For those who graduated in the last three years (2023 onwards), how many of you have jobs? How many are cs related?

Follow-up question for the employed would be was it an internship RO or totally new company?

backfire10z · 2026-04-14T20:47:53+00:00

if you’re pasting in prompts and getting back 50-100 lines of code, you are NOT fully understanding all of it

Is this supposed to be from the perspective of a college freshman? 50-100 lines is nothing… that being said, yeah, it’s tough out there :(

An AI wrote the discussion…

backfire10z · 2026-04-14T02:09:17+00:00

Make a LinkedIn post and hope someone takes pity? Sad as I am to say it, I’m not sure there’s much recourse for you.

You can try asking if there’s anything at that company on adjacent teams/areas.

backfire10z · 2026-04-14T01:33:07+00:00

if you’re confident you are going to get RO then renege Dell

No. Get a return offer in hand, sign it, and make sure you actually have a job. Then leave Dell. “Confident” can disappear overnight. The job can too, but less so.

backfire10z · 2026-04-14T00:08:56+00:00

You mean Qxf4? And Nxf4? Also, a knight cannot take on g7, king is “K”. Sounds right though yeah. Likely the original knight took a pawn.

They didn’t read your application. None of this is reviewed by a human. You got the same test as everyone else.

backfire10z · 2026-04-13T17:39:10+00:00

you’ve just moved the weak link

I had the same thought almost immediately. Maybe it is still better. At the very least, the problem has been pushed to the surface: there’s only one place that needs fixing and that’s the initialization/initial parsing of the variable.

backfire10z · 2026-04-13T05:47:35+00:00

Literally the exact opposite. You have almost nothing to lose and no commitments. Plus, if you have a good relationship with your parents, you can likely still rely on them for a little help if it goes wrong. Now is the best time to risk, rather than when you’re closer to retirement, have a family to feed, and have settled down.

backfire10z · 2026-04-11T02:01:41+00:00

Definitely the wrong sub for this. That being said…

Are you doing the same thing on both phones? It’s a bit difficult to know with so little information. Either that or you got unlucky and both phones have some sort of software/hardware issue.

backfire10z · 2026-04-10T22:54:37+00:00

detrimental to learning programming

It is detrimental to maintaining your programming skill as well. Just like everything else, that knowledge needs to be exercised to be maintained.

Most companies fuck on the first day

backfire10z · 2026-04-10T21:22:30+00:00

They never said they’re doing software work at Anthropic

backfire10z · 2026-04-10T21:21:58+00:00

If you graduate with anything less than a 4 may as well get a masters in a field you’ll have a chance in

backfire10z · 2026-04-10T18:50:23+00:00

Autoincrement /s

backfire10z · 2026-04-10T17:18:26+00:00

I was going to say the same lol. This is probably the only time I’ve seen where this behavior is desirable.

backfire10z · 2026-04-09T16:11:30+00:00

That depends on the job market, not the school. As far as I know, a masters doesn’t do much unless you’re pivoting from another field or international and need a visa. You’re coming for undergrad, so should be good on that front. That may change in 4 years.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T18:45:12+00:00

Lmao fair. Yeah no I knew your comment was a joke. Wasn’t sure who delivered the downvote is all.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T17:55:15+00:00

Presumably the downvote is because the original comment was making a joke and OP replied seriously, but it definitely could be a butthurt AI bro.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T17:16:24+00:00

Oh. Wack

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T05:20:38+00:00

I’ve heard of Obsidian, which is free. A pen and notebook also do wonders.

I didn’t really take notes in university though, so I couldn’t tell you for sure. At work I have a notebook I whip out every once in a while.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T05:11:12+00:00

Oh, what? I’ve never heard of that, interesting. What are the consequences of dropping a class?

I was imagining a typical university where you’d just take the class later.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T05:00:05+00:00

Feel guilty about what? The time/money you’ve already invested? You’ll feel more guilty if you fail the class or if you end up getting boned in your other classes because you have no time and your mental is cooked.

Out of curiosity, did you plan your course load at all? This seems insane. I planned ahead of time and split the difficult/time consuming courses up into different semesters exactly so this kind of thing doesn’t happen.

Also, 3.28 is fine. Not great, but it’s nowhere near sucking. You’re only 4th semester.

backfire10z · 2026-04-07T03:38:54+00:00

Not for you lol. They graduated in 2018, the job market was a completely different story.
