on: Leetcode Considered Harmful
It is fascinating to me that people write books and articles on why "leetcode is harmful", just to have a justification for avoiding the hard work. It really makes me giggle. Considering that, if you are new to coding challenges, solving a hard leetcode problem can take up to or take more time, as it needs to write an article, I have to giggle even more. And it just shows me that the system works as intended in filtering out the lazy kind of people. Sorry for all the giggling but it is just so funny to me.

on: Why does science news suck so much?
I would also argue that science sucks in it's current state as well. It's all about Hirsch-Index. Looking as scientific and complicated as possible, so other scientist want to quote you and the Hirsch-Index rises. Also if numbers don't fit, they will be made fit. Fake or not doesn't really matter because no one will ever read it anyways. See the auto generating tools for papers and positive submission of them. This is by all means not the case for all scientist. There are lots of good, talented people there. But they get overshadowed by the previous mentioned.
