>>101590206>usually after about 2 years it's time to go.I know this is what it takes to get bigger paycheck sooner or later eventually, especially for guys under 30, but is it worth it to deal with interviews and learning the new company culture all over again? The new place might have bigger bullshit than the previous.
How to deal with a colleague that always gives his personal opinion on PRs?Like, god that is so dumb, why did you do it A instead of way B?Instead of, you can also do it B.
>>101593245Tell him to do it himself then, my colleague and I said that to our PO saying we didn't need to do this and that to develop a solution. Do it yourself since you know better you fucking cunt.
finished the 60 "intro" arcade questions from codesignal in 4 days. the hardest one was probably on the same level as one of the more easier "hard" questions on leetcode, but my brain is still fried as fuck. didnt really learn anything new as i was able to solve all of them without looking things up, but i can recommend it if you havent done DSA in a while to get back into the rhythm.
>>101593163did we, dare i say it, peak in Q4 2024?
>>101593376?
My company overhired like crazy in non-tech roles, now they ran out of money and are freezing recruitments. We have yet to recruit engineers because we can't find good candidates, this is fucking over.
>>101593163fascinating analysis, can you also plot /twg/ posting activity alongside it? ti would be funny if it spiked along with the interest rate. i guess you could normalize it relative to all samples averaged across time or something
>>101593522twg wasn't established back then
Could we do a strawpoll or something, I'm really curious to know how many people posting in this gen are actually employed vs unemployed anons. I feel like the ratio of unemployed people is much higher but I'm curious.
>>101593533oh i see, /twg/ *was* the reaction to the interest rate LOL
>>101593467no just use the developers login, i didnt use their learning platform
>>101593563i dont have job nor a job paying me to do leetcode
>>101590712https://www.recruiting.af.mil/Portals/78/GS%2021-038%20Air%20Force%20Education%20Opportunities%20Digital.pdfIt would be through OTS. The officer options you get with the military are varied and have different slot openings depending upon your entrance. Academy brats for example get there first pick so long as they meet the minimum requirements.But so long as your willing to wait for your selected position to open you are fine. Having good fitness standards IE ideally 55 pushups / situps - 10 pullups(not on the test) - 10-11 min 1.5 mile run will help before you go. I would also recommend doing 100, 8 count burpees before all of your workouts since it dramatically helps your endurance and strength. You also need to study for and pass the AFOQT since that takes the place of the ASVAB and counts for job placement. Same goes with having a high GPA for certain positions like pilot and intelligence. https://www.test-guide.com/free-afoqt-practice-tests.html
>see colleagues leetcode activity going up dramatically over the last couple of daysshould i snitch?
>>101593745
>>101593745Why would you? What benefit is there to snitching on them?
>>101593682>this picThis was me when I was unemployed and living my best life, my cat keeping me company while I learnt to play the guitar. My father was still alive then.
Work? never did it.Time? never tracked it.Reports? never filled them.Parking? never paid for it.Traffic? never waited in it.Lunch? never missed it.Farts? never held them.Showers? never took them.Mornings? never saw them.Sleep? never skipped it.My teacup is filled,My lunchbox is packed,Yeah, and my backpack is fullof stuff that makes me rule (badass)This post is dedicated to all my neet brosNeeting it up 24/7, it aint easy being neetyAlways wagies trying to chum up my vibesWith their onerous wagecage diatribes
>>101593785Some people are just born to be miserable bootlickers. Someone in my company got fired for badmouthing a colleague, he just said "ugh he's never around when we need him" and that was it. Hope this happens to that anon.
>>101593785idk just in a hater mood
>>101593815>all my neet bros>tech workers generallegit why do you guys even hang out here
>>101593682>Academy brats for example get there first pickDoesn't that mean the glut of unemployable CS majors will take all the tech positions?
>>101593163God I hope trump comes back and makes money free again

Any recommended way on how to get into Kubernetes, AWS, Terraform?This seems to be a requirement for any backend role recently.
