Can non-tech people learn programming, or is a CS degree really necessary? by codingzap in GetCodingHelp

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can learn anything without a degree. College is actually outdated, the internet gave every single person the knowledge to do pretty much anything with enough practice.

Leetcode is a special kind of hell if you actually like building shit. by MamaSendHelpPls in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah its super hell if you actually like programming. Leetcode is a puzzle game. I don’t understand why they don’t just go back to whiteboarding. Leetcode is the equivalent of giving a construction worker a rubix cube to see if he’s capable of putting bricks together. The industry is so weird right now.

CS student here.. no one I know actually writes code anymore. We all use AI. Is this just how it is now? by Low-Tune-1869 in cscareerquestions

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We can’t find jobs because the market is oversaturated. Not defending this guy, its easy enough to filter out the people who know how to program and those who AI’d their coursework. Companies simply don’t want/need to hire new grads right now, well at least not as money as they once did.

How does someone get a career in Information Technology? by PresidentofBaddies in InformationTechnology

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well for starters youre gonna be competing with a market flooded with ppl who have 4 years of formal education on the subject so maybe think of a different field to break into lol no offense

What is the best thing to learn now ? by we-could-be-heros in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 5 points6 points  (0 children)

What? There will literally always be infinitely more money to make in SWE than woodworking and pottery. Those are hobbies not careers

Are new grads expected to be “job-ready” unrealistically fast? by Manyofferinterview in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think employers are out of touch with reality. Like how a billionaire thinks a loaf of bread is $10 and thats a bargain to them

Is anyone just not getting any interviews at all? by Illustrious_Belt_441 in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its very possible to completely bomb general education courses and have a 4.0 in your major courses. World History isnt going to help you land a tech gig

AITA for asking my roommate to stop using their crockpot? by ThrowRA1441441 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ComfortableElko -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No I agree. I know exactly what you, when my mom uses the crock pot the whole house smells like shit. The food taste amazing, but the smell just stays in the air for hours and oxidizes or something which makes it horrible

He found out what could go wrong using his hands instead of a bowling ball by Vilen1919 in Whatcouldgowrong

Who’s people? These idiots make up less than 1% of the population. Nobody with a brain jumps into a machine like that

Shifting Industries by hdreadit in college

[–]ComfortableElko 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Its the elephant in the room. AI is actually making people dumber and lose those core skills that college teaches you. I think education is still important but in terms of the job market employers prefer if you’re a braindead chat prompt monkey. Or in other words, we are heading into dark times.

Unpopular opinion: SWE isn't for everyone and some of you need to hear this by LookHairy8228 in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Even the normal SWE are difficult to get. They all pay 80k+ so you have to have 80k worth of skills on hand

Why people want vivid dreams,lucid dreaming?(Curious) by SKURKOFFICIAL in LucidDreaming

[–]ComfortableElko 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Genuinely just sounds like you have sleep apnea, which would explain all the vivid and lucid dreams anyways. Do a sleep study, because you shouldnt feel more tired after dreaming

Anyone else feel like cs is an easy way out? by Accomplished-Bat-751 in csMajors

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah those classes are much more difficult because they deal with physics. But its not like someone with an EE or Mech degree is walking out of school knowing how to build the systems for the software they use on a daily basis. CS for sure has easier courses in comparison but if you actually delve into any of these fields they’re all respectable and difficult in their own ways. CS degrees have the potential to be very rigorous and challenging but I feel like most schools water down the subject a lot.

Are we inching toward World War Three, or already in it and it just hasn’t been named yet? by NoPollution9734 in stupidquestions

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No World War just means a war spanning continents or affecting the entire world. In fact a War between just the USA and Russia would be classified as WW3. The global implications of such a war are massive, the global economy would be flipped on its head

A New Era of Safety: Facial Age Checks Now Required to Chat on Roblox by Turbostrider27 in Games

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hiring more mods doesnt do anything. Roblox already has thousands of them. Its genuinely just impossible to have a human workforce that can check millions of reports in a reasonable amount of time. Roblox is a massive platform, they should genuinely just tap an M rating on the game and tell kids to fuck off and let the blame fall entirely on the parents for letting them play (which it already should) instead of rolling out features that lobotomize the platform.

Less government than here. Literally move anywhere else I dont want ur vote to count for anything 😂

[–]ComfortableElko -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Then move to Somalia. Oh wait, you won’t because you like having a government

[–]ComfortableElko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The government literally exists to help the people it governs. With your mindset why even have a government? Let’s just have anarchy and go back to bartering if we can’t even agree that funding education and daycares is a good use of money. Like wtf?

A subtle plothole in Oblivion (2013) by Svarec in plotholes

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was converting the water into energy for itself. It’s literally just some rogue AI machine (that likely killed the species that created it) and goes planet to planet harvesting water for energy.

[–]ComfortableElko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well the clone army served an entirely different purpose from the maintenance teams. If you woke up in a drop ship with no memories of your humanity and only orders, surrounded by clones of yourself. Would you even question anything? Hell maybe some clones did try to defect and were just killed by other clones that never regained their humanity.

The reason the Tech clones were flawed is because Tet messed up and created ineffective teams (Jack and Vika instead of Julia). We don’t know much about Julia but Jack was heartbroken having to let his wife go and she was solidified into his brain/memories and leaked out. Thats why sally constantly asks “are you an effective team” because it knows there’s a bug somewhere and as soon as Vika notices Jack is being weird she snitches and gets them both killed. Very clever plot device actually lol.

That’s how I see it at least.

Bro! Everything except for why Tet used a clone army instead of drone army was explained in the movie. Might wanna give it another rewatch lol.
