There are so many fucking AI generated posts on Reddit, but not nearly as many on 4chan
do I accept my promo to technical team leader?
Reddit was always low effort hiveminded parrotposting but now it’s just actual bots. Almost makes you miss the dogmatic zeal of yore. At least it was literally organic lol, oxymoron though that may be.

How long should I stay at my first job before applying to better roles?
8:30 pm, got nothing better to do, might as well get started on tomorrow's ticket
>>110174186neither is really difficult; commission it out of me
>>1101742281 year or more, IMO. but do NOT resign before getting another offer.>>110174231find something else to do then. learn something, start a personal project, whatever.
>>110174228always be considering a move. ALWAYS.is your first job:paying enough?co-workers good?HR respectful? (Huehuehue)other perks giving reason(s) to stay?opportunity for growth in a reasonable time?then stay longer if they'll have you.

>>110174228as long as you're learning and aren't in a completely awful situation, 3 years. if you haven't finagled a promotion by that point then it's probably time to move on. with less than 3 years i would not expect you to find many openings for better roles, just sideways moves.

Microsoftie here. My group didn't get the buyout offers. Everyone is dooming on blind that they are just going to fire 60k if 60k don't take the buyout, but the buyout is a really shitty offer, way worse than a severance would be UNLESS you have been at the company for a long time. I think this is just a way to target old people without violating any laws, and they only expect 5k people to take it

Crazy how we take zero steps to curtail outsourcing. It's also insane how modern politicians like to put on a show of "muh manufacturing we need to bring it back" while repeating the exact same drain of our nation's wealth by letting the software industry freely flow out to India.Anyway, what tech domains aren't being massively outsourced? I'm in fintech right now and we've currently reached 99% jeet saturation.
>>110173867how much AI do you use in a data center role?
you guys should really just learn swift and apply, like we're actively hiring for tons of different roles and every manager I talk to is hiring but complaining they can't find candidates that pass their bar, like it's really not that hard you just need to want it. and its so worth it
>>110174833what show is this?
>>110177860>hiring but complaining they can't find candidatesYeah that's the prerequisite to getting an H1B indentured slave
>>110177807they're making a big stink (no pun intended) about h1bs now because there's an election coming up, but all the big tech companies have been building indian headquarters for years and cracking down on visa abuse just means those companies will ship those jobs overseas.i'm always surprised this stuff isn't treated like a matter of national security. everyone knows the three letter agencies have backdoor access to all these tech giants' data, but those tech companies' products have been getting worse and worse to the point that people are seeking alternatives. chinkshit always gets banned, but if russian or european alternatives start looking better, suddenly there's a problem. not that it's a good thing the government knows everything you're doing on google/facebook/windows, but i'm just surprised they haven't realized enshittification means losing their grip on something so important.
>>110177955>the president is a foreign pawn of one country and a close buddy of another, contrary to national interests>but the state should start giving a shit about billionaires making quick buck on foreign slaves, the very same billionaires that supported the current administration en masseI am more surprised that you still believe in a national security being anywhere on the priorities list, you live in a mega-corporation larping as a country

What the fuck do """project managers""" in tech even do? In my experience the engineers are the ones who have to figure out requirements and hold meetings to plan out any given project, while the PM's boss is the one signing off on any actual decisions. It doesn't even seem like you need to know any software engineering at all to be a PM. Like I used to work in construction industry and PMs there actually had to do things and were required to have extensive industry knowledge on how standards work and how shit is built.
i assume there aren’t too many ai shills here so i must ask, are you guys scared of ai? at all? i wanted to pick up python and pivot into data analysis but i keep running into reddit threads that insist its a dead career and im wasting my time
>>110178109No, I'm scared of retards using ai in innapropriate ways.
>>110178007All mine does is hound you to close stories and provide updates no one will register (including herself). I guess theoretically they maintain a bird's eye view of the work and make sure there aren't conflicts in scheduling.
>>110178109Not in the same way as low IQ retards. I am afraid of actually not being able to use it better than my peers. Fuck anyone that dumber than me that thinks it will replace them when it really wont.
>>110178109it's not AI you have to be afraid of, it's the retards pushing for AI
>>110178254>>110178151so all the stuff about it decompiling games and doing things in ten seconds that it took senior developers ten years to build up to doesn’t bother you at all? swear i’m not a shill i’m just wondering how people actually feeling about it
>>110178295Think less of replacement and more of moving the skill ladder up for everyone anon.
>>110178295No, because it still doesn't (can't) understand what it's doing.
>>110177928you need to get over the self victimization and crying about indians. yeah its happening and it makes getting a job harder, but peaceful difficulty to easy difficulty is still a joke. You need to want it and actually give a shit. Every single field is starved for competent men that want to make something of themselves and have a passion to do so. and for some more context, most of my coworker sphere isnt even indian. out of ~40 people around 65% of them are white, another 25% some form of asian (chinese, vietnamese, one korean dude) and theres 2 indians.
>>110178312where's his bulge?
>>110178396>stop crying about Indians>I don't work with Indians and they haven't invaded my workspace yet btw

