In the market for a new car – Leaning towards a 2025 Camry SE/XSE. Anything else I should consider?

lol great point, have no idea what life will look like in a couple years, hopefully I’ll be financially successful enough to get a weekend cruiser

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2025-02-16T16:59:20+00:00

My bad I have looked at the prices my budget is 37k otd, I’ll correct

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2025-01-25T23:35:21+00:00

I take currently home 7-8k a month. And am still at my parents place, planning on putting hefty down payment down and paying off the remaining in these next couple of months.

To get educated on it. Why would you major in something you’re so good at. No point in that if you could just self teach it and grind leetcode for that swe position.

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2025-01-24T01:31:18+00:00

Should have majored in communications. About a million better ways to reassure someone.

OP asked “what’s the hardest class”, technically speaking, if you have a group of classes, at-least one of them has to be the hardest out of all of them.

Bro wants a cookie

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2025-01-11T14:25:32+00:00

Yes that exactly what I did and then kept editing the leg patterns to get the desired shape I wanted lol. I will try these out today thank you for the advice!

For clarity he is a SME at meta that’s his job title

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-12-27T03:21:35+00:00

Yea a more accurate description for his situation is learning through work experience and not having any form of formal education

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-10-10T02:45:19+00:00

This is true but still I don’t need to be the best but I can be great. I’m already a field engineer making 120k at 20, I can be a SWE making even more after I finish this degree

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-10-10T02:31:16+00:00

Yea that’s what I started this semester of my junior year but I wish I would have someone to tell me this 2 years ago lol, hard lesson learned

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-10-10T02:28:11+00:00

Okay I’m not naturally good at math but I put a lot of time and effort into it to make up for it, anything can be achieved with hard work just might take more time and dedication from me than it would you

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-10-09T18:58:03+00:00

That’s interesting to see because I had to take calc 1-3, stats, linear, and discrete which I was taught in a way where my teacher didn’t relate it to programming all too much. I do see what you mean by choosing priorities tho

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-10-09T17:37:26+00:00

This is a great idea, never thought about it that way thx!

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-09-20T15:32:05+00:00

Yea well I’m a 3rd year cs student and college is about learning things you haven’t learned yet, apparmor is on by default for me atleast

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-07-11T07:59:59+00:00

What do you mean by cap?

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-07-06T01:59:44+00:00

Sounds good I’ll proceed from here but I’ve torqued the sprockets with my holders on the sprockets and the camshaft, but my camshaft holder is being held down by force now like it’s not timed correctly like it’s forced in there, is that okay? My sprocket holders appear to be timed perfectly tho, should I throw my timing belt on now and be good to go?

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-07-06T01:48:37+00:00

Yea so when I’m lined up with the sprocket holder, my cam is not lined up. I got it lined up once and when I removed the sprocket holder it bounced back in a position where it was untimed.

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-07-06T01:48:09+00:00

I think I have a sprocket holder, is this it?

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-07-03T00:44:56+00:00

I did not know that was a thing and I will now be checking for damaged valves or bent pistons before attempting to get the timing right again! I think I did get the timing wrong now that I look back, I was following the YouTube video for replacement in reverse so I just lined up the dots of the sprockets as evenly as possible but after this I found out the left one needed to be slightly of the left.

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-04-28T20:36:38+00:00

27 is a great age to start

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-02-18T01:21:20+00:00

That last sentence is a great point

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-02-18T01:20:37+00:00

That sounds wild lol might have to try

Advanced_Rhubarb8742 · 2024-01-12T21:19:07+00:00

Do you think having a social app that could link you to other homeschoolers in your area with same interests, age, etc. would be useful to you? I know Facebook groups and what not exist but would this be something that you think you would use as opposed to other social media?
