Discuss HN: It’s Easy to Brake the Rules

2 pointsby tallover 4 years ago
Virtual interviews have completely changed the way technical interviews can be approached. With just a few simple steps you can have all the answers at your finger tips.<p>My interview language of choice is JavaScript. So I went to GitHub searched for leetcode filtered by JavaScript and compiled the top 8 repos into one master list of solutions. https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;AlexJuarez&#x2F;solutions<p>The next steps are to compile implementations in JavaScript of all the algorithms and data structures that one might need to know. I already had written one https:&#x2F;&#x2F;github.com&#x2F;AlexJuarez&#x2F;learn-js&#x2F;tree&#x2F;master&#x2F;data-structures.<p>The last step is to feed all this information into your programmatic ai app of choice mines, kite.app, and from there magic.<p>This isn’t about ethic this is about acknowledging there is a better way to write code and solve problems. I’m not advocating for cheating quite the opposite I’m saying leverage all of your advantages.

&gt; and from there magic<p>That sounds like the underwear gnomes&#x27; business plan.<p>More directly, any sort of AI which could do what you suggest would likely be more marketable as a &quot;programmer in a box&quot; tool, and sold that way for much higher profit.<p>&gt; This isn’t about ethic ... I’m not advocating for cheating quite the opposite I’m saying leverage all of your advantages.<p>Isn&#x27;t that also what an advocate of cheating would say, when trying to convince someone that the ethics are not wrong?
