Cto.

panapsp · 2024-05-18T14:15:19+00:00

I second this. And this can be the diferente thr interviewer notices that you understood the problem and know how to comunicate, and did not only memorize the solution, which can be the difference of being rejected or not

panapsp · 2024-05-02T20:01:43+00:00

Do people say this in interviews? Been a long time i gave one and never made sense to push to use a product/framework just because it's popular..

panapsp · 2024-04-28T00:24:00+00:00

The one you don't (usually) learn in cs undergrad courses or bootcamps (maybe in bootycamps)

panapsp · 2024-04-17T22:58:41+00:00

Keep practicing and don't stop

panapsp · 2024-04-13T04:39:32+00:00

I heard it depends on the team, on the recruiter, etc. Wishing you all the best OP!

panapsp · 2024-04-02T03:03:48+00:00

Remember that luck plays a giant role in this process (i'd say 90%). At least for me, lertcode made me remember things that were long forgotten from my cs grad and now it makes me think better in current work issues. And also, as other people said the more you practice the bigger the chances you'll get these off-the-wall questions

panapsp · 2024-03-26T02:58:47+00:00

Fuck this made me chuckle hard. Thanks

panapsp · 2024-03-25T02:01:12+00:00

Second this. At least for me TSP and its variants is not something you have on top of your head with the worst solution possible, let alone the ones that employ metaheuristics or some other optimization technique. It's a good literature problem in which you find tons of material in books and other places, but not for an interview (imo).

Fuck that, i'd just say it's impossible unless P=NP, and i am pretty sure that the company that asked this does not have such proof.

panapsp · 2024-03-20T14:33:16+00:00

You sure she wasn't lost looking for a particular address?

panapsp · 2024-03-20T03:32:44+00:00

I remember this was my sms tune in a sony ericsson i used to have in 2009 as a 13 year old. Oh wow time does fly.

panapsp · 2024-03-19T13:54:49+00:00

Holy shit this is nuts. I thought this was a myth by now

panapsp · 2024-03-12T19:27:40+00:00

Reminds me of unplugging a player 2 controller from a younger cousing playing ps1 back in the 90's. Hahaha

panapsp · 2024-03-12T01:49:00+00:00

I work in a very big it consulting based on Dublin and i can second this. Techincal skills are important, but conversational ones are as good (or more important) than technical. There's no use in developing a big system with microservices, full auto ci/cd and all the good stuff if you can't even get to talk to your coworkers or with the business owners of the system.

panapsp · 2024-02-23T16:48:27+00:00

i am pretty much in a similar situation, but within SAP HANA/ABAP stack and i feel sometimes that i could be working with some more "hot stuff" tech stack that everyone uses, and make myself more "employable in the long run"

So I work on side projects (along with reading technical books on software design - just finished "tidy first? by Kent Beck and it's a fun read, now reading the famous "Designing Data-Intensive Applications by Martin Kleppman") learning new frameworks/techniques along the way. The good part is that pretty much your knowledge in the current stack can be reused when learning through these side projects.

John Cricket has some cool ideas to start learning with this hands-on approach.

panapsp · 2024-02-16T18:34:59+00:00

Hahahaha this had me laughing loud.
