computer-graphics-from-scratch VS interview-guide

I’m getting started too in graphics programming (web developer here) and I’ve started with the Raytracing in One Week-end, I find it to be great (I use ChatGPT along the tutorial to exchange and ask questions when I struggle). Other than that I also bought the OpenGL bible book and the book Computer Graphics from Scratch that you can both find on Amazon, they’re really great.

Computer Graphics from Scratch is fully available for free on the website, if you want to check it out first: https://gabrielgambetta.com/computer-graphics-from-scratch

It may be a bit basic compared to Abrash's but https://gabrielgambetta.com/computer-graphics-from-scratch/

Computer Graphics From Scratch is my favorite introduction to the subject. It assumes less about the reader than something like the "In A Weekend" series.

This one: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=19584921 And wasn't even my post!

A long time ago I found myself teaching Computer Graphics at my alma mater. Over the following years my approach to the subject evolved, and I really got the hang of it. After I stopped teaching, I took my notes, handouts and slides, and made them into a series of articles that I put on my website, where they remained in relative obscurity. Hacker News managed to find it every once in a while, and it was generally well received, but nothing came out of this. Until April 2019, when that post made the HN front page again, except this time it caught the attention of an editor in No Starch Press.

Long story short, my materials are now a book, Computer Graphics from Scratch, sold by No Starch Press [0], and also available for free on my website [1].

This genuinely wouldn’t have happened without your support. THANK YOU, HN community :)

Sorry, interviewguide.dev

Planned overall prep structure using https://interviewguide.dev. This was critical since I have young children and time is very precious.

Oh sorry, I didn't mean anything in particular about that. For prepping I used a couple popular resources: neetcode.io and interviewguide.dev. The interview guide in particular gave me some confidence that if you're stuck or don't have the perfect answer it's not that big a deal and you gain a lot of points by being able to communicate well and demonstrate you can code.

This is pretty normal in the big tech world, unfortunately. There's a good writeup of what to expect/how to prepare here.

Hey all, a few months ago I documented the interview prep process I followed that helped me pass interview at Google, Microsoft, and a few smaller companies. I put this guide online for free here! I hope it can help you on your journey to landing a software development job.

Yeah interview prep for big tech is a whole different beast. I followed this guide last time https://interviewguide.dev

Yeah, so I actually wrote this guide that details how I prepped during my last job search (the one where I passed Microsoft and Google). I think it's at least a good one-time read and hopefully lays out some helpful strategies.
