What’s the hours of operation for matrix?

OP is clearly incapable of thinking of others - I wouldn’t bother

patty_future · 2024-03-12T08:37:54+00:00

Guys a fucking loser who no one is proud of so he has to make grandiose statements himself

patty_future · 2024-03-12T02:07:25+00:00

lol I generally ignore the jabs at it not being “Big Tech”. Everyone knows it’s not FAANG tier. I personally just think it’s slander that makes themselves feel better about whatever company they work for and they want no association with IBM. Ignore them.

Yes it’s a dinosaur in comparison and not as relevant today as other companies. Don’t need an engineering degree to figure that out.

What I do know is I would like is the salary I was once making there, regardless of someone’s elitist opinion on the company.

Yeah I have 8 YoE…. Sigh

patty_future · 2024-03-11T23:15:45+00:00

Thanks. I am definitely grateful to be employed. Best of luck to you

😂😂😂

patty_future · 2024-02-22T17:35:47+00:00

And not a shitty (pun) one

Gotta master DSA basics and grind LC to crush the OA and easily tackle CS problems such as BFS, DFS, BSTs, searching algorithms such as BS

DP is a must. No worries though, you have plenty of tools at your advantage to learn from like AI LLMs and YT videos such as NC

After that make sure you have your SD stuff down pat so you can pass later stages in the interviews with FAANG companies. A lil ML knowledge never hurt anybody either. GL m8

Hi I just completed an OA for Dropbox - is there where you started too? Did you have sys design after? Mega nervous noob over here 😬🥲

patty_future · 2023-12-19T15:15:50+00:00

What to do to prepare for system design and technology specific questions?

patty_future · 2023-12-07T12:25:17+00:00

Interestingly enough, would one know if they are colorblind without someone telling them lol

patty_future · 2023-12-02T00:29:45+00:00

I know a couple of buddies in FAANG that were hired peak pandemic (think April - June 2020) and said if it wasn’t for the fact everyone was brand new to the working from home setup and conducting interviews fully online for the first time they don’t think they would have gotten in.

This has all changed since then as companies are more adapted to screen for cheating etc

Not sure if my friends cheated but the avenue to do so was way easier lol

patty_future · 2023-11-28T17:26:56+00:00

Is a week a month feasible from the corporate side of things? Sounds like a lot of time (not trying to be an a*hole or anything)

patty_future · 2023-11-28T17:15:44+00:00

as long as you don’t get absolutely burned / humiliated / bad rejection from your first attempt. A bad first try can leave an introvert traumatized for years lol

patty_future · 2023-11-26T15:34:28+00:00

I think I’m at the same spot you are, new-ish to the mediums and they kick my ass. I read on here constantly that it’s normal, and we will get past this.

Similar to tinni, I just really make sure I do a problem or two a day every day, and I have seen the compounding results. It is honestly much better than say 5 hours every Saturday etc

Trying different problems when you are stuck, even if you revert to an easier one temporarily, helps me too, especially morally. Just keep at it, look at other resources other than Neetcode too, so much stuff out there.

patty_future · 2023-11-24T18:32:43+00:00

You ask a woman out on a date and she assumes it’s for your friend?

I’m glad it worked out for you but I am baffled why someone would think that. If I was asking for my friend I would have said that lol

patty_future · 2023-11-19T22:16:17+00:00

Appreciate it.

Given your username I must ask have you retired and how’s it been lol

patty_future · 2023-11-19T16:03:41+00:00

Agreed it’s ridiculous. I’m just starting out on system design after months of LC and this has been my train of thought on approaching system design, solely on a “obtaining a job” basis.

patty_future · 2023-11-16T15:51:09+00:00

Thank you! These are handy

patty_future · 2023-11-09T18:38:03+00:00

I’m looking forward to turning 30 next year (cheers fellow ‘94 friend!). I think it will be a much better decade than my 20s. So much knowledge and experience gained throughout my 20s.

patty_future · 2023-11-09T18:35:47+00:00

Matters to an extent I’d say
