Keep improving while you’re waiting. Read and code and improve between each interview. You can’t lose. Don’t burn yourself out. Also, Leetcode can get in the f@@&ng sea. If employers are seriously giving so much weight to Leetcode tests

Agree with this. Ask the users who have stuck around with your product the longest. Their opinions are more valuable and insightful.

“ I think back on the deadline death marches and jumping on grenades to get projects back on schedule ... and every one of those deadlines was a sham” - I’m only just beginning to recognise this. I checked myself out from hospital early thi

I think whatever you are building needs to have a purpose. If you know it’s just a throwaway project then it will be hard to motivate yourself to finish it. If you build something for people to use, then the goal is to finish it and support

by dave_sid 6y ago

Very good post. I wonder how much these percentages would differ between B2B and B2C apps. I’m not sure I can imagine many people paying anything like $10 per month for a non-business app (not including Spotify, I see that as a special case
