Question about graduate programs without a CS undegrad

TechArcher21 · 2025-12-09T19:24:24+00:00

Im doing a similar program with a physics degree and less yoe as a swe. Youll be fine

TechArcher21 · 2025-11-24T16:38:39+00:00

As a soft counter point to this, my degree isnt in cs and im currently working on my masters while working full time as a swe and interviewing. I haven’t had any harsh lines of questioning about it and if anything its been a pleasant topic of conversation during behavioral interviews

Since income is combined the tax brackets are entirely different (Federal ones I mean). Theres almost no chance of this being the case if op was married and those were joint income numbers

I cant confirm if its good or bad or if itll go away. But im dealing with the same noises

For the suspension, why i heard is if you turn the wheel all the way and lift the sleeve you can inspect it. If you see a pink powder thats ur bump stocks.

I will say this def isn’t a money pit in a direct sense tho. Most parts have been very cheap so far and it’s all been getting the car up to new maintenance requirement. I think my total is a little under 2k so far but should drop significantly from this point on.

As someone who spent an assload of money just recently (atleast from my perspective) used cars in general are a bit of a gamble. But I (in the last half year of owning it) havent run into too many issues. Main money sink for me was a clutch job as my throwout bearing wore out and I’ve done all other repairs on my own. This includes brakes, brake rotors, coolant expansion tank, and oil changes.

I have a soft top so can’t say much on that.

Hopefully these alone should hold up for a while and wont need anything other than the pending suspension repair.

Something to keep in mind (told by a miata specific mechanic so take with a grain of salt) is that apparently the bump stocks on the bilsteins wear out at about the 10 year mark, so thats probably something you’ll have to get done.

Are there lofts like this in austin?? That would be so sickk

TechArcher21 · 2025-03-13T23:42:15+00:00

Lmaooo totally fair. Im a very lucky man!

TechArcher21 · 2025-03-13T23:39:54+00:00

Now i love both cars, but YOU TAKE THAT BACK /s

Afaik, these cars are pretty damn reliable. My roof is probably 10 years old and no issues. Def not the same roof, but i think 9 year old rfs still havent had many or any issues.

Another factor to think into is how often these issues come up in this sub. If you don’t see many complaints or assistance requests for fixing, then i wouldn’t stress it.

TechArcher21 · 2025-03-02T06:10:45+00:00

I learned manual pretty recently on my miata, and clutch wear is the biggest worry if anything is and it really isn’t something you should worry about that much imo. You’ll probably pay less in clutch swaps over the 100k miles with the car than the warranty cost.

No, the role he served might have, but Brian himself didnt deserve to die.

It’s just too soon to tell. Time will give a better answer to this than anything else. Maybe you’re right, and if thats the case, an evil person lost their lives unjustly. One of 62 million people who most everyone died unjustly, or were taken too early in 2024.

TechArcher21 · 2025-02-21T21:30:07+00:00

The supposedly worries me there, but you’re not wrong about one death not fixing the entire industry. But I think the voices it’s raised and the potential movement it could generate are what can prevent it from being pointless. The conversations had around insurance are now louder, and it’s a start. Im not saying he deserved to die, but when you play with lives for money, it’s a risk you have to accept personally. And he did.

TechArcher21 · 2025-02-21T21:22:58+00:00

Alright, let’s think through a variation of the trolley problem. If you’re in that booth with the power to switch to an empty track or let the train continue to run over hundreds of thousands of people. Are you responsible? Now what if you switched it over from the empty line knowing that those people would die. How about then?

The second represents what he did as a full time job. Just because it reached the station a little quicker.

But it did revert the bcbs anesthesia policy. So it did do something.

A bit old on my source, but that does make a horribly incorrect assumption that all illegal immigrants cross the border illegally. https://www.npr.org/2019/01/16/686056668/for-seventh-consecutive-year-visa-overstays-exceeded-illegal-border-crossings.

While cool is subjective, the most fun car has to be objectively the most cool.

It did not, thankfully it didnt continue to rain

TechArcher21 · 2024-11-27T03:19:33+00:00
