| They come from "showing your work."

true, that's been my experience so far, I rarely engage in interviews that are walled by coding challenges before they even talk to me. heck, I didn't even receive a code challenge for my last 2 jobs, which were well-paid.

this makes a lot of sense, I have plenty to talk about. will seriously consider it, might even do it on X

thanks for the tips :)
