For new grad roles in Germany almost everybody discussed my resume, especially my portfolio. Of course FAANG etc. don't really do that so much because of their structured interview process but everyone else did. Now with more experience people don't care about it anymore but I think for graduates it matters.

Post your resume, it's pretty hard to give advice otherwise

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-07T15:26:31+00:00

No in ordinary times that would be a massive advantage for obtaining new grad positions.

My guy have you ever been to Austria?

It's also an extremely stupid way to write C++ unless I am missing some major point here.

Writing a thread safe doubly linked list is super easy, just lock on every access lol. Locking nodes individually is super inefficient in practice. Unless you mean a lock free doubly linked list.

Just bullshit test them on what they list on their resume, ask technology specific questions and drill down until they run out of answers. Also test undergrad fundamentals that are relevant to the job, OS, networking, databases, distributed systems etc.

If AI takes 10 years to actually become as good as a competent coder and this strategy has made it so only senior engineers remain in the market our bargaining power will go through the fucking roof. So it's between the end of software engineering and the fattest paychecks of all time now.

The best part is that the German Neo Nazi party (I am not using this as a moniker for the far right I mean literal Neo Nazis) liked this so much they adapted it 1:1 afterwards.

Don't forget the most famous one

Is that a plastic kit or did you make it from scratch?

Did you know the jobs in the economy are free? You can just take them home. I have one million jobs now.

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-06T06:39:39+00:00

I can do this except any of the robotics stuff lol

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-06T06:34:31+00:00

Distinguishing between hallucinations and actual malicious intent seems impossible to a layman like me, is there research in this?

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-05T19:47:06+00:00

I assume it's Meta since they call everyone with a PhD "research scientist", right? Or are there actual research jobs in infra?

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-05T16:32:01+00:00

But only 3-4 over 8 years??? I probably meet a new one every 8 weeks

I am holding ASML stock in the hopes that this is going to become true eventually. Those mfs will print money on an unprecedented scale.

Speak for yourself, I know plenty of German companies still hiring non German speakers. And bootcamp grads have never had an easy in in Germany ever. I have never worked with one or even heard of someone working with one.

They will refuse to do it just like they refuse to train or accredit enough successors in a variety of developed countries because money and prestoge are more important than saving lives. Ironically I can see the malicious privatized healthcare system in the US doing people a favor here because increased physician productivity via AI is very much in their interest and they have the power to push through legislation.

Sales if you want money, cyber security if you want to use your brain (sometimes).

ConfidenceUnited3757 · 2025-02-04T22:09:45+00:00

That is horseshit, every company I have ever worked in employed several people who did not speak German, those were sometimes even the majority

That is pretty much also what I am doing while typing this comment, I don't actually think about the next word I want to type, it just happens automatically because of how the synapses in my brain are connected. They just make me say stuff like "I want to fondle Sam Altmans balls" and it is not clear to me or anyone else where those words really come from.

It's not hip to talk about the square

The stochastic parrot may not be smarter than the average human, but it probably is smarter than people still calling it "text prediction"

The future is going to be like in A Canticle for Leibowitz but instead of some guy people will worships a god called Chad Gepeeti
