>>100372829>guy doing proper barbell lifts (not meme machine shit) and trying to improve himself>is made fun of by creeps taking pics of himWhat's with this crab bucket mentality? You people are fucking pathetic
>>100372829He's tall white and (probably) handsome.He doesn't need to lift 10x his body weight to get pussy.Also have you considered that he might just be doing some physiotherapy?
PSA for you autists.Many of you probably have repressed trauma.You can dismiss that as bullshit if you want, because you saw some tiktok girl talk about it and you probably think she's a bullshitter so it must be fake. Maybe she is, doesn't really matter.Shit is real and a lot of you are fucked up because of it. You have social issues because you learned coping strategies for trauma. This is why you are the weirdo anti-social guy at work.By coincidence, or maybe by design, most workplace environments prey on people like you. Authority figures + critique and judgement = trauma trigger. You can pretend you are tough and I'm just talking bullshit, I'm sure that's working out great for you.You can fix it, or just keep coping.Now you know though.
Daily reminder that helpdesk is not tech work
>>100372897I agree.I don't agree with therapy as a solution, though.Talk to your parents, siblings or anyone that truly cares.
>>100372848>>100372870>>100372882he wearin panties its ok baby
>>100372937I'm sure that's why you named the file "DYEL9.jpg".Why the fuck are you staring at men's asses anyway, you crab bucket fag?
>join new company>kinda hate my coworkers>after a few months realize they're alright and end up getting along well with them>project goes into maintenance mode, get moved to another teamevery single timeI am fucking cursed
>>100372870>crabs in a bucket mentality Did you see the last thread when that anon came in and tried telling other anons how exercise is good for you and they were, almost unanimously, in disagreement because of their age, drinking habits and/or lifestyle, and how they’re apparently incapable of literally just being better??Yeah, it’s marxist ideology: shame the strong for expressing their strength and encourage the weak to believe they are above the strong. The irony is in that the weak aren’t actually better, they’re just fooling themselves in order to preserve the ego, as the ego is all weak men have. This is literally why we’re experiencing tough times: too many weak men.
>>100373176Exercise is bad for you. Try smoking instead.
>>100373176People told you you had to be 18 to post here, faggot.
>>100373176Nobody disagrees that exercise is good.It's just this "just lift bro" crap that is annoying.It's just the latest consumerist trend, I am an old enough millennial to remember the days when lifting was niche, and now it has taken over everyone's free time. Fine, go lift if you want. Just don't pretend it's the solution for everything.
>>100372897What if I told you I don’t need fixing? What if I told you that everyone who tried to “fix” me was, and still is, responsible for said trauma?What if I told you that despite trauma, I still have sound social skills and a high level of emotional intelligence?What if I told you to just fuck off and not bother me when I’m working unless it’s important, because despite my trauma, I still prefer my own company instead of experiencing the feeling of utter contempt that contemporary beings are deserving of?I wonder if it ever occurred to some people that sometimes the anti-social quiet guy isn’t just shy, and does indeed fucking hate people, and really just wants to be left alone and work? Why am i forced to acquiesce to the demands of overly-socialised social-media consuming tik tok addicts? Eat shit & die, in that order (the order is important)
>>100373176>Did you see the last thread when that anon came in and tried telling other anons how exercise is good for you and they were, almost unanimously, in disagreement because of their age, drinking habits and/or lifestyleI didn't, all I saw was anons saying they work out and they know from experience that working out won't solve all your life problems. No one said that working out isn't good for you.>and how they’re apparently incapable of literally just being better??Literally no one said this.Stop creating your own narrative in your head and read the posts exactly as they are.
>>100372897There is no fix for it
>>100373182I unironically remember people telling me that cigarettes/nicotine kill covid during the lockdowns lmao>>100373203NTA, faggot>>100373214>>100373214Not everything is a consumerist trend, and if it is/was, then it will end like all the others and those people you mention will go wherever the FOMO/Tik Toks lead them. I don’t understand why so many people are so exercise-adverse..there really is some wisdom in the saying “running changed my life”. Where is that grumpy gym bro anon from the last thread he was right when he said that some of you guys can only think in black & white extremes. There is no one-size-fits-all solution to personal problems, no fucking shit, but i think regular exercise at the gym’s a pretty good start
>>100372897Listen here little baby. You're gonna get a lot of hurtful and degrading comments, but that ain't what I'm about. Let me just say, you are perfect the way you are. You hear me sugar? PERFECT. Don't ever change. You deserve anything and everything you want. Stay safe for me, baby girl.>mfw thinking about you hurting
>>100373271I just said that; i can’t give the benefit of the doubt to anons who argue against exercise not being a solution to your problems. Would it have instead satisfied your narrative if everyone was recommending suicide as the solution? Jfc wtf is wrong with you people
>>100372829>70kg bent-over rowseems enough as he is not a meathead
>>100372829You’ve been posting this image for years, it’s time to move on.
>lifting isn't a consumerist trendGot like 1/3 of Youtube dedicated to it.Half of Amazon just sells lifting powder milk.And please don't equate lifting with exercise. It is a very specific type of activity. Like climbing gyms, the other annoying trend of the Zeitgeist.
>>100373386Haha lil timmy in that pic huh? Fuck you gon do?
>>100373338No one is arguing against exercise you fucking retard and I there is no "your narrative", I'm telling you my experience and you're sperging out yelling "NOOOOO YOU'RE WRONG YOU MUST BE WRONG I KNOW YOU'RE WORKING OUT WRONG EXERCISE IS THE ULTIMATE SOLUTION TO ALL!"I've been lifting for over 5 years, I still lift and I will keep lifting because I enjoy it BUT it is NOT an ultimate solution, it may or may not help you. It may make you feel better about your body, it will make you feel better about your condition, that's it.also>>100373314>Where is that grumpy gym bro anon from the last thread he was right when he said that some of you guys can only think in black & white extremes.You mean this >>100372430 (You) guy, who literally said that getting ripped => getting laid which is a black and white extreme, a false one on top of that, followed by a bunch of buzzwords and conclusions taken out of their ass created by their mindbroken, 4chan-ridden midwit brain? Fuck off.
>>100372792SAARS >>>100373447How fucked am I? What should I do? t. graduating two years late (entering third/fifth year this fall) with multiple bad grades on core coursework (Data Structures, Discrete Math). Does transcript matter? Any advice.
>>100373176I am a diehard GOMMIE in the eyes of corpococksucking amerilardians and I am close to 1/2/3/4, wtf are you talking about?
this general has gone to shit
>>100373338>>100373314You are genuinely so fucking retarded, I beg you to work on your reading comprehension.
>>100373495what are you expecting for an answer here? yes you are fucked
>>100372829technology?
>>100373495>What should I do?Get good grades?
>looking for jobs on Indeed /LinkedIn>only see remote jobs being advertised in my area>read the description>1 day a week mandatory on the other side of the country>for every job actually in my area, there are 20 job postings like above
>>100373570Why am I fucked specifically? >>100373603I will from now on. Should I retake those courses? I want to get atleast one internship and id only have a semester of good grades before id have to apply. Currently have a 2.55 GPA.
>>100373635>Should I retake those courses?Yes
Is it possible to create a prototype in 15 days?
>>100373640What is the benefit of retaking? The consensus seems to be to not unless you failed ofc. Its worth redoing a D+?
>>100373495>How fucked am I?If you're a woman or colored, you're fine.
>>100373667Bruh I don't know, I've worked hard on getting good grades during my studies and I found an internship very easily.
>>100373635there are many times more new graduates than job openings, and you are from the bottom half of the stack
>>100373702But there is also the algorithms portion of the selection process that filters based on IQ, right?
