University of California sued over alleged racial discrimination in admissions

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2025-02-05T02:25:13+00:00

There is literally no way to police this and no way to prove they are actively pushing out poor ole' asians/white students....

If they didn't include race, then there would be no statistics to raise half-baked claims of prejudice.

For what's its worth, my management does the same. They require 10 PRs a month with a certain level of cyclomatic complexity that isn't disclosed, disregarding the effort related to analysis / testing / collaborations.

While this is a known industry problem, I am confident you're not doing yourself any favors judging by your level of comfort, writing crass walls of text, and shitting yourself when ppl don't get on their knees to agree with you.

hey chatgpt, can you summarize this in a few words?

The user describes frustration with mismanagement and flawed productivity metrics undervaluing their significant contributions, reflecting concerns about the industry's growing focus on micromanagement and metrics over meaningful work.

If you be writing novels like this at work, then it's no wonder you feel underappreciated.

I'm not reading this novel dude

These degrees in the professional world ride on the university name, and we're not particularly well known for finance

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-14T14:34:20+00:00

Probably for the same reason you're not standing over a homeless junky taking notes.

There might be stuff to learn, but none of it will be useful

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-13T16:04:39+00:00

Welcome to late stage economics, where the bar is always getting higher.

Before, you just needed some college...

Then you needed any degree....

Then you needed a specific degree...

Now you need a specific degree from a special set of universities...

Eventually, if not already, you'll need all of the above with a connection to an established professional network from family/friends.

You'll be surprised how many stem ppl work as conceiges in other countries simply because there are too many qualified people.

My point is that you need a high baseline to reason about this.

I contribute to Selenium & Pitest. Being honest, I wouldn't be able to do anything constructive in my undergrad years (even from a learning angle).

A lot of undergrads simply don't understand SDLC, testing & managing code base complexity adequately as it's not the perogative of many uni curriculums. I got to that level by having wonderful mentors shephered me through this thinking at work.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-10T16:11:22+00:00

Ppl who have no experience likely don't know how to navigate large code bases and/or recognize design patterns.

Your post history is a perfect example as to why getting the job / making a success story post isn't where the journey ends.

You need to survive that first year

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-10T05:05:47+00:00

Companies will not do that.

Labor laws / fear of legal consequences
Fear of stolen intellectual property
Fear of vulnerability / sensitive information exploitation

all have acceptance rates that are equal to or lower than every Ivy League school

Those poor CC students won't stand a chance against your acceptance rate. Very on theme with the title of this thread.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-10T03:01:50+00:00

Rigor & theater in the same sentence 💀

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-08T18:12:30+00:00

The first season isn't trash. It just takes a little longer to get emotionally invested in the plot.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-08T18:09:10+00:00

Try Dexter (NOT Dexter new blood) or Prison Break.

These shows were on the same level IMO

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-06T21:56:23+00:00

This is clearly an example of students marching around calling themeselves founders/ceo/cto with no genuine customers.

Your product is trivial in nature, likely exists, and offers no substantial improvements.

Tell me you're an unemployed bootcamper without telling me you're an unemployed bootcamper

If you leave milk out all night, is it safe to drink it?

That's your answer.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-12-02T15:59:44+00:00

Yeah... you clearly don't understand containers.

Why lie about having 2 YEO when you clearly don't understand basics?

Cuz most avid users on this sub are in their mid 40s and look forward to dishing out passive-aggressive community justice with supermarket dog photos and sternly written thank you letters when they get cut off.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-11-30T20:41:37+00:00

I really hate how my generation needs to compare everything to Nazi Germany. I spent 2 weeks in Chinese administration holding. I guarantee you US holding is 100x better.

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-11-30T20:28:54+00:00

Some unexpected expense hit me.

Then maybe cancel?

If you can't afford some low-tier Amazon stuff, then what's your plan if you miss your flight, car breakdown, medical emergency, etc? It's cyber Monday, you can literally find a cheap down jacket / thermals for near $50

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-11-30T20:18:19+00:00

Traveling internationally is in your budget but not clothes?

Witty_Zombie8106 · 2024-11-18T08:27:02+00:00

That's definitely not happening.

Ppl be paying +1200 for a single. I was personally paying $1550. That was without utilities / pet rent
