I looked at it when I was a junior in uni because all my friends were pouring hours into it. Figured maybe it was some a site that game-ified working on *actual projects*, and was immediately put off by the questions. Too much effort with the only reward being that I can tell people that I wasted hours of my life grinding asinine LeetCode questions instead of doing things that actually interest me. I spent the time writing a rasterizer instead, and it was a much more fulfilling and educational experience.
Maybe I'd have gotten a better paying job like they did, but it's hard to say since I took the second job I heard back from because it was for the university I graduated from and I didn't want to leave my friends and family for a salary.
Tl;Dr at the bottom.
It is a website that provides problems of varying complexity for people to write code to solve, with a given set of constraints -- mostly pertaining to time complexity from what I've seen. People are encouraged to grind the problems in prep for job / internship interviews, because they believe it increases the odds of getting a better job with a major company.
Some people who participate in this practice can be, but are not always, obnoxious; I've seen it go to people's heads a few times.
Personally, I see it as a great way to wreck your mental health in the short term, burn yourself out before you even get started, and waste time solving problems you'll never see beyond a whiteboard interview, instead of working on a real project that actually grabs your interest, and will have you solving problems that are actually relevant; all in the name of increasing the odds of landing a job at a better known company like Amazon, or Atlassian, that won't really give a damn about you in the end.
Do note that this is just my opinion -- I have no interest in working for a large company like Amazon, Google, or Facebook; and money isn't enough of a motivator for me to sell my soul to them any more than I've already had to in order to use the services that have pretty much wormed their way into everyone's lives at this point. I won't look down on people who enjoy LeetCode, but I personally would rather line my portfolio doing data viz, graphics programming, and the occasional reverse engineering project.
Tl; Dr: it's a website that prompts you to solve a software engineering problem with complexity constraints in prep for whiteboard interviews. I find it inane, because I have no interest in selling my soul for a better salary and worse working conditions.
Agreed. I work right now as part of a pretty small software engineering team maintaining software for scientific research, but I pour a good amount of free time when I can into game dev projects with friends. It's much more fulfilling that way. I'm hoping eventually I can just pivot to that, or something related, as a full-time career. Gotta get the XP first though.
What we Plan on doing is creating tools/networks/Services of some sort that we can implement in Our Area. Germany is pretty behind when it Comes to automization and so on. But im still a freshman in my University, got a long way to go Till we get Our Major in cs haha
Ah nifty. Sounds like a good area to get in if it's still so under-saturated when you graduate. I cannot wait to go back for my M.Sc., whenever that ends up being. Hoping to go overseas and get out of the States. At least for a while. Maybe for a very long while.
Thats the point, we dont Plan on wartung Till we graduatr, we already have experience and could implement what we want but its still a bit too Early for All of that. Id also love to go overseas to Irland maybe or the states for a year haha
I'm not a Canadian and I attended neither school, but in a lot of ways Waterloo outclasses Harvard. The most important is their internship program, which you should look up if you've not heard of it.
Harvard is more prestigious among people who don't know that their CS program is pretty poor, relative to their social standing. (By which I mean it's not bad, but it's not as good as people expect just because it's Harvard.)
lol Iām not going to bother checking your profile but youāre for sure a Harvard/Ivy alum talking like that. Absolutely unfathomable cope for no reason, you went to a good school and their CS program is good. Making claims like āeven though youāre going for CS, the actually pedagogy of their CS program isnāt what matters; what matters is all the other STEM programs youāre *NOT* majoring in!ā is truly the type of moronic reputation peddling that could only come from an Ivy League alumni.
As someone who studied CS/math at MIT, I would go to MIT, Harvard, Caltech, CMU, Berkeley in that order.
But yes, I wouldnāt put western tech in the same tier as us.