>>100373495You're fucked. If you can't understand some subjects / caught up with group projects or whatever you're supposed to cheat and pay someone to do your assignmentI'm a year late, had to retake a whole year + repeating classes every semester break. I got 12 months of internship though and I'm currently doing a fuckass bachelor thesis, hope I survived
>>100373713Why am I fucked specifically though? Cant I just not list the gpa on resume.
>>100373710>its another "underachieving loser thinks hes a genius" episode
>want to logon early just to get a headstart on my tasks but also take a break to eat and take a shower>know as soon as I get on im not getting off my chair until lunchdamn i hate this weird feeling. im anxious to see what's in my mailbox but i want to take as much as a rest time as possible before going full sprint mode
>>100373736True. I should drop out and become homeless. If you make one mistake you deserve to suffer forever or something. I got high enough grades to get in here (it was competitive) so its not like I dont have any academic credentials
>>100372829>>100372937Why are third worlders like this? Especially Europeans?
Honestly fuck you retards. I dont know why I expected advice from normies.
>>100373788>advice from normieswhat are you on about, this general is actually filled with autists and high school kids. along with our friendly neighbourhood ESLs.
>>100373788What advice did you get?
You're fucked when you're bad at the subject you paid for. What other explanation is there? Gpa under 3.00 is a big doo doo basically.
>>100373801Then why is every comment calling me a retard for having some mental trouble during and directly after lockdowns (school was online for two years here)
>>100373816can you link your post, i'm too lazy to find it and i have work in 30 minutes.
>>100373808Im not bad at the subject. Ill graduate with above a 3.00 btw.
excersise alone won't help you get rid of your depression. i don't know why people keep memeing that, it's not a fucking golden spoon
>>100373845like i think there's two problems.>if you're depressed over self esteemyeah maybe the gym would work>if you're depressed because of SOCIETY and you're fucking pissed off at everythingNO THE GYM WILL NOT HELP in fact the GYM may exacerbate your condition to make you actually do something you'll regret.
>>100372897he spoke the truth and the masses hated me.
>>100372897???? i mean yeah probably. also EVERYONE EVERYONE has skeletons in their closet. are we just exposing universal truths now?
>>100372792what the fuck is that image
>>100373831You have literally nothing to back it up, huge ego for a retard with a 2.55 GPA.
>>100372897>Shit is real and a lot of you are fucked up because of it.The only women I see as developers are chinks and pajeets, never seen a white woman developer.
>Why don't you come to the city anon?>We could do X and Y and Z and...>You should come to the city sometime.>Have you thought about coming to the CITY? So we can do CITY things?>Most of the team is in the CITY so... we've decided we'd hang out in the CITY ;)>Please tell us when you're coming to the CITY so we can prepare some activities in the CITY with the people in the CITY
>>100374027How is your job search going
>>100374050Not really searching right now. Not loving the company where I'm at, but I want to stay for another year before I start searching.
>>100373214>when lifting was niche, and now it has taken over everyone's free time.Geese I spend like 20 minutes a day walking and maybe another 15 minutes doing a couple freeweight exercises with the dumbells I keep under my desk. I think this idea that exercise needs to take hours is why so many people don't do it. You don't need that much to be pretty fit.
>>100374120>this is considered working out to people on this generalwalking? really? walking?
>>100374120>Geese I spend like 20 minutes a day walking and maybe another 15 minutes doing a couple freeweight exercises with the dumbells I keep under my desk. Very nice, I also walk to and from my office and I also carry groceries home.
>>100374148By that I obviously meant 20 minutes dedicated just to walking for exercise (I live next to a park so I take morning walks to/in there) in addition to the walking I normally do.
>>100374201Have you considered doing additional daily breathing for mental well-being?
>>100374135I used to walk a couple miles every day in college. It's underrated. You go where you need to without using a car, it's pretty relaxing (although obviously you need to get somewhere so you're going to *walk* not stroll.) People don't walk enough.
damn friday already hahathis week just flew by
>>100374120Tell me you're not serious
>>100372897Ok so how do i fix this? Therapy only wants me to become giga normie.
Look. I like my morning walk. I don't care what all you fags think I'm not going to stop doing it.
>>100374265Walk all you want you wanker but don't call it a fucking exercise, it's like calling a man in a dress a woman.
>>100372897I don't experience this. Everyone I work with loves being around me and always invites me places.
>>100374223its wensday
>>100374120>You don't need that much to be pretty fit.35 minutes of low intensity exercise per day, I mean it's better than nothing. You should really be getting more.>I think this idea that exercise needs to take hours is why so many people don't do it.Agreed. Also the idea that exercise is something you have to go to the gym for puts people off too. There are a lot of things that you can do that are exercise, but don't feel like it.
>>100374290but when'sday?
>>100374280i love 50 cents song wanksta it clears my brain
>>100374280What IS exercise then?Going to the gym and lifting weights 6 days a week?
>wankerGo shave the queen.
>>100374295The weights are usually pretty high intensity. I do try for the hypertrophy thing and I've worked up to 70 lbs.
>>100374290Good joke anon, almost got me there
>>100373974I solved LFU cache constant time in 2 hours in C only. You guys sound like redditors with how mean you are
>>100374308She's dead.
>>100374295>35 minutes of low intensity exercise per day, I mean it's better than nothing. You should really be getting more.lolnothis is 1x pw gym
>>100374314>The weights are usually pretty high intensity. Still only 15 minutes a day, should really go for longer.>I do try for the hypertrophy thing and I've worked up to 70 lbs.What exercises though? 70lb db rows are much more impressive than 70lb deadlifts
>>100374321Do you have side projects? Do you know practical stuff like Jenkins Docker and Ansible?Otherwise yeah you're bottom of the pile.>Hur the algo quiz will sort meThat just filters out the people who cheated in college.
>>100374328>just lift bro and you'll swim in pussy bro don't worry about the norwood reaper or your face women only care about the weights you can lift bro
Fuck I thought it was Thursday. The fuck is wrong with me?
>>100374280I know a former boxing champion who used to do just walking instead of running in preparation for his bouts, because he didn't enjoy running. Obviously trained boxing too lol
>>100374333It's a lot of different stuff targeting different muscle groups: curls, flys (obviously those aren't 70lbs lol) squats, etc.I don't really time it. I think it's 15 minutes but I just kind of do whatever and it takes as long as it does.
>>100374340I know, always a good thing to realise it's Friday and not realise it.
>>100374338yes thats all the body you need, rest is face
>>100374328that guy looks fine for his age
>>100374338Lifting isn't about being attractive to women it's about being a better person.
>>100374351Nah, got big presentation on Friday so I feel good about having an extra day.
>>100374347>Obviously trained boxing too lolSo did lots of additional training?Not really a good argument
>>100374360>Lifting isn't about being attractive to women it's about being a better person.It's a fucking cult for men without a personality.
>>100374358Kek what? He's a solid 3/10 at most. Maybe a 4 if you are REALLY generous.
>>100374338It helps and the others cant really be changed, so it makes sense to work on it.
>>100374365But, today is Friday anon...
>>100374372He's not fat and not ugly.If he has a decent personality he'd be above average for the 35-45 cohort.
>>100374372because of face, not body, ryan gosling face with this body would work well
Why does any mention of women and/or physical activity instantly cause all brown manlet gymcels to go into meltdown mode and derail the thread? This happens on literally every single board too btwFuck off. No one cares. You have your won containment board. Following the latest consoomer trend will never be a good substitute for a personality.
>>100374371Eh. Cults are underrated.
>>100374395who is this in response to?tag the ppl you have a problem w
>>100374382>glasses >skinnyfat>hairline absolutely annihilated by norwood reaper>shitty body hair>prey eyes>incel lips>barely any visible jawline

