one question
you recommended docker to use ubuntu on macbook pro right
i promise no follow up
Welcome to the club
what are you doing with it
stripe full
for my linux class
ill look up the topics
for linux class
you can just use macos terminal then
no need to install anything
but sudo isnt a command on mac etc
has anyone in here applied to ibm
i applied to their backend developer internship and i went to check today and it says im no longer under consideration but theres a new internship that it says im under review for
but i didnt apply to the new internship
why do you need to swtich distro
really
try it
you can't macos sandboxes you
wait you don't need 100% to pass oas? imma do them now
i shouldve done palantir
i swear as a soph 100% and still got ghosted a ton
was what
commands that are diff on macos
some are different
like the package manager is brew or macports
but for your class most are the same
some of it is writing bash scripts should be the same
i dont wanna rely on "should be the same" for the exams tho
worry about it later
as you practice you should get an understanding of what is unix and what is linux specific
then just get docker container for exam
i know how to use the terminal
ok thanks i was confused for a second
just write your own terminal program
of course
or ocaml
but in uni they'll make you do it in C if you take OS
my profs research paper was a shell in OCaml
he redid the terminal as stateless
sick
it is
yes its garbage collected although functinoal programming uses stack more bc recursino
so gc doesn't happen as much
can't this just be unravelled by the compiler?
i'm probably wrong tho
don't know enough about it lol
is the chewy sparkhire automatic
Wdym unravelled
I seem to remember some compilers can optimise recursive calls by essentially replacing them with iterative solutions that don't use the stack
but i'm probably just thinking of random shit so nvm
i doubt it
thats true
i think thats tail end optimization
but not all recursion is tail end
Yes this happens but i was talking about garbage collection
ah fair
got to do pinterest oa i forgor
have any of yall ever cold emailed recruiters
days back
already got answered but yeah im in the same situation. they said theyre gonna review the applications again and then decide if they will ask you for an interview or not
Hey people.
Does anyone know if Snap has a summer internship?
yes a bunch

for amazon?
radix sort
radix sort
radix sort
๐
what company
they assumed you liked python more
guys i got radix interview
your kidding
s = s[::-1]
are you mocking me cuz i did same thing with meta
is LinkedIn intern bar high?
use lambda next line
looking at linkedin tagged on LC seems like it's highsh 
yes
both
meta is full
intern bar is high in that its hard to pass resume i think
but i think interviews are RNG so

yo baller, how was cit phone?
wait is full too
How did that workout?
2 lc meds in 1 hour, but it should be 1 med in 45 mins
oh no news yet
i full solved both but am ghosted
Were you at least able to find what was wrong?
sorry if im making u relive trauma ๐
but did you compare the two functions?
def reverse_string(s):
s = list(s)
for i in range(len(s)):
for j in range(len(s)):
if j == len(s)-1-i:
tmp = s[i]
s[i] = s[j]
s[j] = tmp
break
ans = ""
for x in s:
ans += x
return ans
guys rate my code
ugly
๐ข
summer?
this is what i did in my jane street interview
hopefully that's enough
yea
how did you do this in quadratic time
so vexor wheres your pfp from
Pfp is rose from black pink, stop asking
wtf
It's okay. Hopefully you learned something?
If you're being hard on yourself then don't be
lmao the inner loop
no
oh ok
EDT is during daylight savings
EST is not
and not all places follow daylight savings
right now EDT == EST in US i think
how do u solve find first nonrepeating character in a string in one go?
ok thanks
in one pass?
hashmap you can do it O(n)
hashmap and then sort the entries in a list maybe
hashmap
ye
go through string backwards + hashset
ye
uh
who pinged
go through your hashmap and see which one has frequency 1
is it possible to construct heap in O(log n) time
heapify takes O(n)
can you make it faster
heap construction is minimum O(n) i think
ur just not good enuf to make it logn
Colin cant
If you can handle n elements in log(n) that would break reality
at least he admitted
do it
P=NP first
send me the code not in java
P=NP is true for N=1
i can do python
ok
P=NP is true for P=0
woah
upload to Google drive and send link here
no
wtf
wtf
rejected
ramp might as well not even have an app if they just reject everybody
i was gonna apply but then i saw they had essay questions
and gave up
man im stressing tf out rn
i have amzn interview in 90 min
townofsalemhitmeupthanks
ask @uneven sand for hints
no
plz
blind 75 in 75 minutes
Anybody do the Unity codility? How was it
you'll be fine
hopefully
usually they ask lc easy/medium
honestly its dependent on the question
lowkey if i get anything super ds heavy
im probably gonna bomb it
also @uneven sand what type of fundamental questions do they ask
the grind 75 website is very helpful
amazon just asks behavioral (lp) and leetcode
are you upset that you peed your pants
true, weed out question
does the optiver panel matter
did u have the interview?
no
f
=//
they gave me 2 lc hards ๐
Wait really?
Ur actually not capping,v
but i didn't fully solve second
last year i got some problem bit tougher than concatenated words
When did this update for you
yeah c1 better
skill issue
@uneven sand hey mind if i dm, don't worry i already have an offer from amazon
literlaly yield protection
when did this update, also when was ur interview what day
they would rather hire ppl who can only solve lc easies and wont renege
yeah no update for me
no update either
donโt ask, itโs full
mine was copy pasted from lc
amazon full
literally copy pasted
Anyone knows how greater imc return intern offer is compared to non-return new grad offers?

