Watched a NeetCode video, need to get back into studying LeetCode
Watched another NeetCode question explanation. #betterjob
did a leetcode question, finishing my first full week of getting back into studying the neetcode 150, 1 Q/day
Created a copy of my NeetCode 150 Anki deck so that I can try reviewing the questions in two different ways: 1) reminding myself of high-level summaries of the solution and what I've gotten stuck on with that question in the past, and 2) actually needing to write out the code and run it against the test cases.
sent emails for coderstory interviews #shipit
Figured out a new approach to studying Leetcode where every morning and evening I write out the code for the basic component-algorithms of Leetcode solutions as quickly as possible: breadth-first search, depth-first search, binary search, sliding window, etc.
Spent a few hours getting back into studying Leetcode #life

Only got ~6hrs of sleep, so try taking 120mg of lycopene...emailed back the WorkTime rep b/c their software isn't tracking any activity, it's crazy for it to be so broken in such a basic way...ask on Upwork forums if identity verification ever needs to happen again...created a Jira board for managing studying system design...started a pastebin system for rehearsing basic system design patterns daily b/c that's been working well for studying DSAs...feeling anxiety today, presumably from all the caffeine yesterday, so I'm going to take some Caffeine+ capsules to see if the extra vitamins in it makes the anxiety go away...run the Algolia HN API request that I found in the hnjobs repo in Postman as a first step towards grabbing those jobs myself...spent 30 minutes feeling anxious about what the next step should be, thinking I should set up the backend pulling jobs, before changing my mind and deciding I want to be able to use a frontend UI to connect my email address and then press a button to have the backend send an Gmail email for me...
Studying system design, I actually like this way, way more than studying leetcode
studied a leetcode question
client work, studied leetcode algorithms a bit
Finished watching neetcode's videos on the "easy" leetcode problems. #betterjob
spent time working on my own list of basic data structures & algorithms to memorize while prepping for leetcode interviews.
