One of the few things that developers can agree on is that the interview process is terribly broken. There are ideas about how to fix it but the ...

I completely agree, plus I'd be bloody useless on Codewars if I didn't have a couple search algorithms under my belt 🤣
Hah true! Also, advent of code is coming up soon. I really want to finish this year!
urgh, advent of code takes over my life every year, and I can never bloody finish it.
I love advent of code, I've also never been able to finish :)
Also, if you like codewars check out my site Coderbyte I think you'd enjoy all the challenges we have!
Ooh, cool! Will do, thanks!
I'm over a decade into my career and I still can't remember Big O. I would have to make a video tutorial series just to prove I had the knowledge at one point because its information that just doesn't stick.
That handful of times I needed to optimize something it was very easy to find that information online.
I literally use Cracking The Coding Interview to prop up my monitor and I've gotten more value out of that.
We can agree that there is value in knowing Big O and algorithms though it's questionable its effectiveness of choosing good candidates in the interview process.
Its normally boils down to "I took CompSci in Uni and they drilled me on these things, and so you need to know what I know and think like I think or you must not be able to program"
I'd watch that series!
