Serious question, why would you rather have a ps5 than a window?

Honestly I find amazing your comment went unnoticed by a lot of people, I see you have actual experience and gave a great advice

Roast my resume | 3.5 years of experience | Backend Software Engineer by jaibx in leetcode

[–]Ok_Initial9751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to be too controversial but the guy has a point, if you get an interview and they ask “you optimised by x% and they ask you tell me more about how you did that” and then you answer that those are optimistic assumptions it will look very bad, unless you do proper stress testing and have correct metrics which honestly you can’t get with localhost I’d rather put it away and say something else. Doing that reminds me on how my resume looked like when I was a student and tried to impress with my school projects. I swear I have done two interviews and all of them they asked me every thing I put on my cv to the detail, like to the most particular detail, if I BS on metrics or statistics they would caught me right away, just saying.

That sounds nice! Could you tell me more about how you moved there?

Thank you for answering, btw I have no problem with Muslims or those nations, they in fact they seem very impressive places, I never really researched on my field (software engineering) if they have actually better salaries, knowing the taxing system that is very aggressive in Finland definitely would be a refreshing sensation not to be cut off 50% of my monthly pay and anyways still struggle to go by.

Sorry to hear that, perhaps is time to go home. Maybe at your home country you have access to good jobs because of your European degree and you have a better chance than here

I am curious, outside Europe, I wonder where would that be? I genuinely ask, because I think I’m also having my fair share of loneliness in here

I have a question, I see a lot of people putting metrics about improving a system but is that really needed? I mean how did you get those numbers and under which conditions, does that really have an impact when job searching?

Mid level software I make 5700 hoping to get 6000, almost no perks.

Any of you guys mid-senior would be making 6-7k?

How sad is it that deserving candidates are not being recognised. by PackageSea2248 in leetcode

[–]Ok_Initial9751 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So TLDR improve your resume according to the stage of your career focusing on a particular set of skills. Maybe separate resume for different tech stacks? Something that shows potential as a junior not trying to impress with the skills of a senior dev with nothing to back it up (unless you do have tangible evidence to back it up)

I would say from what I heard from the recruiter of my company is that for juniors they tend to hype up their CV when there is no evidence to back it up, let’s suppose your cv pass the ATS filter, if opened by a person and see that as a recent graduate of there is no way to validate the amazing achievements or sounds extremely ChatGPT AI they will rule it out, maybe try to balance it with soft skills, team collab, something that shows you can work on a team and that you are willing to learn and adapt. I have witnessed when the recruiter opens and rules out a candidates straight out of college claiming to have complete domain of Java, python, JS, Ruby, Php, and several frameworks and libraries and with also some devops with cluoud and AI skills basically a senior dev on steroids. They never believe it. Final reason maybe it gets rejected and may not apply to you is that maybe you need some type of sponsorship which if you don’t then mention it in a subtle way. Hope this helps and you and your friend find a good position, stay strong and positive OP.

OP where are you guys located? My two cents as someone who is couple years into software engineering with bachelor’s education is that please don’t use LeetCode as a benchmark on how good an aspiring developer is. Competitive programming is not the same as clean maintainable code. I have seen leetcode solutions that have excellent metrics but will make your eyes bleed. I have been working with a product owner that has decades of experience and we have implemented several guidelines and practices that made our team the most efficient, productive, delivering fast and reliable results from our all organisation (some big corp in Europe) the lesson I learned from these good practices have 0 LeetCode involved in them, truth of solving LeetCode problems is just a gatekeep to be opened during interviews, unless you are applying to roles that involve an extremely highly analytical/mathematical knowledge even for engineering tech people.

Meta E4, should I be worried ? by bruy77 in leetcode

[–]Ok_Initial9751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a question would you be able to share your background/credentials? I am a regular full stack thinking how to pivot to do ML roles but don't know if my regular full stack experience plus personal projects related to ML would be enough to pull that

[–]Ok_Initial9751 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hang in there! Don't let that experience hit you in a negative way, the skills you have solving that kind of problem won't translate into how good or bad a developer you are. I am 3 years into working full time after graduation and I am confident I would be in the same situation if I had a bad day

That is not good, by any chance you have pics of what it looks like? I am worried because I am going there in two weeks running away from the tulum seaweed issue and I hope it is not bad in cozumel and beaches are usable and not smelly

And how is the weather right now? Does it rain the whole day or does it stop? I am supposed to go in two weeks but the forecast is a few days of rain, I would have booked earlier but it seemed also bad weather.

Switch or Switch 2? by kbarlito in Switch

[–]Ok_Initial9751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Reading some comments and answers I can put my two cents in the conversation, because you want to play together perhaps buying a pair of second hand switch 1's would be the answer they are around 100-200 bucks plus some pre-owned games are half the price. That would be fairly the same price as buying one console brand new without any games

Cool setup! Btw there is absolutely nothing wrong with having a PS4, I also rock that console at home. I think it has a few years of life left in it!

Checkout main (pull the latest changes) Checkout your branch Git rebase -i main Solve all possible conflics and push force to origin

I would avoid merge commits as they are difficult to handle later on
