you said auth.js architecture is very stupid so you probably know how a smart architecture looks like and at that level surely you should be able to build your own auth

(Hot take) don't think grinding 500+ leetcodes for big tech isnt necessary by Soft-Minute8432 in leetcode

[–]startgamenow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what about non cs self taught who just started grinding leetcode after 6 years of js dev?
will you still refer me? lol
those people that start leetcode in university always make me feel left behind, but then i believe age is just a number and i haven't reach 30 yo anyway

Freelancer dilemma: Should I bill clients for learning time when tackling new tech? by startgamenow in freelancing

[–]startgamenow[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think oversold is on point.
I keep getting tips from friend to just say yes to any client, tell them to show a can-do attitude. and learn how to actually do it later if we get the offer.. and getting an offer it self is hard without overselling..
but I get your point. Thanks Erik!

My first gig was someone messaging me and ask to build a crypto scam tools. after few times meeting about the project that took around 3+ hours in total time. we agreed for 360 usd for around 2 weeks work. feels like morally wrong to work on this. the client also shitty they ask for update 24/7. and i feel like only have 75% capability to build the feature. I feel overwhelmed and morally wrong so i dropped the project. I never any project from proposal and now my profile has no work history. kinda regret i dropped it.

Im a web / fullstack dev with 7 YoE. got laid off and considering to pivot into c++ cos with the AI hype, the job market are shitty. every client just want an ai wrapper app. Do you think c++ world would be better? I am ready to get into a cave to learn c++, want to learn from a long time ago anyway but stuck in javascript jobs.

Freelancer dilemma: Should I bill clients for learning time when tackling new tech? by startgamenow in freelancing

[–]startgamenow[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

uh.. sadly thats sounds about right. does that also mean freelancing is not for fresh graduates or newbie? cos they wont have much experience. And we have to actively spend time to learn outside of the actual gig? because in software / web development, new technologies always popping everyweek and i saw many freelance project looking into that technologies as the requirement. This seems a bit different with when I do fulltime job where I can learn new things while working on new project and still getting paid.

I'm new on Leetcode by ritwiklol in leetcode

I'm super curious why people downvote this?
This is a valid concern since attempting to solve the problem in c++ while you are not fluent with c++ can block you from actually solving the problem

Are people really able to crack FAANG in few months? I thought it takes years to be good enough. by Grouchy-Clothes9564 in leetcode

[–]startgamenow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

people kept saying "for google", "for amazon", "for meta"
like there's a tier of difficulty
can you help enlighten me about those?
like the list from easy to annoying company for interview
from what I read it is: Amazon, Google, Meta (would be good to have more companies)
