Never have I had to implement any kind of ridiculous algorithm to pass tests with huge amounts of data in the least amount of memory, as the competitive websites show.
It has been mostly about:
Finding the correct library for a job and understanding it well, to prevent footguns and blocking future features
Design patterns for better build times
Making sane UI options and deciding resource alloc/dealloc points that would match user interaction expectations
cmake
But then again, I haven’t worked in FinTech or Big Data companies, neither have I made an SQL server.

Because actually writing code is the least important part of programming.
I mean, not the least important, it is an important part. But way less than a common person thinks.
