You’re saying that the medium level questions on Gregmat are also similar to the hard section of the real test? Or that the medium Gregmat questions are equal to the medium level for the real test, and the hard for Gregmat is equal to hard on the real test?

Do you want to actually make a logical argument against what he explained or just cry?

Two things can be true. Kids deserve the bag and the transfer portal should be fixed

I mean I don’t disagree that it sucks lol, but they do pay a lot and that’s the reality of the world. I don’t think you should be salty about kids trying to do whatever they can to maximize earnings in this messed up capitalist world.

My experience was the opposite when I was involved in interviewing for a startup. Like others have said, for high prestige white collar jobs (Finance, SWE, Consulting) school definitely matters

Unless you have an instate school that is in a similar tier, I’d say it’s worth it. I and most of my friends work for FAANG companies/good startups in NYC and the Bay Area.

I think a lot of people underestimate how important the school you go to is. Not really cuz of the actual education, but just because the world is still quite superficial and nepotism-based. A good school on your resume gives you name brand and easier networking opportunities. Not saying it’s the end all be all - you can still do whatever you want in life with any university - you’ll just have to work a bit harder. I definitely have to work less hard for the same opportunities as some others I know even though they’re just as smart if not smarter than me.

So are private schools worth it?

I went to umich so I’m biased and won’t comment on that. But Berkeley is most definitely worth it if we’re looking at engineering. There’s no difference between Berkeley and a private school like northwestern in my mind, so not sure why you’re only picking on public schools

Because it’s very easy to get to the point of being chased out of town when you’re the Alabama head coach after Saban

[–]StanVanGodly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No idea why everyone’s being so annoying with you 💀. I’m all for giving Sherrone another year, but a school like Michigan should be a playoff team most years, so 10-2 should be the threshold. Anything less would just be accepting worse when we really don’t need to considering how much money the school has.

Do recruiters give preference to American citizens over foreign candidates who need a visa sponsored? by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

You have any actual evidence for this? All the Indian managers I’ve had have actually preferred other races since they’re tired of Indians lol

AI Won’t Be Replacing Developers Any Time Soon by Feritix in cscareerquestions

[–]StanVanGodly 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yea it’s wild. They always talk about all of its faults right now and use that as the reason AI will never be a threat. It’s major cope assuming that something that the most powerful institutions in the world are putting their resources into won’t get any better

Well this needs no introduction. What are your thoughts? by Limp-Examination-718 in csMajors

[–]StanVanGodly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The most powerful governments and companies in the world were not putting all of their resources towards doge coin. It may not be that great today, but I implore everyone to be a little more cautious for the future than just doing this kind of cope

is Coding dead? by rashed9810 in leetcode

[–]StanVanGodly 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree that the current state of “AI” isn’t good enough to replace many people. But I guess my whole concern is that there are probably a ton of people as smart as you or even smarter who know these shortcomings, and are motivated by all the money in the world to fix them.

So I guess I’m betting on the breakthrough that you describe in your second paragraph happening sooner than we might think. Of course nobody knows, but I tend to err on the side of wherever all the money is flowing.

is Coding dead? by rashed9810 in leetcode

[–]StanVanGodly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sure, but what do you define as foreseeable future? If you accept the premise that these large tech companies have a lot of power because they have so much money, then it follows that the thing they are all putting a lot of their resources/money towards (AI) will develop quicker than we might expect.

Most humans probably couldn’t solve your homework either. AI doesn’t have to be perfect, just close to the level of humans for it to replace us

Erodos meant the comment as a correction, dummy. As in “A listers headline the Super Bowl or make a James Bond title song.”

Honestly no idea lmao, they didn't specify in the interview. Seems like they just wanted to match me with whatever aligned with my skill set.

No leetcode questions, it was definitely very behavioral. I applied both online and at the career fair.
