npub19qm2trjs3p32nwqwry4ufxl4fk9q4utkq53ywueg0yk8cvggra5s79sn8k (npub19qm…sn8k) arguably making a button bigger can sometimes be harder than whiteboarding an algorithm, but yeah interviews asks you about complexity of various algorithms, and corner cases where it degenerates, and in the codebase you find nested loops to compare long lists, brute force algorithms to find matches of values, and nobody looks into it unless things gets really slow, and throwing hardware at it doesn’t cut it.
