why the fuck did you move to the states? It's not the 90s, Europe is vastly better aside from the UK and Ukraine. Most of the places that were nice in the states like California, Texas, Florida, NY and Washington state are fucking shitholes now. Actual junkie nation but with retards on 'meds' all around you, often with glocks and tracial and ethnic tribalism you don;t want to be part of. The EU is better in every way imaginable, roads, trains, healthcare, schools, crime. I've lived all over both and gave up on the US a decade ago. There are a couple of places in Europe as bad as it like naples and marsailles and serbia but even in those shitholes people are not as generally drugged up mental and potentially lethally dangerous to passers by

Maybe embedded engineering where you have to do 1,000 iterations between programming and physical testing. If not, it's even more replacable than webdev.

The issue isn't technical debt, bad code quality or anything else because humans suck at that too. What matters is whether or not the person behind the AI can fix errors in the application when even the AI is running in circles.

Money means nothing when you live in a shithole.

Also, what ameriturds fail to understand is that the most important thing about money is the purchasing power, not how many figures you have in your account.

Luckily Trump is making sure that Americans lose even more purchasing power than they lost under Biden. Enjoy earning $200k a year (before taxes) while paying $10k a month for rent.

My boss hates my guts and gives me bullshit work to do while I see everyone else get nice, fancy projects. I want to job hop, but my actual experience is "fix bugs".
My question is this: I can easily study the projects my coworkers have done and say on the resume I did it. However, I am worried that on Linkedin I'll get spotted by my work/coworkers into claiming work I didn't do. As such, I am wondering if there's a way to sorta anonymize it/block my coworkers and boss on linkedin.

for how much americans bitch about literally everything, they have no clue how good it is compared to anywhere else. but we neednt worry because america is headed towards this exact situation at breakneck pace.

its still technically possible to make a "decent" living in america. this doesnt seem to be the case in a lot of european countries, especially the ones that get glazed regularly by redditors due to the worlds most obvious and retarded propaganda campaigns ever run.

obviously. but they do tend to share themeing in social and economic policy.
the ones that run constant propaganda campaigns are the nordic ones. and its mega fucking stupid too.

like a photo op of a school lunch which says "this is what people in sweden eat EVERY DAY"

or "finland ranked happiest country in the world!!" which every finn would tell you is a total joke. all the nordic countries have suicide rates comparable to the US which is astoundingly bad, and they have some of the highest SSRI consumption in the world. yeah that sounds real "happy" to me. you would have to be retarded to believe something like this at face value, but people legitimately do.
or who knows the entire internet is just bots now anyway.

having a job becomes much more tolerable when your only other option is starving on the streets
having a job is miserable when you still feel like you have other, more comfortable, more lucrative or strategic options available that a job will take away from
wait until your brain is fully developed and you'll actually feel the urge to develop the world around you instead of ratting around looking to maximize personal pleasure
>>
>>108630831
most of the western world is facing financial crisis and insolvency due to birth rates, and people are going to have to make varying degrees of concessions to their quality of life to pay for it. nordic countries are being hit very hard by it, and its going to continue to get much worse.
they were great places at once point. but at the same time, imagine being a doctor who makes 70k usd a year, most of which is taken. they are worked like slaves and they face literally the highest tax rates in the world. these are countries where you can choose to be a degen and not work a day your life. and yet you still enjoy a quality of life barely different from the doctor. that is bullshit and not a functioning society. not to mention their justice system. if you murder somebody, the average sentence in finland is around 11 years. there's a famous serial killer in finland who killed 4 people and was let out multiple times.

it being so obvious that you are a cog in an economic machine, and that your life is worth no more than that of economic livestock, is not an ideal functional society to me anyway. america is headed in the same exact direction and it is very unappealing.

I, as an adult male pushing 40 switching or getting a "career", or atleast slightly more education than I currently have wrote my country's SAT

we will see what we get in score, but if anything, this made me realize and accept being mediocre and coming to terms with it more than anything, from the sole purpose of realizing that I don't care about doing this theoretical shit all day, or maybe that's just the severe sleep deprivation leading to insights (pulled an allnigther)

from constantly struggling and tryharding doing shit that is out of my capabilities and/or actual interests, I can be free and just do menial shit that pays me and stop caring eventually

I care about money, not high education

maybe I can finally start minmaxing my way up the IT hierarchy or not

not adhereing loses you all gibs

>there's no limit to the benefits.
gibs are atrocious and barely anything to live on a month, struggling with everything
doing one mistake with them in contact erases a month instantly and you might lose your place if you don't have saved money which you can pay for (which is also illegal to have savings), you are not allowed to die when they say you should die

>you can literally not work a day in your life.
slave labour comes into the mix sooner or later, what you need is a perma disability instead, but that will also be tested from time to time, not the most experience in that to tell you how bad or good it is

If you can pick out a bug which is easy to understand that it is a bug to the non-tech brain that also has a long history of near-duplicate tickets that were opened, assigned, code checked in, and marked resolved, and closed (without fixing the bug, and ideally the bug still persists in production to this day) is a very convincing anecdote to put in your evidence packet.

