some common engineering things that leetcode doesn't test for

    - using http apis and transforming the resulting data
    - using database queries and transforming the resulting data
    - navigating a large codebase
    - figuring out what tasks are important to accomplish
    - researching things you don't know
    - debugging a complex issue
    - evaluating tradeoffs
    - general engineering intuition
