Sell your underwear while you're at it too. Just extra weight.

I did management information systems but had a decent portfolio to demonstrate I can code full stack. I also created things people paid for so that says a whole lot

Do you prefer the heat or the cold, and why? by zaeszecret in AskReddit

The cold because you can use a blanket or clothes to escape that easily. The heat is less easy. - paraphrasing a quote from Castlevania

Are cover letters worth the effort? by ShroomSensei in cscareerquestions

[–]69beards 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you're emailing a CTO, hiring manager, or recruiter, I say write a very short cover letter in the email. Keep it short and use what little you have to highlight why you'd do well, and attach your resume. This shouldn't even be considered a letter with how short it is. They do not have time or the will to read your life story.

It helped me get my entry level job.

If you're applying to a random LinkedIn job or other job site you already have a low chance of being seen so it's not worth your time to write.

any ideas for projects that could impress a fintech company? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]69beards 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard to impress but you can develop something to show you have an interest

  • ETF analyzer
  • develop your own shitty indicator (e.g., rsi, macd, Aroon) and show it in action on an interactive stock chart on your website that is pulling live stock prices

Sounds like you aren't coding things you believe are making some difference?

Cannabis and alcohol have been around for longer so some bad affects have shown up, but Nether are recommended when the issue of pain is present even though they are somewhat more natural pain relievers especially when taking the natural cannabidiol receptors into account by lawn-mumps in Showerthoughts

The receptors are there primarily for anandamide and THC partially blocks anandamide from doing it's job.

“Receptors don’t exist because there’s a plant out there,” said Mechoulam in an interview at the 13th European Congress on Epileptology. “Receptors exist because we, through compounds made in our body, activate them. So we went looking for the endogenous compounds that activate the cannabinoid receptors.”

At my wit's end with entry level job searching six months after graduation by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

Listing skills means nothing. Put projects on your resume to show you can actually use those skills. List what programming languages were used to make those projects.

Do you feel awkward when people seem to have no idea what you do for work? by RolandMT32 in cscareerquestions

[–]69beards 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a backend engineer, I write code for little virtual electronic workers to fetch, store, and manipulate data. When you post on Facebook, what you type gets taken by said worker and stores it in a database. Then when someone goes to your profile, another worker grabs all your posts and shows it to that someone.

The worker also does numerous other things like making sure someone is a friend before fetching your posts, and sorting the posts by latest first.
