similar thing happened to me but I got cooked on the infra round instead, k8s stuff came out of nowhere

python generator semantics tripped me up on a different format, seems like they really lean into python specific stuff

did you get through part 1 and 2 okay? that dependency cascade part seemed like it'd be the real killer from what I've heard

yeah that part is rough, I only tracked one direction the first time through too and had to redo a chunk of it under the clock

damn that sucks, feels like they design it so almost nobody finishes in time honestly