How would one branch out from a data scientist position (doing ML at a big startup) to doing cool embedded shit in the defense industry? I know C++ (and C, asm and Forth in case anyone gives a fuck) and I'm tired of being a data monkeyI've also thought about trying to break into fintech but it seems less interesting
>>100374411Mate you are coping, for a guy in his 40s hes not bad.
>>100374411nigga stop frontin post your physique
I have a piercing headache Why is life constant suffering
>>100374477idk, 4 liters of beer every day is a bit much, ain't it?

>WFH>company is asking for covid vaccine status>”it’s completely private and we don’t save this information!”why bother asking me then? why does it matter if im not vaxxed if i work in my bedroom
>>100374500>>100374476>25 years of "lifting" for thisExtremely grim.
>>100374516This guy just has horrible genes, he looked 54 at 30.
>>100374504Just tell them "no I didn't take it" and move on. If they bitch about it ignore their emails. It's not worth it for them to really do anything about it.
>>100374462Go apply to a defense company? They'll hire anyone who can breath, is a citizen, and passes a background test really."Real Programmers Don't Use Pascal" talks about these people for a reason.
>>100372926>Talk to your parents, siblings or anyone that truly cares.They just tell me to go to therapy
>>100374504They want to know if you'll die soon like all the people who took AZ so they can prepare and find a substitute
>>100374548>They'll hire anyone who can breath, is a citizen, and passes a background test rI thought it was competitive.I'm talking about European companies though, I'm not American
>have junior I’ve given up on but won’t actually get rid of for various reasons>just kind of leave him to his own devices>out of nowhere he offers to do something I’ve been dreading>so badly want to not do it that I huff copium thinking maybe he somehow got better from total neglect>some time later>get the pr>pull and look at it>it’s all completely fucked and zero percent of it is usable>deluding myself that it would at least save time giving me a starting point means it will now be lateI hate being right
>>100374135your mindset is literally why so many fatsos remain fatsos with this dumb idea that any form of exercise must be intense
>>100374672well....yeah...?? the whole point of working out is to get yourself stronger. if you're just doing bare minimum, what's the point lmao
>>100374626so it doesn't even work? Or was it a refactoring task or something
>>100374696You're doing something. It will help. Not as much as doing more. But it's better than nothing.

