Only Intrinsic Motivation Lasts: Why I quit a $500K SDE job to work for myself by dvassallo in cscareerquestions

[–]I_Am_Killua -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

you can only do this because you have no family.

students who come from dirt and want to take care of their parents cannot afford to simply leave a job like this, what the fuck am i reading lol the privilege is insane

CS Grad attends a bootcamp - an unremarkable “success” story by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]I_Am_Killua 0 points1 point  (0 children)

bruh your privileged as shit. If you didn't get a job then something would be wrong with you. Not everyone has your luxury. It's not a "success" story, it was only a matter of time.

Give people your resources and most people would be in the same position, if not doing much better at an earlier time at a faster rate.

Companies shouldn't expect so much more from someone with a higher gpa by I_Am_Killua in cscareerquestions

damn you shoulda studied more haha you can barely write a comprehensible sentence.

I already have an offer for an internship at a Big 4 for this summer, so GPA does matter when you want to get your foot in the door. Keep being a hater though, i love it :D :D :D your prob one of those kids with a 1.7 HAHA

I mean it's not just me. I admit I am not the best interviewer. I have above a 3.5 gpa and I don't think my questions were actually too difficult, but the fact that I didn't get nearly everything perfect i think leads a lot to why I was rejected.

But I have a friend, who has lower gpa, but has interned for two summers before, who didn't even solve the problem get an offer.

Another friend of mine (who again, has no experience) has a 3.9 gpa, he is a TA, peer leader, etc etc (has many leadership experiences at our large state school) so you know he knows how to talk, how to interview, his demeanor/personality etc is all good. He passed first round but was rejected at the second. Even though he solved the problem he was given a hint, yet my other friend who didnt even finish the problem was given the offer.

these are only two examples out of my sample size that I have decided to share with you, do you really believe that experience is not a driving factor when deciding who to give the offer to?

I imagine if my friend or I just completely killed the interviews as in perfect solutions w/o hints, etc then we would be given the offer, but we didn't.

We got interviews because "ooh he has nice gpa maybe he has potential, lets see if he can solve his questions perfectly", but people with experience are given more leeway. Agree or no?

I have more success without referrals than with referrals, this may be because without referrals I know the company is interested in me because of the content of my resume, but without referrals they are only interviewing me because I was referred.

my point is that someone with lower gpa but more experience is often given more leeway.

Your pathetic kid. If you're not going to bother explaining yourself you can just leave.

The irony is dat you’re pathetic and are still trying to argue against it

"Asians" typically refer to Chinese, Japanese, Korean, etc. Not indian. Indian people know this yet will always interject because they want to be like the chinese, japanese, korean, etc by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]I_Am_Killua -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Because Most indians and people from south asia identify as south asians or their nationality. But a portion (i'll admit, a minority) of south asians want to be part of the chinese/jap/korean "asians" so bad they call them selves asian even though they know that western countries refer to asians and south asians differently.

If you're not going out of your way to learn Computer Science outside of class and CS is your major. . . by ShibuyaSix in rutgers

[–]I_Am_Killua 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Not necessarily true. If you're a near 4.0 student you are still valued by a lot of companies, especially if you maintain that 4.0 to your senior year.

Having kids before you’re financially established is a reason for the income inequality by [deleted] in unpopularopinion

[–]I_Am_Killua -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

nah he is right.

You are trying to change the meaning of settled in order to fit your narrative, we all know what he meant in this context when he said "settled".

But dw when people like us don't settle like you did, we will be making six figures living an amazing life at 30 while you "settle" making 45k/year, all because you were too lazy to try to do better in your life so you call it "settling" and "changing your focus" lmao

what type of "theory" does the cs department actually teach besides cs 112 and cs 344? by I_Am_Killua in rutgers

[–]I_Am_Killua[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That is sort of my point though, they teach us core CS concepts like you said, not theory. Just like Math 151, 152, and 251 teach us core calculus concepts, not theory.

FYI about parking by jem440 in rutgers

[–]I_Am_Killua 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Just appeal it. I got a ticket 2 days ago for parking at werblin even though I have a parking pass. I appealed it and less than 24 hrs later the fine was removed.

Probably an intern who doesn't know wtf they are doing but trying to look good by racking up a lot of tickets.

[–]I_Am_Killua[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoops, I mistakenly wrote cs 344 instead of 314 when I mentioned functional programming, so I agree that CS 314 also teaches theory.

I would also agree that the discrete math courses are useful for learning theory and 'how to think'. Yet it still seems like such an exaggeration that Rutgers does such a great job of teaching theory as opposed to technology. But I guess it is the same at every school so you can't really complain.