>>110178868Is there a list of known ghost job spammers? H1B farms like Cognizant are obviously just looking for jeets who got fired and are desperate to keep their visas, but companies like Veeva aren't obvious unless you've been looking at postings for a while and notice they keep reposting the same shit.
>>110179048I've wanted to do that as long as it's somewhere where niggers can't access

>>110179121
>>110179155heh
>team just got cut in half againstarted out a few years ago as over 20 people. now I think there are four or five of us left.
>>110178396I used to think this way until I had two jobs back to back ruined by jeets. First was fully jeetified company and entirely my fault - I had no idea when I took the job offer and wasn't smart enough to look for clues, and I'm pretty sure they only hired me because otherwise the visa approval office would've wondered why there were no white people working there. Then it was an ordinary company that slowly got jeetified over the 5 years I was there. They ruin everything and with the market the way it is things are only getting worse. They keep wages down across the board, which in turn leads to more jeets getting hired, and as soon as they become part of the hiring process at any company it's game over. I used to be naive like you but sooner or later everyone comes around.
>>110179249you're interviewing now, right? you're not waiting to see who the last man standing is?
>>110179190I sorta miss going clubbing sometimes, until zoomers with their smartphone cameras recording everything and not dancing, as well as entitled bitches looking to score free drinks ruined everything.
>>110179190very wise postwhere can I subscribe to your blog?
>>110179281I don't really need to, it's cheaper for them to fire the other people. My bigboss will give me plenty of advanced notice if I'm getting the boot, and I have a couple of decent companies that I can basically walk into if I need a job. One of them actually asked me if I wanted to work for them a couple of weeks ago, but I don't feel like driving to an office or dealing with getting a haircut and shit.
>>110179268Same. Used to shrug the jeet complaints. Then had 3 straight years of job loss/hopping ruined by jeet managers, jeet induced layoffs, jeet takeovers. I'm not taking it sitting down anymore they can all go the fuck back. I have a right to work with Americans at an American company as they have a right to India.
it's so over bros
>>110177807Thirdie here, get fucked lol. US companies want to have as few US employees as possible. But I guess you can work in blue collar now that Trump deported the mexicans LOL
>IT denied installing some open source software for some bullshit about they didn't have time to verify it>built it using the source code on my machine anyway asking claude to do it.it's over for IT-cels
>>110171752welp...today went my last chance at a job after 1.5 years of unemployment. it was a perfect role, fully remote, everything i needed and I got fucked over by my ex boss that I used as a reference.....which explains why a lot of other offers fell through as well but i didnt know it until nowim going into construction
>>110179886don't put your boss down as a referrence. put down the name and phone number of the HR nancy instead; she will confirm the dates that you worked there and that's it.
>>110180036cant do that 99% of the time. they ask specifically for a boss or close coworker and they have to give feedback instead of just confirming
How do you solve the mental illness of not applying due to rejection fears?
>>110178988Lawyers arguably have some of the strongest protections against their jobs being AI sloppified. First, lawyers where smart and created licensing requirements (I.e. the bar) to practice law, keeping out much (foreign) competition.Second, 30-50% of politicians are lawyers. They will simply change the laws/rules to protect their lawyer jobs.
i feel like a skinwalker pretending to be a normgroid around my coworkers
>>110180163More like a skincrawler cuz you making my skin crawl.
>>110180172more like skindowntowner, because you're making my way downtown, walking fast, faces pass and im homebound
>>110179190>Just assume 9 out of 10 job listings are this. If the company looks small and oblivious it's probably a real listing. It's the same logic you'd use at a night club where you hunt for the girl who's dressed kind of awkwardly and hasn't yet accumulated a thousand cock stare.Why was this deleted? Are the jeetannies in on it? Is this why I never see job openings for jannies?
>>110180146turn around, notice the fear of not having enough money to pay for house and food, and apply anyway
>>110178109I'm not scared of automation decreasing the demand for SWE and historically the exact opposite has happened. What I am worried about is automation potentially making my job much less fun and interesting, turning it from something I enjoy into something I hate but still do for money. So far LLMs made development more fun for me, but it's because I'm in a company and a sector where we are given time to read/write the code and where understanding what the clanked shat out is expected.
>>110179249CEO announced layoffs over AI recently. My team quadrupled in size this year with contractors.
>>110178007>What the fuck do """project managers""" in tech even do? In my experience the engineers are the ones who have to figure out requirements and hold meetings to plan out any given project, while the PM's boss is the one signing off on any actual decisions. It doesn't even seem like you need to know any software engineering at all to be a PM. >>Like I used to work in construction industry and PMs there actually had to do things and were required to have extensive industry knowledge on how standards work and how shit is built.Obviously not everyone is doing the same thing. Size of the project and scope (responsibilities and heirarchy in planning) play a big role too as far as what you're going to see a PM doing. If they're tasked to you directly to manage a project that you're working on, and they own it, then they should be doing just about everything over than the technical details. If they're adjacent, or part of a higher level part of the project, they may not be doing anything for your group in particular, and just checking in to see status/progress. The two biggest misses I see with PMs is they either don't understand what their job is, or the company doesn't understand what their job is. >>110180483yeah, it's a cycle. we cut too deep a couple of years ago, hired some 'temps' to take up the slack. all good now, nothing to do until Q1. See ya next year.