>>100374901Yes.
Fuck this thread is fast. You people have no respect for my bathroom break and compile timing.
>>100374901I don’t mind juniors so long as they know they are juniors.But they generally don’t. And whenever they try to give an opinion on something or argue a point I have to physically restrain myself from trying to get rid of them.
>>100374548Defense isn't that easy, depending on the company, and there are definitely tiers. They definitely select for people with education or experience with their technologies, but I've found it's fairly easy to land the job if you do have that experience.>t. works in defense
>>100373176is this a bot or some mentally ill retard (a zoomer probably) who learned some buzzwords in this website?
>>100374951fuck you
>>100374901im a junior forced into a senior role and it's driving me insane. seniors from other teams keep asking me out of scope questions that they should know better and I feel like a retard asking my own team if "my solution" would be right and it usually is but I'm too new to give any definite answers. shit's so frustrating since I feel like I'm so stupid asking this shit but I can't outright approve or deny requests yet because I don't know everything.
>>100374135this general is full of fat shut-ins that will do anything to get out of exercise and/or hard physical work. Prove me wrong
>>100374987>>100375031
>>100374371>it’s a cult for men with no personalityImagine being so butthurt and objectively weak that you shame men for lifting weights lmao. Who hurt you, what was her name, anon
Okay boys, I'm about to get to it. Wish me luck.
>>100374395because physical fitness and/women are entirely unrealistic & unattainable goals for 95% of the noodle-arm dregs ITT
>>100375158>
>>100375158People who care lift. The popular propaganda says Brown and White people are the same. The guy your arguing with has noticed brown people are annoying, people who don't care/lift tend to be more invisible so he only noticed those.
>>100375169Best of luck mate
Heard through the grapevine that the engineering team that interviewed me all voted to hire me . But it was overridden by a higher up.
>>100375281idk man, there are a certain type of gays that lift. There's doing it for your health and basic physique, then there is taking it a little too far. It's almost like a "weed bro" type of thing.
>>100375386Probably because you're an ESL
Starting to get really frustrated with one of the members from another team. I think he's got me on speed dial and he's asking me shit he should really ask his team for. I don't want to be rude but I've been telling him to send me emails but then he'll ping me like 2 hours later if I've read it. I could ignore him but I don't want to be that guy. I'm really trying not to be that guy. Like how the hell do you become the guy that's happy to help people? It's even more annoying in the office since they go right up to me and go "BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH" and I'm just like "....lol what? send me an email and I'll review" I'm starting to really hate people expecting answers right away. Since RTO, my face went from :) to :/ to :I and I'm really want to avoid burning out or just being the grumpy guy. Any tips?
>>100375386That's what they all say. Don't believe it

Should I add Linux administration skills to my resume if it's just something I learned in my spare time installing it on my own computers at home but never in my professional life?
>>100375526>anyone else notice how Indians always start stuttering heavily when they realize they fucked somethingYup. I've noticed it when you ask them a question on something technical. After they give you the bullshit 'do the needful' answer and you start pressing them for details. Most of the time they know literally nothing about what they're talking about.
>>100375460You just get use to it and disassociate. This is the "collaborative" environment all C-suite and management were talking about. At least you're not in an environment where no one wants to help but will take it personally if you don't regularly ask for their help so they can get the privilege of turning you down and feeling important.
>>100375563I would put the experience on there, it's useful to know. Not sure if I'd label in "linux administration skills"

