>Most of the fixes are the basic turn your computer off and on, re-log in, or
>All my development tasks are put on pause because of external office politics, anytime they come back the scope significantly changes where I have to redesign the whole thing. Senior leadership CANNOT take fucking no for an answer. Even when I'm restricted by this piece of shit software, they'll try to look elsewhere and even hire external contractors to weigh in options.
>Leadership gives no direction on whose taking what so I keep getting tickets for other teams and they're not telling me who to route to so stakeholders are getting mad at me and I'm just like why the fuck would you loop me in?
I know I know, I have to find a new job and I am but I'm going to be honest, most jobs in the market right now feel so trash. It feels like do 3 jobs for the salary of 1. Anyone else?

>>106389359
We're not. Only a small number of security jobs take references seriously. Everyone else is too scared of getting sued to be on either side of that conversation.

>>106389429
Sounds like you're fucked no matter what you do so why not just become passive, agree with whatever senior leadership says, and accept they might cut your position? If you fight it, the outcome is going to be the same but with a bunch of extra stress and aggravation. And since senior management likes toadies, your new passive attitude might get you kept around, even without your product living on. In the meantime, get your finances in order, reduce your expenses, and prepare for the possibility of being let go.
The job market is trash now. Don't view it as a life raft as there are no guarantees beyond your time being wasted.

I own a small R&D company for some weapons systems and other tech. espionage is something you need to learn how to deal with early.

set levels for what degree of protection your various documents need. you should obviously not store anything in "the cloud" unless it's airgapped, and preferably not even if you've encrypted it beforehand. in any case you should maintain your own servers - and their connections and access - using FOSS hyperscale cloud. you need to define what kind of threat actors that seem relevant to your physics.

make sure that any work computers have full-disk encryption in case of uncontrolled loss.

Internally it frustrates me dialing back since I feel like I could do way more but why bother if leadership isn't organized and can't fucking decide what they want.

there are a billion things AI has already solved like for example never having to write a regex from scratch, but people forgot about it already because they suddenly think it's normal you can just talk to a bot that gives you functioning code, when it was a revolution 3 years ago

>>106391231
>"no it sucks it's useless see look it does a math problem wrong"
yes because for most actual workers' use cases, AI is inappropriate. Either it is fundamentally not suited to the task, or might be helpful but doesn't have access to the data required, at least not without great cost involved in setting up a local model, time and money which could have been spent telling an intern to do it

it's also not comparable to mechanization/electrification/automobile transport since it doesn't offer the same nearly immediate cost/human capital savings nor represents a fundamental shift in how things are done. to the office roastie, churning data no one cares about through a load-bearing excel doc or smashing the Copilot button after feeding it a list are indistinguishable. same for natural language writing, you can ask AI to give you a form letter, or you can just reach for the pre-written form letter that has been around since 2004.

Trade schools will leave you with a comparable amount of debt (the median undergrad has <15k, and this is dragged upward by third tier toilet private schools preying on 1st gen students), for especially in based red states capping out at roughly 80k in 2025 dollars in skilled trades after 8 years. If you want more, you have to start your own business.

If I were you, I would focus on getting an internship with a respectable company, and if you don't, using a masters to stay in the recruiting pipeline. Also, remote is on the downswing, so it behooves you to try to move to somewhere with F500 presence or a tech hub where developers aren't a cost center.

the truth of the matter is that jeets are just as competent as their white counterparts. tech has always been a massive shitshow full of absolute retards propped up by the US fed and california's money printers

working for about 6 months now at my first big boy developer job. it's going well so far but i'm noticing that the more code i write, the more I forget what i meant when i wrote it. is this just a skill issue or am i doomed to write comments for each line of code explaining what i meant...

you dont have to do anything, but you better be networking pretty intensely if you want to have a job related to the degree at all. or start praying that they send the 700k immigrants and h1b in software dev back. more than half the field is immigrants in the US right now. theres an article floating around that claimed 80% of jobs for new grads were going to indians.

The answer is indians execs hire each other and if your entire reporting chain is filled with your cousins, your boss prakeet is going to turn a blind eye. My former firm’s entire product dev leadership got replaced by indians within 12 months, and the amount of sketchy shit they do with india-based contracting is unbelievable

I know my work should be more of "You should be happy, you should be taking more responsibility as a challenge" but my brain is also like "Every project you do just gets hijacked, nobody's ever happy with the solution you give so you have to always change things.", "Isn't it fucked up that you get a bunch of vague garbage to do and your coworkers get easy projects that are manageable?", "What's the point of working if nothing ever gets done?" I get this may be more of management to fix but I don't really have any motivation to do things and I really hate how when my boss asks me to do something it's sorta like "You should know this already" type tone even though nobody gave a shit about this 6 years running and now suddenly you want to revamp fucking everything and now everyone has to get out of their comfort zone because your boss is breathing down your neck. It sucks.