>>110180146job rejections are incredibly impersonal. unironically try dating, experience how painful dating rejections are, and then realize how little job rejections actually hurt in comparison.
>>110180850Job rejections are worse because a livelihood actually matters in life. Women are easy. Especially if you aren’t a sperg/make good money.
>>110174288What else can you do? I'm a vegetable after getting home from work (yes I commute), my city sucks and my apartment sucks. And there's so little free time after work.
>>110178109Terrified. The generative AI agent can create way better code than anyone at my company in way less time, solve abstruse problems that would require days of reading through mountains of codebase to even get an inkling of the solution, it's reduced my job to being a prompt monkey and barely writing code except in specialized scenarios. My biggest problem are exceeding the API budget because it means blowing my cover since I can't continue to work on the code the agent was working on.
Sadnigger here, I wish the US would hire me so I can take the whities' jobs, but apparently only jeets are allowed, bc afaik it's literally Impossible for me to get an H1B
>>110178109Scared of AI itself? No.Scared of how companies are yolo'ing money on AI? Absolutely.According to their S-1 Anthropic was out here talking to wall street about Roko's Basilisk unironically. I've never seen executives as deranged as they are now.

>>110178109>i wanted to pick up python and pivot into data analysisI have a friend with a data analysis job and he says he just prompts claude, but also seems to get a lot of enjoyment out of ths job. Any job where python is used is a job where you will most likely vibe code, because they kind of fill the same niche, but not all prompting jobs require no thinking, at least for now

what is vibe coding anyway, is it relying on the llm for syntax? like giving it pseudo code then it shits out the syntax and you just check it, see if there's anything you could do better (using data structure a over b) and then it's wham bam over?

>>110180057either you do not live in USA or you are grossly uninformed. Many companies have it as specific policy that former managers may not give references. See previous post>fucked over by my ex bossthen don't put down ex-boss. put down HR nancy, if new company asks and says they want your manager, say sorry that's against old company's policy.if ex-boss is going out of his way to fuck you, you can also hire a background-checking company who will call ex-boss and document ex-boss's fuckery, and you can sue ex-boss to keep his mouth shut.

are companies that block AI fighting a lost fight? everyone's finding workarounds
>>110184388They just cannot afford the tokens and QA required to fix the issues AI causes. But then again who the fuck funds QA?
What dumb shit are we buying?
our team gets flooded with CVE reports. we can't keep up anymore. these are actual somethingburgers - not your typical jeet PRs "for beautiful looks". I guess we will need to come up with some new process, because everything is moving too fast now.

>>110186446you're probably an asshole or stink or weird af (or a combination of these). this may also be political. tankie feminist femoids at my gf's previous company had their private chatroom where they could signal how triggered they get to each other.
Using claude used to be very uncomfy, but now I'm starting to see the light. Getting it to do all the work while I just kind of chill and do my own thing at home is incredible.
I am completely insane. My manager has no idea that he has hired a completely insane person.
>>110186446Meh it is what it is.

