>>109396379the posts are just mundane enough that I'll believe they're all genuine or they really happened at some point, middle management are not people.

Done with my first day on the job. Got a good feeling about this one.

>>109396360Assuming something is a troll is just a form of cope via denial.
>>109397903Are you self eliminating or actually applying and finding out if it's a real issue?
>>109397937Finding out it's a real issue as in 'we feel your certifications and 10 years of experience are helpful but without a degree we cannot process your application'I usually get that around 8/10 times

>>109397984Are you worried you're going to lose your comfy job?
>>109397962brits make less than the poorest state in the US. They're poor by comparison.
>>109398023Naw just like having the ability to quit randomly>>109398102>>109397962Not really - I was offered a job in London for £65k doing sysadmin and several people I know make above 100k thereAt lower end, yes, it's basically above minimum at best
>>109398117Yeah. In London. By GDP, brits are poor. Not everyone lives in the city.

>>109397077Southern italy aka below Rome is straight ghetto compared to the worse parts of the US. You can always go back anon, but i would recommend north of Rome. Spain sucks and is a empty shithole with nothing to do. Spain and Portugal basically live like eastern europeans.
>>109397962Where items being a 25p difference can make and break a family i can assume its worse out there than most places. Economic activity with small businesses which traditionally used to be England's middle class has stopped entirely. You need to either gtfo from the country or go big with some massive business idea with lots of outsourcing. Also good luck trying to be a bigger business that relies on natural resources you are not going to get approved for that in the UK.

>>109397965Depends upon the organization. My helpdesk deals with Active Directory, Account Management, & basic troubleshooting where possible. Everything else is made into a ticket and sent back. Hence why most are getting 60k a year due to that being the floor for IT jobs. Most never worked at a PC repair place or Geeksquad equivalent so this is their first job in the industry. Main purpose is to weed out the retards, anti-social shut ins and lazy fucks.
>>109398608Everything I've seen with LLMs seems to go the other way: large corporations can't adapt and it's smaller companies that become more effective.
>>109397077>Going to Costco instead of AldiNever do this.
>>109399528You people pay *way* too much for prostitutes.
>>109399852It's basically what happened with easy to obtain hardware for CNC machines. Cheaper software, hardware and a glut of ME/EE/CE allowed for distributed manufacturing that traditionally required hundreds if not thousands of cooped up labor in large companies to complete. What larger corps should be doing is doubling down on the productivity gains and hire more to corner more of the market/fix what they have that makes them money. However naively they decided to cut manpower to scoop up a bunch of money for themselves.
>>109399852I think their idea is that once the dust settles, almost all software engineering will be "solvable" by throwing compute and data at it. Larger companies will easily outcompete smaller ones at that, not in every niche or application, but certainly in most "standard" ones around today.
>being paid for doing literally, absolutely nothing, from the comfort of my own home for several months straight at full pay>being lead by the nose about starting in a new role>getting ghosted and delayed repeatedly when asking what i should do to get startedfuck it, at this point i'm just using company time to look for another job, i'm done asking.call me retarded, but i don't feel great for my future prospects if i just sit on my ass all day.
>>109399940Gotta at least read something or learn something new. It doesn't really matter but you can put anything on your resume so long as you can prove it.
>>109399937That doesn't seem like where it's headed to me. Scaling these models up doesn't make them better at software maintenance which was always the hard part.
I've reached the point where I genuinely hope I get fired lmaoContext: you can't get fired within one day without a fat severance payment in my country, otherwise they have to wait several months
Context: you can't get fired within one day without a fat severance payment in my country, otherwise they have to wait several months
I kind of accidentally fell into a PO role on the customer side since I'm the only programmer over here. Any advice how to wrangle *their* PO and PMs?
>>109399960NTA but I could never bring myself to do this no matter how much I was neglected in my corporate roles. I always felt obligated to be present.
>>109399993Its really situation dependent. I work at a do nothing job that isn't remote so i have to compensate with my lack of work for something. Even reading random books is better than just rotting. If your current role is engaging and teaching you alot then the most i can recommend is spreading your wings abit with more responsibilities so you can tack it on your resume. I did that to great success even if it meant me being whooped at the end of the day.
>>109400036Went from having an extremely chill senior dev job with basically zero actual responsibility to being a team lead/developer Frankenstein... all for only a 10% salary bump and a slightly fancier title HOW DO I GO BACK BROS SAVE ME AAAAAA
>>109400058>but muh leadership experience and CVFUCK OFF ITS NOT LOSING YOUR HAIR AND YOUR WILL TO LIVE IN YOUR 20s FOR "EXPERIENCE"
>>10940005810% wasn't worth it. I need at least 30-50k to move from my current do nothing position. I hear my coworkers wanting to move for 10k more but i seems like a huge gamble in this market. It's not 2010-22 anymore. Job security is a meme but it pays long term if you really learn everything that you can learn from your current role. These people moving are currently trash at this role so fuck em.
>>109400036Whenever I get mad I work on my game engine. It has a mode where it just writes entity fields to the terminal one step at a time. It's all C just like the project I'm working on. IT doesn't have any kind of shell on my machine so I don't think anyone can tell.
>>109399979That's interesting, can you be more specific? I don't have any professional experience with using LLMs. Scaling them up has made them way better at writing software at least, and from what people on the internet would have you believe, at debugging it too.I'm not disagreeing that maintainence is more difficult and expensive than people realize, but are the models really bad at that? And does that expense outweigh the economy of being able to expand scope and add features so quickly and easily?
>>109400077>Scaling them up has made them way better at writing software at leastEeehhh. Not really. They can handle more context but they still write like a highschooler. Their problem decomposition is really bad and they accumulate technical debt *very* fast.
>>109400090They can, but you can just throw a shitton of resources until it works. Basically have reviewer agents checking the he progress independently against conventions, and vice versa.It costs a shitton money, way more than handholding by devs, but it's not impossible.
>>109399993It’s called “being white or east asian”
>>109400090Oh I thought all the hotness now was having one model split up the problem at higher levels and farm out the pieces to other individual models working in a more limited scope; I was assuming that helped solve what you were talking about. I should probably play around with having them write software myself if I want to talk about it. Thanks for responding.
On my initial talk with the hiring manager who is a senior level software engineer, I asked them what style/format their technical interview consists of. The hiring manager told me the technical screening will be a question to see “how you work with repository, it won’t be a leetcode question”.I was moved onto the final round and just had my 6 hour onsite with back to back interviews. Did pretty well on the systems design interview and then the technical interview comes. Before the interview, I am reviewing all the possible Git commands and any github things I should know. The technical interview starts and it’s a leetcode medium level question simply hosted on a github repository. That is all the repository was used for, to host the question. I asked the interviewer who is a different software engineer if they want me to do anything with the repository and they told me nope, just do the question on an IDE of your choice. I was in the habit of doing 1-2 leetcode questions a day prior to this interview and stopped a week out to focus for this interview. When I realized what happened, it threw me off and also not having practiced for the last week with leetcode style questions, I basically spent the first 5 minutes just trying to adjust and focus on the question and before you know it, time is up. This was my most interesting technical interview.

>>109400279Just be sure to put it on your resume it really doesn't matter. Some companies are looking for total experience gained over specific. Then others are looking for specifics so you gotta learn before you apply to do that job anyways.

>>109397962UK salaries are shockingly bad and the houses are really expensive because rich people just buy up houses and let them out instead of working. Oh and we let foreigner investors buy property here as well for some reason. The whole economy just runs off exploiting the working class and paying them peanuts.
