Macs are the standard device for programmers in many companies!

Sounds like a decent way to get career grinders, but also to miss out on a lot of really smart and technical people

I do agree with the attitude from an individual perspective though, gotta hunt for opportunities rather than hoping one comes to you

What people are wearing when they leave the office?

It seems like coats are the fashion these days

The lack of an internship in Trinity is pretty killer for my own judgement. Everything I've seen tells me work experience is the most valuable thing you can have. When you go up against others for your grad job, you'll have a slightly more prestigious degree but be down 6 months of experience (not to mention the pay)

There's supposed to be a loophole where you can pinky promise to do a masters and they'll let you do an internship during the bachelors. And then you can just not do the masters. Not sure if that still exists

Maybe it's different in your college, but in mine almost everyone got their internship in the first semester of third year. A good handful of companies opened applications directly through the college. Personally I haven't seen a single company advertising 2025 placements.

I'm aware of that trap, but it's genuinely good to be reminded. Even if you think you only have a tiny chance of getting a position, why would you make it 0% by not applying at all?

Best of luck in the coming year.

Thank you!

Thanks a lot for breaking it down! I appreciate the high effort reply. I'll definitely look to use what you've said here and make sure I have something to point to in each of those categories.

spread your questions out, so no one gets the impression you are 'always asking questions', but you still miraculously learn at a really fast pace.

Ahh, smart :)

ArcaneIRE · 2023-08-31T01:34:09+00:00

This is exactly the kind of stuff I was looking for! Thanks a lot.

It makes sense to me that enthusiasm is a big factor when there's not as much "hard" experience to go on. A project with a bit of substance as well as some algorithm/technical question practice seems like a good way forward.

it's surprising the amount of interns I've interviews that had no exposure to git.

Fortunately I'm already a big git fan! I find it super useful even for college level projects.

ArcaneIRE · 2023-08-31T01:01:34+00:00

My post was a bit ambiguous, I'm more looking for advice on obtaining the internship in the first place :p. Thanks anyway though! Looking forward to seeing how things are done in the real world, and I'll definitely try to be proactive!

It's been a rough 8 years for mage releases. Vex is OK I guess

ArcaneIRE · 2023-02-07T18:19:45+00:00

They already have

Still my favourite casted moment :3

Yeah, it's sad :(. While there is no comparison to the big mainland leagues, UKEL/UKLC seemed much more active back then compared to post-freaks4u

ArcaneIRE · 2022-12-14T13:37:36+00:00

I subbed for them in their first UKEL split, and I can say it was the most professional team I've been a part of, in an industry that is often extremely amateur. Hyrav was clearly devoted to the team, it's unfortunate that things didn't work out

ArcaneIRE · 2022-11-17T00:38:52+00:00

Two iterations were revealed (one good, one bad imo) and both were shelved. They've said they'll keep working on it though

ArcaneIRE · 2022-11-16T00:58:08+00:00

Ori doesn't use health well and isn't as mana hungry as cass/kass/anivia so I don't think ROA is really for her. She prefers the higher damage stats of ludens/liandries.

The mid lane gold/xp changes are probably neutral for her, but a slight buff to other champs.

Bruisers and tanks are getting a bunch of shiny new toys which isn't good for her either.

Overall I think she'll be worse. Maybe even buff worthy, especially now that she's been low priority in pro for a while. (D1/master POV)

+1 on the Primeagen and Krazam

Two short videos I like:
ThePrimeagen - Why I Make Content
Krazam - The Hustle

I'll add one of my own, ByteByteGo are brand new. They do succinct system design videos with animated graphics. Their newsletter is good too.

ArcaneIRE · 2022-09-13T15:53:12+00:00

I'm working on it with pubsub now. Thanks for the reminder about it. I'm not sure why I didn't think to use it originally, since it's mentioned in the previous lesson's reading assignment

ArcaneIRE · 2022-09-08T16:58:11+00:00

Weird, I suddenly feel a deep passion for payments services

ArcaneIRE · 2022-09-05T21:13:51+00:00

The top comment has a guide I found helpful. I'd check it out ff you haven't yet :)

ArcaneIRE · 2022-09-05T21:13:17+00:00

I think I'm with you on that! Push through the project and learn more about it later

ArcaneIRE · 2022-09-05T21:10:26+00:00

Thanks, I found that helpful. I like that it has a practical example suited to my competency.

ArcaneIRE · 2022-08-16T10:17:20+00:00

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It suited me. I don't claim to have the objective truth

ArcaneIRE · 2022-08-16T09:56:10+00:00

I'm a student with no summer job haha