>>110186967at least in america we get paid an amount that makes a difference. europeans work 40 hrs a week just to end up with identical possessions to a guy on welfare that lives in an identical unit to him across the hallway in his condo. that isnt living.
forgot to mute my mic and just loudly burped right into the mic while my manager was talking in our 1 on 1
>>110187081Not him but not really. Besides, I get 10 weeks of yearly paid leave. Now that is living. Since winter is coming, currently planning my next 2 weeks of skiing.

>>110189936what type of position was this for and where?
>>110189936there are plenty of reasons a company might reject you that have absolutely nothing to do with you. could be they weren't actually hiring and just wanted to waste people's time to make it look like they're hiring, or could be the job went to an internal transfer (who'll almost always get the job over you, no matter how overqualified you are)

Got a 450/600 on the codesignal OA for CapitalOne. Couldn't finish the 3rd problem and didn't even start the 4th one. I looked it up afterwards and apparently I was supposed to use a BFS algorithm. I don't understand why I'm supposed to know how to do shit like this as a front end dev with 10 yoe.https://www.fastprep.io/problems/tiktok-orchard-rot-spread
>>110190317I got a 600/600 on their Codesignal years ago and then never got a follow-up. Companies that send out automated code tests before taking a look at your resume and then ghost you should be destroyed.
>>110190337I don't think they send it to every applicant because I've applied a few times to CapitalOne and this is the first time I've even gotten an OA.
getting REALLY fucking tired of having to always go to vegetarian restaurants with coworkers and half of everything not selling beef in a 50 mile radius
>>110190356Why would you voluntarily choose to interact with jeets more than the bare minimum required for your job?
>>110190366they're not even indians. theyre liberals that are legitimately vegetarian or only eat fish or whatever
>>110190383Just make some sandwitches at home, eat them and grab just a coffee while they eat zee bugz
>>110190317that is rotten oranges on leetcodeit was posted here a few days agodummy

Sorry but I am not participating in the 10 rounds + homework interview humiliation ritual.
>>110190500>>110190505>>>/g/utwg
>>110190086Do anything to make them scream really loud, it's music to my ears.
>>110189677depends on the role, from what I've seen most of the swe roles on consumer applications want 3-5+ yoe, if you're in that range then you'll have access to 80% of jobs available. QA / devops have looser requirements (and less interviews) so they're willing to accept people that only have 1-2 yoe or some good internships and interview really well. like half the people I've met got their start interning and then applied again after graduating and got into different teams.For the more technical / lower level roles (core operating system / libraries / drivers, important internal tools, b2b / developer facing stuff) they want 10+ yoe.Idk how it works for hardware engineering.As always it helps if you know someone inside :)
>>110191288oh and its not specific to swift, as long as you have experience with any OOP language you'll be fine, but the interviews have to be in either C / objc / swift
>>110191510>Long nails, tacky jewelry, duck lipsBitch just get a communications degree and date some guy in business or law while your in school.
why is this general so dead when the euromutts are asleep
>>110191510She's waiting to get impregnated
>>110191590Us americans are le dead /UTWG/
>>110186762idk but here's a watermarked version
>>110186762That email was sent to all 220k employees, hardly a "leak". Everyone in those orgs was offered this. I'm part of the partial, and my org wasn't picked, so no offer for us. In the earnings call today Amy Hood said she expects very few people to take it. I still think this is just to get rid of people quicker who were lazy and afraid of being fired, and old people who don't want to use AI. They want to decrease people sitting around doing nothing by giving them incentive to remove themselves. They aren't firing 60k people, they aren't firing those teams. For instance, they offered it to every single person in Azure Storage. If every single person in azure storage quit, azure would be fucked
>>110191694>If every single person in azure storage quit, azure would be fuckedthey're keeping the marketing people anon, you'll be fine
does microsoft literally just hire anybody with a pulse? 90% of the tiktok foids I see work there
>>110181514What about the general IT guys in each location? How fucked are they?