Hahaha I got rejected before OA ๐

@rustic topaz
so no amazon decision wave today as well?
ig not
solve it recursively
has anyone heard from amazon recently and like
then throw cache decorator
not been waitlisted
never even heard of a cache decorator
no idea
did you guys have referral
anyone take the mathworks interview?
does anyone know if jane street schedules calls to reject ppl after final
or would they just email u
It's just 1 question
dp
i figured it out, it was fibonacci sequence
O
Yeah dp is probaby like the "standard" way which can be generalized, but yeah theres definitely some pattern like fibonacci for 1 or 2 steps only
whats dp
dyanmic programing
You're confusing it with palantir's karat
Pretty sure duolingo karat needs the lc done. Time and space don't matter
lol
Offer incoming @slow quarry
when did you do your batch day lol. I've been sitting since sep 1st lol
same sep 1
buddies LOL
ik 2 other ppl still waiitng from sep 1
naw we were 2nd
i just got an email from amazon saying I would still be considered for their front-end internship but on my portal it says im no longer under consideration
wait tf? the interviewer said
and its said that for like a month or something
they just started interviews on sep 1st
has anyone else gotten that email
the harvard kid here interviewed earlier than us
lawrence bacow
Anyone know anyone that took the frontend linkedin intern interview? I stg i cant find anyone and no one knows ANYTHING lol
what is gladge lol
Are they giving you an option? ๐ค
yeah
where is this for?
ah
what team? just curious since i thought team matching was happening later
most teams are split/remote with only a few that are majority SF
GLGL
u got dis
why does path ai 2nd question have to be annoying
i feel
which Amazon org is easy to get in and has good WLB ?
all team dependent
and you don't get to choose
mobile
๐ฟ
its like 10 ppl
ya xd
is 'team' same as organization/ PA ?
amazon no update today? no moving no offer?
yes
you get a SDE offer
They put you wherever
how many internships have yall applied to
more than a lot
a lot
@rustic topaz nefew check
are you trolling about amazon
n3, vexor, soulkss all rejected from amazon ?
yes
yea the guy who is doing js and citadel
no way vexor isnt trolling right
goku is intelligent, it's just that he hasn't taken DSA yet
ye
LOL
Ya still acts lik a dumass
Maybe Iโll land just one quant like n3 my last year
Gonna get banned within a week prob
i talked to him in vc one time he is actually a dumbass
not intelligently
but like
No goku def dum
he talks like a dumbass
Goku is actually slow but itโs alright
But they ain't completely braindead
be like @uneven sand , get quant sophomore yr
Everyone shines in their own way
quant sophomore year to rejected from amazon junior year
tbf, he got 2 lc hards in a 25 min interview
and a 20 min behavioural (5 lp questions)
Nah Amazon def not lite
it is rng
Oh i was off lol
how does someone get level order traversal and pass
but you can solve a hard and almost another hard and fail
wow really ?
is it that they are dumb as fck or that they dont have consistent standards
for internship ?
hes totally trolling
some of my friend even get merge 2sorted list
I like
bruh really ?
unbelivable
bruhhhhh
ksum
follow up -> solve 6 sum -> solve 7 sum
can't understand why some people get lc hard and fail when they are really good
keep adding more for loops 
and u have to figure out urself that the real problem is ksum
otherwise, they're gonna keep increasing the n sums as followup
or its a test of willpower who gives up first
the interviewer asking follow ups or the interviewee adding loops
thats one of the amazon lps
i think
LP 7: never gonna give u up
it's LP 7
did i just get Rick Rolled!
yes
gl 
always apply
i switched from matsci/mechE and i just threw myself into trying, youre gonna be more than fine
i think
ah damn1 that's so sad man :(
Kk
byteboard sorry
im sorry you have to go through that
sending love โค๏ธ you can do it
you should post that on linkedin so I can support your post and share it
so inspirational
commenting for better reach
do they know u ar e a sophomore
just reminding u remember how helpful I was throughout your journey. I think i deserve 50% of your salary but im generous so ill take only a referral
i know you still think about me ;,(
@inner kernel touch grass
lol no dox
cope
does anyone know plaids interview process after oa?
what was a mixed bag of emotions
tripped over my own tongue at the end of dropbox phone
instead of waiting for them to say "it was great talking to you", I was the one to say it
Bruh what made it bad
its a dumb question
classic hackerrank where the question is unclear and you have to deal with input parsing
thats fine
waiting for a response form a company u interviewed with is harder than the interview
:/
i got past phone interview for optiver after calling them IMC
lol, based
lmao
i got the brute force and binary search methods right
but fucked up hashmap
cuz ive never done the hashmap version of twosum before
but I aced the LP and he seemed really nice and helpful
he also said he was down to connect on linkedIn
so thats a positive
that sounds really good
๐ offer plz
how many lp questions do they ask
tbh i got asked like 5
fk
i dont have 5 interesting stories
I LITERALLY NEVER EXPECTED IT TO BE A THING BRUH
Does anyone know whatโs after Bloomberg
tell the mom about the egg drop problem 5 times
are you a sophmore
Hired on the spot
ah
cuz im a premed/cs double
super egg drop with 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 eggs
this sounds like hell
super egg drop but every time you drop an egg it cracks slightly no matter what
leetcode omega hard
huh
i always say that
its not a big deal
i think they blacklisted you @low vale
thats fine
chad move
i said it before for a diff company
you ahve places to be
got final
wait actually why am i worrying
exactly
theres bigger things to worry about
perchance
no
i'm memeing lol
im not actually that socially inept