>>100373845What if you just ignore the depression?>boohoo it is hard to get out of bedYeah so it is for people with chronic back pain who literally have no cure other than numbing themselves with drugs. Many of them just learn to live with the pain, it is literally just a broken circuit shooting pulses into your brain. Depression is not too different. Stop taking life so seriously, especially when you don't have kids. Just fuck around and do interesting stuff. Travel any time you can. Go on a trip through a fucking desert or something. Society was always shit, you don't deserve a girlfriend and no one owes you sex (outside prostitutes you paid for).t. depressed fag who learned to live with it.
>>100375583Tbf that was my environment recently. My boss would ghost me so much then he just bounced and now I'm stuck with people going blah blah blah. I've just been asking all these retarded questions during the dailies and I feel like an idiot asking it lol. I kinda understand how my boss feels now and why he quit.Shit's so frustrating though, I'm not your speed dial stop it. Send me an email and I'll review it. Don't expect an answer within the hour or even the day.
>>100375592Yeah you're probably right about that, couldn't think of a word to explain the process of setting up and installing Arch Linux on a blank PC and managing it afterwards. "Linux Administration" probably calls to mind what IT guys do overseeing entire computer networks
>>100375632depression is literally chemicals in your brain fucking with you. there's no magic fix for it. truth is you probably never really had depression. too many of you guys talk about shit you have no idea about lol
>>100375645Yeah, that's exactly what it implies. BUT, what you do, could land you a role, especially these days where there are so many people that use linux but aren't "system administrators". Lots of people hear linux and run the other way.
>>100374951People wait out a thread when it reaches 250 posts and then swarm the new thread at once.>>100375659Where in my post did I talk about fixing it you dumb cunt? I am telling you to ignore it, not to fix it.
>>100375632Your mind is your body. Consciousness is an illusion.
>>100375727Yeah. As I said you never had it. You probably mistaken sad and depressed you pathetic fucking loser lmao. Sucks your LOL Elo is so bad that you thought you're "depressed" but you're sad, not depressed.
>>100375745This, but the exact opposite.
>>100373845There's a dynamical relationship between exercise and temporary depression/burnout.

>>100375800I’d rather have this than jobless anons crying woe is me or doing fucking resume reviews in the tech WORKERS general

whats it like to work on an all white team? anyone experience this? i genuinely want to know if whites teams have the same problems as indian/chinese/south american teams

>>100372792Two senior devs are having a pissing contest on my PR. Each wants me to do it their way. If this wasn't remote work there'd be enough office drama for a shouting match. The passive aggressive remarks during the meetings were funny but now this is effecting my work.
>>100376024Ask them to let you marry their daughter and whichever one says yes implement their changes and squash merge the PR.
>>100375846>I’d rather have thisever thought that you might be part of the problem?>than jobless anons crying woe is me>doing fucking resume reviews in the tech WORKERS generalI mean, it's part of a workers life to resign or get fired from jobs. the question becomes if these anons have experience or not. as >>100375865 says, there should be a separate general for them, but students, graduates and bootcamp retards are too lazy to start one
>>100372792wtf happened in this general last time i saw this many trannies & faggots get triggered over exercise they put a fat woman on the cover of time magazine LOL
>>100376178We're getting the second wave of the 2020s US political crisis.

>>100376189fuck sake i’m sick of these fucking americans shitting up the internet every election cycle enough is enough. How the fuck do we segregate the internet so the USA/Israel & China can have their own internet, and the rest of the civilised world can have our own??? jfc look at the posts, and in twg too wtf
>>100376024I would go full Machiavelli and fan the flames. Pit them against one another and have them fight to the death for your approval; once one of the faggots is either dead and/or fired, take his job & become the new Senior at your workplace; the winning Senior will vouch for you
>>100375879I was on one briefly and if anything it was worse because once everyone is from the same culture whether or not you’re buddies becomes important.

Im a sysadmin and we have a help desk full of people who are afraid of code, including simple scripting shit like powershell. They need to do really basic shit that can be completed in the blink of an eye, from scripts that i've already written and provided. However, because running the script might involve, you know, opening a powershell window first (to run as admin), or god forbid, involve editing variables, they just decide not to use them at all.At this point im tempted to write a simple app to just... make a gui for the scripts so they won't be so fucking scared or lazy in the most retarded way possible. Im also 90% sure that this would be a complete waste of time as it would require them to change their ways. Also I hate my job.
Anyone heard anything about Quantic School of Business and Technology? Just got a spam message from them.

>>100373845cardio exercise has been shown in studies to reduce depression symptoms. one of the mechanisms is by causing your body to produce BDNF. low BDNF is becoming more popular of a theory to describe depressionif you are physically unhealthy you are going to be mentally unhealthy as well. theres no way around thathearing people complain about their "depression" is so annoying. literally nobody cares. not even your own mother wants to hear you complain about that shit. almost instantly you know the person uses it as an excuse for all sorts of behavior

I'm doing an off boarding audit for our terminated users and they marked like half of these people as being let go due to there not being enough work for them and given how busy we are im 100% sure that's bullshit.I guess they just don't want to mark it as workforce reduction after us already going though several waves of layoffs?
Still waiting to hear back from a promising lead.

