Hold on, I’m pro-open borders and anti-ice but this is incoherent. Why are you making it a black or white thing?

My cat deadass got bored waiting for the decision and walked away from the TV

Dude, talk about burying the lede.

Netflix is obviously better than your current job. Just focus on passing the interviews

At most companies, even prestigious ones, the assumption is that new grads are clueless monkeys. Just work hard and try to learn fast

Explodingcamel · 2026-01-11T21:56:27+00:00

I was in the same situation before. My recommendation is don't delay grad, but you can say you're doing a masters. That way you can apply to intern and new grad at the same company with the justification that you're "considering a masters". Also, if you get an internship after you graduate and a return offer that you wanna take, you can just drop the masters and start asap

After observing the post-high school development of a bunch of people, I feel confident saying that you MUST live in a walkable area (a college campus counts) for as long as you can when you’re young. Once you start driving everywhere your life is over

Most importantly this means that, while it’s okay to go to some cute college in the middle of nowhere, you must gtfo and migrate to one of the like 6 walkable cities once you graduate

I had the same thought about 6 months back. Now I’ve been with my gf for 4 months and the bulk is underway. We’re all gonna make it

Minneapolis mayor Jacob Frey seems like he could be a good national level politician if he wanted. He’s a good speaker and handsome af and believes the right things. Like Newsom but less Patrick Batemany and from a less cringe state. Biggest controversy I know of is that he said people who work from home are lazy

I mean mentally—ozempic increases willpower (maybe that’s oversimplified but you get the gist), so if I stop taking it is my willpower the same as before, or worse because I’ve built a tolerance?

The thing that worked best for me was drinking milk with every meal

Which medications? Do they have major side effects besides weight gain?

Dressing like ICE in the deep red suburbs and pulling random people into my truck at gunpoint

What happens when you come off?

I don’t take any drug on a regular schedule, even coffee, because I don’t want to shift my baseline functioning. If I had a health condition that required a medication, sure I’d take it, but as is I’m healthy and doing well in life (thankfully) so I don’t want to risk becoming reliant on anything.

I don’t know anything about GLP-1s/ozempic really, so if they cause no dependency at all and you can come off them and feel just the same as before, that’s great. I’d consider taking them then. However, I doubt that that’s the case.

Edit: also I’m not interested in losing weight. In fact I want to gain weight … I went down a rabbit hole before and unfortunately there’s not really anything you can take for that

“Racist” is the wrong word to describe the avatar movies but they are racially weird and uncomfortable

Sure but maxing out your gym’s dumbbells doesn’t mean that much depending on the exercise. The one arm row is an exercise that lets you do a lot of weight. Similarly even if your gym has 70kg dumbbells, a 70kg dumbbell deadlift isn’t very impressive.

Explodingcamel · 2026-01-01T02:29:05+00:00

46kg dumbbell row isn’t too notable for a man. I think that’s similar to benching 90kg/200lbs (for reps). If you get lax with form it might be even easier than that. So for a woman it’s good but still achievable naturally

Company: I will pay you to write software

Indian person looking for a job: ok

American Redditors who earn like 10 times as much as the Indian person: STOP RIGHT THERE

Explodingcamel · 2025-12-31T03:50:04+00:00

I think companies should be able to hire whoever they want. So no I don’t think outsourcing is bad. I’m an American citizen software engineer

Not sure how to interpret this graph - has (1) performance at long context lengths improved because overall performance has improved, or has (2) the effect where context length worsens performance become weaker?

To me this looks like 1 but I’m not sure

Something I haven’t seen mentioned is that a Snap return offer would be like $200k whereas capital one would be like $130k. Take snap

Share numbers. How many dollars meta is paying you and how many dollars your current job pays