Also a few choice chat logs of them giving the run-around passing accountability around like a hot potato and then that the issue never got resolved; i.e. reveal the blame-circle game that they play tied to a specific bug.

You want your presentation to be an overwhelming pilie of evidence the presents a collage of fuckups, insubordination, and lack of quality work from many perspectives all pointing towards and supporting the inevitable conclusion the bastards must be fired.

remove your photo from your resume, you should know that including that is retarded
my resume is in this format:
Skills (literally a list of categorized languages and libraries and frameworks)
Experience
Education
Projects
some tips I'd give would be to put those skills into the bullet point descriptions underneath your experience / education / projects, and see how I put spaces there between the slashes (" / ")? that is (or at least was a few years ago) one good way to force the ATS to understand your profile

Story engine.
I wrote it in Lua 5 years ago, then killed it because Lua fucking sucks. Rewrote it in C++ 4 years ago, then killed it again because there were flaws in the design and it started to become tumorous. Fast forward to last year, I tried to make something similar in Dart, only to realize some thousands of lines of code later that it was just going to circle around to the same story engine concept so that's dead.
I'm writing it again for probably the 5th or 6th time, in Dart again, as the idea has been circling over my head for 7 years. I'm probably the most incompetent dev you'll ever know and it's a wonder how I've held a job down for nearly as long

Not quitting practicing a skill is definitely a skill in itself because i have this tendency to completely abandon something that im not immediately good at after 30 days or seeing results like getting paid or having a job and the consequences is fucking dire.

Why not?

It pays as much as webdev here in my country. Honestly every tech job pays the same from QA to webdev to analyst. 5-7 million IDR for 1-3 year exp. Minimum wage is 5 million idr. Most jobs only pays 1-3 million IDR. If you wonder how much that is, it's $350.

Most companies don't even do QA anymore. They just expect devs to write unit tests to make sure the code at least works, and then they wait for the customers to complain about quality and bugs.

I've been a backend engineer for about 8 years. Lately I've noticed more and more of my coworkers just copy-pasting code from Claude or ChatGPT without really understanding it. PRs are massive walls of generated code that mostly works but has weird edge cases nobody bothered to think through. When I ask questions during review, they just say "the LLM wrote it that way" or shrug. Meanwhile I'm spending my time actually reasoning about architecture, data models, and failure modes. It's getting exhausting because I feel like the quality bar is dropping but management only cares about velocity. For those of you in similar situations - how do you stay motivated? Do you just accept that this is the new normal and lower your own standards? Or do you push back and risk being seen as the slow one? I don't want to become the grumpy senior who complains about everything but I also don't want to ship garbage. Would love to hear how others are navigating this.

>>
>>108632922
DO NOT LOWER YOUR STANDARDS.

so... I've got about twice your experience and reviewing PRs is 30% of my day. Here is the policy that I enforce:
I neither encourage or discourage the use of AI. However, I will always review your code as if it was written by you and only you. Don't ever tell me that you used AI to write it; in other words, no excuses. If you ever do tell me that AI wrote it then I'm rejecting the whole PR I want you to go line by line and make it yours, or even completely rewrite it all over again so that when you resubmit it we can go back to pretending that you wrote every line yourself. If you are stupid enough to tell me again that you used AI then I"m not playing games, I will get you fired for insubordination because I have ordered you not to tell me that you used AI, just so we are clear that you are totally and completely accountable for the quality of your code.
>>

Did you ever actually tell your manager what the downstream cost of that bug would have been? because in my experience engineers assume leadership understands the severity and leadership almost never does.

at my job they're giving mandatory AI trainings to all office level employees on stupid shit like summarizing excel sheets with AI or writing emails, meanwhile the actual production PLM software that people have to use every single day is stuck on some shitty windows XP boomer client from 2002 and the execs refuse to update it because of the licensing fees + migration costs.

Once I got deep into Baby Step 3 I stopped feeling like I was underclass. The money seemingly starts coming in faster too since you aren't paying interest on anything anymore. It's a great feeling and one I wish anyone who is willing to work toward it gets to experience it.

My CTO is one of these types. His new idea this past week was adding a giant AI generated essay to every PR as a replacement for code reviews. I believe he is one more fuck up away from getting fired though. We only have like 12 customers (B2B saas), and 2 are expected to churn because we fucked up their data for like 6 months without realizing it. We are weeks away from missing a huge deadline that he pushed for because he thought we could vibe code it. When we have to go back to the client and ask for an extension and they return by asking for better terms, he will be on super thin ice at best.

Tips on managing ATS and linkedin profile?

