Here are the broad topics. Some of the questions are floating in public, and have been replaced, but the general idea remains. - Debug an issue in a library - Balance bank accounts - Design a scalable system, and discuss the trade offs - In

I'm not a fan of LeetCode since it doesn't give much signal about the ability to do the actual day-to-day job. I did not pass the interviews at Amazon, Facebook, or Google because I don't "grind" LeetCode. I worked

I blog to share knowledge. This is akin to contributing to an open source project, but the project is all of human knowledge.

In the near term, no. Long term, with appreciation, yes. The bonus is paid as equity, not cash. If the share price doubles, that bonus is $360K, not $180K. The hope is that you’ll be incentivized to stick around for the appreciation.

It depends on individual priorities. Some folks just enjoy stacking cash. If you can do that, and maintain the status of being a top engineer at a well-known company, why rock the boat? Additionally, it’s really hard to step away from solvi

What is the value of that information? When I’ve looked at older commits, I either want to know about the resulting code or the context (e.g., motivations, discussions). A fixup commit, or some other intermediate commit isn’t useful.

The best time to stop the fraudulent scheme was yesterday. The next best time is now. It's better the Tether market crash now than after it's grown even more. This will suck for the folks that lose money, but it was going to hurt

Using your wealth to forcefully prop up your fledgling(?) career seems like an asshole move. Donating funds with some strings (e.g., put your name on the building/school)? Fine. Donating and forcing your amateur designs be used? Asshol

Why are those the only two options? I propose a third option: think through the idea and its success metrics; gather user feedback to iterate. At least this idea was scrapped before they launched to customers, but the Google Pay debacle sou

That statement makes no sense. The folks complaining can still buy those old pickups if they want. All that has happened is they are now older. No one is forcing them to buy a new truck that they use sporadically.

The Model 3 has an interior camera above the rear-view mirror. The camera is not accessible via dashcam, and the owner's manual states that Tesla may be able to access the footage in the event of a crash.

The answer depends on how many individuals had bank accounts to begin with. I suspect folks relying on remittances may not have been major account holders. Businesses will continue using the banking system, so those banks servicing them wil

If you’re in a developed nation, the only issue with a wire transfer is the $25-30 fee assessed by most banks. That said, if you’re making a wire transfer, you’re probably spending $5K+, so $25 is nothing. Those in developing nations might

T-Mobile: helping the underbanked. The others: profiting from interchange fees. If you can get your card to be “top of wallet” you can get a cut of every purchase a consumer makes. If you are a store, like Target, you can also drastically r