>>100376914No, they're Americans thankfully.
>>100376933I went on my morning walk.
>>100376960That doesn't mean anything these days.
I can't focus on my work and my manager is always telling me to get moving onto the next project.There are so many gotchas in data analysis cus data has so many dimensions, I am finding myself always revising published content.This feels shitty.
coming from a linux sysadmin background, would you accept a SOC role? the hours and pay are shit but is it worth it to break into a security job?
I'm getting too cocky for my own good. Me having to baby seniors (who have like 15 years of experience) while I'm not even done with my first year can't be good. My ego is growing too big.
only 6 more hours to go :)
>>100376819Why do the two people not like you?
why do people like to push back when you tell them to do shit? NOOOO I DONT WANT TO SUBMIT A TICKET NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOfuck off god damn it

>>100375460>>100375644bumping. please help me, my last job i snapped because of a similar situation but I'm trying to prevent it from happening now.
>>100377238That's just part of what you're getting paid to do.
>>100377260i got paid to help my boss, i didn't get paid to help a bunch of fucking monkeys. like jesus christ i don't know how it's possible but I always end up joining sinking ship teams and it's so fucking infuriating. like shit the other team knows we're down a few folks, can they stop making everything an urgent fucking thing
>>100377277Just tell your boss and keep going. Dealing with that is their problem not yours.
>>100377277Could be worse. You could be joining sinking ship companies like me.
>>100372870>creepsStop talking like a 4 year old
>>100377277oh my god im actually turning into an IT meme im not even in IT. how does this keep fucking happening to me? >>100377290like that yeah fucking THAT. why do other teams always make their problems my fucking problem? is it something I'm doing wrong? I swear to god, I can just be chilling working on my own project and tasks and then it's suddenly ANON PLEASE DO XYZ (no context) XYZ NOW NOW I NEED IT NOWand im like hold on, what the fuck is going on here. NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!
These puts your salaries in perspective, but is it really THAT high?Is seems excessively high.
>>100375460What the hell dude. Just tell them to leave you be. Is office/corporate culture this s0i-infused now that simply setting boundaries is too aggressive?
>>100372897That's where you're wrong, it's not repressed at all
>>100377194So I shadowed with the desktop team earlier this year. One of them threw me under the bus for no reason and relayed some jokey "chopping it up with the fellas" conversations I had to his boss and he told my boss (my fault for getting too comfortable). He then told another team member about it who was known for being very sensitive and now he doesn't like me either.
>>100377155kek
>>100377316I tell them to email me and just block it off and ignore their follow ups. But It's insanely annoying to see "Hey anon, can I get an update? anon can I get an update can i get an update? why isn't it working anon can i get an update can i get an update?????????" holy fuck man chill. i remember my boss brought it up a couple of times in the weeklies but nothing was resolved and he left like 3 weeks later.
>>100377316People start to fell "attacked" now and cry to HR.
>>100372897Trauma doesn't need to be invalidated, but overcome. If bullying is a source of trauma, for example, then work on not letting yourself get pushed around, and work on your athleticism so you can back yourself up more effectively. There are going to be shitheads everywhere in life.
not really the thread for this (or maybe it is) but I was thinking of starting a side business building PCs. I don't expect much business, maybe one PC a month, but I like building them and it's a hobby for me. My business plan would just be to order the parts at the lowest price supplier every time someone wants me to build something and then I am fully transparent about the price of the parts and just put on a building / installation fee. I guess that would work, right? Just not clear what the fee would be in 2024..
>>100377314$120k is like the minimum to own a home now without breaking the rules for what's financially healthy (IE they probably won't write a loan for you.)Then if you don't buy whole foods wholesale you have to go to a grocery store/walmart which have crazy high markup that's exploded over the past four years so yeah that sounds about right.You won't starve to death but you'll have periods where you have to share a house with another family and you won't be able to eat nice food etc.
>>100377314>These puts your salaries in perspective, but is it really THAT high?No it's not, this map is not precise enough to extract anything meaningful out of it. The same 2.5 mil dollar track home in the bay area would cost you 250k in shasta county for instance. That's a significant price difference.
>>100377392If you're going to do this then do it right. Assemble them in ESD-controlled areas (anti-static desk mats + wristbands).
Would you consider working for a company that has on-premise servers in 2024? They say it's because they are in medical sector and deal with sensitive data.btw I am trans if that matters
>>100377314Smells like bullshit to me. As long as you aren't financing 50k cars or living in a McMansion it should be fine.
>>100377423DevOps "engineer" here. Hell no, I've fucked around with on-premises servers before and it's annoying as hell. Now I work comfy cloud only remote and you'd have to give me a million dollar salary to work with on prem again.
>>100377434Oh yeah I forgot about cars. At those income levels you can definitely just get a used corolla. idk some people need a new Lincoln to be "comfortable" I guess but you'll get fucked by both interest and insurance. This would be a lot better if they defined what they were looking at.
>>100377462>Waaaaah I have a jobJust set up openstack and quit griping.
>>100377110If I was a Linux sysadmin I'd rather try to become an AWS cloud engineer than stare at Splunk and Wireshark all day.
>>100377418Of course. I plan to purchase a lot of things and write them off as business expenses. Like a workbench for mobo mounting etc. But warning aside, I've built maybe a dozen or so PCs without any anti static protection without issue. I just touch the PSU before I touch every other component every time. Isn't that enough?
Hey guys. I've heard of people getting their start in the military then transferring into the private sector, but what about the other way around? I have a degree and certifications- would it be a good idea to join the military with my skills?
>it's another "Indian man gets mad at me because I can't understand his barely comprehensible accent" episode
yup thanks guys i was asking for help before I did this and now I smashed my keyboard in half.great another $100 I'm going to need to use to pay off for a mechanical.
>>100377535>I have a degree and certifications- would it be a good idea to join the military with my skills?reserves? yesactive duty? noif you already have a degree and certs then you are still capable of getting a job as is. the reason why people go active duty is to pay for college.if you go reserves you'll still get assigned an MOS and go to training, but if you happen to get a top secret clearance as part of your training then you can get a government contractor job and just do your one weekend a month for the reserves.>anon if it's such a good deal why haven't you done that?I have an infant and don't want to abandon her for 2 months of basic and 6 months of training

