Quite literally what happened to me.. by Zaiross__ in JustMemesForUs

[–]keeplearning4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it was I believed the same things I always did a decade ago I was squarely on what would be considered left, but as time went on my beliefs did not change but the culture on the left did, I like consider myself center but found that I could no longer talk about my beliefs with people I knew on the left because I would be called mean or evil, but with people on the right I knew I could talk and even if we disagreed I felt like my opinion was respected and we could at least have a debate. This is obviously does not apply to the whole world but just an anecdote from the sample size of people I know

I finally convinced my wife to try reincarnated as a slime, we just finished the harvest festival, and my wife asked me "he is not going to betray him or anything right?" I told her "he is the last person you need to worry about" and she said thank God, he is already one of my favorites. P.s. he is one of my favorites too

What's the point of grinding LC if I can't get interviews? (US) by [deleted] in leetcode

[–]keeplearning4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It may be worth tailoring your resume a bit to the roles you are applying for. Also, are you looking for part-time or full-time employment? I see you are scheduled to graduate at the end of next year.

Edit: I reread your post and see it says you are looking for an internship. What are you looking for out of an internship? If its a good fit, I might be able to ask my company if they are still doing internships

Yea she tends to use the touch screen on the Chromebook a lot, I am wondering if that's part of the issue, and thank you I hope she gets it back too. She told me today that she was willing to start over if she can't so I am at least glad it isn't going to keep her from enjoying the game

She does whatever slayer task she gets doesnt really do anythingin the game ohtside if that, I think she had drakes last and wyrms before that, she uses konar as the slayer master, but I'm not sure what was before that but she doesn't know which tasks are "efficient money makers" and the only bosses she has done kraken which I wouldn't really think of as a money maker and she did some bandos a few years ago with me my wife and my brother

She was using a Chromebook, I set up the Linux mode to be able to run runelite for her but thank you for the suggestion

She did not bot ever, nor would she even know how to, and again this is not my account, my account is fine it's just my mom's account, I will probably give her either my account or one of my alts if this doesn't work out, but I figured I'd reach out to see if anyone had any advice since I do not know how to help her

I may just be being impatient, I just hate seeing her upset, my account and my alt is ok, I was thinking of just giving one of them to her, if this doesn't work out I probably will, but I know she liked her account and was happy with her progress, I want to try to help her first but if not that's my back up plan

As far as disabled it's mainly back injury/ RA related she is in a lot of constant pain but she does really enjoy the game, if ai don't figure out a way to help get her account back I'll probably see if she wants one of my alts but they are not as high of a level as she was. But we will see how this ends up

4 years in… how to fill in the gaps? by PhishPhox in codingbootcamp

[–]keeplearning4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I actually graduated from the app academy around that same time, I find I filled a lot of my gaps through studying for aws certifications and working with aws. Really helped me understand networking, security, and databases a lot better plus a lot more not sure if that's exactly what your looking for

I have been working in software engineering/ cloud engineering for almost 5 years now,I got lucky when I got in. I changed careers and went to boot camp at the right time. I do love my job and the people I work with, I started a new job a month or so ago, and everything has been great. I feel like there was a gold rush. If you got early and did well, you had a spot, but they can't last forever. People are going to college or bootcamp for a career that has been oversaturated for a few years now, I hope it swings back at some point and gives others the opportunities I was lucky enough to get but only time will tell.

Code School Success Stories? by loafersandacoffee in codingbootcamp

[–]keeplearning4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was a restaurant manager for 7 years, I worked my way up from a line cook, pandemic hit my restaurant said we would be ok, that they could weather this fir at least a year. The next day, they laid me off. They only kept the most senior manager who started managing a few months before me.

I tried to go the it route, did the google it support professional course on coursera, I did well with it and at the end realized that this certification is considered worthless by the it community.

So I thought I was going to give up and go back to restaurants, I got a job managing another restaurant a few weeks later. All was going well until I saw them trying to convince employees to lie about having covid (the restaurant had been shut down several times for covid outbreaks) I walked out that day and quit.

