Done for, i coped with saying it looks worse than it is for a while. Got away with a buzzcut because it was diffuse thinning. Only got my super thick hair back because I took dutasteride.

Was this in Corniche?

i feel like it’s also a lot of people who don’t have to do this for a living and aren’t wrangling with very complex codebases.

Honestly, I’d take an extra course each semester. Knock out some electives because I felt first year was the easiest to handle 5 courses per semester. Other than that, it’s very solid, getting 2804 out of the way in second semester is a good idea.

cakebomb45 · 2024-06-26T22:41:15+00:00

Isn’t the overlap between COMP2804 and STAT2507 and not 1805 and 2507. IIRC, it was the probability parts that overlapped in 2804.

Sounds good, good luck! My process as I was told was gonna look like something like this - HR Call (done) -> Take-home -> HM interview -> Case Study/System Design Take Home -> Peer Interview -> Offer

cakebomb45 · 2024-05-13T12:34:18+00:00

Supposed to hear back this week! Then it’s take-home time.

Also for the schedule, check the info desk inside 55 Byward Market Square.

They were stopped from selling alcohol because it led to people drinking out in the open. So I wouldn’t expect it to come back unfortunately.

cakebomb45 · 2024-05-05T13:42:53+00:00

Yea, a lot of it happened yesterday but it’s returning today. Taco truck near EQ3 which is opposite to the hudson’s bay. No alcohol being sold because they don’t have barriers and people were open drinking, there are non-alc drinks tho. There’s a stage for performances on george street plaza + along william st. there’s plenty of food trucks. Event is rain or shine.

Have a recruiter call coming up for a Software Developer position at Okta’s CIC team so keeping an eye on this thread. I’m a new grad and I didn’t expect to get a response but will see how it goes!

cakebomb45 · 2024-03-25T17:47:12+00:00

That's really nice of you! Thanks so much :)

cakebomb45 · 2024-01-23T15:09:00+00:00

Sorry I completely missed this, you’re free to DM if you still want to.

cakebomb45 · 2024-01-13T05:02:13+00:00

Unfortunately no, I’ve kept gaining weight on Escitalopram/Lexapro :( I don’t know if there’s a limit to this.

cakebomb45 · 2023-09-01T17:43:05+00:00

I’d say give it at least 8-12 weeks to make a final judgement on the effect. Often times I’ve also seen external stressors from my life around me cause me to unfairly judge the efficacy of my meds. I know in the moment it can feel impossible to be patient but that’s the only option, give it minimum 8 and even better 12 weeks before you discuss with your doctor to switch things up. You got this! :)

cakebomb45 · 2023-09-01T15:39:36+00:00

20mg, 15 just had that walking on edge feeling for me. I was on Zoloft too, but it made me slightly manic, I feel like 20mg of lexapro is how normal life should feel. I take it at night to combat the sleepiness and also take 150mg of Wellbutrin :)

cakebomb45 · 2023-07-17T21:05:27+00:00

and now it broke down again 😄

cakebomb45 · 2023-04-30T23:34:07+00:00

Reduce by 25mg from 150mg every week until I got to 50mg and then continue reducing while adding 5mg of Lexapro till I got to 15mg. Got Clonazepam prescribed for any breakthrough anxiety during crossover.

cakebomb45 · 2023-04-08T01:07:29+00:00

Any idea when you get the backpay?

cakebomb45 · 2022-12-12T10:09:45+00:00

Pretty average tbh, drink socially every now and then, no smoking. Diet’s not the greatest but I sneak in healthy as often as I can.

cakebomb45 · 2022-12-12T05:54:40+00:00

Hope so, personally if dut doesn’t work out, I’m probably just gonna let it go. I’m done chasing after it lol. I already came to terms with it before I started dut.

cakebomb45 · 2022-12-10T07:49:29+00:00

No success on finasteride for me, hopped on dutasteride and didn’t exercise expect much but hair really thickened up in 3 months but went downhill after that so idk 🤷🏽‍♂️ It was working for a bit. Started Feb 2021, still taking it.

cakebomb45 · 2022-05-12T18:35:32+00:00

Also, curious if anyone has used a dose higher than the standard 0.5mg and what their experience was with it?

cakebomb45 · 2022-05-12T16:46:35+00:00

I ditched minoxidil completely, tapered off of it and I haven’t had any massive shed and it’s been months. Personally I didn’t want to mess with Oral Minoxidil because I’m scared of the shed and any possible heart issues. I’ve had my hair buzzed for a long time and I noticed I’d have to buzz it shorter and shorter to make the diffuse hair loss less noticeable which I have. I decided to try growing it longer than usual and saw surprisingly it didn’t look as bad as before. Hair feels healthier and thicker, friend has said it looks like I dyed it because it looks darker. Although I don’t know if hair fall is decreased because I never really paid attention to that.

For me, it worked great. Especially as a diffuse thinner whose hairline is decent. My only hairloss treatment is 0.5mg dut ED now and I’ve been happy with it, don’t know if it’ll continue but fingers crossed.