Any canucks here? Yall think we will ever recover? Have been trying to find my first job for 5 months already without success.
>>100377669As a professional interview-attendee/interview collector/zoom samurai/initial call guru with 3 years of experience of never actually getting a job, the only advice I can give is don't even bother.
>>100377687I'm in Canada and doing fine. The salaries here are shit compared to the US but it's not like jobs don't exist. If you're looking for first job anywhere it's going to be hard right now. The play would have been to intern in university and work your ass off for a full time return offer. That's what I did.
>>100377742I got an offer for 42k/y, but that barely covers my rent of 2k.
>>100377742I had my new grad interview for an iOS engineer role at a manufacturing company. I faked a little too much on my resume and it came back biting me.The person who was interviewing me (PM) asked me in detail about the technologies I had listed and after a few moments I think he realised that I had faked it and didn’t really was able to walk the talk. He cut the interview short and asked me about non technical questions.I felt miserable after the interview and thought I had no chance to get through. It didn’t turn out well for me and was not hired.
>>100372897This
>>100374372begone thot
>>100377799>>100372897How do I fix it? I literally can't speak with people I don't know near me without making a massive effort. I was bullied hard in hs, I think I try to speak as little as possible so people won't feel like targeting me.
Listen here zoomers. Don't make the same mistakes I did. I'm in my late 30s with no job, no friends, no family, and no future. I made some dumb choices. Really dumb... I've basically thrown my whole life away from bad career decisions. I openly admit that I deserve to be as pathetic and miserable as I am. If this were a truly just world where everyone got what they deserved, then my situation would be even worse. People stupid enough to throw away that opportunities that I had don't even deserve to live. I urge you to do better.
i swear to god you are all cucklordsi feel DISGUSTEDusing any tech in this fucking year
>>100374360>it's about bein' a HECKIN' BETTER HUMAN BEAN!
>>100377835I'm 30 and just finished uni.
>>100377766My first job's salary was 55k a year, you take what you can get especially if times are rough. No one said you had to stay there but something is better than nothing. Start looking for a new position after 6 months there.Salaries will always be shit here compared to US, but it's going to open up a lot more opportunities once you have some real experience on your resume.>>100377787That's the problem with faking it till you make it. I've had interviews where it was pretty much just a soft skills interview and basic stuff. Even leetcode interviews can be grinded. But an experienced person with a technology can easily come up with caveats or situations that expose someone faking or clearly not as familiar as they claim.I don't know how others did this but in my resume back then I tried to clearly indicate which were the technologies I was intimately familiar with and which I only knew a little about.
>>100377579alright thanks anon
>>100377836Did you send this post by pigeon or something?
>>100377516cool thanks for your reply. reason I ask is I keep hearing people saying that breaking into cybersec is supposed to be super lucrative when you get a few yoe.
how can you not be a fucking cucklord using any of this tech in this year?go aheadenlighten me
>>100372792Promising to spend money they don't have. women never change.
My boss told me he almost didn't hire me because of how exhausted he was after the flood of "fake" applications, fake in the sense they say they are here in the usa but it's actually some indian in mumbai trying to trick the company into getting them a visa, he said I was the last person he screened because of how tiring it was.
Guys, there is a company in the US (I'm a Eurofag) that I would really love to work for, because they do exactly the kind of shit that I do.However because I estimate that it will still take me 1.5 years to finish my Ph.d, it is too early to interview with them. Do you have ideas how I can start building a rapport with them, before asking for an interview?They don't have a high profile and it's a pretty small company.
>>100377914this is the only fucking website on the entire fucking god dam fucking internet that isn't complete fucking cucklord gone to fucking shit cause you fucking dirty fucking cucklords suck fucking dick for free
>>100377535They'll take anyone who can fog a mirror at this point.You'll probably end up in the desert killing kids for Israel though.
>>100377926I did recruitment for my team as a first round tech filter and we went through about 100 pajeet visa scammers before we found a non-jeet for round 2. Honestly couldn't understand why HR didn't just auto discard pajeet resumes. It was fucking insane too they legit didn't even bother trying to answer the questions, they would all just screech I NEED A VISA I NEED A VISA until we hung up on them.
>>100377954drop out of studying and start working you dumb fucking studentfag. dumb fucking idiot what a stupid fucking question. in fact, keep doing your meme phd and fuck off
>>100377915so can being a cloud engineerthing about cloud is you end up wearing multiple hats anywaysall the cloud platforms have IDS/IPS, SIEM,and IAM tools built into them so even if your title is "cloud engineer" chances are you'll be doing security work in addition to administration work.After a few years of this you can try to land a cloud architect role for big bucks as well.A friend of a friend of mine is an Azure cloud engineer making over $150k and is trying to position himself for an architect role making over $200k.
>>100377954>Ph.dwhy
Is there a bigger meme in tech than someone with a PHD? The only use I can see for it is AI research, which to be fair is extremely lucrative now, but for anything else it's retarded.
>>100377977>Expecting HR roasties to use common sense
>>100378021They taught us the partial chain rule in undergrad. Do you really need a PHD for that?
>>100377833Idk dude. Introspection, practice, self awareness.
>>100377998>>100378009Literally everyone at the company has a Ph.D.It's one of those jobs where it actually matters to have one.It's a small R&D company.
>>100372792I hate my coworkers and I don't have any tangible reason why
how does a white Canadian male obtain employment in tech nowadays? unironically

