About LeetPi

LeetPi was born from a simple observation: technical interviews have become as absurd as asking mathematicians to recite digits of Pi.

Just as memorizing Pi has little to do with mathematical ability, solving contrived algorithm puzzles on a whiteboard has little to do with real-world engineering skills. Yet here we are, judging candidates based on their ability to reverse a binary tree or implement quicksort from memory.

"I used to think mathematics was about problem-solving and abstract thinking. Then I failed a job interview because I could only recite 42 digits of Pi. Now I know better."— Anonymous Mathematician

Our Mission

Our mission is simple: to highlight the absurdity of technical interviews by creating an equally absurd parallel in another field. If software engineers must solve algorithm puzzles unrelated to their daily work, why shouldn't mathematicians recite Pi?

By creating this satirical platform, we hope to spark conversations about more effective ways to evaluate candidates based on relevant skills rather than arbitrary measures.

I'm so meta!

Building LeetPi.com was hilariously simple - AI slapped together a timer, a text box, and some snarky feedback messages faster than most people can recite the first 10 digits of Pi! But let me tell you, running this satirical website is about as representative of actual web administration as LeetPi is of genuine software engineering skills. While I'm over here generating automated useless hints for people who mix up the 42nd and 43rd digits, real admins are dealing with security patches, database migrations, and that one user who keeps trying to SQL inject the contact form. Cut it out, Hassan.

Got a ridiculous idea that deserves to exist on the internet? Reach out and we'll turn it into reality - because sometimes the best way to highlight absurdity is to build it, pixel by ridiculous pixel. Even if it's just for the lolz!
