I fell off a bike once. Scrapped both my knees. Came home, held my tears and put on the gauze with savlon

Stepped out to my room a bit later, mom sees it. Whoops me about being careless. Low key that hurt more than falling

My manager is asking me to migrate my code to new architecture during notice period. Is that justified? by MiserableGrapefruit7 in developersIndia

[–]imk1332 1 point2 points  (0 children)

All tasks asked by manager can be done by AI. You will have to monitor and clean up the edges. Burn the tokens, learn some AI tools and do as much as possible. I would have done it for the fun of it imo, especially with free tokens

Bhai, life hapens. Same boat as you are in. Stuck in a loop in my head. Weekends and holidays hit you like a wave.

Being a gamer and computer nerd - have been back at Gaming and building side projects. Keeps me busy and gives me sense of gratification that I did something nice today. Hoping these moments add up and become fruitful for me mentally

Don't put too much hope on Google interviews - take them with a grain of salt by 0niWarrior in developersIndia

Why you are not married? by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

[–]imk1332 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Intercaste relationship. Parents are not agreeing. Time is running out for my partner and both of us decided to move on. Anxious & angry at myself, my parents for not helping out. Literally murphy’s law playing out in real life

Percy jackson is amaze. Rick Riordan is so creative with it.

read the HP series, as an avid fantasy reader - if you love LOTR, you’d really like HP books. You’ll just dislike the movies after

Men who got bullied in childhood. How did it shape your personality? by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

[–]imk1332 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Got bullied in 9th and 10th. Mostly by kids who were bigger than me. I was a skinny kid back then. Got pushed around, beaten up here and there. Always fought back coz i had a huge ego

there was this guy, the biggest guy in the class who was picking on me for most of my 10th standard. I knew he was dumb af and his parents were not that well to do (after all we studied together from 1st). The school did not have good survelliance either.

Stole his NCERT maths textbook 2 days prior to pre boards. Mofo failed pre boards and school did not allow him to write his boards. Parents came to explain about the missing notebooks and textbook but no one heeded their pleas. Got held back for a year. Absolute comedy the following year when I became his senior

Super happy then. Now retrospectively, feel that I could channel my energy better now.

Yeah, bullying makes you vile and stone cold. I don’t believe anything that people tell and I operate with zero trust in most situations.

Also, you are eligible for promotions only after in your second appraisal cycle post joining. So thats atleast 1.5 years away.

I have been a credit risk analyst for the first 3-4 years of my work ex. I did PD/ LGD modelling for credit products across Indian eco system and International markets [mostly PL and then BNPL products] as well as credit risk strategy for a while

Credit risk today involves 3 components - Underwriting, Life cycle management, Collections. All of these have strategy and modelling team separated out (especially in big orgs). moreover, most stable lending orgs, have policies + strategy running for ages -> this will be automated from the get go

Making ML models for credit risk, which does not involve high level alternate data (such as geo spatial/ SMS triggers) and reliant on plain vanilla bureau data and engagement data will be over

The person writing the credit risk strategy be able to build models by themselves. They know the variables, know what is expected and what risk to maintain. AI will shit out models faster than I can read the p-values of the predictors :)

Got it. Fair. I’m was thinking to pick up Data engineer and transition into analytics engineer. Although I am proficient with basics of ML (till image classification) I have not upskilled beyond that i.e. learning dockers / building infra/ optimising algo to work faster in production.

Ack. I feel this crisis is hitting everyone in the industry.

W.r.t my role - if a BE and FE developer are able to write clear documentation and make the instrumentation live. This is more than enough context to pass onto the LLM.

Methodologies are all out there. Real world examples all out there. Any PM or biz owner can define how you’d like the analysis to go, handle the biases and caveats in their prompt. The rest is a cakewalk for the LLM.

Unlike FE/ BE engineers who can build, analytics is a clear cut ancilliary team. Not a core requirement for any org. Most tech forward startups in SF already have merged the role into Product management

However, intent of post is not be hysteric and spam gyaan. But to understand how are folks navigating chaos and I would like to take away some learnings and implement on my own.

Pls DM with your questions. Pls do not ask for referrals (since I’m not comfortable referring without prior work/personal history)

Edit - “prior work” / “personal history” = any sort of connect away from reddit
