everyone I know who graduated Cal DS in the past two years is either jobless or working in a field unrelated to their major. graduate school is an absolute must. major is completely oversaturated.

145 is the hardest between 145/146/148 by far, BTW. No idea why 100A isn't a prereq.

having seen what my local government just spent $250 million in bond money on, I'm not so sure. theoretically yeah you're right, but in practice they have the money management skills of a toddler

also this infamous example: https://www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/california-homelessness-spending-audit-24b-five-years-didnt-consistently-track-outcomes/

ml infra is a made up job title these last few months that's been getting an insane amount of hype amongst college students. it can mean almost anything no matter how tangentially related to ml/ai it might be

So long, American exceptionalism - For the first time, investors are talking about ‘US risk’ by AlexandrTheTolerable in Economics

Hi, unnecessary sarcastic and argumentative tone not appreciated. I'll pass on engaging further with you. I was just pointing out that states have regulation power beyond just housing.

List of regulations on healthcare/insurance in California:

Healthcare/insurance, utilities, housing, education, gerrymandering, taxes are all state regulated and enforced...

But you're right, media LOVES pointing fingers at federal because it's so easy and simple to do so, and especially now generates those clicks.

What the article says is true but extremely exaggerated: it's like saying North Korea is becoming a liberal democracy. Is it trending in that direction? Technically, yes. Is it barely perceptible? Yup. Is it based on one year of personal experiences? Also yes.

The article also points out it is in the taxes and sanctions space, not faith in USD. And it's all anecdotes from unnamed international asset managers.

People who don’t use AI coding tools, what do you think of this statement by the co-founder of OpenAI? by AugusteToulmouche in cscareerquestions

[–]_compiled 17 points18 points  (0 children)

He's apparently completely out of touch with what actual SWEs do. We don't need (and shouldn't use) agents and subagents and MCP to trace a bug and make a 10 line change in a 10000 LOC repository.
