You don't even really have to do leetcode or neetcode. Whenever I have an interview coming up, I just watch a few of free neetcode's YT videos, maybe one or two from each category, and that's enough to refresh my memory on how to solve the problems.

You must be really smart anon. I bet you make a lot of money too.

>>103065408
Idk if I'm all that smart, but I make decent money. It helps that I write a lot of code and I use all of the different data structures in projects pretty regularly... it's just I need a refresh on some of the algorithms.

>>103065476
You code this stuff for fun? You're lucky if you do leetcode-type things at work. I have to grind because my brain turns to mush from working on bizshit/webshit code and I have no time to do side projects.

How do I bullshit my way into literally any tech position? I'm working on my degree but I cannot fucking live on 18/h from a bullshit job and I'm wasting my life and I live paycheck to paycheck.

at the start of every week, project management takes a massive shit on my desk. then i have to triage every issue with their dumpster fire and be the scapegoat for their awful implementation. all the while i didn't even know this project existed. i almost have to wonder if they are purposely obtuse out of pure malice for IT or just flat out retarded. probably the latter.

I got promoted this week. My bosses indirectly said they were scared of losing me ("we know other companies are reaching out to you"). I still plan to leave the company in a few months, I get opportunities from recruiters that would double my current salary. I just wanted to be able to say I did a good job in my first role, now that I've done a good job it's time to move on.

My guess is that my company (over 20k people) can see LinkedIn metrics on certain people (like me), I only get reached out to "in writing" on LinkedIn from competitors, I get roughly one serious message per month. I expect my LinkedIn to be monitored which is fine because the actual offers I'm considering aren't on LinkedIn, I would never use LinkedIn for actual jobseeking, only the meme of scaring my current employer and making myself look competitive, because apparently no one has a skillset and credentialing and location that I do. A recruiter directly told me I am "one of a dozen people in [large metro] with your combo", I didn't respond to that guy just like I didn't respond to the other dozens of recruiters and CEOs and everyone else directly messaging me, I didn't say anything when directly accosted by my bosses in the pre-promotion chat we had, I know my worth as a hard worker and so does everyone else, if I say I'm going then the world will acknowledge and flip in my hands willingly.

Reposting:

Who should I vote for, twg? I'm legitimately evenly split between kamala (less chaos, slightly better economic policy, obvious downsides), not voting at all (maybe the moral choice) or Trump (tiny chance at reversing American decline at the cost of extreme instability and more billionaire corruption). Bonus points go to the candidate who will do the most damage to the software industry.

>>103067970
Write-in Joe Biden, presidency doesn't matter, Trump was ineffective and so was Biden, Kamala will be no better, enjoy the ride and get rich while the rest of America continues to suffer

>>103067970
*environmental policy

>>103067987
Its moronic to say the two will be the same, although I agree that the event horizon of decline has probably been crossed already.

>>103068007
All the major issues like Control Asylum Policy (previous Trump) and Release Student Debt (current Biden) and Deport Criminal Aliens (future Trump) and 25K First Homebuyers (future Kamala) will just get shot down in court like all the previous shootdowns, it will be exactly the same, Congress refuses to make any changes and the courts will continue to destroy everything else.

>>103067970
Jill Stein is the only one against war.

>>103068007
Biden has visibly been a puppet for 4 years, why do you think the others are any different? Voting draws you into the system and tells them you consent.

>>103067970
I don't think it matters at all. Stock market and corporations run the country. You probably don't even live in a swing state so your vote doesn't matter to begin with.

>>103067970
If you want to utterly destroy the tech industry then your choice is Trump, he's planning on stapling green cards to foreign graduates which basically means indians.

>>103068113
War is good for business.

Right, so he clearly isn't in charge of his administration and yet everything's going as normal. It's almost like the president doesn't actually do anything.

>>103068273

From the narrow interest of a tech worker, probably Kamala because she doesn't isn't going to bring in more """high skill immigration""" aka Jeets with Masters from third-tier toilet degree mills. You can't trust a guy with Vivek and Vance who's married to an Indian to come down hard on the J(eet)Q.

Broadly, I think the benefits of cracking down on immigration-facillitating NGOs such that they self-deport and the crown in the gutter of "arrest criminals and vagrants" outweighs Trump being weak on J(eet)Q.

>>103068398

You will never be a real programmer. You have no commits, you have no pull requests, you have no public repos. You are a low IQ brown man twisted by an unearned comp sci degree and coding bootcamps into a crude mockery of nature's perfection.

All the “validation” you get is two-faced and from bots. Behind your back people say that you're a useless DEI hire. Your parents are disgusted and ashamed of you, your “tech bros” laugh at you behind closed doors.

Real programmers are utterly repulsed by you. Even devs who “pass” have no creative output and excessively verbose with techno buzzwords. Your GitHub profile is a dead giveaway, and even if you manage to score a 3 month internship at a tech company, a real company will turn tail and bolt the second they sees that you haven't completed any non school related projects.