>>101594666What do you mean get into? How to use them as a dev? How to admin them? Your question is too broad.
>>101594680Good morning sar
>>101594666I hate those things specifically because learning to use them for hobby/side/learning projects is vastly overkill, so the only way to get experience using them is via work. [spoiler]I'd argue they're overkill for most companies too unless you're truly global scale and need 24/7 uptime.[/spoiler]

>>101594915You're unemployed shut the fuck up
>>101594882>>101594860>>101594833books are scams lol400 pages of a guy repeating the docs to you
>>101595063>books are scams lolbooks are FREE you dumbass how is it possibly a scam?
>>101594495Babysitting a data center from what I understand
>>101595073no they're not, and if they are they scam you out of your time
>>101595063>books are scams lolUnironically just give up on life at this point, there's no future for you.
>>101595092cost: 0$ (free)knowledge: pricelessannoying yt grifters in my ear: 0vague as fuck unhelpful docs: 0scam udemy/online courses: 0just me, myself, and a bunch of tomes that a bunch of people wrote their knowledge into so that I could learn in a pure and focused way. you should try it sometime
>>101595108Books were relevant and very important before the internet. Now they aren't.
>>101595135>now you can read a book on a computer instead of on paper>this makes books obsolete because ???It's literally written knowledge. You're a luddite faggot who probably worships chatgpt like it's some sort of machine-god.
>we're looking for devops engineers>yeah, the company has been outsourcing to India>yeah, we could really do with getting some people state side>no experience? nah, we can train you. No problem.>1 week later>yeah, comes out we would really prefer experienced engineers>yeah, I know you have an engineering degree but we want people that really know devops>you know, people that can hit the ground running>we're a Series F startup so we can't afford to train>you should try applying to an early stage start upthis cycle will never end of only wanting "experienced" applicants whatever "experienced" means to them
>>101595170You wouldn't have this problem if you read a book
>like 10 developers>40% is external>barely any seniority>company wants to hire indians so we get more developersyeah, great idea. who is going to guide them because we can barely guide juniors, let alone indians
>>101595170>>101595260>indians>frauds>stinky>hate women>desperate for a jobthey're literally like 90% of anons here
>>101595083if they are asking you about hvac and electrical it sounds like you would be an onsite "engineer", aka glorified janitor if you seriously want to do that you should join the building engineers union and make stacks babysitting a high rise
>>101595289they're also ugly and brown
>>101595170>whatever "experienced" means to themIt means they want 0 qualified applicants so they can buy an H1-B lottery ticket.

Is the job market actually that bad? I'm getting really anxious if I'm gonna end up being unemployed for months until idk, decide to work at a fastfood or something.
I have a question fellow /g/ents. is it worth learning Openshift over Kubernetes? Some people tell me Kubernetes is the right choice because is widely used compared to Openshift, but others have told me that knowing Openshift is the right for making good money but not everybody uses it.
>>101595824just realize how inefficient reading actually isvideos are 1000x more potent information and can convey in a minute what a book needs an entire chapter for
>>101595453Which is fair, there is a reason Mr. Vance was picked, and that is because Indians are amazing tech workers.
>>101595978Of course you're a tiktok fag that can't possibly read, you just had to be.
I've given up /twg/. I'm not gonna work in tech anymore. I hate the tech sector so much. I'm gonna do side hustles online until I run out of money and then I'm going to kill myself. See you on the other side.
>>101594553Meh, I probably don't have the right kind of experience for this job anyway, and idk why they're even bothering to interview me. I'll show up and do what I can, but I have low expectations. I'm not even all that interested in the role.
>>101595260Unless they plan on having someone full-time wrangling them, it will fail. Offshore pajeets need strict written instruction because they will do the bare minimum to meet your requirements (if that).
>>101596106Can't you just do something else instead of killing yourself? Trying to pick up another, more fun job instead of literal death doesn't sound too crazy.
>>101596124It's fine I've had plenty fun in life. It's been getting old for a while. My passion for tech has died and along with that, as I have I.