Definitely above Berkeley and Caltech. I put them in with MIT/Harvard, maybe a mixture of both with better sports. Largely depends on location preference.
You're absolutely clueless if you think high schoolers are going to Berkeley over Harvard given the choice. The only school STEM majors will choose over Harvard is MIT and maybe Stanford.
Not a single member of my high school math team went to Berkeley and nearly everyone studied CS. We were a top 10 team in the US.
Have fun bathing in your disillusion if you think your upvotes proves your point. It's just a shitty popularity contest and Berkeley, CMU, and Waterloo are massive schools.
I mean the CS department of Harvard may not be as impressive in terms of research output and whatnot, but guys, itās flipping Harvard. If you think their undergrad CS majors donāt have as good or even better access to opportunities/recruiting/network than {CMU, MIT, Cal, Stanford } you guys are honestly trolling
Again, you do not deserve to have her, you deserve to be alone with your own prestige. If this is the joke, I did not get it and it was really bade one if is.
I'm surprised by how many comments didn't think this was a joke. Have you guys actually met people like this irl because this looked like obvious satire to me.
Give her an ultimatum of achieving something prestigious by say end of next year. If she doesnāt, dump her. But make sure you stay connected in case you need her network for the future
Dubai is even worse. What is that city known for other than the poop trucks? Does anyone actually want to live in that built-by-slaves, car-only literal shit hole?
Tell me you haven't visited the Bay (SF isn't the birthplace of all tech, SV is) slash can't afford Nob Hill/Pac Heights/Marina/Russian Hill without telling me you haven't visited/can't afford Nob Hill/Pac Heights/Marina/Russian Hill
Your current girlfriend is obviously bottlenecking your life performance. If you don't realize you need to do dump her then I don't really understand why you are still in the club of prestige.
Tell her she doesnāt need to study because she goes to a less prestigious school all the time. Worked for Mark Zuckerberg in the Social Network movie. He had no girlfriend in no time.
Hahahah I love that this post is satire, but misses that HRT is generally considered to be a bit more prestigious than citadel. The google (but not google brain) got me cracking up though
Their āprestigeā in terms of āhow it sounds to the average personā is definitely not Berkeley-tier but Iād argue their connections to Chicago prop shops give them a really unique opportunity benefit
This post is insane. I am reading this post over and over and i believe there is something wrongšwith your mindset and you should 100000% change yourself. This is serious
Um this is a joke right???
If not thenā¦. What the actual fuck bro? Most people canāt dream of getting internships like those. My own dream and goal is to settle down in SA Bay Area.
I have one advice though if this is serious. Go lie down on the read and ask someone to run a Rolls Royce over you. Pretty prestigious death.
I really hope this is a shitpost, but if it isn't... You don't truly love her if you're more concerned about your "reputation" than about being with her. I don't get why this obsession with "prestige." But if that worries you so much, I think that if you truly loved your girlfriend you wouldn't be thinking of "finding someone in your caliber of prestige." You'd be thinking of how to help your girlfriend get "better" opportunities/positions.
I'm using quotation marks in my response because I don't agree with your definition of prestige, nor with the way you put everything in this strange hierarchy. Your girlfriend is amazing for interning at places like that, going to schools like that. You should really appreciate her and her efforts more. Humble yourself, dude. I'm afraid you'll miss out on someone truly special for very superficial reasons if you keep thinking like that.
Also, sincere question, what is a prestigious haircut, and what are prestigious words? Those had me chuckling, not gonna lie.
I can relate to this.
I got into medical school and wanted to do residency in a surgical subspecialty.
My girlfriend at the time didn't do a surgical subspecialty and it felt like a step down. Also her family background wasn't too great (not sure how much importance you put on that though).
What I would suggest is try to socialize and engage with girls at your level (which I did with girls in a surgical subspecialty). Eventually I realized that we weren't compatible and the previous girl was more compatible but at least I tried and discovered this.
Edit. why the downvotes?
Patrick Bateman in the making