Do you guys not end your phones with โbye, bitchโ? Just me?
I say smell you later and then show up at their house
I think its fine
mrterrificmiracle asks: Uber > Atlassian

the good ol days of my manager watching me pay for my shwarma
i heard stripe
only reason i applied tbh
last summer i met a stripe ng and he said food is good and all 3 meals paid
and someone on my team at uber said same thing
too bad i fumbled the easy shir fuck
is levels ranking even accurate then
whats msft 1st year tc
i heard ddog ng tc is lower this year
only 160?
only 160
in HCOL 160k = poverty
i mean compared to the difficulty to get in
Only 160 lmaooo
its difficult? fuck!
honestly its phone -> final
yeah isn't it harder to get into microsoft than amazon?
phone is usually behavioural
hardest part is the fucking screening though
i failed behavioral for explore 
way more rng than amz
160 isn't low, its just low compared to difficulty
how hard was it
oh
yo
yea just prep some stories for behavioural
is anyone here being considered for the Amazon APP internship? my profile got updated iโm trying to see if it happened to anyone else
i fuck it up too
just wait for email
money
amazon wlb is ass isnt it
no perk
like notoriously a grind
same as any other company tbh
pip and wlb are heavily dependant on team
msft i heard is waaay more chill
aws has notoriously aids wlb
fax
@plucky stag
just don't get pipped 4head
just don't get laid off from meta or uber
bruh uber was implementing pip when i was leaving
if you have a certain number of commits too low the ceo said to pip 
to any future employers that find my discord im gonna keep it 100 im going to do as little as i can to keep my job i got other shit to do
Has Google sent@out anything
pip
pip
yes
google sent oa out
Oh yes
Some people had referrals i think
I got this then oa

wheres bloombergs engineering internships i cant find the link nowhere
they told me they'd send oa after i confirmed
(Cope)

