Worth noting that the author claims to get lots of job offers but is not able to "create an array" in a language of their choice from memory.


I think you're saying this to dismiss the wisdom of the author.

I think it's actually worth noting that you can be a very valuable developer and not remember minutiae.

For example, in the last few days I wrote in C++, Python and JS. Do you think my fingers always typed the right type of bracket to create an array as I jumped between the languages? Who cares.


I am merely encouraging people that read the blog post to recognize that the author may be embellishing some points.


tis the same brackets tho


C++is {}
