As others have said, every other request is a 504 at the moment.
But for the platform itself-- pretty cool that you have file separations and visual renderings, going beyond simple code execution. I like it. I tried build something similar on algodaily.com a while back, but found that my audience wasn't that interested in creating tutorials.
Some feedback:
1) I wasn't immediately sure there were multiple steps at first.
2) Execution time is a bit slow.
3) I was monitoring the network calls and saw no requests when code executed -- are you doing this in the client? Just a heads up that there's some security vulnerabilities to be aware of.
4) The UI could use some polishing. Maybe look for a color palette that blends colors together better.
I'm not as cynical as notretarded, but I do wonder how you'll eventually make money. It can't be cheap to manually edit 1,000+ resumes weekly, so it does make me wonder what the end goal is and what the paid services will look like. Maybe some AI/data play?
Your blueprint to good technical resumes is super useful though-- I run a technical interview course and mentor quite a number of software engineers, will definitely share out.
I used to use the ladders all the time when looking for jobs, so thanks for creating that service too.
Hard disagree. Building, shipping, and learning from my mistakes is the only I was able to actually apply anything I learned from books. IMO the best method is to do both - start building now, and read books relevant to whatever part of the journey you're stuck on or need help with.
> Having a problem to solve in front of us can make us tinker on it's available solution and that's where those tutorial come handy.
This is huge. Start with the problem and read/watch enough to gather a solution, rather than learn for the sake of learning. Reminds of me just-in-time advice vs. just-in-case advice.
Technical interview course that focuses on being accessible to beginners through visuals - https://algodaily.com - Imagine leetcode with a lot of hand holding.
I'm trying to understand why businesses would pay for these notes. The only things that come to mind are research/AI purposes-- essentially having a dataset to feed into marketing or market-research efforts? Maybe someone can enlighten me.
Same here. Staying in NYC to have access to headquarters and better tech opportunities. If remote continues after Covid passes, the Research Triangle sounds fun.
Surprisingly, it's the skill of doing less than I can. The act of holding back has actually significantly boosted my focus. I write about it in https://algodaily.com/lessons/how-to-have-a-slow-and-boring-..., but purposely moving slower does the following:
1. It makes you focus on the task at hand, since you're no longer thinking about another vector (speed)
2. It guarantees that your daily energy reserves are enough to keep you interested
Totally, 100% agree with this. I would even take it one step further, and say that there are really good tools for developing this mental model nowadays. I didn't really feel like I understood what code was doing until I used tools like chrome devtools, pythontutor.com, or algodaily.com to visualize and step through iteration. It's helpful to know what's happening at each line with the call stack, variables, references, etc. -- but it can be intimidating to start. Drawing it out on paper first might be a better way to begin.
I would imagine most people you know would have a difficult time running a website, even on Wordpress or something remotely technical. I used to work at a large website builder (think Wix, Squarespace, etc.) and it was shocking how many people hired out the drag-and-drop functionality for their sites!
Wow, the response to this was great! Thanks all for upvoting. Small plug-- https://algodaily.com uses illustrations and visuals to teach technical interview concepts. We're coming out with a book soon! If you liked this cheat sheet, you may be interested in signing up for our 100 days of free interview problems newsletter at https://algodaily.com/challenges/daily