If I offer to work at Google for 10/hr

Sooooo
Congrats my guy ๐พ
yooo ill be in seattle too
I got it to bro
congrats! whered u get? ๐
yooo nice!!!!
I got Seattle, where did you get it
florida woman?
how do they decide location?
Random
you ranked some choices and then if you don't get those its rng
but it just says application submitted? Shouldn't this say like "Offer" or something
@sinful locust https://leetcode.com/problems/super-egg-drop/
I guess this changes when they send you actual offer?
I got it too with Denver, same thing?
Aint no way
yea you'll probably get the actual offer tmr
greater seattle area a W
๐๐๐
does riot ghost?
theres only like 3 tho
how long after amazon switches location do u get official offer
Yup
For me it was 1 day
oh shit
was it like next night
since lowkey once i get this offer im dropping a class lol
Anyone know how long Bank of America takes after first round
Next afternoon but yeah
I did my interview yesterday
Why should an offer impact a class u r taking?
since i only taking it for interview prep and my schedules already mad difficult
its like interview prep style class ish
my school has a class for competitive programming
Damn I hope I can get into a good tech/bank this year
just learn python
its a palindrome question btw
^
never get that error
๐
where is your check
to see if string is length 0
j = 0
you gotta check if the string using the j index is 0
nah that wasnt it it was i != j
i was getting an index for that
changed it i <= j
and it worked
yeah because if j = -1 then that while loop never executes kek
amazon big jokes
watching all the poor souls from 6-9 waiting 2+ weeks for portal change
BRUh its that eazy
ye i guess u do gotta get lucky
what does ur status say/
@feral void
fuck atlassian
i aint opening leetcode until the recruiter confirms there is coding for msft security intern final
somone got a hard LC
@feral voidyo have u done crowdstrike?
@feral void how>
bruhhh
Im tryna get in
from msft or atlassian?
msft
yea lmao
ur i and j will enver be equal if its even length string
i dont think u are doing the problem right
remember u are increment i at the same time of decrementing j so like 4,5 becomes 5,4
that problem looks pretty difficult
you mocking me?
wdym lol
your username
agreed
just look at the answers section
@lofty bluff what langauge do u use

Java or C
bruh
bruh
or C# if i get around to it
might as well do Assembly
bruh
Yeah
Python is just a framework for packages
how do i grasp the concept or pattern
id rather use assembly than JS
for sliding windows
I'm not sure how to answer this question
You need to do more practice
practice is for the weak
"or C" dayum bruh
like what wouldbe ur thought process
I like C as long as the structs aren't funky
I don't like to Leetcode in C but if I'm making my own program
then i dont mind C
- attempt the problem yourself (30mins)
- if you still can't get it, look at solution
- do similar questions
Oh hey a sliding window problem
bruh lol
There aren't any tricky aspects
I been on this for couple hours
๐
Too long
thats what she told me
Just look at solution at that point
ye that's way too long, i do the same thing too ngl
:susge:
lmao cuz i feel like im cheating when i look at solution
same
and still dont grasp the concepts as well
but we gotta do it
What exactly are you cheating
I am ๐ฟ
@safe minnow ๐ username

nothing really but ur right

YALL know any channels taht explain patterns or concepts really well
and understanably
you're not cheating, you're spending your time wisely. why would you want to rediscover every algorithm already created?
spend an eternity doing what was already done

good way to put it
gonna pull a Terry Davis
bro im like barely starting
blocking me just means instead of reacting to your message you get a response as an emote which makes a ping @random mauve
same
how many LCs have u done
Really?
I never knew it worked like that
if you block someone they can't react they have to respond
Oh lmao
@safe minnow u got final for Google?
50+? not that many, not that fond of it, but some individuals here have done 300+ easily
No
hi anyone got their phone interview scheduled with oracle ?
oh dang how many do u think i need to do to passs these codsignal and hackerranks OAs?
where at?
blind 75? neetcode 150?
I haven't gotten the OA yet
yea Im tryna complete the blind 75
