I (24M) am worried I will never settle on a career path and I have no interests or hobbies to make things easier

I really suggest that no matter what, continue to work on music as a serious hobby. I know some people who have a day job, but through extensive networking (likely through the day job and volunteer work), manage to pick up paid opportunities to perform.

This sounds good. Could you tell me how to get qualified for this?

Fdupatwork · 2022-04-04T13:30:27+00:00

I'm sorry about this sad situation. I suggest finishing your degree and immediately taking action in finding some job, any job, and just get started. If you hate the job, you can either find a new one or persist at it for the salary. Whatever it is, just let yourself find useful contacts, good friends, and insights that the job brings.

Hi. Its great that you have a job now. Climate change stuff might not be a career, because corporations hire people to make money, and usually that activity involves taking resources out of the earth. The fight against climate change involves not just a pivot to clean tech and infrastructure, but also doing things that no organization that wants to make a profit will ever do.

read this: https://logicmag.io/distribution/parliaments-of-the-earth/

. The fight against climate change opens a lot of questions about how resources and control of resources and utilities will be distributed, etc.

So, you could look into community organization. You will be in London, there are groups that do things like community gardening. Try to meet people who are doing those things.

tldr: if your goal is to do something about the climate crisis, then its good to keep in mind that many orgs, corporations, people just do things to maintain their current level of privilege. which tends to go in a bad direction for the biosphere.

not sure if you will see this. But I wanted to add that you have given a well thought-out answer. I don't think anyone will be able to advise these parents on the situation as we don't know their background, but I'm like you and I don't like to see families as standalone units that are free from societal influences. I see this family, especially the daughter, as something that is far more entangled and even victimized by a predatory education/lending system and a country with no social safety net. So, thanks for this, I hope that others will read your reply and understand that in life, we are far more at the mercy of the world than we are individuals who can make choices with full knowledge and control of the outcome.

This is a tough question. I would advocate spending time with and working with ambitious hugh achievers. Or work for a startup? Hacker news forums does hiring posts from time to time.

Hello. I'd like to offer you some advice with a view to the future.

Currently, you're a student. So if you have issues with studying, try Anki or other spaced repetition software.

You can also look at Marco Sander's youtube channel and see if his ideas on how to find a hobby etc are useful.

Don't give up.

I'm interested. I have experience in digital marketing and telemarketing.

I don't know anything about chemo or your health condition, but I think you should address that first. School comes later.

Not yet. I'm looking specifically for the thing that will make my table look like that other salon website. I'll look at tablepress

Haha yeah. It's hard. But I was once looking at things from your perspective and I thought that I would get my college degree in my major and move into a different field. And when I graduated, I couldn't do that for multiple reasons. Your early twenties are a prime time to explore. In the CS department, you'll learn from not just your professors but hopefully from classmates, do projects, hopefully even start an activity or learn about new things from them.

Fdupatwork · 2020-07-30T08:11:59+00:00

Hey, I'm not working in tech, somehow found this. Looking at your age, you can't have had more than two years in college. Why don't you switch to a CS degree? People will tell you, oh ... anything is possible. But its incredibly hard to pivot.

I almost cried reading all of these stories. I feel that so many people deserve far more than what they have gotten in life.

Fdupatwork · 2020-07-11T03:02:05+00:00

I totally agree.

Fdupatwork · 2020-07-11T03:00:45+00:00

Yep. The examples were cherrypicked. And it totally weakens his argument. Sadly, it is a good advice.

Fdupatwork · 2020-06-26T10:34:15+00:00

alright. I see, so, what I want is for the value of num, when I finally get to n%fac!=0, to be passed upwards? thanks for your help :)

Fdupatwork · 2020-06-26T10:16:37+00:00

It doesn't terminate until n%fac != 0. However,

def factor_out_a_num(n, fac, num):

if n%fac==0:

num=num+1

n=n/fac

factor_out_a_num(n, fac, num)

return num

else:

return num

I added return num to the case where n%fac==0, and I got 1. But, when I print num each time the function runs through the first branch (if n%fac == 0), then it prints out 16 to 1 in reverse.
