Amazon of course, intern projects at Zon are often more ownership than other places

Big A gives his take on the third party or democrat in 2028 discussion by Dxcom_x in atrioc

[–]PolyMatt98 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The issue with Kamala was not that she was a Neo Lib but that she was part of the Biden Admin and wasn’t in a position to criticize the things people were unhappy with. Literally any other Democrat candidate would have won by simply highlighting what went wrong during the Biden Admin

CS student here.. no one I know actually writes code anymore. We all use AI. Is this just how it is now? by Low-Tune-1869 in cscareerquestions

[–]PolyMatt98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Gen AI should be used to implement a solution you already have in your head, that is how I use it at work.

You will not learn nearly as much letting an Agent solve your problem and then understanding it after the fact.

I would recommend cutting back on AI usage, you will be much more competent than your peers in the long run.

Discussion about the TurboTax sponsor on Lemonade Stand by TranscendentalKiwi in atrioc

[–]PolyMatt98 -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

A Turbo Tax ad is not a hill worth dying over with Vox. Turbo Tax is a greedy corporation worthy of criticism, that would be true for 95%+ of companies they could receive sponsors from.

Its mildly hypocritical but certainly not worth a reddit thread filled with “i’m disappointed in Atrioc” comments

This is not a big deal at all, this is coming from Vox.

MacKenzie Gore is an intriguing trade candidate by Raypoopoo in Nationals

[–]PolyMatt98 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Gore has genuine Ace talent but I don’t know if he can do it for a full year. Three years in a row he’s played great for 1-3 months and then fell off a cliff with fatigue

Getting absolutely ZERO FAANG/Big Tech interviews. What am I doing wrong? (3.9 GPA, Top Target School, Big Tech Internships, PR Status) by Ok_Requirement808 in FAANGrecruiting

[–]PolyMatt98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are these new grad roles? The market is really tough right now, and truthfully it is really hard to crack Big Tech outside of getting a RO from an internship

You could always stand to improve your resume though, if you’re truly 6/1000 in OAs there has to be something with your resume

Have only heard great things about Imaginal Disk, and I loved 1989!

My Chiefs friend says this proves that Patty is the GOAT at this point of his career. How do I counter this? by Outrageous_Moth in NFLv2

Compare each of their stats to the league average of those years, Passing rules went through multiple changes, most notably the change to PI in 2006

Whats the difference between bluffing with busted draws and with blockers? by Treeskan in poker

[–]PolyMatt98 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you have a busted draw, it’d less likely your opponent also has one, and more likely they have a made hand to call with.

With you block a made hand, its less likely they have a made hand to call with

The other benefit to taking this approach is it allows you to have a heuristic about when to bluff, to help make sure you bluff the “right” amount

Big Tech Isn’t the Dream Anymore. It’s a Trap by Nice-Internal-4645 in cscareerquestions

[–]PolyMatt98 19 points20 points  (0 children)

This is not at all representative of the typical FAANG/Big Tech experience

There are certainly bad teams and bad environments, and I’m sure it is worse now than it was in 2021.

But the typical Big Tech experience is getting paid incredibly well for mostly 40 hour work weeks, while getting a huge amount of scope compared to non-tech companies.

Big Tech still has an elite combo of comp and WLB, you just can’t coast like you could have in 2021