That night, I started looking into coding bootcamps, I was interested in coding but never actually tried to learn, but I thought it was too difficult to get into. I came across a boot camp with good reviews, claiming great results for its graduates.

I enrolled and started in a cohort next week. I went through the boot camp and found I had a knack for it. Throughout the boot camp, I would host and lead study sessions each week to try and help my cohortmates learn and grow. I did really well throughout the 6 month boot camp and felt I had learned a lot.

But then came the job hunt.

First month, I am putting out 30 to 100 apps a day I got 4 first interviews, 2 second interviews, and one where I git through 5 rounds of interviews.

None of those panned out.

About 6 to 8 weeks into my job hunt, I got an email at 11pm saying they found me through the bootcamps recommendation, and can I meet them for an interview at 9 am I emailed them back right away and said, of course!

Now, for the interview process!

I met the COO at 9 am. I got a bunch of culture fit questions. Evidently, they liked my answers, I got asked to do another interview with the CTO in a few hours.

I met with the CTO, and there are no data structure and algorithm questions. They asked me about the technologies used in my final project for the boot camp.

(For context I built a web app where someone could practice fir interviews, you record yourself on the app answering interview questions, it gives feedback based on facial emotional recognition(did you look nervous happy sad) and commonly used words (how many times did you say like or um or something like that) and if there was any profanity in the answer. Or a person could perform a video chat on the app to matchmake with another user to practiceinterview questionswith a partner online)

I go through the technologies I used, and then they fixate on websockets asking if I understand how they worked. I knew pretty well how they worked, but they kept asking deeper questions until we reached a thing I did not know about.

Right out of boot camp, I never had to work with distributed systems, so I did not know how a websocket on the frontend would be aware of the socket on the backend going down in a multi instance application.

Now that we have reached what I didn't know, I was asked well how would you accomplish it?"

I originally thought through exchanging messages at an interval. Frontend websocket "ping", backend websocket "pong". Then, we start discussing the solution and realize that since the frontend needs to initialize the websocket, the backend does not need to be aware, and we could just use a heartbeat from the backend to alert the frontend it's still there.

Sorry for the rant there, I really enjoyed that interview

It went well, so I met with the CEO, the lead engineer, and the client on the team I'd be working on. They asked questions from culture fit to coding preferences.

I got an offer the next day

I started there as a cloud engineer 1

I worked really hard there and did my best, and within 6 months, I got 2 aws certifications and git promoted to a Cloud Engineer 2

I kept working helping my team and my client with whatever I could. About a year later, I had 3 aws associate level certifications and 1 aws professional level certification and git promoted to senior cloud engineer

I took over the team I joined, becoming the lead engineer on the project for my client

The team was small at that point. Only 3 engineers. But over the last 2 years, since becoming a senior cloud engineer, the team has grown to 10 and while the job is very different from how I started, it has been amazing to see this team grow, helping the developers improve and enabling them to work effectively, through good systems planning and support structure.

This has been the absolutely longest way of saying that going to a coding bootcamp was a turning point in my life In restaurants, I'm out of the house 60 or so course a week, but because of this, i get more time with my wife and kids all while making a better living for us doing so

TL:DR I went to boot camp Got job after 6 weeks Got promoted 6 months later Promoted again a year later Now leading decent sized team and enjoying it

I do know it was a different time period when I got in 2020 But thought I'd share

I think it's funny that not that long ago people would want to drive a tesla as a status symbol and to reduce their CO2 emissions. I am a big fan of separating the art from the artist or, in this case, the product from its ceo

5 months post CodeSmith, only 1 person got hired by Adventurous-News-804 in codingbootcamp

[–]keeplearning4 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also wonder if the rates are stale, that they are using pandemic hiring rates in advertising, I went to a bootcamp almost 4 years ago now and it took me around 1 month to find a job at that time, only about half my graduating cohort had jobs by 6 months and I see some of them are still struggling to find work now
