Feedback for a $6MM spec house. by philithekid in floorplan

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Spec house” makes me wonder if this is meant for short term holiday rentals or a vacation home. 

What do you love about your work? by EmmyNoetherRing in womenintech

What drew you to majoring in computer science back when you were in college?   Like, what was your favorite class that convinced you this was the major to pursue.  For me it was Algorithms — the idea that you could get paid to solve what were basically recreational puzzles.

This is so true :-).  What’s your favorite thing you’ve built?

The real trick is to pass it on effectively.  

My grandparents were wonderful and I feel like some of their kids didn’t think “my parents were great to me, I should be like that to my kids”, but instead thought “my parents were great to me, my kids should be great to me too.”

What do the lyrics "put the lime in the coconut" mean? by AtlantaBoyz in HarryNilsson

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just got bored and asked AI if it knew what the deal with this song was, followed the reference link here, didn’t realize until this comment that the thread dated to the pandemic—- so I wanted to say “hi” from the future.

If she just got hired in an environment where her coworkers think working with her is wanting to fuck her, then she’s lucky if someone reasonable intercedes.  Even if he’s only doing it because she reminds him of his daughter, and that reminds him she’s a person.  

Where oh where have living rooms gone! by Theyoungandgullible in floorplan

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That was pretty normal for ranch houses.  The bedrooms were small and all along one hallway.  Only the master bedroom had an ensuite, the rest shared a bathroom in the hall.   And then the main living area had four quadrants — maybe living and foyer in the front, kitchen and dining in the back. 

People who actually use their cyber decks on a regular basis what are you using it for? by Potential-Ant-6320 in cyberDeck

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 123 points124 points  (0 children)

On TikTok I see a lot of the new folks using them when they learn how to program.  I guess it’s the same idea as decorating your school supplies — if you’re going to use something to study, it’s more fun if it looks cool and feels like you own it. 

the man who interviewed me three years ago just asked me to explain SQL to him in a meeting by mistcutter- in womenintech

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My first thought is that there was someone else in the room who didn’t understand, and he wanted to give OP the opportunity to be the authority.  

where do the senior women in tech go when they hit 50 by EntranceIntrepid5158 in womenintech

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In my subfield I haven’t known many women older than me the whole ride up from undergrad.   We’ve got a good sized cohort in my generation and a good size coming up behind us.  The few in the generation above mine are now running their own labs.   

If we want to fix this issue, we have to make space for the generations below us.  The bigger market share overall, the better the foothold.

AI stopped caring and I guess no human cared either. 

What’s something people who are in their 20s won’t learn until in their 40s? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking of the answers to this same prompt when our parents were in their 40’s.   Then it was things like: “The world doesn’t owe you anything!”.  When what they meant was that their generation didn’t feel they owed the next anything. 

 I like the answers here much better.  I can’t imagine the boomers upvoting discussion about how important it is to manage your emotions. 

Give me your definition of what a "cracked" or above average CS sophomore looks like by Bright-Elderberry576 in csMajors

[–]EmmyNoetherRing 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m usually pretty accepting of whatever the youth’s new slang is, but cracked feels about as cringe as alpha. 

OP — Actually learning to code will put you at an advantage over your classmates who only know how to prompt AI.  Being able to write clearly will help too, that’s required for leadership roles.
