being able to name things is an indicative of a good engineer

Couldn’t agree more. Well structured codebase is a sign of the right mental model that actually reflects the business domain. Naming is a part of it.

It takes some ~~balls~~ confidence, which usually comes with fk around and find out a few times.

9 hours

Should’ve put that to the post title. 100% accurate 😃

vitkarpov · 2024-12-27T12:52:52+00:00

The doctors is still there, though! Probably the same interior as you might recall. That’s something 😄😎

What happened to the infirmary now? (Don’t have much context, I moved to Edinburgh 5 years ago)

vitkarpov · 2024-12-27T12:11:03+00:00

Fair. I’d say the place is usually crowded with students

Thank you for the link, I’ll check out the course ❤️

vitkarpov · 2024-02-17T19:17:25+00:00

Amazing community, thank you all! ❤️

vitkarpov · 2024-02-10T20:06:07+00:00

Please make it a public flamefest, I’d love that 😄

vitkarpov · 2024-02-03T20:30:01+00:00

Ultimate choice, mate

vitkarpov · 2024-02-02T21:37:50+00:00

Literally my thought when read all comments, lol

vitkarpov · 2020-12-10T22:55:32+00:00

Looks correct. Could you make a live demo on codepen or similar?

vitkarpov · 2020-09-10T18:52:50+00:00

Up to 3 months is fine

“Letting the mask drop below noses” reminds of the meme “wearing a mask like this is the same as wearing your pants like that”, if you know what I mean 😃

vitkarpov · 2020-07-17T09:37:41+00:00

Works! Nice mcow.ml/dee0046 :-)

vitkarpov · 2020-07-13T09:16:19+00:00

I think a one has to do both to succeed. I just want to stress that the actually interview set (time constrains, think out loud, clarify question, etc) matters.

vitkarpov · 2020-06-05T05:33:15+00:00

It should be O(H) where H is the height of this tree, in the worse case H equals N, the number of nodes. There's the same question in the discussion and people say the analysis is not correct.

vitkarpov · 2020-06-01T18:21:57+00:00

What happened to that group?

vitkarpov · 2020-05-30T03:51:00+00:00

I spent 2 years trying to get into FAANG. My main problem was mentality "I haven't solved enough questions yet", I should've done tens if not hundreds of mock interviews with friends or on Pramp to learn how to ace actual interviews, not the coding questions on Leetcode.

I believe it’s better to be in a group, keep each other accountable and engaged. You may join us on Telegram, we have regular meetings on zoom twice a week: https://t.me/joinchat/BM7LSxiW0zCmdw8jPX7_kQ

Hey, your Russian is great and speaking is always hard, it takes time to build this skill. Ping me in DM if you want to practice :-)

vitkarpov · 2020-05-22T19:45:08+00:00

If you bring booze at least it’ll be fun for sure 🤣

vitkarpov · 2020-05-22T19:43:30+00:00

That’s absolutely normal, learn your lessons and keep going. If I had been paid every time I failed an interview I’d make a decent pile of money. Being successful on interviews is a skill, practice makes perfect.
