“Practical” tech interviews for senior roles (from my experience): DONT worry! We won’t give you any “leetcode” problems!! Instead, we’re giving you only 40 minutes to do this huge laundry list of tasks that are simple but hella time consuming. We want to see how fast you can type. So you have 40 minutes to write a mini app while we take note of the shit ton of simple errors you make due to the time crunch as your fingers burn through the keyboard and then wonder why no one can pass our “simple” tech exam!!!!

DAMMIT!! the only tech exams I enjoy are ones that involve refactoring existing code bc everything else is a fucking speed test! I’d also MUCH RATHER take these exams WITHOUT someone there taking notes like I’m a fucking lab monkey!

Does anyone here play elden ring?

Have a frozen pizza that expired in May, is it safe to eat?

Anyone who beat elden ring is a fucking immortal being! I keep getting my ass handed to me and it’s only the beginning. I can’t imagine anyone pulling this game off

Might be late but Zelda Breath of tne Wild is one of the best damn games I ever played in years!!

A Ninja Turtles Tiger Handheld game!

!dev I have mice in my apartment! Is there a way to get them out without killing them?

I felt like a Dev Hero after losing both my laptop and my car from the deer encounter. Really needed that delicious sandwich from Dev’s Kosher Deli to unwind from the stressful event. The pickles are to die for...

Resist the urge to post about deer on devrant.

Something involving dogs, deer, or sky

Luck, grinding leetcode and using the hottest buzzwords in your resume to spark recruiters. Or having Yale in your resume in spite of your major being deer fecal biology and a minor in chemical analysis of deer semen (with doctoral experience in manual extraction of semenical fluid from bucks during rutting season...and no it doesn’t count as beastiality bc it’s science and it’s an Ivy League study so it’s a-ok)

It all started when I was driving and wasn’t paying attention to the road bc I was trying to think of a solution to a coding issue when all the sudden a deer jumps in front of my car! My car is smashed and I call road service. They send someone out and as I wait I decide to do a little coding while in the middle of the woods with my laptop. I sit down and the same deer (remarkably un phased) charges me and kicks my laptop like a football. I suffered not one but two impacts from coding...

Help, again! I’m doing a simple ajax using jquery’s load function but for some reason it results in a refresh of the entire page! There’s no callback or any other values being passed, it’s just the url to the html file. Btw even if i reduce the html file I’m sucking in to an innocent <p>hello</p>, it still fucks up and the page reloads so it’s not like there’s some bad javascipt going off. This is part of a project being done using codesandbox, so I’m not sure if there’s something going on with it. This is my first ajax in this environment

Meetings about my dreams to be a deerboy...damn assshole rat sensei wants me to practice “discipline” but screw that rat, i want to eat pizza! Pizza time dude!

WHO’S IDEA WAS IT TO CONVERT HTML DATA ATTRIBUTES TO LOWERCASE! I spent SO MUCH TIME on a bug because of this!!! Fuck it’s all about knowing the nuances and tricks of the little web devil who lives in every browser

Best tool is IntelliJ! As for the worst tool, that would be the deer saddle. I couldn’t find a deer to strap it on so i could ride it. Sigh...you have no idea how badly I wanted to be a deerboy

My experience looking up CSS issues comes down to millions of stack overflow solutions I don’t understand that never work for me

ANYONE WHO ANSWERS IS A HERO! Im having a CSS issue and yes I’m a CSS noob! I have a flex box with two columns of data and I want the divs to stack when the screen gets narrow enough. The issue is that I want them to stack ordered by a data attribute. I wrote a media query like this

@media (max-width: 767 px) {
.row { flex-direction: column};
.row div { order: attr(data-ordinal) };
}

I want each of the divs to be ordered by the data-ordinal attribute (a number) when the screen gets at most 767 pixels or on a mobile device. I was banging my head for a while on this assshole. Can anyone find the issue here? I may have left out a few details but does this CSS at least LOOK ok? I’m new to media queries. PS sorry, whats the bot that does the highlighting? I forgot it, but luckily this is simple enough to read

!dev fuck the asshole who designed the final boss in resident evil village! Shooting this bitch is like shooting a fly off an elephant’s ass!!!! I’m about to fucking pull the disk out of the fucking console and smash it in shards!!! Playing hardcore difficulty btw. Fucking boss needs to be patched!!!!

Programming in the middle of the woods and getting smashed by a running buck deer chasing a doe during mating season

Should I eat this one month expired ham and cheese hot pocket? It’s been frozen

How to code like a deer

Screw it, I want to be a power ranger! Was facing a tough boss in resident evil 8 and a friend played the power ranger theme and damn that felt great! especially since I was fighting a frog like creature who sounded like one of the monsters from an earlier season who was also frog like and ate the power rangers whole. Yes I used to wear power rangers pjs when I was 10. Lol

A deer

Dizzy spells!

Sigh that melancholic feeling of being invited to a final 2-3 hr tech interview only to be denied afterwords. I feel so hopeless

Off the leetcode charts mfuckers!! See how the fastest on the chart is 116 ms? Lol

HELP! Stack overflow did not take this question! I want to learn code! How can I learn code if they won’t help! Question was:

CS 101 take home assignment question 1: write a function to determine if an array of numbers is sorted. The function must return true if it is, false otherwise.

@Fast-Nop , @Root , @theabbie please. I have a week to get this question done 😭

What are the best free spring framework tutorials? Baeldung seems promising but it’s too costly. The official docs delve into individual projects without fleshing out concepts which is a huge turnoff for me

I have no specialty, I’m a total generalist. Frameworks and buzzword tech is only useful to me if it makes it easier to code without extraneous syntax, or if I need to know it for the job! Recruiters hate hearing this, they want someone who lives, eats and breathes react.js! They want someone with PASSION for easier (or harder due to shit design) ways to do easy things bc ITS FUTURE! React separates true developers from code monkeys! You never heard of Deno? Serverless NOSQL? BAH! Back to your cave, you bickering caveman! MY DIVINE RECRUITINESS DEEMETH THEE UNWORTHY FOUL WORM
