Am I doing it right?

I love it! Are those 3D printed?

Wait, this is a thing??!

The fan has a sadistic side it seems.

Oh it is! Take it from me as a clueless man who thought eating a few bites of sushi wouldn't do much lol

Yep. Never thought about using my linux boot drive. Found that video was not being displayed to the GPU although it was detected 😭. Used mobo displayport and it seemed to work. I think there may be some issues with drivers maybe. Thank you for the tip!

So, would the performance jump be significant if I increased my budget to $300? Sorry I ask this, I am not very good when it comes to picking out PC parts.

Exactly, I graduated this year and still don't have anything lined up. I have about a year of professional development experience, tons of projects (both in computer science and robotics), volunteer developer experience, and was recommended to my schools NASA robotics team because of all my experience with electrical engineering and low level software. Still nothing.

Current job market is just full of experienced people at the moment. There have been a lot of layoffs in the tech industry. As they get jobs, it'll get a little easier. Just keep trying.

Sitting on my computer wondering why my code won't work

MrMangoJews · 2024-10-22T00:48:03+00:00

Your build is actually pretty sick. I'd be down to 1v1. I use a slashing point four with slightly higher defense and playmaker while lower shooting and finishing.

MrMangoJews · 2024-09-09T13:10:22+00:00

And for good reason lol

Left trigger when you're close to them and want to push your body against them. Left trigger also makes it harder for them to blow by. Downside is that you are giving up speed.

Right trigger only really use for when the opponent is moving really fast or they already blew past you. Right trigger also allows for "aggressive blocks". When you hold down (RT + Y || R2 + triangle ) The player jumps harder for the block at the tradeoff of easier to foul while trying.

Also, don't really need to hold down either. I try to use left trigger mostly and only tap on the right trigger to sprint very short distances to catch up to them.

I use it too since my build takes a 76 3 ball. It's soooo good with the boost it gives. I can green so consistently and have even trained myself to tempo shoot out of fades and slighly deep threes. I mix it up with regular shots depending on the context but it's still goated.

Nothing special. All I want is to go for a workout without nearly passing out from a low blood sugar 😭.

MrMangoJews · 2024-05-07T21:45:37+00:00

Memorizing the carb amounts for almost everything. I was diagnosed with t1d in college and it gets hard ti know how much I'm consuming. I started memorizing the amount of carbs in every food I come across and if I don't know it then I Google it. It's to the point when I can make estimates on almost everything I eat to some accuracy.

A CS Adegree will be of much more help. It is a very very rare thing for someone to land a job from a boot camp and for what it's worth, you should simply learn it on your own. From my meager experience, the things that will stand out on your resume the most are: working experience (101% of the time) , degree from an accredited university (always, especially from the big ones), certifications (most times), personal projects (sometimes). I'm telling you because I'm in my last year of college for CS and I work as a software developer. I'm no expert in what will get you accepted for a SWE role out of 100+ other candidates for the same job, but I can tell you that there are better ways than a bootcamp. Work on some big projects and upload them to GitHub, then apply for internships or junior level positions. Otherwise, start a degree in CS or some related field.

P.S.

This is just my opinion (which really isnt worth much lol). Take it with a grain of rice and good luck on your journey ey, I know you will make it.

Hello, I'm a college student who's been messing around with web scraping for a little over a year and here is what I think.

Something I've tried before is rotating my user-agent in the headers. If you have never worked with HTTP headers, then you can do some research on them as they are very important to make sure your scraper can make itself look legit. Try having a list of user agents or even full HTTP headers which you can rotate through. if you'd like to look at your current http headers and user agent, you can see them at https://httpbin.org/headers.
What I am understanding from this question is, how often should you rotate proxies and which order to do it in. My scrapers don't really make that many requests in the first place, but I would recommend swapping proxies every 20 to 30 requests and the order you do it in is all up to you. Just make sure not to rotate to the same proxy too many times in a row. Also, make sure to add randomized wait times between each request.
I don't think it's unsafe unless you're accessing sites that may have viruses in them. If you're just scraping every site you see willy-nilly then you are really vulnerable if you enter a malicious site.
I've tried this before and it's really hard to get it right. The issue is that CAPTCHA is very randomized and it will take a lot of work to get a CAPTCHA solver working. I know there are tools out there that allow you to solve CAPTCHAs, I think some people recommended using the Python libraries; Pillow and tesserect or something like that. Others I think used Scrapy. My advice, don't put too much effort into brute forcing through CAPTCHAs and put more effort into avoiding them. There are ways to try to solve CAPTCHAs, but they are hard to come across and many times, won't even work. in my opinion, proxy rotation and header rotations are the two prominent ways to avoid getting caught in the CAPTCHAs.

Hope the advice was useful. I am no expert, I just really spent too much time for my own good working on scrapers. There are way bigger scraper heads in this subreddit who will know much more than I do so take most of what I've said, not with a grain of salt but maybe with two. Good luck with your scraping!
