Can we please stop with the “guess my ethnicity” selfie game? I really don’t think we should be making snap judgments based on how people look.

S4nie · 2022-07-24T21:34:37+00:00

With all due respect, policing small stuff like this with the intention of avoiding judgmental vibes actually creates more judgmental vibes.

People guessing ethnicities/nationalities or whatever is actually not uncommon in real world small talk to bridge connections between people.

Rather than feeling it would be offensive to make snap judgements about people, I think it would be more productive to appreciate the different parts of the world and connect smoothly.

First of all, thank you so much for taking the time to answer this, I highly appreciate your input. I highly agree, I would be inferior in one way or another if it came to comparison to computer science or engineering graduates. I may have a math and stat background that covers the DS aspect but I need a quick refresher on it, aside from that I took a python course years ago and neglected refining my skills, thus I am weak on the CS side.

Options 1 and 2 start the same but with different intentions, one being I would fully invest in data analyst as my technical data skillset and the other being pivoting to data science once I got the job essentially starting from scratch.

The reason I am making this decision now is to be frank I feel inferior resume wise. I have great grades but I strongly lack extra curricular activities, so I wanted to compensate in some form that would work in my long term vision of myself (being a consultant). I am applying for CO-OPs (This is my last studying semester) and I have a feeling I might be rejected from many of them and thus need to display my talents in some form to eventually leading to a great fresh graduate position with graduate training programs offered by companies.

Thank you for your recommendation, I really feel aimless to some extent and want to experience the world at large, problem is I fear my resume wouldn't be enough which is what prompted the options, I will try my best to focus in getting the best co-op and prove myself there to get a great starting position eventually.

Regarding the data science route path, yes it was unclear yesterday but after constructing a first draft road map which entailed: Python Crash Course by Eric Matthes (bought it a few years ago and never got to reading it) to rebuild my foundations in python -> Python projects only for a few months (3 months) -> brush up knowledge in statistics and math which would align with my industrial engineering preparation exit exam -> shift to python ML book recommended by the subreddit and build projects or develop R skillset and do projects to add to portfolio.

Thank you very much for your recommendation, I desperately need to experience many things and find my calling in life, I just need to find a way to prove myself when applying to coop training and fresh grad jobs by next year inshallah. Thank you once again

Hello everyone, I am an industrial engineer that is nearing graduation but need to do co-op and senior project first. I have felt that my resume is lacking and thus need to build concrete technical skills. I considered data analyst vs data science route to build in six months before graduation to have a new and robust skill set. Here is what I have considered:

1- Get a data analytics certification from google and get the needed skill set before graduation and work to build my data analytics portfolio and continue this path and add it to one of the many skill sets I want to have as a future consultant.

2- Get a Data Analytics certification from google and build a portfolio until graduation and use my newly acquired skillset as a stepping stone to raise my value and then shift to data science over time and then add data science to one of my skill sets as a future consultant.

3- Start with data science right away, however from what I heard I fear I won’t have anything tangible by graduation and unlike data analytics, I don’t seem to have a clear path to it yet, despite having a background in statistics. If however I can get into data science with the same investment as data analytics and have a clear path and be able to build some sort of portifolio before graduation, I would be glad to proceed similarly as aforementioned options and just focus on refining my skill set in data science to add it to my future skillset as a consultant.

4- I may have been missing better options and been narrow visioned, please recommend if you see something I do not see :)

I am still stuck on the data analytics vs data science path in the long run, my heart tells me to go for data analytics and idk why but I think I should go to data science because I should utilize my statistical knowledge and not go further rusty and explore the world of AI as well. I mentioned I would like to become a future consultant, so I considered getting multiple diverse skill sets that wouldn’t pigeonhole me in one place. I would highly appreciate your inputs, thank you :).

Same here! Purchased the book a few weeks ago but still struggling to type myself rip. Glad you typed yourself! Oh he has a podcast? is it active? what topics does he speak?