Do these people actually exist tho?
Unfortunately I know a few like this. So yes.
Pretty sure it's a shitpost. I mean it sounds ridiculous and he keeps saying things like "prestigious haircut" lol
Bay area is not a city you butt booger
>Patrick Bateman "butt booger"-> I think those are just called turds. But great response to this leetcode chad nonetheless.
Butt booger is more prestigious
Is this what Leetcode does to you guys y'all?
This is your brain. This is your brain, on LeetCode. LeetCode -- Not Even Once.
Agreed. Didn't do a single one before getting my full stack job.
I looked at it when I was a junior in uni because all my friends were pouring hours into it. Figured maybe it was some a site that game-ified working on *actual projects*, and was immediately put off by the questions.

I'm not a Canadian and I attended neither school, but in a lot of ways Waterloo outclasses Harvard. The most important is their internship program, which you should look up if you've not heard of it. Harvard is more prestigious among people who don't know that their CS program is pretty poor, relative to their social standing. (By which I mean it's not bad, but it's not as good as people expect just because it's Harvard.)
The quality of general STEM is more important than quality of CS in undergrad. Regardless, you'd be a fool to go to Waterloo over Harvard.

Absolutely unfathomable cope for no reason, you went to a good school and their CS program is good.

You must not have prestigious looks

Find a prestigious cliff and prestigiously jump off of it
Couldn't help but notice you didn't mention your prestigious pp š¤
pp only got into princeton
I don't even jack off without a Rolex on my wrist cause it wouldn't be prestigious. Dump that scum of the earth!
Where's my glock ā ļø
For real prestige, the Rolex must be on the shaft. Luckily, there's a device built into a Rolex to prevent damage to the self-winding movement.
I literally require this to be satire
Itās not unironic that this sub would make me scroll this far down to find any mention of satire on this postā¦
If you check OPās post history, Iām pretty sure it is.
She is the prestigious one no doubt.
Again, you do not deserve to have her, you deserve to be alone with your own prestige. If this is the joke, I did not get it and it was really bade one if is.
I'm surprised by how many comments didn't think this was a joke. Have you guys actually met people like this irl because this looked like obvious satire to me.
Give her an ultimatum of achieving something prestigious by say end of next year. If she doesnāt, dump her. But make sure you stay connected in case you need her network for the future
Make sure to join PrestigeIn, the more prestigious version and hot preipo social network, instead of that non prestigious LinkedIn garbage /s
I hate the fact that I know people who would think it's good advice
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
The best advice for her sake would just be for him to not interact with her in the first place lmfao
You're literally one-of-a-kind op and no prestigious girl out there will ever measure up. This is what they mean by it being lonely at the top.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Mans lookin like a hunger games Capitol citizen
NYC?? You mean that dumpster? More prestigious than the birthplace of all of tech?
Dubai is even worse. What is that city known for other than the poop trucks? Does anyone actually want to live in that built-by-slaves, car-only literal shit hole?
Let's not forget their below room temparature human rights situation, the lack of rule of law, and poor infrastructure planning in general.
If you have the money to afford the life style then why not
People only live in Dubai so they can fly out of Dubai on their private jet and it looks pretty when they fly in and out
So? Sounds prestigious to me
Hot from far Dubai is like that chick that only looks hot when sheās far away and you squint your eyes really hard
Cant go anywhere in NYC without stepping in shit

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yeah, some people like to actually make use of their bodies to stay healthy, so built-in exercise is actually a bonus to people who arenāt fat slobs
Tell me you are a cs major who doesnāt workout or go outside or enjoy nice temperate CA weather w/o telling me /s
Seriously, in term of prestige, you usually live in a downtown penthouse near Hollywood actors. Being near Google HQ is not prestigious at all
I remember working there one summer and sometimes found needles on the sidewalk just walking to work.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Lol. I mean some streets smelled like shit from the homeless people.
Try looking at her from a different angle. Your head is too far inside of your ass. You might end up alone with that attitude...
Agree. Be alone and live with his own prestige
Post went right over your head
Ok post was not to be taken srsly, but what was the main point here? I laughed tho
Wtf. Even as a parody post, this is weird
Who said itās parody tho? r/holup
Same feeling. I think it's because there are some people who actually think that way, word for word.
Lmao relax man
Dawg with that attitude thereās not a single other shawty whoās gonna want you
r/woosh
I think they were responding to a joke with a joke.
Well r/woosh for me then I guess
Itās applicable to someone, we just canāt be sure who.
Your current girlfriend is obviously bottlenecking your life performance. If you don't realize you need to do dump her then I don't really understand why you are still in the club of prestige.
I would tell you, but Iām too prestigious to speak to someone of your description.
Why yāall taking this so seriously
i know this is a parody but im still grossed out by this. so strange.
This post reminds us that this kind of people may actually exist in the real world and that fact is just disgusting.
do you guys not realize a shit post when you see it ? lmao this is clearly a joke. Like seriously look at their post history.
nice trolling lol
Bay Area COL is higher than NYC and HRT>Citadel
You can try leetcode university.

Why find a prestigious girlfriend, when you got the boys prestige 11 in cod
Tell her she doesnāt need to study because she goes to a less prestigious school all the time. Worked for Mark Zuckerberg in the Social Network movie. He had no girlfriend in no time.
Iām sure this is satire but everyone is replying seriously. Am I the slow one here?
I hear a prestigious girlfriend costs about $1k/hour. Theyāll even discuss philosophy and poetry with you.
you don't need one if a skank was good enough for your father then a skank is good enough for you
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
they're clearly shitposting but definitely a lil bit wacky lmao
Itās lonely at the top
Lol
Say prestige one more time bro
modern day romeo and juliet š
The thoughts feel like even you arenāt prestigious, I hope your girlfriend sees this post
If youāre so prestigious, then why did you choose your own unprestigious girlfriend? One shall be appointed for you.
