If this is what you did all quarter (and don't have any other artifacts to show, like an ML model or system design or whatever), yes it's a red flag.
It's not because the ratio is bad - if you wrote 300 and removed 19500 that might be fine. It's just that 30 is, in an absolute sense, too low.
- iopq 4y agoI had to read 300,000 lines of code first. It's impossible to do that in a week or two. The number of lines removed I don't remember and it changes nothing about the effort to read and understand the whole codebase
- morelisp 4y agoNo, this ratio is unrealistic. Either you're making numbers up rather than describing a real situation, or yes you're far too slow for me to want to hire you.
- iopq 4y agoReading code takes time, have you ever read through an entire 300k LOC codebase ever? That's more lines of code than https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/ https://www.gnu.org/software/bash/