>how to handle linkedin when tailoring a cv?
99% of the jobs i apply is via linkedin. Some platforms require linkedin profile to application.
I know that im supposed to tailor my cv for each application using chatgpt. But i apply to 10+ jobs a day. If i send a tailored cv, wont they check info in my profile? I cannot keep 10 versions of my profile.
For example, i send a tailored backend cv then a fullstack cv to another post. My cv has the backend version, will the ATS double check and see that my fullstack cv is fake?

>what to do with multiple skills?
I read that if you have both react and angular knowledge then apply to a react job, ATS will prefer the candidate that knows only react. SO having all your skills in the same cv/profile hurts the ATS.
In my case i know c# and java. Also ive worked as fullstack in the past and know angular. So currently i have 4 profiles: fullstack c/ang, fullstack java/ang, backend java, backend c#. Am i supposed to create 4 linkedin profiles?

Oh well, i thought about having a generic and bland profile like software developer... but then, wont it hurt the ATS? because hr whores will search for a java backend dev and wont find me?

We've been working to automate most test benches for ages now.

The bigger thing is that architecture at scale currently designed by most AI sucks. It's fine for quickly slapping on some features, but it will quickly rot your code base with horrid tech debt that is unacceptable in embedded. That said, if they solve this, we are just as cooked.

Lots of people complain on how they're not getting a job after months/years/hundred applications but how many people actually want to admit they simply lack the skills for the job?

Get an IT related job in the military if you are able bodied.
They'll train you and you'll basically get a guaranteed 6 figure tech job when you get out.
If you're broke and have no connections then it's a pretty good deal. And if you go guard/reserves then you get to take an IQ test and pick your job before you sign any papers

If you're 20, learn a trade. There is no future in tech. The salaries are collapsing. The days of a chill tech job that pays 150k is coming to a screeching halt. Go get established in a trade before more white collar fags get laid off and you have more competition.

I'm a boomer, if I were 10 years younger I would be doing the same thing.

There is no escaping the whip of the jew, as an American. Unless you were born into wealth... you will either figure out how to earn lots of money, OR you will be forced to live amongst violent negroids and methheads. Either way, the jew wins. Anon's advice is good, you leave the military with a security clearance that will keep a roof over your head in a relatively negro-free neighborhood.

I need some advice from those of you who are actually employed in the area.

I want to learn backend development and from what I've gathered Spring Boot is the one that has the most jobs available. However, the only resources I've found are not to my liking because they either lack structure or cost too much.

Is there something else I could learn in its place, like Django with Python or something involving Node? I honestly have no idea on how employable I would be with those languages in the backend.

If there are some resources that you know of, please do share.

I know that the job market is not great at the moment but I'm not desperate, I just want to work in tech sometime in the future.

Lmao, you have no idea *how* over it is. You aren't getting an entry level job, not without having an uncle that is the hiring manager or being a 180IQ MIT grad. Nobody writes code anymore. If my manager caught me writing code by hand, I would have to explain why I'm doing things 'the old way'. The age of AI is here. You don't have to like it, but it's not going away, and no random midwit dev can do anything to stop it.

Well where is all the cool new software if AI is so great? AI doesn't seem to be increasing the amount of good software so as long as you make good new software the old way then it's indistinguishable from the AI generated stuff.

how much money do car mechanics make?
on one hand, they seem to have a lot of work and charge whatever they want, or maybe they just scam their clients
on the other hand, each job seems to take a lot of time, so even if each job makes them good money, they spend a lot of time disassembling and reassembling shit, don't they?

You have to pay for your own tools, so I hope you either have a lot of cash or a healthy credit score so you can sell your soul to Snap-On
>>
>>108640703
10-25k in tool debt
20-30k in trade school debt/certifications

Then you can make 40-70k working as a regular car/truck mechanic.
If you don't want to be the average mechanic then you need a ME/EE degree to work on planes with certifications/trade school/tool debt to make a whopping 60-120k
Boats/Heavy machinery/Semi trucks is roughly the same pay ranges without having to get advanced degrees like aerospace

Honestly you are better off joining the military for retirement than being a mechanic. I would've done it but IT is easier and pays double the average mechanic makes at 150k$ USD.

Forgive my sucidepost lol. Is it potentially possible that I could get a different job but adequately teach myself something like say, hacking for example, and in 10 years, assuming the apocolypse isn't through with us, find a potentially interesting job? Saturated as the market is, could you potentially make yourself stand out enough to do it? Part of me is insane and believes I can do it even though I know nothing because I'm GOING to rape my fate and nothing will stop me, allegedly.

It takes businesses a long time to learn, and the only way they learn is through positive or negative feedback loops. So you just have to let nature take its course. You've just been focused on you, and you don't really have all that much visibility into the other things, and you hope all is well with it. It's an exciting new direction for everyone. If they need any particular help, just let you know and you'll be happy to help in any way possible.

know somebody who will hire you
