<p>I'm a surf photographer and rely on my camera automatics a lot. They are allowed to move freely within defined limits.<p>99% of my pictures are technically fine.<p>I only use  full manual if the picture job needs it.<p>Most of the time setting the aperture is enough (and the camera allows to set the exposure time and ISO automatically, but set   limits which to automatics is not allowed to cross). On the other side action/sport photography is mostly shutter time bound - then the other side around.</p>

<p>Because there are a lot of fraudsters.<p>With social skills and salesmanship, you can never have delivered top-class work even after 15 years as a developer.<p>Quite a few people know how to "play the game". That's pretty easy if your superiors have no idea about software development themselves.</p>

<p>It's actually not. It has been shown that you can get extremely good Leetcode ratings by systematically learning their  15-20 most used patterns. This  can be done easily in a sort time span. Guides how to achieve this can be found on Reddit.<p>Same happens to students if they start to memorize old training exams systematically. They exploit that professors and their assistants will recycle/adapt a decent amount of old questions.  Doing this is <i>cheap</i> in terms of effort compared trying to understanding everything.<p>Of course people that succeed in LC tests will defend it. Gatekeeping is a natural response.<p>That's reason why we stopped using it and spent much effort in eliminating any possible preparability. You get highly qualified pattern matching monkeys if you offer them the stuff they are trained for.</p>

But yes - that project was a shitshow for a long time.<p>Galileo HAS now offers 30cm accuracy with less than 100s convergence time not needing additional correction servers/stations.<p>Also spoofing   resistant thanks to cryptographic signing (Galileo Open Service Navigation Message Authentication).<p>Both free for use.
