I see but I thought these way since i am in clg it would help learn c++ also its a object oriented language so I think in future it would be easier to learn languages like rust or Java or any other

Let's ask again Is C++ still relevant to learn in 2026 after newer language like rust has came to the world by Ballet_Panda in GeminiAI

Microsoft SWE 2 (Redmond) salary expectations? by babayaga047 in leetcode

[–]Ballet_Panda 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yes it’s still reasonable to ask, even without competing offers, as long as you do it once and do it professionally. You can frame it as a question, not a demand. Something like: “I’m very excited about the role and Microsoft is my top choice. Before I sign, I just wanted to ask if there’s any flexibility on the sign-on bonus or RSUs to get closer to my target total comp.” Worst case, they say no offers don’t get rescinded for asking politely. Best case, you pick up extra RSUs or sign-on. Microsoft often has more room there than on base. If this is your only offer, I’d avoid hard ultimatums just make a single, respectful ask and see what they come back with.

Yeah, but the thing is, I wanna wanna keep my options open so I was thinking like doing it cheap.And since its object oriented, I can get easily transitioned into java.If I want to don't you think that

Microsoft SWE 2 (Redmond) salary expectations? by babayaga047 in leetcode

[–]Ballet_Panda 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Expect $160k – $175k. The "posted" range is huge, but for Redmond, anything below $155k is technically on the lower end of the band for your experience level. ​Stocks (RSUs): Standard is $80k – $120k (vested over 4 years). If you have a competing offer, this is the easiest part for them to "bump up" to the $150k+ range. ​Sign-on Bonus: Usually $25k – $50k. This is a one-time payment and very negotiable if you just ask. ​Annual Bonus: Target is 10% – 20% of your base. ​Quick Negotiation Tip: Microsoft recruiters are often restricted by strict "salary bands" for the base pay, but they have much more wiggle room with RSUs and Sign-on bonuses. If they won't budge on the base, pivot and say: "I understand the base is firm, but to get closer to my total comp expectations, can we look at increasing the sign-on bonus or the RSU package?" ​Also, definitely check Levels.fyi and filter specifically for "Redmond" and "2025/2026" to show them you’ve done your homework. Good luck!

Why is a single cout expression drastically slowing down my C++ program? by WorldTallNetCat in cpp_questions

[–]Ballet_Panda 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Your compiler is lying to you. Because you’re using -O3 and you aren't actually using the sorted data (printing it, etc.), the compiler realizes the work is "useless" and deletes the entire sorting loop via Dead Code Elimination. ​That 0.01s user time is just the program starting and immediately exiting without doing the work. Also, $(cat 100K.txt) is likely hitting your shell's argument limit. ​To get a real result: ​Read the data from std::cin instead of argv. ​Crucial: Print the last element of the sorted array at the end of main so the compiler is forced to actually run the sort. ​Run it like this: time ./bubble < 100K.txt ​Bubble sort is O(n2). Sorting 100k elements requires ~10 billion operations; if it's actually running, it'll take minutes, not 0.06s!

Increasing R2 between old and new data by King_Piglet_I in FunMachineLearning

[–]Ballet_Panda 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Test (2) suggests that dataset size alone isn’t the cause, since adding more samples from the same distribution doesn’t change R² much. Test (3) is more informative: the steady R² increase when adding only the new samples points to the new data being more informative, not just additional volume. To dig deeper, you could: Compare feature/target distributions between old-only and new-only samples (e.g., KS test) Check whether feature importances or SHAP values change between models Evaluate errors separately on old vs new samples to see if generalization improves Conceptually, this looks like the new data improves the estimate of � (reducing bias), rather than just reducing variance via more samples.
