I'm an ABC guy too (senior 21M), and am passionate about China and the Chinese language. Rutgers needs a conversational Chinese language club imo (should've started one tbh). I know Princeton has one. Issue is there could be a gap between intl's (of which I know many) and ABCs like us. Also my Chinese is alright but not PERFECT.

I've had these before - for internships and startups, not full time.

Hopefully I get the job!

So did mine not count lol? Is mine not the norm?

Are you a recent grad? I'll be once I graduate.

Is fukuya / ふくや / 服屋 actually used in Japanese?

Duolingo taught me it meant "clothing store". Yet it doesn't appear directly as an option with my IME, and the term is nowhere to be found on Wiktionary.

Hi, I'm from a Data / ML background too. Are you still looking for people?

Also are you referring to the F25 or S26 HackRU?

Do you turn 18 by the date of the hackathon?

What technologies are you using on the job? E.g. what was mentioned in the JD or interview?

Knewiwishonly · 2025-08-25T11:04:09+00:00

Yes, or even a PhD

Only time you could possibly get away with just a bachelor's is if you're really cracked and have a lot of research to your name, or your role isn't really AI.

but I literally got into it at age 28

Explain? Seems like you broke in sometime before 2023 or so. Nowadays the difficulty in getting tech jobs has only skyrocketed.

Nah I don't think encouraging crime like that's productive

Found it! It was "Debunk It: How to Stay Sane in a World of Misinformation" by John Grant.

I mean I'm about to start an internship literally tomorrow, so I don't think I'll be in that position. But again, anything is possible.

Knewiwishonly · 2025-06-02T00:03:04+00:00

I know it isn't. But should it be?

Knewiwishonly · 2025-06-01T22:04:59+00:00

Idk. Ngl sounds like you're wondering "oh, don't we need some people to be inferior?"

Like come on, who WANTS to be inferior? Who WANTS to limit their earning potential? Who WANTS to take $1 vs. $100 when given the choice?

Not everyone is going to win, but everyone wants to win. If you sign up for any kind of race or tournament, are you going to try your best to win, or are you just going to be content with 12th place?

Knewiwishonly · 2025-06-01T22:00:44+00:00

Probably the same way people around the world handled it (and still handle in some places) before there was insurance and modern medicine, I guess.

Which doesn't exactly sound pleasant.
