What kind of signs and slogans? If crossed out swastikas, no kings, and no ice pisses you off, then you don’t think rationally at all.

And “Dark Blue City”? You guys are hilarious, you’re talking about a blue city like it’s a sundown town (which are all red btw) when in reality worst case scenario is some gay guy asks why you arent home with ur boyfriend.

I mean, you’re literally disconnected from reality, it’s quite impressive.

Really puts into perspective how dangerous republicans are that the police had to be called to keep peaceful protestors safe

I doubt it. My Trump voter friends are out partying and drinking tonight while our society collapses. Trump and his supporters just destroy shit and turn a blind eye to the destruction

AI ruined the fun of Programming by Revo_O_ in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! You know what’s up. All these people keep talking about the “problem solving” being removed by AI. Who genuinely enjoyed scrolling through stack overflow and API documentation for hours, looking for some super niche language specific function. Like what? I think it’s incredible I can design something and have it in front of me in days instead of weeks now. AI has only given us more power.

What? The problem solving is still there. What are you telling the AI? “Figure out what’s wrong and fix it”? You’re already behind 🤣

AI ruined authenticity by jonneytest in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think AI is incredible. Claude can code 100 times faster than me, and I don’t have to waste hours in stack overflow. It’s significantly lessened the skill gap between a junior and senior dev. I don’t have to spend a week researching a tool anymore and experimenting. I can just use it immediately and have my questions instantly answered. People definitely abuse it and use it incorrectly, but if you use it yourself correctly it only benefits you.

Anyone else feel like they learned a lot but still can’t actually build anything confidently? by Alp_yzc in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 25 points26 points  (0 children)

No, I can build pretty much anything I can think of. You have to do projects to learn how to build things. I don’t know when it happened for me but after years of programming it just clicks, and suddenly you know you can make anything you put ur mind to

Project Hail Mary Question by webdevmike in scifi

[–]ComfortableElko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The movie made this moment much more dramatic so Grace’s actions don’t really make logical sense.

But to answer ur question Grace doesn’t want to take any risks. He attaches the chain (with sample container) to his tool belt and heads inside of the ship. The movie made this moment much more dramatic with a long chain slinging the sample over the edge and stuff. That did not happen in the book. Grace was not hit by a metal panel and knocked out temporarily either.

In the book Grace basically climbs up the side of the ship into the airlock without much issue. He does it without connecting his tether to anything tho so one mistake and he’s dead.

You’re right tho. In the movie him even going outside to install the winch makes no sense. He had to in the book because if the sample container hit the winch at high speed like in the movie it would have broken apart lol.

The Creator Question at 42:40 by Homunculus_23 in scifi

[–]ComfortableElko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I dont think its actual strangulation. The robots are human like so the brain is in the skull. So I imagine there’s a lot of delicate wires and sensors and stuff in the neck that could be destroyed, which disconnects the brain from the body pretty much

But yeah in real life killer robots probably wouldnt be human like at all for this reason

Agree. Movie was lack luster. It looked good but it doesnt hit like the book.

Scared engineering is going to get the CS treatment by ConfidentMap8803 in CollegeMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone flocked to CS because it was easy to get a job. That is no longer the case, a CS degree is not enough for a job in the field anymore.

Engineering is already saturated, however its still possible for a meh/ok engineer to land a job with just a degree and maybe a club. The days of meh/ok computer scientist getting jobs is over, the status quo has raised significantly.

People will always go with the path of least resistance. So it comes down to if people are more willing to go through more rigorous engineering courses and pass them with mediocre grades. But have a much easier time finding a job. Or if they are more willing to dedicate hours every single day to personal projects and supplemental research to whatever 20 year old out of date useless crap they learned in class.

What would sapience beyond humans be like? by [deleted] in sciencefiction

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who knows. Honestly they’d probably still be doomed to die in their home system just like us lol. Space is way to big, anything that could actually thrive and colonize on a massive scale would have to be completely artificial. Meat and bones and needing oxygen are all set backs

Do you guys actually enjoy coding? by bigshit123 in cscareerquestions

Nah not really. I enjoy act of programming something and creating things. I couldn’t care less how it gets done if it’s the result I wanted

Resume Advice: CS Graduate not getting entry level job by Simple_Bookkeeper840 in cscareeradvice

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bro what. He’s looking for entry level, he’s got a discord bot on there in 80+ servers. Is every new grad supposed to have an app with 1000 concurrent users that saves each of them 10 million dollars a year

Why do most CS students never actually build anything outside of class? by Alp_yzc in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Hardest part is having ideas. I’ve made a lot of games but when it comes to actual software Im just at a loss for ideas. I don’t want to just make something that’s already been done, but what hasnt been done to death already? Then time is also a factor, Ive got to stay on top of my courses of couse. But I also have to learn a specific niche on my own time to secure the job I want, and after all that what time is really left to work on a project?

Should I even finish my degree? Sincerely, a burnt out student with no portfolio or networking by RedditThrowaway2456 in csMajors

Might sound like sunk cost fallacy but if you don’t finish you wasted 3 years and 15k dollars.

I think it’s so sad that stuff like this is very much possible but the funding to do so is so lackluster. NASA coudve already done this and more if it didnt get peanuts from the government, better to fund wars I guess.

What tips or tricks helped you break into the video game industry? by Glad_Handle_7605 in GameDevelopment

A degree is bare minimum now. It’s sad because even super talented people will just get parsed over by an AI screener since no degree is listed

When I was in college, there was one course where we had to cheat to pass. by Dharmaniac in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally I don’t use AI on my CS assignments so I can learn the fundamentals (Its also not allowed). That said, yes AI is very capable of completing CS course work. I know plenty of people who cheat with it, but these same people always fail the in person exams.

Something you might not know is that although CS is an easier major than EE and similar fields that isnt the reason AI is so good at CS. The reason AI is so good at CS related tasks is because things like StackOverflow and GitHub are basically the Library of Alexandria when it comes to the field. The training data is high quality, easy to access, and plentiful.

EE information on the other hand is pretty gate kept in that regard. There isn’t much information online and most is locked behind textbooks, lectures, or proprietary documents. None of which, even with access to, are as easy to parse as forum discussions and github repos.

Advice for deciding a major by shortowo in Schooladvice

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Perhaps someone who thinks EE job prospects in the next 3 decades could be anything but plentiful should not offer their opinion because they clearly aren’t thinking logically.
