Hi, I don't know if this is a right place to ask for this. Right now I want to build an app which will have a map, I'd like to use whatever map provider is existing right now, like from google map or openstreetmap, and I want to add some custom marker onto different location on the map to allow user to interact with it. Right now I'm looking to do it on the web only, but in the future I might need to do this on mobile also. Do you guys have any experiences doing something like this before, could you suggest me some approach on how to achieve this, or what library could I use to do it.

Leetcode and Interviews.

Hey buds, hope you're doing good.

LSS, I am applying for a job as a C++ Developer in my friend's company (Abroad), having 6 months to prepare for the interview/position.

It's a junior position tho the interview as described by him "not as easy".

He is not a developer so he doesn't really know what topics are usually asked about, I have done some tinkering with QT (C++ GUI Framework) and already taken courses in C++ (College).

I am currently solving Leetcode problems, NGL it's kinda fun and challenging but I still take lots of time to find optimal solutions.

Question is, is the time complexity metric usually taken into accountability in such positions interviews and what topics do you think I should focus on ?

The interview process is an hour and half on video call on Skype.

Any other suggestions is very appreciated!

On a note : I have worked as an Android Developer and Flutter Developer for about two years so I have plenty of experience in the field of development in general.

Architecture

How can I choose and implement the right architecture for my project?

So, the biggest difficulty I face while working on personal projects is determining the right architecture to use. By architecture, I mean the project structure we employ. When I review code on GitHub similar to mine, I notice that each codebase has its own individual structure.

For example, let's say a specific feature that serves as a service. Some developers place it in the service layer, while others categorize it as a utility. I am confused about which approach is correct.

Any suggestions on how to tackle this issue or any relevant links I can refer to?

Career advice

Looking for advice. Sorry if it gets little long or confusing in some places.

I've been working in creative fields for the last ten or so years, primarily sticking to video editing and graphic/motion design. However, right now that field feels like it's slipping away more and more every day. My current role.is dropping hours big time and looking for work other places is resulting in rejection letter after rejection letter. So I just feel like my time is up.

For a while recently I took on coding and learning MERN and other areas as I can. I felt that I had a good foundation and could get my foot in the door with an internship or any freelance I even had a few interviews and each one asked me things I didn't know or had no experience in. One place even laughed at my for not knowing certain things. Thus leading to feelings of rejection and fear. And in the end causing me to not want to try anymore.

After a few months I decided to try again and same thing happened that is happening now, rejections, no responses, etc.

So what the heck am I missing? Am I doing things wrong?

SOCKS Proxy Server Architecture for High Concurrency

I am developing a SOCKS5 proxy server with C and have some ideas for handling client and host connections. Here are my proposed approaches:
1- Polling: Utilizing epoll() to handle all connections.
2- Multithreading with Polling: Handling client-host connections in separate threads and using epoll() to listen to these connections within a single thread.
3- Thread Pool with Polling: Similar to the previous approach, but instead of creating a new thread for each incoming connection, connections are assigned to a thread pool.
I plan to use non-blocking sockets for edge-triggered polling with epoll().
Are there any other suggestions or better options to consider?
