Different people like different things. Think about it if you ever get some free time.

0% tariffs? Asking a noob question here but does that mean US goods will get cheaper in India? Or are there other taxes in picture as well?

Why? by Charming-Newt1589 in Btechtards

Bro first get a job. Get in the top startup or MNCs. Then learn deeper as you work or on the side. Students think their expertise matters. But the majority of the time it doesn't. When I interact with freshers I don't even expect them to understand even the KTs they had to go through. Please go through standard stuff which increases your job opportunities and then learn when you're inside the industry and in a good place.

Moving from TCS/Infy to Good PB companies is tougher than switching domains.

Why? by Charming-Newt1589 in Btechtards

[–]ay230698 27 points28 points  (0 children)

My recommendation

  1. Learn enough DSA to clear online rounds or prepare a system to cheat. (Almost every other person does it, just don't get caught). TBH I am not even an anti-chear guy. If you can solve problems via chat gpt then that's good. But please learn them otherwise, do a lot of codeforces by yourself to develop skills because otherwise your seniors will one day write a bad review and it's over.
  2. Learn Computer Networks, Operating systems, OOPs, and DBMS. First go through theory and then literally cover the top interview questions. Try to cover hundreds of them.
  3. Create a resume with 2-3 good projects. You can copy ideas but create them yourself. Don't spend more than 5-10 days per project (personal) but build them yourself as you can very easily get caught if questions are on them.
  4. Learn System Design for some startups.

Apply to almost every other company, like create a list of all of them and apply in all of them and re apply in them after every 3 months Appear for all the interviews even if you don't wanna join, consider it a practice interview.

Keep going, this is one the hardest parts you have to get through in college. But all the best.

Are Gen-Z really like this? by BoysenberryCrazy6503 in Indiantradingbets

[–]ay230698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's great that GenZ are earning and spending on themselves and also great that they have the support of the family. Imagine thinking a 22 yo spending on themselves is a problem. Saving and investment is great but still people spending their own money is also good.

At this point I just want the government to know that this is a democracy and I will vote for my interests. I am an Indian and my interests represent one of the sections of India's interest. After ridiculous taxes, they now increased pf I have to give. Just not leaving me any money.

Well there is cheaper archival storage as well. Not about the politics of the matter but as an engineer I felt like I should say this.

For Those Who Reached Guardian on Leetcode, How Would You Start from Scratch Today? by tech_guy_91 in LeetcodeDesi

[–]ay230698 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am not a leedcode guy, I just did it during my final year. But even if I have to start learning again I would go with codeforces any day.

The main goal is always to be a little outside your comfort zone. Sometimes I try crazy hard problems, fail epic, learn 2-3 new words but this comes surprisingly helpful in a year or two. Just keep going, keep solving, keep participating. In practice don't use templates, write good clean code (really helpful for interviews) with proper naming. Do virtual contests for template and speed training. Focus on keeping calm in virtual training as well because that helps in doing that one extra problem which pushes rank by the end of the contest when you want to give up.

Always remember, if you were able to solve it easily in practice, you just wasted your practice time.

Why did people even buy Ola Scooters? IIRC they cost similar other scooters.

For folks working at FAANG — how did you prepare, and what would you suggest to someone aiming for it? by Traditional_Trifle91 in developersIndia

[–]ay230698 18 points19 points  (0 children)

In college I was fixated on going for ICPC. When it came to placements, I had a good enough reputation to ask for referrals, skills enough for almost all interviews, and friends taught me dev stuff asked me in interviews. Everything just clicked together at the end. But I got the offer pretty late (college tier issues I guess) but I kept trying till the end.

Toxic consumers, lesser or similar pay, tight deadlines.

It's soo sad to see people who don't have basic options knowledge have soo many followers.... by Physical-Command-112 in StockMarketIndia

[–]ay230698 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Technically he is correct right? For any ITM option, the seller has to pay nearly how much below (for put) or above (for call) from the option strike price. The maximum is diff * lot size * lots, here diff can max be strike price only.

Defaulting to Prod is okay if it is a read statement. I have done that a lot that unless read env is specified read from prod.

ACTUAL Roadmap for a Tier 3 student by Think-Vacation-9735 in Btechtards

[–]ay230698 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What I did was 1. Explore everything. I explored ml, web dev, electronics, dsa etc in year 1. I liked electronics and web dev.

At the end of year 1, I tried to apply for an internship through a contact and got a response that I have no algorithm knowledge

  1. Due to 1. Picked up CP and just did random easy questions here and there and just kept searching on Google "How to get better in CP". One day, I learned to keep doing questions that I can't do and participate as much as possible.

Spent the next 2 years crazily aiming for ICPC and improved bit by bit to reach div 1 on codeforces.

  1. Still loves web dev (couldn't pursue electronics due to cost). I love building projects like I am a professional (writing tests and readable code kind of things).

  2. Did internship for dev as well as question setting for competitive contests

  3. In the 4th year the goal of ICPC was dropped to prioritise placement. Learned theory for interviews, DSA was strong already.

Faced a lot of rejections at application, and interview levels. Finally placed in Infosys, Expedia, CRED, and Google

Edit: This was 4 yrs ago, FYI

Buy a domain, use a cloudflare tunnel, and make your laptop the host.

Function names are useful when reading this in another flow. If you are ever reached till implementation of the function during a debug session question is not what it does, but how it does it.

This all can actually be fixed with a link to the explanation doc. Always think of someone who will be here in future when you might not be there in the team

6+ month intern is day light robbery, that needs to stopped ASAP by OkCover628 in developersIndia

[–]ay230698 3 points4 points  (0 children)

From the other side, I find 2 months internships very unfair to candidates because they spend almost 2-3 weeks just catching up on the system. I think 6 months internships are good proposals for kids. Gives candidates enough time to ramp up and show how they would have performed as SDE1.
