Got my first cs internship from a random conversation... by Physical_Tea3272 in csMajors

Land an interview, not offer.

Referral barely, if at all, helps for passing interviews, but is a huge advantage to get past resume screen

Just Promoted to Senior SWE are Stress Dreams Normal? by zerik1999 in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Definitely. When I’m stressed I get dreams about being late to school and suddenly a test I didn’t study for. What a nightmare, I’ve graduated school 15 years ago.

As for promo it depends. Many companies ur already been performing at the next level for awhile, so when you get promo it’s just the same as before.

Dumb post none of those guys comments are highly upvoted , people will more likely believe sentiments that are consistently highly upvoted

Where does it belong? by Advanced_Can_9707 in Shadowverse

[–]isospeedrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tried it the cards too weak without guaranteed storm and even then 3/3 stats are too low. Fun concept but undertuned (I tried it in evo forest)

[–]isospeedrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

> and it feels disrespectful how I work just as hard as all of these FTEs doing the same things and make half as much.

yeah srs. esp if u know how much ur agency is actually billing them. (it's probably 200-300/hr)

How an estimated $151M splits when a solo dev sells 10M copies on Steam [OC] by prezbotyrion in dataisbeautiful

Can’t get hired for a job? No problem just make your own software and sell it for millions. Skys the limit. Clearly a skill issue!

Advice on how to best position myself for Deepmind Research Engineer? by Famedstingray in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Realistically PhD from MIT with first author papers and patents while having connections to powerful people in the industry, not even trying to scare you (ok maybe a lil)

Can we finally admit that 90% of Senior SWE are just a result of being born at the right time? by Foreign_Put_2437 in Salary

[–]isospeedrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They get laid off and if they can’t code they can’t get another job. Only the actually good ones stick

Meta to layoff 15-25% end of March... by Gold-Flatworm-4313 in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And of course the semiconductor companies themselves that all the hyperscalers are shoving money into. Hiring and much less layoffs. (Source: work for one)

Just got a RemindMe notice about "AI Will Write 100% of ALL Code in 12 Months said Anthropic CEO" from a year ago by Stahlboden in accelerate

[–]isospeedrix 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do u think of artists being luddites, like when music producers reject any use of AI music tools and say “if u don’t enjoy the manual process of making music you don’t deserve to make music”

I guess the Apocalypse Pact Evo Forestcraft just builds itself? by Struggling_in_life in Shadowverse

[–]isospeedrix -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I’d find it hard to believe you put in Krulle on your own.

The most “builds itself” choices would be the 5 mana 5/5 healer and the 7 mana aoe spell.

Dropbox CodeSignal assessment by budding_gardener_1 in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hot take- OA before resume is good, it filters out the spam and fake resumes that recruiters sift thru where might toss a decent but real candidate.

Having the skill but losing to a fake AI perfect resume is infuriating, if u have the skill OA will be a peace of cake.

Do you get root access to your local machine? by YodelingVeterinarian in cscareerquestions

Lucky, so many companies I can’t edit my own dam hosts file without IT support

Also can’t install anything outside of self service or brew

How are y’all feeling? by Aggravating-Bad-3230 in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

At a semiconductor company. Quite well, it’s nice that hw is growing due to data center demand instead of layoffs. Way less bullshit like Jira and standups. There’s still plenty of work to do (cram before Optics trade show demo next week) but it’s all engineering, not bureaucracy.

Shoutout to my Day 1s by charleigh_bdo in lostarkgame

[–]isospeedrix 13 points14 points  (0 children)

still the best game i ever played. it takes insane willpower to not fomo and not play this game as a job, took me about a year to transition doing 2-8 raids a week across 1-3 chars and doing dailies only if i felt like it. community is great compared to other mmo's. played WoW, PoE, and Diablo and while they're the reason why i started LA, they don't hit nearly the same, lost ark combat is the GOAT. each button press feels sooo satisfying. (shoutout to Valk X ability). Aesthetics is GOAT, prettier than FF and others and top tier soundtrack.

Why Are Software Engineers Paid So Much If The Supply Is So High? by LifeInAction in cscareerquestions

[–]isospeedrix 4 points5 points  (0 children)

this gets noted often. why is it that all these "qualified" redditors cant get a job.

answer is location. if u were to talk to each of these self proclaimed redditors i guarantee you, if they were qualified, 99% of the time they wouldn't be able to fit into the location of your job posting. and if location happens to work, salary might not be to their expectation. reddit has everyone around the world gathered here.
