I second what nightowl_games is saying. I hope you are not equating programming with an ability to crunch through leetcode problems. There is more to programming than that.

There are plenty of companies out there which hire folks without putting them through the leetcode hazing ritual.

Thankyou. I certainly hope so. I wouldn't have a hope in hell of passing any of the programming interview questions I see posted.

I'm trying. So far my biggest problem has been not getting interviews because recruiters pretty much slam the phone down the nanosecond they ask me how many years professional experience I have so far and I answer honestly.

I'm trying to get some projects into a usable state so I have a few things to point to and say "well I created this and this", but I'm... I'm not fast at this, at all.

Currently stuck on trying to pass an array of floats from C++ back to C# and getting a bunch of random values and NaNs
