taesu··on Ask HN: What to do about ‘Good at programming Bad at Leetcode’
I hate how the industry has become, but I chose to be compliant. I recently substituted all my free time playing video games to leetcode-ing, b/c it's the only way to become hire-able at any given time. I'll most likely do this for the next 10 years and then become a manager of some sort so I don't have to do this for lifetime.

Did I become unhappy b/c of this change? It's arguable. I'm sad that I can't play video games anymore but I'm happy to know that I'm interview ready at any given time, and can exercise my will to attempt to get higher salary jobs at any given time. So it's a give and take.

We don't have to, but we'll have less pool of jobs to choose from.

As for solving leetcode problems; it's just like a riddle. You become better at it the more you do, b/c you start to see a pattern. However, if you choke or don't get a question you solved before (or you solved before but can't remember) , better luck next time.

Thanksfully you've never been sick && live in a populated city in Toronto. Might be better in other places in Canada.

I assume the potential employer will cover it, so not a big deal. Canada's health care is not that great either. There is a saying you die waiting to see a doc.

taesu··on Ask HN: What problem are you close to solving and how can we help?
also, never trust orms. they make it easier to query but they do not use/output the most optimized quries
taesu··on Ask HN: What problem are you close to solving and how can we help?
You can take incremental approach and p.o.c with the data that you have so you can justify your move too!

imo, json dt should be an intermidiary step in db struc in rdb, never the final. Once you know & have stable columes, unravel the json into proper cols with indexing, it should improve the situation

if youre having issues with 5gb, you will face exponential problems when it grows due to lack of indexing

taesu··on Day Trading for a Living?
With big enough equity and proper risk management, one can do so. Problem lies with low equity & high expectation which often leads to improper risk management and a sudden margin call. i.e. it's really easy to make $1 with $1 billion account size with risk nearing zero, but trying to make $1 with $100 is exponentially hard & risky. These so called day traders opt in for later b/c they are trained by the course & society & influences to do so.
taesu··on Show HN: IAvisa – Explore visa requirements worldwide
Very misleading b/c layman may think just b/c you're travelling from A to B, you're required/not required to have visa, which is not true, it depends on the passport you hold regardless of your origin of your trip. For example, if you are travelling from Canada to the US, the site says you don't need a visa, but in fact if you do not hold Canadian passport, you may need to apply for ESTA.

taesu··on Use Vue.js with Pure Python
why not? the challenge was to run vue.js using python in a browser. If you, and it seems like you did, accept "running python in a browser" as a challenge, this can easily be another similar challenge. Not the project owner btw.
