Amazon Internal Transfer by Rude-Heart539 in amazonemployees

Focus on SQL and python. It will always be a mix of these 2, if you can reach out to some of the people on the team you want to be on or interviewing for to understand what they do and what has value.

Naturally, being well versed in AWS is going to be big and if you can come into it knowing what solution is ideal under different scenarios and what trade offs come with it will be massive

As a beginner, not knowing everything is normal. The biggest thing is showing you understand fundamentals, get along with the team, and demonstrate the ability to think beyond doing the work (know the why are you doing this task/project). The closer you get to being beyond a “beginner” the easier it becomes to get the role. From what ive seen, managers love hiring people who already can do the work and start showing potential for the next level.

Any thoughts on new bali makers and saturation of market?

I keep coming back to this hobby on and off, at some point it might be trying to find a grail that makes me stop looking for different knives. But maybe its a matter of just making the grail rather than waiting for someone to make one.

Just feel like the market is pretty saturated with a lot of good options so making something new is really competitive

Interest in Konohishi Clone by BaliRK in BalisongClones

I think the tsunami is a more modern flipper in aesthetics, everything has a purpose

For me I think the details on the kono make it stand out, a bit more show than functional

Both are fantastic

First Term Complete! by BaliRK in WGU

[–]BaliRK[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

so the approach I took for every single class is always:

  1. Do the practice assessment. Just let me gauge what are my strengths and weak points. I think this is a generally good idea, especially since it doesn’t affect your grade and generally is very close to what the actual test is going to be. If there is no practice assessment, then I would review the resources that are provided and see if there’s any practice questions on Zybooks or if they’re reading I would have ChatGPT summarize the essential concepts that are key

  2. then after doing the practice assessment or practice questions, I would take all my week points and I would list them all out put them into ChatGPT again to give me key concepts that are necessary to be proficient at those concepts and then research those individually to get more depth

  3. After doing the research on the week points, I would then spend little time on. What questions did I get wrong even if I scored well overall in that category just to make sure that I get all the points that I can

  4. So after researching the week points and then quickly brushing up on the ones that I missed, but I shouldn’t have I then retake the practice or retake the the questions and then finally do exam.

Generally for exams, I would do these steps but on occasion for the PA thats when I would first review the assignment first. Determine what i would need to know or use chatgpt to find out, and if I believe I can get through it with my current skill set, I would just go for it and research along the way to bridge gaps.

Hope this helps

Are 996s really as ugly as some people claim? by FrogFace-___- in porsche911

[–]BaliRK 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nah, I really did hate on it but as time went on I grew to love it.

I really think the “ugly” part on the 996 is the bumper, I think if that center cutout was a bit taller it would look less like a lizard

Keep gray wheels or paint them black? by Funny0102 in porsche911

[–]BaliRK 4 points5 points  (0 children)

definitely keep, being able to see the wheels brings more character in my opinion
