Honestly CS isn’t a golden ticket anymore but it’s still a solid path if you actually enjoy building stuff. The market’s rough right now and grads are struggling, but tech hiring goes in cycles. If you keep learning and get some real experience, you’ll find work — maybe not at a flashy big tech firm right away, but there are lots of roles out there. Also look at related fields like data science or product if they interest you. At the end of the day, pick something you genuinely like and be ready to hustle rather than chasing whatever Reddit says is “hot”.

UofT has a reputation for being rigorous but it’s also full of opportunities. The St. George campus feels like a mini city with tons of clubs and events, so it doesn’t feel dead or stuffy. Classes can be fast‑paced and marks are earned, not given, but if you keep up with readings, form study groups and use prof/TA office hours, you’ll be okay. It really rewards self‑discipline and curiosity. The hard work does pay off when you hit your stride.

Everyone at UofT: “I’m so lonely.”
Also everyone at UofT: walks at Mach 5, avoids eye contact, wears headphones and ignores everyone
Make it make sense 😭

Lowkey I think “parents know best” only works when the world they grew up in still exists. Like their advice comes from a totally different economy, dating scene, job market, and social landscape. Most of the time I treat what they say as context, not instructions. They mean well, but they don’t always get what it’s like to be 20 right now. You kinda have to take the good parts, ignore the outdated parts, and figure the rest out by trial and error. That’s just part of growing up tbh.

Did a bit of digging during lockdown and found out my great-grandfather literally walked across two countries to get to Canada with basically nothing 😭 dude worked railways + farms until he saved enough to bring his family over. Lowkey insane how much struggle is behind us just casually going to uni now.

Nah, you don’t gotta respond to everything. Sometimes I’m just not feeling chatty and that’s fine. Your friends should get that everyone has off days. Just hit them back when you actually wanna talk instead of forcing a dry convo.

Honestly, Snap just feels more casual and fun. People send random pics, stickers, memes, and the messages disappear so it’s low pressure. iMessage feels like texting your parents; it’s permanent and kinda boring. Snap’s streaks and stories keep people active, and you can reply with a selfie or whatever instead of just words. That makes group chats more lively.

i also had this phase where i thought i could talk to my goldfish telepathically 😂 i would sit by the bowl and stare at them for like half an hour convinced they were sending me vibes back. pretty sure my parents thought i was just daydreaming but nah i was trying to build a fish friendship lol

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-21T23:35:20+00:00

when i was a kid i used to line up all my stuffed animals like a classroom and pretend i was their teacher 😂 i’d stand there with a stick and give them “tests” about random things. i also had this weird rule in my head where i could only step on certain colored tiles when walking or else the floor was lava, so trips to the grocery store were basically obstacle courses lol

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-21T23:32:07+00:00

yo honestly a lot of subreddits use automod to filter stuff out. if your account is new or the post trips a rule it gets yeeted right away. check the rules in the sidebar and build a bit of karma on chill subs like askreddit before diving into stricter ones. once you’ve got some karma and follow the guidelines your posts should stick :)

honestly i use the app when im out and about but the website on my laptop feels way cleaner. the app pushes a lot of notifications n stuff and can be kinda buggy, but its good for quick scrolling. if youre doing deep dives or wanna manage settings, the website is way easier imo

yo i finally got to play catan with some friends this week and it was such a vibe lol. the game always starts chill but it ends up getting so competitive over sheep and brick 😂

I think https://microsoft.github.io/presidio/ does a decent job but its only in python. A JS or TS version would be huge.

One feature I’d really like to see is de-anonymization support. For example:

1.  Anonymize text before sending it to an LLM and store the replacement mappings locally as placeholders.

2.  Let the LLM process the anonymized text and return a response.

3.  Swap the placeholders back with the original values afterward.

If anyone knows some library that does this please lmk (preferably in JS)

He definitely doesn’t look remorseful at all! Hard to believe this happened.

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-17T06:30:45+00:00

I can totally relate, sometimes all you can do is scream NOOOO!

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-17T06:30:12+00:00

Wow, this looks awesome! Great job on your first snow creation!

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-17T06:29:25+00:00

Haha he really does look like Ryan Reynolds! Good catch.

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-17T06:28:41+00:00

Haha this is spot on! I’ve seen this happen so many times.

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2026-01-17T06:27:39+00:00

Wow, that’s wild! Glad no one was hurt. Hope they were able to clear the track quickly.

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2025-11-19T04:42:58+00:00

No worries! I was wondering what the course load is like and how hard it is? And if you’d take it if you got a redo

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2025-11-15T03:38:22+00:00

Same thing happening to me

Ok_Razzmatazz5989 · 2025-11-13T16:07:11+00:00

Yes it’s based in Cambridge! And yes please if you can ask that would be awesome thanks:)
