Study Guide
Recently, I've started to rouse from my hibernation. As I tend to be slightly eclectic and eccentric, I want to organize (or at least document) my approach to preparing to re-join the workforce as a software engineer.
I'll aim to update this page over time.
Interview practice
- Leetcode/Neetcode, leveraging llms for interactive problem solving and hints.
Books
Done:
- Machine Learning (MIT Essential Knowledge): finished; relatively recent, solid high level intro to ML for someone without the background.
- 7 Concurrency Models in 7 Weeks: finished; interesting read, my first intro to CSP.
In-progress:
- System Design Interview: halfway through.
Queued:
- 7 Databases in 7 Weeks
- Architecture of Open Source Applications
Projects
Before you ask, yes, I do like to name things "simple xyz" - as a reaction to the ballooning complexity of most software products.
Etc
- Studying outside the home: coming from years of remote work, I am re-familiarizing myself with in-person work (cheers to Panera sip club!)
