Less that and more that I don't play the FANG game of being under pressure to whiteboard the process of unlinking a doubly linked list or show bubblesort algorithm stuff for a position where all I am doing is stringing some divs together in a React codebase.

I mean if you enjoy that stuff by all means do it, but I prefer to build real stuff that make impact not practice showmanship.
