Thoughts on this cert?

>you don't get to solve anything nor do you have any real authority
So you get paid 6 figures to move tasks across a kanban board? Take the paycheck and use your (large amount of) free time to solve issues that will generate income.
>>106975008
>then next month they'll ask the same question
So what? Go spend the day "researching" a way to do it and give them the exact same answer.
>Already did and they never look at it
Why would they? Just ask them if you have any questions or let them know when you're done.
>Maybe we're on the wrong foot but it really seems like your dicksucking the businessfags dick holy fuck.
You're just immature anon. You will eventually understand that there is no reason to get irrationally upset at their silly questions and requests. At the end of the day, you are literally being paid to be available 8 hours a day, and your job is to increase profits, whether through reducing costs(like saving time for businessfags) or generating revenue.
>I'm in the middle of the whole NO BUSINESS BOSS WE CANNOT JUST USE AI FOR EVERYTHING.
Don't write shit off immediately. Even if it doesn't seem like AI is a good fit, tell them you'll take some time to research the usecase, and come back with a report of why it's not a good fit. Boom, you're getting paid to jerk off for a day or two since you had AI write that report in 5 minutes. Better yet, come up with a good usecase for "implementing AI" that will make excite them and then "spend a few weeks" on it.

Use linkedin like twitter. Who gives a shit. You dont get hired from there anyway. Flex on dumb midwits on the daily worried about their reputation and scared of their bosses. It's fun as hell.

>boss tells me to test new application he worked on
>during our meeting he says that people who use AI are going to succeed in the coming year and the future of programming will almost completely involve LLMs
>i test out his repository and it's a vibecoded abomination that doesn't work and is full of inconsistencies

The technologies we use like Ruby and Docker are sparse enough in documentation that GPT 4.1 hallucinates a bunch despite my coworkers being way too confident in it. And I know I'm going to end up having to clean up that repository soon. In this job market I wouldn't even be mad about being the ChatGPT janitor but don't sell me on it, save the cognitive dissonance.

Two more days...and this week will be over.

>>106977765
Same here actually. I don't know why I would have expected anyone to say anything. The guy who sits next to me says gm sometimes. We're not on the same team though, so that's it. There's one guy I see occasionally who's from the team I used to be on, but he completely ignores me. Won't even acknowledge me.
I wish my head would stop hurting though... The cut isn't that bad, hopefully it stops bleeding and by tomorrow I can go without a bandage. I might have cracked my skull though...

I think tomorrow ill uber in at 11, try the ham, and ride the shuttle back at 4

Nice, good work getting into Meta!
Keep the lunch updates coming!
Today I had the mall-tier Chinese food and it was... pretty good!
I actually had it on Monday too... but there wasn't anything else I wanted. Some days there's too many good options to choose from, and some days there's basically none...

im not lying brother, we all in this together
5yoe, non-swe (data)
recruiter reached out in may, phone screen
2 weeks later 1 hour tech screen
1 month later 30min behavioral + 3x1h "full stack"
1 week later got the yes
2 weeks team matching
first offer 230k, got 265k +15k starting by just asking, no other offers (not bragging i know it's not the craziest)

good luck

yeah I have masters, not in my field though (hardware-related eng field)

A. They think it will be a money maker later
B. They think only one or a few companies will control it, so they think it's worth spending now to try and be one of those few later
C. Their other businesses (advertising) generate so much cash that they have money to burn
D. There's a bunch of companies doing A B and C, so they all bid against each other for talent
>>
>>106979021
people think ai is lucrative -> people buy companies' shares -> companies hire ai engineers

once the people with money stop thinking it's lucrative there won't be any more ai engineers
with that said, it begs the question: where are they gonna go to? they're far more capable than your average swe.

usually i would agree but they often refer to me to explain a b c with the product and be the translator between engineering and c suite/board. it's just turbo fucked.

the issue they made was to harvest user data and fortunately, the users screamed war
