Your experience must be different than mine then, which, it's a large field so it's totally possible. Dunno, it'd be great to not have to repeat any kind of technical test, regardless of the format preferred.

Neither leetcode nor homebrewed are what we want anyway. But homebrewed is IMO worse because it could be a weird format and people have issues with surprises during technical interviews, least of all anxiety. And when there's a bunch o

We need a compromise where proven, experienced engineers can stop having to go through everyone's homebrewed technical interview and new candidates still have a shot if they don't have that credential yet. It should be up to compa

There's some cards which lasted a while (1080 Ti, or the Titan cards, probably the high end 3x series and AMD's equivalent), but consoles are made obsolete pretty regularly. It's more worthwhile if you haven't already bo

Housing has been rising for a long time. Wages have been stagnant for a long time as well. I'm fairly certain food prices won't be the cause here. We printed our way out of a pandemic recession, so who knows what other nuclear opt

I highly doubt Jack is doing this, but it seems like another good vehicle for money laundering. Here's an essentially worthless tweet I set at an unreasonable value as an NFT or whatever. Maybe he's doing a proof-of-concept for so

Agreed, plus the day to day answering developer questions is going to be a little more tame than if you were in a job constantly putting out fires or maintaining a tight and stressful schedule

Nvidia is in a "tough" spot. If they increased GPU prices to take advantage of miner demand, they could be rich but lose the gaming segment. If they keep the price accessible for gaming, then they end up dealing with scalpers and

I think it's more along the lines that a $5B/yr business would typically have gone to a large contracting firm, and the resulting solution would have been over-engineered with all of the front and back-end stuff and resulted in a
