It's also possible that I didn't "miss the point."

They did ask "Why not". It may have been rhetorical, but I pretended that it wasn't.

Of course, like all these types of things, I have my own approach. It's fine, if others don't want to do things the way that I do, but I'm not into playing "Me Big Man on Campus" games. I just talk about the way that I do stuff, and my own approach.

For me, I can't even imagine "job hopping." I stayed at my last job, 27 years.

If "job hopping" is someone's idea of a career, then I guess leetcode is the way to go.

But if we want to stick around, that means that we can't just have a veneer of competence. We need to actually have it.
