Ask HN: Hacker claimed ownership and then deleted my Facebook Page of 50k users
As an update to [0] and [1], the scammers have now completely deleted my page of 50k subscribers.<p>I am devastated. 10+ years of building a heavy metal community, gone like a puff of smoke, just like that. And Facebook still hasn't replied to a single message. I hate to imagine what would have happened if I was an actual business...<p>I am reaching out to the HN community one last time. If anyone has any advice or can help me talk to an actual human being at Facebook and restore my page and ownership, <i>please</i> get in touch!<p>(or if not, at least vote / comment your own frustrations or horror stories below, to help get my story be seen by such a person, if you think this post deserves it...)<p><pre><code> [0] https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29706571

Poll: Is the leetcode grind necessary to land a high paying remote job?
I live in western Europe.<p>I've worked for 4 different companies, for European salaries, without doing any leetcode type interviews(I ditched any company that was doing it), it was either take home tests about real problems, technical questions, or sometimes just trust in my abilities given my previous experiences.<p>I've never really trained for leetcode(or not consciously at least, I did do a bit of algorithms/data structures of course), mostly because I know that I would panic and perform poorly in this kind of interview, so I don't really see the point of practicing for that.(it's not really about whether or not I can solve a hard leetcode problem, it's about if I want to do it live in front of a recruiter, it make me anxious just to think about that and I don't want to inflict that on myself), I'd much rather have a hard take home test than an easy leetcode interview.<p>+If I have to spend a few hundreds hours of hard work on something I'd much rather work on an useful and potentially profitable side-project, rather than on pointless problems already solved thousand/millions of times.<p>Do you think grinding leetcode is an absolute necessity to land a good job at a company hiring worldwide remotely? I'd be aiming for salaries around 80-100k$. In my country the only companies paying that are FAANGs.<p>Thanks for your answers

Ask HN: Is the past disappearing on the web?
I have the habit of looking at the date of things I consume online, it gives me a sense of relevance and context, both when I'm looking for things that are "from now" but more importantly when I'm looking for things given a temporal context, for instance, programming for an old compiler, finding out how to do something with an old piece of hardware or electronics.<p>I feel like I'm encountering more and more sites and articles where I can't seem to find the date.
Google will return irrelevant results from today rather than relevant results from 10 years ago.<p>I feel it's getting worse, is it just me?