>>110191781once they get an idea of the numbers and who's leaving, they'll assign new leadership and reorg a couple times next year
>>110191850So probably another 30k more being seppuku'd
>>110191852Ideally they want to scrap anything that's a loss leader, or can't be written off. Big companies always over react and then are slow to readjust, so expect the next couple years of MSFT production value to plummet. All the stuff in the left on that slide is going away, and won't be part of the business in 3-5 years. They've already got a list of all of the realestate that shit currently costs them. If you're part of CIO/GRE it's pretty easy to get an idea of what's coming down the pike based on lease renewals.
Got promoted to principal agentic architect after showcasing how I used 20+ agents to rebuild and modernize a bunch of our back end software and infrastructure, while meeting all of our requirements and design specs.The memes are real.
>>110191847Woah what a milquetoast response that is obvious what HR told him to say!!!!!!!!!>t. attended that meeting todayAlso lmao at calling it a leak, it's an AMA open to 70k people and he started it by saying he knows people will leak so he can only give HR approved answers
>>110191870your competition is literal dinosaurs that can't manage multiple monitors, much less spreadsheetsknow the value (money and liability) or your actions...
>>110191882>or your actionsof
>>110191860Sounds like they learned from the military where they do drastic cuts to only over correct later. Besides if the economommy is as bad as everyone says it is we can see them ramp up in 3 years when it begins to recover or they have some other product worth selling like we did with Azure.
>>110191860>all the stuff in the left is going awayretard, did you even read the stuff?
>>110191932All that stuff is going away in case you misunderstood me. No more money is being spent on it.
>>110191951Xbone is fucked i think they fired that indian chick who was going to outsource gaming to india.
>>110191951yeah I'm sure they are going to fire the CTO, the entire finance department, the entire HR department, all of copilot, all the MBAs in company strategy, all of windows. It's just going to by Satya vibe coding all that on a linux machine
>>110191966NTAI wonder if the back burner project to translate everything over to ARM/RISC will ever happen due to these cuts. They are doing it for the server side of the house but as it currently stands the US government only cares about compatibility.
>>110191966what part of full org is in the crosshairs of no longer needed is confusing you? elon, google, ibm, etc. have either already done the same, or are in the same transition
>>110191989what part of you are wrong is confusing you? saying it over and over doesn't make you right in your retarded opinion of the bean counters deciding that all the bean counters are no longer required
>MS getting fuckedWill they ever fix the mountain of issues companies report to them for MS office and Windows 11? I swear it just gets worse with every update.
>>110192046Well they recently stated they wanted to focus on core Windows functionality like bringing back the movable taskbar, but it's hard to believe it's not just a virtue signaling before they return to short-sighted dartboard bullshit like AI features rather than long-term stability, especially with everything falling on the wayside compared to the cloud side of the business. The huge amount of sociopathic middle management, and the foreign labor that is only looking for a USD paycheck and visa, does not help.t. worked in Microsoft QA
>>110192004I'm not wrong, I'm telling you what is happening. Current laws have relaxed for M&A over the last couple of years that it's primetime to spin off everything that's not a core tennant of the business. Let some bank or VC firm buy it as a package and rename it. They have insurance, and they'll just roll it into their other products anyway, like your 401k.
>>110192095Thanks anon i didn't have my hopes up at all to begin with i just keep submitting bug reports to essentially street shitters. Teams has gotten alot of flak from my IT department we coped by moving back to cisco which is equally as bad imo.
>>110192109Everyone complains about teams but I don't get why honestly, it just werks for me.
>>110192115Lucky anon i truly feel jealous of your situation.
>>110192095Never worked QA how bad is it anon?
>>11019211510% of the time I join a Teams call I have no audio. I have to wait for someone to speak, notice it's silent, drop and rejoin, and hope I'm not unlucky a second time in a row. They have the telemetrics, issues like these should appear on a health report without needing any bug report. There is no reason essential functionality even transiently should be that broken or even make it to a wide release. And yet.In another case I had a daily recurring meeting that I declined. I muted the group chat. I left the group chat entirely. It no longer showed in my calendar. For months, every single fucking day, I continued to receive notifications that their meeting call had started.>>110192159Oh how naive I was.
>>110192169At this point we need a linux competitor to make some useful products Redhat has the money but with IBM at the helm it might never happen.
>>110192115>>110192119yeah, they've been improving it in the last year or so.multi-account was a godsend for me.however the search functionality is the worst i've ever seen.the online version of 365 is unfettered dogshit.

End of year review. Manager admits i should've taken his place instead of him. Still doesn't matter i like technical shit over manager shit.
>>110192095>bringing back the movable taskbarI thought they had this but it was a premium feature.
I'm positively erect every time someone messages me with fuck all detail beyond>I have an issueand I have to juggle focusing on one of the two dozen super duper ultra critical blocker priority issues I have dumped on me and running out of ways of professionally asking someone to open a fucking support ticket with even the bare minimum amount of useable data that the sad fuck(probably me) who will be working on said ticket can use to even begin resolving that issue instead of divining details from "customer reports they did thing and memory went kaboom and I know dick all about what the customer's flow is or what the code is or what my name is" because they expect me to snap my fingers and fix it and do it now because I have nothing else going on.
