That depends entirely on how you choose to define "fools".
- filoleg 6y agoAgreed. I am quite ok with being a "fool", if it means working for a FAANG tier company and collecting FAANG tier compensation. I am not going to disadvantage myself by refusing to participate in this on some questionable principle. While I agree that Leetcode-style interviews are not the overall best, I am yet to come up with an alternative that addresses all those issues without introducing massive new ones. So it is a compromise. And as long as this compromise stands, I am fully intending on getting the most out of it.
