Honestly I think leetcode should be reserved for the jobs where you build the Lego bricks (the MANGAs).
Anywhere else where you use the Lego bricks to build some applications shouldn’t really use leetcode.
If you’re a good product engineer and you enjoy building good products, maybe you should start a company to build good products that solve problems for other people. Let the engineers who enjoy building the bricks do leetcode in peace so that we have solid pieces to build good software.
I’m doing the latter and trying to build a company. I realized I much prefer to build products that customers love, and I want to build useful software for people. I’m not that interested in low level tinkering and re-inventing the wheel all the time.
Coexistence is possible!

- pengaru 4y ago> MANGA has built (or even contributed to in passing) basically 0 of the tools I use in production... Is the linux kernel a tool you use in production?
- samsquire 4y agoLinux kernel is not MANGA Otherwise could you tell us what you meant.
- matthewmacleod 4y agoEvery one of those companies (except possibly Apple) absolutely is a contributor to the Linux kernel.
- whateveracct 4y agoThat's getting pedantic imo. The original comment acted like you either build foundational tools at MANGA or glue them together elsewhere. Linux kernel isn't really proof of either lol.
- pengaru 4y agoYou: "(or even contributed to in passing)" Me: Points out obvious example to the contrary You: That's getting pedantic imo
- xtracto 4y agoDidn't know Linus worked for any of them!
- greenpeas 4y agoThe Chrome browser and various protocols (SPDY/HTTP2 and others though I need to do some research to know exactly which ones). They've also invested a lot in optimizing the JS engine. The Go language, so indirectly contributed to any tool built in Go.
- whateveracct 4y agoGiven the comment I'm replying to, Chrome doesn't really disprove my point imo.
