The autistic girl in the Microsoft FY26 SBC training is kind of cute

why would you watch the training instead of just ignoring it and clicking next every once in a while
>>
Because it's a video. They film scenes for it around campus. The production levels for the training videos is on par with basic cable tier. The writing is shit though... because it's corporate training.

Do you guys hide your power level at work? I find that being competent just causes problems. Pisses off your seniors when you have to show them what to do, makes your peers standoffish and insecure because they think you make them look bad, and in 90% of cases your boss CAN'T promote you or give you a raise anyway, but they'll happily lean on you for everything anyway

Peak midwit problem, I know, but I was too busy doing drugs in college to have a strong career start

I have a hard time believing young tech person is objective when they make statements like these. 9/10 times it is the cliche smarmy fat tech nerds who THINK they know it all. But they sometimes don't understand that if they do it their way , it might set them up for race conditions or some other problem down the line - ie you don't know what you don't know

in any case, isn't it a matter of looking at the changelog and replacing some operators and functions with some other, maybe?

Do you every just work a long shift and wonder what your deceased mother would think about what you are doing?

See, I'm an unlucky sort, my parents are blood related; first cousins. My mom would walk around our trailer park in cheap lingerie from goodwill. She taught me well enough, but she also made getting laid impossible. In high school I asked out my crush and she laughed that the inbred had a crush on her. I got rapped in the locker room by her brother later. My dad died from prostate cancer soon after my sister-cousin was born. I'm 38 years old, never had sex with a woman and working at a start up. My mom would say that she is proud of me but honestly I kinda wanna off myself

He wants to jump from Java 6 to Java 21.
Shit's mad old.
There are no replacements for libraries.
And even if we crafted our own, "the architects" made such shit apis that they are shit to extend AND they leak the implementation, so you can't just replace the implementation behind the api, you have to go play whack a mole on the codebase.
Yet another case of Clean Code retards that should have kept it simple.
>>
>>106925769
oh, I see. not sure what you mean by "they leak the implementation", but that looks like a lot of unnecessary, retarded work
can you use LLMs at work? maybe that could help speed up things a bit. also, can you re-architect the whole thing?
good luck anon.

>not sure what you mean by "they leak the implementation"
You have a library called Apache POI, it does things with Excel.
To avoid importing it everywhere, you write a wrapper class ExcelWrapper. The methods it has are newPage, writeOnPage, saveFile, rather than apacheNewWorkbook, apacheWriteBytes, apacheSaveOutputStream.
You import ExcelWrapper from other places and you never see the Apache library, it is encapsulated.
Well, now you want to do writeOnPage(..., int extraFlags) to extend functionality. And rather than doing int extraFlags, they did writeOnPage(..., ApacheFlags extraFlags), so now you have to know about ApacheFlags and bring POI everywhere and make sure it's a POI version with valid ApacheFlags. You know what's behind the api, it leaked the implementation.
>can you use LLMs at work?
Yes, they use them.
>maybe that could help speed up things a bit
I have to clean their slop and it slows me.
>can you re-architect the whole thing?
No. It's a political thing. muh battle tested proven code reuse (that causes out of memory errors in production).

You sound like an argumentative faggot with a stick up his ass who has to have things done HIS way, because he read about them on a blog of another impressionable autist or wants to apply perfect CS scenarios to real life or worse.
I tend to "hide my power level" via finishing my task quickly and then fucking around, but revealing it once and again to make myself appear competent and indispensable (works - got promoted to mid after a year) without becoming a workhorse that won't get anything extra for his workaholism anyway.

Got laid off for "performance" even though my manager rated my performance high and was happy with it 2 weeks ago in the review
>inb4 go to utwg
There isn't a thread up right now, and I'm still technically employed until the end of the month so you have to deal with my presence in the thread until at least one of those things changes

Not worried about finding a job or getting interviews because I have worked at a household name even normies [non-tech men] know, and this job was at a company everyone in tech knows, or at least their flagship product


So I guess the plan is to apply to 30 jobs a day while doing a little neetcode and a little bit of actual learning too (I want to go through karpathy's lectures and the fast.ai course and learn how to build a GPT). But I'm assuming that actually getting an interview will come from reaching out personally and from my network. Either that or out-jeeting the competition with AI fleecing like hidden prompts with white text on white background etc

>>106925733
Thanks for sharing this anon, it really puts into perspective how everyone has a different journey. I didn't really like any of my coworkers they were all kind of faggots but if you can be 1.5x my age and get raped as a boy with an incest whore mom and still have a good life I'm sure I'll be just fine.

Once you hit 30yr alot of those friends just melt away. Far to many people move around for work and they aint got much choice in that matter. Family is hit and miss i got a small immediate family and non existant extended family.

These are the 2 worst groups for any sort of advice more serious that choice of a snack or socks color.
