In today's edition of "oh my god everything is so freaking interconnected", I learned a W I L D thing about JavaScript's parseInt function:
You're probably already be familiar with how parseInt() works; it converts a string into an integer, based on the radix/base you pass to it.

I was rejected by Etsy one year into my career. At the end of the a long day of interviews, they asked me to code a CS problem (Conway's Game of Life) in a language that I definitely didn't know (PHP). #shareyourrejections
After the interview, I went home and read everything I could about Conway's Game of Life. I didn't understand a lot of it. So then I started reading about other computer science problems, hoping one of them would make more sense to me.
But even some of that was still confusing. So I started trying to comprehend the fundamentals. How did these algorithms work, and how could I better understand them? I wasn't sure, but I knew that I had to try to find out.

I stand by all the sentiments in this thread. 🙌
I've been in this industry for some years now and yet people still assume that I'm very junior because I give talks about how hexadecimals work (apparently that's "too basic" for a conference).
I get flack for writing posts about things that you might have seen in the first semester of your CS program (apparently everyone "already knows how linked lists works").