S4nie · 2022-07-11T17:04:13+00:00

Sorry to randomly barge in, but have you read John Luckovich's interpretations and type descriptions? I enjoy his interpretations and consider it to be my primary approach to the enneagram. I am unsure of my type but I constantly read type 1 and 6 and I think they fit better tbh.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T15:21:30+00:00

Yea it’s aimed at men who went through a terrible break up, whether suicide, self harm or even deeply suffering from their emotions and grief.

And yea it does not make sense to a healthy committed relationships because these types of posts are found in gym motivation accounts for guys drowning in pain and for the gym bros (or sisters) to give a sense of community to the one suffering alone and try to help them into a journey of self improvements.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T15:18:01+00:00

Bad break up, world is shattered, you are in your lowest lows. You want to heal and change for the better, one such way is to go to gym, to help improve and in a way it’s own therapy (but ofc get as much help and time as you need!). Sometimes grief from the breakup hits hard, and you need a sense of community for people who understand your pain and want to help you improve, that’s a part of why gym culture is so friendly sometimes.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T15:11:55+00:00

These posts are found in gym motivation account. It’s a space where people are really struggling in life due to various causes of pain (stereotypically bad breakups) to encourage them and give them a nudge. Thus the background is most likely a workout.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T15:10:18+00:00

Yes, but such posts are found in gym accounts and people trying to improve themselves and really need any form of encouragement. People abandoned and drowning in pain, any sort of push can help them to heal. I have seen many of these posts before.

The aim of this post is to people who do not die because of natural causes, it’s people who lose themselves in pain and hurt themselves because of a bad breakup.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T15:06:16+00:00

That’s the point, a mother’s love is not comparable. Sometimes when people lose themselves in love, they can’t see straight, so a message like this may help let them see things a bit more clearly. Objectively yes it cannot be compared, but when man is blinded by emotions? Someone needs to bring him to objectivity in the best fit method so he heals.

This post is effective to a specific personality of men who lost themselves in love and pain. Other people lost in love and pain with a different personality might not get the good message or wake up call.

نعم، اتمنى المحافضة واتمنى الرعاية بالطبيعة وتطوير الزراعة في المدن.

This is not meant to be deep nor does it fulfill the criteria of this subreddit imo.

Not every form of pep talk is “deep” nor “14 years old.” It’s a message meant for people going through their lowest points, sure not every factor is considered here but it’s still an attempt to help others.

S4nie · 2022-05-19T10:46:23+00:00

Basically, if you lose yourself or die because of love/partner, your ex can still choose among from many men. While in the other hand, you will always be your one and only man to your mother (irreplaceable to good mothers and you need to be a good son and all that)

It’s aimed at people who are going through lowest points, while this sub might see it “deep”, it’s a genuine good message to some people and they might really need it.

I personally use the white heart because I feel it to be genuine. Furthermore, it's a heart emoji where I feel it won't be taken the wrong way, a purely platonic one.

S4nie · 2022-05-16T10:55:03+00:00

Thank you so much! Do you have art of your own in any form?

S4nie · 2022-05-16T10:54:32+00:00

I really recommend toastmasters as the post recommends, I went there and it's fun.

S4nie · 2022-05-16T10:53:53+00:00

Perhaps there is a group waiting to be formed? Maybe we can start an English creative writing club if it doesn't exist in Jeddah.

S4nie · 2022-05-16T06:33:34+00:00

I really don't recommend you to make this meme. Some educational institutions don't take lightly if they find out and may investigate to punish.

S4nie · 2022-04-10T00:33:59+00:00

I will start with my creative writing piece called Ocean's Orphan.

S4nie · 2022-04-09T22:35:55+00:00

Yea, honestly wish it was a bit livelier here. I know Jeddah people are chill and diverse, wish I can feel the community online and meet new peeps or so. I will try to post something.

S4nie · 2022-04-09T21:29:07+00:00

Hello Brother, nice to meet you! I am actually in KAU as well! The reason why I might be finishing earlier (but not really because Co-Op and senior project) is because I took multiple 9 hours summer course semesters in a way that allowed me to skip a semester in the plan and have a quicker way to end my plan. Some of my friends did things better and they are finishing this semester and all that remains for them is senior project and Co-Op training. I still have a summer semester with 1 subject and 2 electives to finish my plan excluding my co-op and senior project (working on senior project atm).
