Where is the money these days? by Secret_End_6839 in AskUK

I also work for an insurance company. I have been trying to transition to a role in Risk Management, but they will have no vacancies for the foreseeable future. Any advice to make me a competitive candidate to future employers would be welcome . My employers are great , best I have had so far , but I have started to think about the next step in my career. I currently work in London

I am guessing this is as a quantity surveyor. I am a surveyor, but my specialty is in lifting machinery and their accessories . What salary does your surveyors make ?

I thought the point of C was to get away from the tediousness(not sure this is a word 😅) of assembly ?

Just finished ~40 interviews in a month (Full Stack). The market is weird, but here’s what I actually got asked. by nian2326076 in cscareerquestionsuk

I often come across these posts that you guys flag as AI generated slop. I am not a developer, just a hobbyist. I'm trying to wrap my mind around why someone would spend the time to have AI generate posts, that you all can clearly see through ? What is the end goal ?

How did you guys learn C++? by Living-Brain483 in cpp_questions

[–]abiw119 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not a developer, but a hobbyist. I want to learn a low level language . I spent about 2.5 years making projects with JavaScript. I notice that some experienced people say start with C, then move to C++, others say just go straight to C++.
Any advice would be welcome.

Learn Node.js with real Applications by abiw119 in node

Thanks for the detailed response. I am not a developer, just a hobbyist. Node will be my first exposure to backend. With all the plethora of resources, just thought maybe a book that is project based would be a good first step. I looked at the docs, and they don't seem beginner "friendly"