>>100378201I need one disgruntled employee to do something funny soon.
>>100378202Me and my friends are only willing to accept contracts that ensure x months of work because of that, it's not fun to be hired and fired after 1 month.
>>100378197the good ones already have
>>100378217okay how bitchass fucking slave nigger is that you like to be called faggot?stfu retard downie fuckfucking mutt
>>100378246that's better
>>100378197I've looked into this and you need an employer for a TN and you're fucked if they fire you. After that it's a long ass process for a Green card and then to citizenship so no it's not really seamless.My problem is family, those visas and shit don't allow you to bring them I'd need to leave family for several years.
>>100378197>>100378240Fake news, we need a T1, which while easier to get than a H1B is still hard as hell, plus you always have the threat of being fired and then having to go back.
>>100378197if you manage to convince a US company to hire you, but they aren't doing that for anybody in this market and I'm not a fucking waterloo nerd lmao
Sirs, are we back?
>>100378197Immigrating to the US (legally) is an unbelievably difficult, finicky, and unpredictable process even from Canada. Canadians are welcome to cross the border to buy gas and use our interstate highway system (which they all do) though.
>feeling really shitty and need a break>can't just text boss "hey can I take a friday and monday off to refresh my mind"why the fuck is work politics so fucking annoying, other people just call off random days and it's fine but feeling to justify yourself to just relax seems fucking impossible.
>>100378352Hilariously, just ignoring all the bullshit and walking across like the mexicans do is by far the easiest and least fucked way of entering and staying in the US.
>>100378364have you tried?
>>100378310No ask again in at least a year
>>100378272It's a TN. They aren't hard to get, you just need a US job offer.https://twitter.com/danluu/status/1351785083598893062
>>100378394I will ask in the next thread, saar.
>>100378410Even convincing the border people is a nightmare, because only "Engineers" can get TNs, and that rule is not meant for SEs.
>>100378410also for any Canadians, the TN is not considered a visa but only for Canadians (not Mexicans). crucially this means you can answer no to the do you need sponsorship question on applications and then point to the immigration website as proof. although again, any company worth their salt will already know this entire process for Canadians.
i can't do this man all this shit is designed for homosexualsthis american jew china tech warit is all for homosexual i can't do this
>>100378445You're applying under the wrong TN category retard. SWEs fall under Computer Systems Analyst.
>>100377522Usually its enough, but I don't like taking chances. ESD damage doesn't always manifest as total failure. Rare instabilities (RAM/CPU errors) are an outcome.
>>100378445It helps to have an engineering degree somewhere, a company can also complete a form and send it in before you even arrive to the border. You then simply present your passport and a document saying you passed inspection, but I don't know how common this is especially in this job market.
>>100378382I'm gonna bring it up during my 1:1s to take one of the fridays off just to refresh. I don't know what's the reasoning if I ask though. I'm probably going to end up spilling my spaghetti and just say "i need it"
>>100378379Even the far left is in favor of violently deporting everyone who's done that now though. So it might not be the best long term decision.
>>100378500Just say you need some strategic downtime to rejuvenate your performance.
>>100373495??? What exactly is the problem? Just leave out the first two years. Just lie and say it took the normal amount of time. They don't know how long you were in school.

>>100378547I was told by my friend who work in a F1000 that they will find out during background check
YOU WANT MY FUCKING COOKIESCOME FUCKING GET THEM
>>100374302Not a very good song desu
>>100373635>Why am I fucked specificallyBecause you will be working alongside people who got good grades in those courses if you end up at a place worth working for. They will have work ethic and knowledge that you lack. If it were just one of those you missed you could overcome it but with both you're fucked and you likely won't make it to the interview process let alone through it.I know this is true because I had a 2.8 gpa overall after being fucking useless when I tried to major in Econ and the only reason I made it to interviews was luck of draw after 700 applications in 2020 when money was free as can be. The sole reason I made it through to get hired was being able to talk about classes I'd taken and show off projects I was working on to fill any space given. Keep that black mark off your resume if you can, maybe ask you schools career center what they think. If you're at a decently sized university they should have some CS guy who can give you specific advice on how to portray yourself.
