Aaaannnd again a failed interview.
Just because I didn't pay enough attention to the question.

Did that ever happen to you guys? Like you just write a huge pile of code, you look at it, you're proud, but it ends up not working because you forgot one little thing that makes it completely incorrect?

    Not on a test.
    But I’ve done that in prod, let it sit there and be used without flaw for many years then bam, the bug appears.

    Interviews like these are retarded. Bet you those fuckers don't run shit perfectly at the first time. Specially if they write code on a test framework first.

    I am more interested on algorithmic thinking. Syntax wizards are a dime a dozen.

    Yes, either because of:
    Inverse: 1-(a/b) vs (a/b)
    Wrong False: a>b vs a<b
    Time: utc vs cst

    Yes. Usually a while loop comparing in the wrong direction or a typo.

    @rEaL-jAsE when I said proud I just meant that I was happy when it was finished.
    But yeah you're right, I need to always double-check myself
