heh, makes me want to go to a code camp now. I've got ~7 years professional(?), ~11 years hobby, experience at two medium sized companies. Spent my years reinventing a ton of things, and know a fair amount of oddities on how to get things done. Combine that with a passion for idiomatic, standards, maintainable code and .. i think i'd be a decent hire.
(Primary experience through the years in: Rust (current), Go, Python, JavaScript(Node/etc).
Yet. I don't think i'd pass a single interview. I really need to learn the fundamentals i need for those interviews. Feels like a liability at this point.
- Aeolun 6y agoNobody that hired me has ever been dissapointed by what they got, but there’s a ton of people that never hired me because I can’t tell them whether something is O(n) or O(n*n), just ‘faster’ and ‘slower’. Who the hell cares what it’s called as long as it’s the fastest it’s ever going to be. > Do you have options other than caching? Yes, but who cares since they’re all worse (for your wallet and for speed). I may still be a bit salty.
- croo 6y agoNot wanting to rub salt to your wound but there is a difference between able to tell if a car went fast or slow, or definitely slower than the speed limit, or exactly 58.4km/h.
- Aeolun 6y agoThat’s fine. If someone ever wants to know whether it was 49km/h or 51.3km/h we can figure it out. It’s just not knowledge that is very essential most of the time.