20 days of vacation + 5 'wellness' days

Really good and 100% covered insurance


Company B:
210k
10 days of vacation
Big Tech

>>106396043
Normally B since most people post shit without context.

A is were its at however for benies

Real question is location of each compared to where you live. IE will you have to move to a higher cost of living to get this kind of pay?

>>106396074
Both are in the same city.
Company A is a regional office with ~80 engineers
Company B is a regional headquarters with 1000-2000 engineers

>>106396124
Stick with A the regional office would be alot more hands off from corporate bullshit. Atleast that's my experience.

Other question is the 210k worth it to you if promotions are available? You will be dead end career wise in company A since there are less positions in this office than B to move around in. So really the ceiling for pay for company A is actually higher if you factor that in.

I've got a sample size of 1 but from what I've seen of Company A, they're actually proactive about promoting competent engineers. Guy I know went from L2 => L3 (senior) => L4 (staff) in 4 years and he doesn't exactly strike me as a software savant

interviewing for faang/startup type roles but they all will require me to relocate to hcol. not to the point in the process anywhere where im formally leveled but it looks like i i can pull 175-225k (potentially more in paper money depending on the role) which honestly is not that appealing to me. is it insane to stay where i am and ride it out?

Every single one that I worked with thought their ideas were perfect. Every time they try to execute it, it falls apart within minutes or just too clunky to use. Every time I propose an idea they end up calling it too simple, uninspired, not sexy, and etc but man did they always work as expected and kept everyone happy. Every time I have to deal with their shit and every time they somehow get some credit for the work. They're not bad engineers but their egos.

I need a USB thumb drive for school, does anyone have any recommendations?
I haven't had to use one in years so i don't know if any are shit or not

>>106396634
>school
anon, how old are you

>>106396634
Wrong thread retard. Get an external SSD sandisk/WD it will last longer. If it has to be a USB then PNY or Corsair is fine. Most other brands are shit

Is putting in effort at work cringe? Some say that you're just making some dude richer for no gain of your own. Others say that not putting in effort is a cope for people that don't have skills.

>>106396682
Just do above average. Not enough effort to get yelled at but more than enough effort to get eyes on promotions/new positions.

>>106396633
Thanks for the info. I feel like they probably give up if the issue is to hard on their part. Only their ideas exist to succeed in a vacuum of investor money and interns to augment the idea forward.

What kind of remote job you can get with 0 experience and an associate degree in CS? I'm going insane

>>106385360
man, this thread will last about a day (as in ~24 hrs). how is it going so fast?

>>106396756
Its normally the furry who makes it last 12 hours with his drunken retardation. But he has a job now so it lasts longer.

is this google? i'll bet it's google
>most of the team I work with decided to start fag coding.. I mean uh, vibe coding everything
>many pointless bugs introduced
>can't trust much for what was written
but I don't care, so I barely spend effort reviewing the cl's and let someone else approve.

Just had to explain to our API guy what the difference between depreciated and removed is. Holy fuck where do they get these people?

>hr manager told me in confidence that she can't stand working with jeets
>she's unironically started signing her emails with "do the needful" to piss them off whenever she wants us all to do some mandatory hr bullshit
Brings a tear to my eye, really does.

I WISH /trash/ was the designated furry board. /vg/, /d/ and /aco/ seem to believe it's free real estate.

new manager who's supposed to be hands on asks me to explain basic task to him
in the middle of it I can tell he has no idea what im even remotely talking about and he suddenly starts gaslighting me that this was all about getting the requirements correct so the ICs could do it

where the fuck do they find these people

>>106396682
Trying is healthy, coasting is just depressing

>>106396536
HCOL area also implies higher taxes. Startups have no work life balance. FAANG is hit or miss. The main thing you're getting out of it is having your resume look better.

There's no point in doing anything if you're not gonna do your best. Being mediocre is for mediocre people. Even if they were working for their own business or side gig they would still not try hard, everything else is cope. Society and civilization exist not because of rules laws or unit tests, but because someone decided to do their work and due diligence or review the PR thoroughly. You have no right to complain about anyone else sucking at their job or poor customer service or whatever if you don't do your own well.

>>106396682
>Some say that you're just making some dude richer for no gain of your own.

If everyone had this kind of thinking society would collapse. If you think it's unfair, you shouldn't have gotten into this line work. You already signed the contract. Why do you have an issue with something that's already agreed upon?

If you're just coasting by, people will eventually notice and you will lose trust and not gain any skills, so you'll end up fucking yourself in the long run.

The people that tell you to slack off are just trying to drag you down.

>Others say that not putting in effort is a cope for people that don't have skills.

This can also be true.

Lots of traffic and much smaller than NYC or LA. You could have fun for a year if you're open minded, but it'd get old fast for me.

Despite what all the blackpillers say, actual hard work is usually rewarded. At least in my experience.

Your best efforts are best saved for personal endeavors. It's an unpleasant lesson other people here have not learned yet

Are they actually asking you what SQL stands for in an interview or did you just try to brag about your knowledge?
