Interesting product and projects, amazing work life balance, generally good people
Uninspiring leadership, terrible middle management, massive bureaucracy considering company size, CEO is completely unqualified and demotivating, awful product prioritization, rampant technical debt, and no real decision making capability by ICs or line managers. Things used to be better, but culture and company has been on a steady decline.
I kinda know the methodology behind (downvotes, common phrases, etc) but would like to get more insights if any of the engineers can share it here #tech #algorithm
If so, what are these algorithms looking for? Any suggestions or hacks?
I’m impressed to how good the blind algorithm is to engage conversations, probably the best site I’ve seen. What’s different in blind vs other sites like Reddit etc ?
Hi Everyone, I am having a technical interview with Reddit and I was wondering how does it look like, is it like other screening interviews that all about algorithms and data structures or Android specific. #engineering #reddit
Hey folks, I'm currently interviewing for a Frontend individual contributor role at Reddit and have only made it through the first technical screening with the recruiter.

Read a lot on Blind/Reddit about Google being more coasting culture (outside of GCP). I'm not ready to coast, but I don't want to be Amazon grinding either. I'm just wondering if it's worth it to try to make the switch to Google. There are tons of esoteric algorithms I'd need to practice on LC befor...Read more
I use TikTok and I spend about the same amount of time on social media (IG, Reddit, messenger, Twitter, Blind) as before and less time on streaming (YouTube, Netflix, etc). Explain to me how TikTok is going to take out social media companies? It’s not a social network. I don’t communicate with peop...Read more

<;rant>; People on Blind who work at Hinge, I really want you to read this and know that your algorithm sucks!!! Hinge is one of the most ridiculously biased dating apps out there. I bet if you survey the user base, there would be one small lucky group that gets amazing matches while the other
There's this reddit top comment by WrathPie which makes sense: https://www.reddit.com/r/OpenAI/comments/1awz9pd/personal_theory_on_why_googles_gemini_is/ I'm curious, what's the technical reason of such inaccurate results? If the comment is close to reality, then is fiddling with input by over sani...Read more
I see so much hate on LC-type interviews, mostly on Reddit, Medium, etc. but I don’t really understand why. If you’re a good swe then shouldn’t you be able to solve some DSA questions? I mean like the types of data structures and algorithms asked on interviews aren’t really something absurd. Mostly ...Read more
Homeboy's an oligarch, in the same league as Putin, Erdogan, Trump, Thiel, Murdoch etc Twitter was excellent for free sharing of information. Extremely low bandwidth for use even in times of bandwidth throttling by governments, extremely good at content relevance, and unlike homeboy's shitposts sug...Read more
I didn't see much on what to expect for interviews at reddit and I'm unfamiliar with how these rounds are structured. - Are the technical interviews typical leetcode?

TLDR; trade volume on GME is *low*. Prices are dropping because of price manipulation. Media reports are BS; low trade volume proves it. Basically: hedge funds are moving the shares to one another, causing price algorithms to think price is dropping. Also, no one on Reddit is buying SLV (Silver). ...Read more
1. Instagram - Everyone uses it. Gen Z and Millennials especially. All the celebs and companies use it. Will always stay relevant for posting stories and messaging. 2. TikTok - Insanely popular very quickly for a reason. Still the best algorithm. Most Americans use it. Best for catching up on trends...Read more
