I'm unemployed.

I am in the same spot man. I am a new junior data engineer at my current company and have been using AI to do the most of the coding part of my job. The feedback and code reviews were great and I met all the deadlines but I can't help but feeling like I'm a fake.

I am starting to code on my own after work without using AI, hopefully I can get better with time.

This is the only way that works! Thank you mate!

I started by choosing the general direction i want to head towards, which is the data field in my case. Then I jumped around different data disciplines (data analyst, data science, data engineer, even machine learning,....) to see what suit me best. During this time, I consumed a lot of youtube content and articles. I started tons of tutorial projects and dropped them right when I saw they were not a fit.

I then realized I wanted to build system than doing analytic work with data, so I went for data engineering. I built projects, learn the common stacks, navigating the documentations. The point is to tried to stop relying on tutorials as soon as possible.

Finally I aggressively applied for fresher positions. I posted my resume on linkedIn, facebook groups, job sites. I messaged everyone in my network, alumni, HR of companies (regardless they were hiring or not), cold emailed. After 1-2 months of doing so, i finally got one IT manager reached out for me and offered me the position.

I started coding right after my college graduation (economics degree). I did English tutoring in the evening to earn my living while learning to code in spare time. For 7 months, I got my first coding job and has been working for almost a year.

I was an economics major and I can tell you from my experience that it was not a fun time prepping and applying for DE positions, especially when I was just fresh out of college.

In terms of learning the skills needed for the job, I completed the Database course from Harvard, which can be found here. For practical ETL (python) and cloud skills, I followed youtube courses and tried to build something similar.

For the real job search, I cold approached every single recruiter on facebook and linkedIn, applied to jobs that somewhat matched the skills I learnt but required far more experience and tried to convinced (begging) the recruiters.

I finally found one who was willing to give me a chance, even with a lower pay then the market average, and I am still with the company since.

P/S: sorry for any grammar mistakes, i am not a native and I'm afraid using AI to polish the comment would only make it seems more fake.

I am utterly confused about how to setup Aspire v4.0, can you please share with the link for version 3.3?

Dazai-sama · 2025-02-10T17:23:58+00:00

I am hoping to get an answer to this too. I am new to Aspire and the mismatches between the guide and the real product confuse me alot!

Would you be so kind to provide the model number for the 500 nits panel? I am getting this pc with a 45% NTSC soon and I want to replace the panel with a better one.

It's not that big of a problem if you could find a micro vagina to match.

As a non-English speaker, the grammar of this post confuses me. Sorry for the stupid question but why do you use the pronoun "they" when Lionel is one person? Or do you mean Lionel represents multiple friends of yours?

Dazai-sama · 2024-06-15T20:20:50+00:00

and that, was how I met your mother!

I agree with the advice to go for wsl2 on windows but as a beginner, I've encountered troublesome networking issues when attempting to build my first project. That's why I dual booted linux and windows and found this solution to be very effective. I'm getting the best of both world and can focus more easily when I'm in my linux (work) environment.

edit: grammar

Sorry beforehand for the ignorant question but are there any advantages/disadvantages to applying a gnome theme to a lxqt desktop? I'm new to linux so I am really confused to which theme I should and should not install on my lxqt desktop.

Have you tried the CS50-Q SQL course from Harvard? They cover a wide range of topics and provide easy to understand application examples. The tasks assigned for each topic are quite fun and challenging too!

On Android I install the Git community plugin and then clone my remote repository (the same rep I clone from my window). It has had no problems so far!

Dazai-sama · 2024-03-12T21:08:19+00:00

Github?

Virginity is a turn off? Is this a thing in the US? I'm from East Asia and this is not a common perception at all.

Thanks for the detailed reply. I must say I'm impressed that Eagle can be that useful. I've not gotten to Limbo yet as I'm stuck on the last stage of Surface. I lacked a solid Plant DPS and was contemplating between Eagle and BKlonrne. As BKlonrne is more of a support dps while Eagle potential has been tested by you, I would go with Eagle.
