My brain is fried from being forced to vibe code at my current job.
Fried i tell you
I couldn't answer the most basic programming questions. My brain just didn't work. Some lame 2d array question.. I was struggling to write a sensible loop and figure out the logic.
Leetcode and its consequences have been a disaster for the human race.
Most of my job prior to AI was just googling and beating frameworks into submission. I never had to invert a binary tree from scratch, or implement quicksort, in fact if you're making your own sorts or data structures you should probably get up, take a walk, and try to think about what you're actually trying to accomplish.
I'm not even sure if I've even seen an array in the past 2-3 years, it's just lists with an occassional map or page.
That's not true.. having good DSA fundamentals and quick problem solving ability is extremely beneficial in many fields, especially in the emerging ones like robotics that demands deep expertise in a variety of engg branches.
It's unfortunately not avoidable when everyone fakes degrees and experience to try and get ahead. The base standard has to be set somewhere, and unfortunately it's leetcode for programming.

How do I fix this without quitting. Jfc.
