There was an interview many years ago, back when I was a student maybe, but I cannot remember where I read it (best guess is Sourceforge "Project of the Month" which used to be a thing back then at least.

The only thing I think I can remember clearly however was the question about the biggest regret which I think was one particular core datastructure that was an array but which they later wished they had used a linked list for instead.



I feel like changing an array to a linked list couldn't be that hard, but I don't know the particular complications.


Exactly, and neither do I, I have mostly worked on Java and and with IDEs that would tell me in a nice way if what I did didn't make sense.
