Was I the only one who was expecting Lisa Su to attempt Leetcode hard in this interview?



It is an interview with a CEO - expect platitudes and fortune cookie wisdom that contradict their own (corporate) behaviours.


As an IC this is exactly what makes 'fireside chats' with executives so unsatisfying.


There's also never an actual fire. Like at least put a video of a fireplace on in the background.


It's called "fireside chat" because of the layoffs. :-/


For the people downvoting this joke: the joke is that "fireside" means "the side of the people who are doing the firing". I think it's funny.


Not really. I wouldn't classify leetcode as "hard problems". Maybe dumb problems that don't really help anyone, but no, not "hard problems"


Sounds like you have beef with leetcode. I think that comment was referencing the problems on leetcode tagged with the "hard" label.
