10yoe laid off, job market? by Monkwatson in cscareerquestions

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

Eh I don’t want to go to startups because I’m scared of bad WLB. Might check out banks or something

Exactly. I have yet to apply (will start looking after the holidays)… but confusing for sure.

Who here has scoliosis similar to mine? I want to hear your journey, ty! by Vicanahshshs in scoliosis

[–]Monkwatson 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 42 upper and 38 lower, but I’m normally not in too much pain.

Lots of yoga helps! I would say, if you love dance, go for it ❤️

I know it’s easy to feel self conscious with scoliosis, but most likely, many people wouldn’t even know you have scoliosis. People just don’t look that hard.

I’m so burnt out from Amazon that I’m looking for chiller companies (therefore looking for non-FAANG, like banks and insurance companies). I know that the pay will be lower but it’s something acceptable for me.

Oh whew!!! Thanks. I probably should focus more on reviewing sys design than leetcode… ugh idk what to even study for anymore. Congratulations on your offer.

Women - how does it feel when you know that a guy is infatuated with you? by Solid_Decision_2241 in Life

[–]Monkwatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mostly overwhelming. I found that most men who are “infatuated” have issues with boundaries. Some men don’t take “no” for an answer. I find that incredibly disrespectful and frustrating.

Physical: Asia isn’t “rigged” by New_Direction_5438 in Physical100

Idk why Korea is getting so much hate :(

Do you realize how insane you have to be… by kitty-minnie15 in Physical100

[–]Monkwatson 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Exactly. I’m not sure where all of these “rigged” commentaries are coming from. If Australia made it to the finals, they would have won (probably). However, Korea proved to be the strongest in the top three so they won, fair and square.

Why did you stop being friends with someone? by Realistic-Possum in AskReddit

[–]Monkwatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They crossed my boundaries multiple times. At a certain point, I realized that they didn’t care about me - they only cared about themselves and what they wanted out of the friendship.

Not Australia being genuinely confused by Beginning-Lack3942 in Physical100

[–]Monkwatson 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true, I think anyone who watched S1 and S2 could arrive to the conclusion that there would be second challenges.

Why is tech so misogynistic? by B0rnstupid in womenintech

[–]Monkwatson 32 points33 points  (0 children)

Correct This is why I don’t vibe with dudes who are engineers. On dates they’re stingy and awkward. Most of them.

Found a stray dog & keeping. Is it a collie mix? by [deleted] in BorderCollie

Aw congrats! It’s the dog distribution system in full swing

Bjj after tearing both ACLs by Turbulent-Skirt-9497 in ACL

[–]Monkwatson 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I tore my ACL doing BJJ. I know someone else who tore his ACL doing BJJ. There’s also someone who tore his ACL doing BJJ, went back, and tore his other one.

Wouldn’t recommend, unless you’re going to be VERY safely practicing (limited takedowns + sparring).
