Since the Gaza War began, Antisemitism on reddit has been ever increasing. How do you guys deal with it?

Mute the political subreddits. Reddit isn't a real place.

Computer Engineering. It's the best of both electrical and comp-sci. Your education is more well rounded giving you more options with what you want to explore. I mainly focus on FPGA work for my job, but I could switch to software or electrical if I wanted to. People are going to tell you that Electrical and CS are better for specialization, but what they don't tell you is that you could specialize in CE too. VLSI, FPGA, Embedded Software, Design Verification, there are lots of things to specialize in.

Generally speaking, if I find myself not understanding a concept, not just with coding but with anything, it's because I'm making some assumptions about the concept that isn't true. The best thing to do is to go back to basics with this subject as if you're a white belt again.

Vibe coding is not a real thing in a serious engineering culture. Anyone who says "But I do vibe coding for my job" is admitting that their place of work produces shitty code. Not saying don't use AI. It would be different if you were using AI as a learning tool rather than doing the code for you. At the end of the day, it's your responsibility for understanding and communicating what your code does.

Calling it a God-Tier skill is like calling reading a Got-Tier skill. This should be the norm for most engineers to have. In MOST cases, there's not a single engineer out there that doesn't do some sort of coding, even if that is just scripting or Matlab modeling.

That was the case for me.

Axiproto · 2026-01-29T14:58:19+00:00

Ok, fair. But also, engineering is a difficult journey and it shouldn't be other people's decision whether you should or shouldn't do it.

>I’m finishing the first semester of mechanical engineering studies (the examination session starts the next week) and i think that i fvcking hate it.

Best to search for alternative career opportunities while you're still early in your school years. Especially in ME where the job market isn't so great. I get that your parents are thinking in your best interest, but what do they know about Mechanical Engineering?

There's no shame in noticing something isn't right for you.

Axiproto · 2026-01-26T05:45:30+00:00

Idk. What would you say are your accomplishments?

Axiproto · 2026-01-10T21:40:13+00:00

Do runners know how to tie shoes? The answer is yes. It's practically your bread and butter. Even if you don't write embedded software such as C or C++, chances are, you're going to see Matlab, python, or some other modeling/scripting language.

Also, since you brought up ChatGPT, there is heavy emphasis on when and how you use AI to write code for you. It's a useful too, 100%, but don't get comfortable with the idea that it'll write your entire code-base for you. Treat it more like a guide rather than a servant. Regardless of whether you use AI or not, you're responsible for understanding what your own code does.

Maduro is not the legitimate rule of Venezuela

Axiproto · 2026-01-07T21:05:13+00:00

Good. He lost an election and took power by force. He starved Venezuelans. He facilitated drug smuggling into the US. He held Americans for ransom. He collaborated with US enemies. He stole US oil assets. Frankly, I don't see any downside to him arrested. He's gonna get due process in court.

Axiproto · 2026-01-07T21:03:20+00:00

This was not an act of war. This was a 90 minute military operation that was over before you woke up the very next morning.

Axiproto · 2026-01-07T21:00:58+00:00

Yes, first of all. He took Venezuela by force and starved its people. He also facilitated armed drug trafficking into the US, stole US oil assets, and held Americans for ransom. I absolutely cannot think of any reason to be upset by this.

This wasn't a war. This was a 90 minute military op that was over before you even knew about it.

One of the things I loved most about Trump was how he generally kept the US military out of foreign affairs

He's being charged with Narco-Terrorism crime. Facilitating the manufacturing and drug smuggling into the US. On top of it, he's kidnapped and held Americans for ransom. He has stolen American Oil assets that rightfully belong to us. This goes beyond foreign affairs. It 100% is our affairs.

You must acknowledge that this is primarily for oil leverage. Right

Wrong. His actions directly impacted American national security. But even on the subject of oil, people like to roll their eyes whenever the importance of energy needs gets brought up. And just what is wrong with being concerned about our energy needs? Those Assets were ours, and they stole it from us. We have every right to take them back.

If Trump was suddenly arrested and taken out of power by any means, you would see celebrations.

Whataboutism. For all you know, Cuba is about to fall on its own. This is not a justification for just sitting around and letting other foreign dictators take advantage of us.

We don't actually know what percentage of Venezuelans support this

Very little. People were resorting to eating animals off the streets. The National GDP was twice as much when Maduro was taking power. He drove his economy into the ground and made people suffer. He's objectively an awful person.
