The LC interviews are like testing people how fast they can run 100m after practice, while the real job is a slow arduous never ending jog with multiple detours and stops along the way.

But yeah that's the game you have to play now if you want the top $$$ at one of the SMEGMA companies.

I wrote (for example) my 2D game engine from scratch (3rd party libs excluded)

but would not be able to pass a LC type interview that requires multiple LC hard solutions and a couple of backflips on top. But that's fine, I've accepted that.