>>101596016Strawman argument...
>>101595978>videos are 1000x more potent information and can convey in a minute what a book needs an entire chapter forSolid bait.
>>101596264Your brain's visual machinery is incredibly powerful (high bandwidth), while interpreting a long string of words is not (low bandwidth).
bros, I've been getting mixed answers. For Amazon interviews, are you supposed to literally name the leadership principle(s) you're referencing or do you just word your story so it's obvious which leadership principle(s) you're referring to and let the interviewer figure it out? >>101595962I have no idea, because all I hear about it on the Internet is that there aren't any jobs anymore but everything I hear about it at work is "Why is it so FUCKING HARD to hire someone" and our pay is pretty reasonable.
>>101595975I feel like you'll see openshift in specific iaas companies or large enterprises while k8s could pop up anywhere
>>101596313>everything I hear about it at work is "Why is it so FUCKING HARD to hire someone [who isn't garbage]"
>>101595975openshift is k8s with extras, you need to know k8s to know openshift
>>101596310Well, yes, for things that depends highly on dynamic imagery, the video might truly be better medium.However, we are talking about programming, which is about reading and writing stuff. Written tutorials might be better fit there.Also, it's not like written words don't go through the visual machinery you mention.But I guess it depends on the person a lot.
>>101596106What do you hate about working in tech?
>>101593682i hope you're all prepared to be a pincushion for pharmaceutical companies bros. follow this anons advice so you can all be properly forcibly vaccinated for everything under the sun.
>>101595962>The number of students in the U.S. majoring in computer and information science has jumped 40% in five years, to more than 600,000 as of 2023. The number of bachelor's degrees conferred in those majors topped 100,000 in 2021, according to the Department of Education, a 140% rise from 10 years earlier.the projected job growth between 2020-2030 is only expected to be about 400k for software dev. this doesnt even count h1b or bootcampers. even when rates go down and economy recovers a bit its still going to be very tough.
>>101596310You are literally disabled
>>101596501You use the visual machinery to identify words one by one, maybe 3 at a time, but you're required to read a thousand words across many pages to really get to the key information.
>>101596746let me guess: you were held back in school because of poor reading skills? i can read hundreds of pages in a day. you are literally a retard who needs baby sensory videos in order to understand or process any information.
>>101596775how did you know
>>101596421>>101596399Mmm, after reading your posts I think I'll go for kubernetes and if my boss approves, I'll for openshift later. Thank u sirs.
>>101596896Kys kike
>>101596775Strawman again...
>>101596914B-but I'm south american
Why isn't there a company like uber for software dev? It would be good for everyone, easy to find work, easy to find workers and cheap.
>>101596930The anon who told you you were disabled wasn't joking btw, you might want to look into your issues. I mean it.
>>101597001I wasn't joking, most people are disabled in some shape, they just learn masking from an early age.
>>101596993Fiverr, Upwork, et al. exist. You're competing with 3rd worlders with zero cost of living. Also Upwork makes applicants pay to send applications. Not sure how that's legal. Fiverr might do it too.
>>101597245I don't see the issue, that's the free market, if you can't compete with some third worlders you aren't fit for the task.
>stay at job for minimum of 2 years per employer>long enough to gauge whether or not it's somewhere i really want to work>also gives me enough time to establish rapport across the whole company>generally if I don't receive a raise >= 10% or a promotion around the 2 year mark I bail for money++ somewhere else>repeat ad infinitum>just passed 2 year mark at job i kinda fuckin hate>get promoted to staff engineer, 12% raise and 20% bonus>now stuck for another 2 years to repeat the cycle i created for myselfi think i've finally been golden handcuffed fellas. at 185k/year. not faang level by any means by for only 7 YOE i'm doing quite well. fuck. i really hate this job.
>>101596163There are so many things you could like apart from tech, hell I don't care that much for it either anymore. Fuck around, find a new passion, try new things you got nothing to lose anymore anon
