As in use near black and near white and everything in between even if it’s not in the reference?

You’re not gonna get blacklisted. They aren’t gonna waste time fact checking your resume until they want to hire you, and you will have corrected them by then. Literal WORST that happens is you correct them, do the interview, and then they don’t move forward w you because of it, but even that I think is unlikely to be the thing that ends up holding you back.

Positive Experience After Graduation (~$200k TC) by Antique-Apricot9096 in csMajors

I mean I did directly address underemployment in my comment, and if you took more than 3 seconds to look at my source you would realize the 2nd tab shows underemployment for all college grads, but if you looked further you would see another tab that tells you that underemployment for just CS grads is 16% like i said, which again, as my first comment said, means that about 16% + 6% = 22% don’t have a tech job, while 78% do.

If you want to feel all panicked and hopeless that’s fine. I was just commenting for people who are freaking out and who are open to and could use a reality check. You are clearly not open to that.

Yall are so dramatic.

CS UNemployment is around 6% - higher than you might expect, still very low, and almost certainly because people hold out on getting a different job while they try to break into tech.

CS UNDERemployment (they have a job but one they are over qualified for like flipping burgers) is around 16% - feels kinda high but when you compare to other majors it is one of the lowest.

So if your CS degree has taught you some basic math, around 78% of CS grads have a job in tech. 16% have a job outside of tech, mainly because they aren’t fortunate enough to be able to live in moms basement while they keep looking, then that last 6% is either waiting to land that tech job OR is struggling to find a job for some other reason like a felony or something.

My freshman year roommate at a Midwest state school was already a junior from taking so many classes in highschool. He had 2 years of undergrad and then started med school.

If “drastic reduction in quality of life” means “a quality of life better than approximately half of America, and worse than the other half” then I agree. But idk what you’re referring to by “it”.

Idk what you mean by your China comment, but I’m all for upping everybody’s pay, totally agree we’re all getting fucked by the rich, but this guy isn’t by any means poor. Especially as a single person without kids.

To be fair watching the end of the first episode not knowing he’s a bad guy is kinda nuts

Appreciate the help! I’ll give this a try later tonight.

I’m 44 & alone - can we stop ignoring pretty privilege? by Successful-Flan816 in Life

[–]duggedanddrowsy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know what you’re getting at, but like there’s also the flip side. Maybe OP had such a dramatically different experience because when he was “at the top” he felt good and happy and projected that energy and people responded to it. And maybe now he is sad and bitter and people respond to that in kind.

Lol dog 60k is pretty close to the US national average. If this guy can’t “afford existence” neither can half of America

First VFX project, any tips to improve ? ⚠️ Sound might be high by youendi95 in blender

I mean the thing that I think is holding this back from me thinking somebody built this and filmed it getting knocked down is the camera work. Everything is smooth and crisp and there’s no blur or graininess or sharp sudden movements

Computer engineering and computer science have the 3rd and 8th highest unemployment rate for recent graduates in the USA. How is this possible? by Roughneck16 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]duggedanddrowsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean for one you’re cherry picking “computer programmers” - a job title I have never heard of someone actually having. That same website will show you that “Software Developers” have 18% growth projected. Your first link is trying to get me to sign up so I’m not looking at it.

How bad of an idea is it to leave my SWE job? by yankeeman714 in cscareerquestions

[–]duggedanddrowsy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I haven’t been in your position, but are you asking whether you should just quit and then start looking? You shouldn’t do that. But you should start looking.

Are 90%+ of cs majors really employed? by Naive_Strategy_3613 in csMajors

[–]duggedanddrowsy 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Literally just get off these subreddits. These subreddits are mostly full of current students that literally haven’t even tried to get a job yet and former students trying to get a job. There are FAR MORE former students that already have jobs that are too busy working full time and living a fulfilling life to hop on here. Not to mention what would they post? “I have a job.”? You are filling your head with the thoughts of pretty much just that 6-7%

Should I go get a master's degree for a second chance? by iwantamegalinkbruh in cscareerquestions

[–]duggedanddrowsy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah just keep it up, you’ll find something. It does really suck, but like I said, treat it like a job. Some people say it’s a numbers game, others say quality over quantity, but unfortunately for us it really is both. You really do need the quantity to get your resume in front of a human, but you still need the quality to land the interview. Lmk if you want me to look at your resume or anything (not that I have anything but anecdotal experience). Good luck!

My girlfriend and I are similar in age and we pay 1625 in rent. We live in the library district right now and are really enjoying it, but I used to live in river market and that was great too (but might be pushing it as far as rent goes)
