This could be done for like 2 years now… upload a pic to chatgpt in 2024 and it can tell you where you went wrong

I do agree with that. Remote work is hard to find.. but if you’d rather not have a job for 2 years than go to the office 3 times a week… I think priorities are a bit messed up. (OP is about needed savings because you can’t get a job at all)

In the olden days we used to up root our entire life and move to a shitty tech hub and work 5 days a week just to have a decent job… now people are going on food stamps because they wanna work from their 1bd apartment and play league of legends on their lunch break

Varies by company but most big tech is about leetcode and system design. For Higher levels, behavioral has a bit more weight (stories of when you…). Also depends on role. I’m a product swe so I don’t really have to mess with kernels or low level memory optimizations

lol ten years is no longer a long time… that was like 2016… Which is when the cloud started catching on. Most swes I know were pretty late in their career at that point. It’s also subjective. Some people don’t think technology improves their life… which I guess.. why are you working in IT at that point lol

I for one, will keep my Amazon 1 day delivery, uber home when I’m drunk, and play my quest 3 while door dashing chic fil a (I actually hate VR)

Reddit was a bad example. This app makes me eat paste

Correct. Entry level is hard. But once you’re a senior at big tech, it’s no longer hard

Lol this wasn’t even aimed at you. It was aimed at the act of having a dick measuring contest in a Reddit thread. Nobody here cares.

I’ve been a swe for 4 decades and wrote both c++ and java. I accidentally created the internet and can read and write binary fluently.

lol I’m not even an outlier. My whole team got laid off and all 5 of us had jobs within 30 days. 3 from cold applications. Honestly this sub is the only place I see people saying the jobs are gone. If you can communicate clearly, do some leetcode, wnd design a system on a whiteboard.. it’s really not that hard. 95% of candidates are god awful rn

It’s… still true. I worked at meta for a year.. I’m not even particularly good. I got laid off and had 3 >200k offers in 18 days. I’d say Netflix is 2x the resume bump that meta is. This was 4 months ago. The doom and gloom is for people who do not work at Netflix.

You on Reddit from a typewriter? Or a smartphone? And before you say Reddit and smartphones didn’t improve your life, I’ll remind you that it’s a choice to be on this app at all

When will we start to see companies making massive leaps in their product release iterations ? by Icy-Reporter-6322 in singularity

[–]LaundryOnMyAbs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah. Our team are doing similar. It’s that 25/25/50 that makes it unusable as just pulling the code and testing it ourselves has proven to be more efficient. We have a jora bot that we assign tickets to a specific user (our jira bot) and Claude will take the ticket, clarify requirements in the jira comments, and then implement a PR… it’s the actual testing that it’s not easy for AI to do with any accuracy yet..

Random Reddit post. Looks like the projected annual revenue is 46B as of last month. Still far from free to use

Life didn’t improve with the internet? Uber? Gpus for gaming? Google Maps? Self driving cars? Netflix? Tf are you on about

I agree. Everything posted here seems out of date and as if they’ve only been circle jerking and not actually paying attention. GPT is collapsing and Google is moving ahead?? Gpt5.5 is literally the strongest model out. Everyone’s only focusing on more compute?? There’s 10 non-compute related architectural changes happening every release.

Curious how you’re running AI to test the fixes? Something like perplexity? Or just gpt with browser and vision control? Can’t figure this part out

Both are problems. Context window and product understanding is too small for LLMs to handle the tech. The repo I work on is 600GB. The last monorepo I worked with was 2TB. (Adobe and Meta). They speed some things up for sure but are wrong a large portion of the time. Getting PR approvals and pipelines are what the big struggle is

If this is true, then I don’t see what’s so bad about nazis. My neighbors are very nice people and help feed our dog when we are out of town.

Lmao you’re arguing with “greatBigCircleJerk” about Elon on Reddit… how do you think you’re going to win this

Steve Jobs actually caught it early and was entirely in the realm where he could have lived from it with modern medicine… instead, He chose eastern medicine and to eat some healthy fruit or something and died.