You will never be happy. You cope by saying that your bullshit software is using a proprietary test framework so you can't open source it, but deep down you know it's because you don't want people to see your incompetence, and that the core of your software is actually an open source project which you're shamelessly profiting off.

Eventually it will be too much to bear. You'll buy a google gift card, a spoofed business phone number, and start scamming old people into redeeming.

This is your fate. This is what you chose. There is no turning back.

Hey bros, if I may solicit some advice from you-
I just started a small business after I quit my IT job at a University because I couldn't take the DEI shit and commie culture anymore. I have a second iPhone as the business telephone line.
I don't want to carry two phones in my pocket as I work all day. I'd like to leave the business iPhone in my work van.
I'll always be within 25 feet of my van.
Does Apple Watch allow me to take calls on my business iPhone from the wrist watch itself?
If so, is there a cheap chinese knock off that can do the same but cheaper?
I must answer every call even if just to tell them I'm busy and will call them back right away.
Thanks bros.

Why is anyone in here trying to get into this industry? You have to be a fucking idiot if you don't have specific reasons.

Not really. It's a lot harder to become a doctor, get into finance, or become a biglaw lawyer.

>All the time you spend optimising the wording and layout you could be spending networking
You can't just start "networking" when you need a job. Networking is corporate woo for having successful friends or some family members who aren't losers

If you haven't had a real job a degree definitely helps a lot. After that it's not super interesting.
Also there's some basic stuff you may have missed teaching yourself that people will expect you to have seen in college (some math, some CS, some communications etc) that you might have not realized is important.

If it's free it's definitely a good idea.

Let me offer a humble proposal: don’t respond to anyone who hasn’t accomplished anything. Ever. Certificates and degrees are not accomplishments; I mean real-world projects with real-world users. There is no excuse for software developers who don’t have a site, app, or service they can point to and say, “I did this, all by myself!” in a world where Google App Engine and Amazon Web Services have free service tiers, and it costs all of $25 to register as an Android developer and publish an app on the Android Market.

Spicy take, but there is some trvth to it. I'm semi retired since covid put wfh on the map tyvm, it just pisses me off that my mental faculties are not what they used to be. I'm really grateful 99% of zoomers are completely useless and have a worse work ethic than me

I did a PhD for 5 years, I worked 2 years as an academic researcher. During those 7 years, I have managed research projects, coded a lot, taught students etc. Now, I'm applying for jobs outside of academia. What should I state as my experience? What roles should I apply for? I kinda don't think that I should apply for the same jobs as some 21 year old bachelor graduates with literally zero experience.

If I am a self taught dev and mainly program databases, sometimes work with C# and JS, would it be worth for me to learn assembly programming or doing a course in C compiler development?
I've found that learning low level stuff helps me understand how things work, where devs with degrees and more experience struggle to get it, but that has all been in relation to databases.
So I am not sure if learning assembly or C compiler programming would be worth it?

You do SQL? That would be creating and querying databases, possibly even creating stored procedures for them, not programming them. Programming databases doesn't really make sense.
But no. That would be retarded, you don't even know C so why are you thinking about taking a course for its compiler? And why would you think learning assembly would help you when the lowest level language you assumedly know is C#?

Probably not. How would it help you? If you landed one job then there's a high chance you can land another so it's unlikely to help much in getting hired. If you're chummy with HR/the boss you could discuss it with them, ask them what they think about resumes with a masters instead of a standard degree.
You may get a slight pay bump I guess, you also might not.

You think they're gonna pass the new guy's resume around the office and have everybody read it?
The only time there are possible consequences of lying is if they figure it out during the interview. You run a risk if you're making up entirely fake jobs that will red flag a background verification or lying about things you have literally 0 experience with and can't even BS about for 3 minutes. Anything else is open season

>>103082202
It's kind of blatantly obvious at this point. I'm seeing tons of job postings crop up with @outlook emails for official businesses that definitely have their own mail domain. All of them have the same job description, salary, and everything. A few of these places are run by indians. It's all just a scam. I've reported these postings and the same exact ones pop up next month without any action being taken, it's fucking ridiculous.

>>103085509
Even if only 10% of people with a gap have a bad reason for it (fired, jail, lazy, etc.), filtering every single resume with a gap:
>drastically reduces the number of resumes recruiters have to manually read
>guarantees they won't waste time interviewing someone with a rare "bad" gap
>still leaves enough resumes to find a suitable candidate
Basically, it makes the recruiter's job way easier with no noticeable downsides from the company's point of view, even if it's unfair to the candidate.

Say I get the following applicants:
>500 Indians
>10 suitable candidates with no gap
>the 9 best devs in the US, who just happen to have resume gaps
>1 convicted rapist

If I don't filter out resumes with a gap, I have to individually read 20 resumes and potentially call 20 people, and one of them (the rapist) is a complete waste of my time. If I filter everyone with a gap, sure, I'm losing 9 amazing candidates, but who cares? I still have 10 suitable candidates to sort through, and one of them will probably fill the role just fine.
