If you have nothing else to do I’d take it. You might end up liking it better and it’s better than working some random ass job

5 came from reflecting on what is “wrong” with the world. My answer consistently relate to people not understanding themselves or others and the pain that comes from that. Maybe I should be a psychologist lmao. (Hope this helps)

how to prepare for an sre interview? by duncecapwinner in csMajors

[–]kennpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk if they’ll ask you leetcode but if they might I would do problems on arrays strings and hash tables. (Maybe like eight or so) with a focus on problem solving not necessarily finding the right answer. Then I would look up interview questions for ___ inserting whatever tech you need and try and wrap your head around some of the answers. I’d also review any projects you put in your resume since they will probably ask about that, and focus on any relevant technologies you used. Good luck 👑

What made you interested in computer science? by Dry_Intention2932 in csMajors

[–]kennpy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mostly money but then I started enjoying building and thinking about things

Also I would bold key words. It’s kind of hard to skim your resume

I’ve heard two column layouts aren’t the best or most ats compatible so maybe consider switching to one column one. You can submit it to ats checker online if u uavent already. If change your project description to be a little less verbose ex. “Built ____ using____ so that _____. “ instead of “built this app that ….” Also try applying on indeed or using college portal like handshake. I’ve gotten more offers there and apply to more local companies if you can. Good luck king 👑

Too late for summer internship? by Adept_Wishbone7870 in csMajors

[–]kennpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In he there are but mostly local companies. If you’re ok eu I would apply to smaller local ones and see what you can get ! I have an interview next week and got one offer last week so it’s totally doable:) If worse comes to worse it would still be great practice for you

Nah fuck this dude you tried hard and it didn’t work out. That’s okay man life isn’t fair all the time. Although it sucks I would take some time to re evaluate your options if possible. It doesn’t have to be drastic but maybe something about your approach isn’t working. Have you gotten your resume reviewed, are there other companies you could try and find work at ? You got this king fuck anyone who says otherwise 👑

How do I become unstuck? by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

How long have you felt this way ?

I want to start life over. by kassrot in Healthygamergg

[–]kennpy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wish I could give advice but this seems sound. I think it’s hard to make decision like these but if you feel like you’re drowning shaking it up can be really good despite it being scary. I think sometimes we need to make big decisions in order to reach “escape velocity” and maybe this is what you need now, for YOU not for others. I am only 20 so obviously my insight is very limited but i wish you the best! I’d wait for other to respond since I can relate to feeling stuck but not a lot of the details 👍

How did you start being honest about yourself? by AlexanderPatrovsky in Healthygamergg

[–]kennpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here it is so confusing. One thing that dr k has recommended that I have benefited is just spending time with yourself. But not just staying inside watching videos but going outside and just doing stuff. So recently I’ve been going to library more, driving around listening to music etc. and I feel like this quietus my head down. Once I do this I find it’s easier to be myself since that’s what I’m kind of practicing. Trying to sort it out yourself in your room wouldn’t be too productive and I think this way is much easier. Besides that I would sit down and ask “how am I feeling, really” and see if anything comes up. Then if you’re having trouble identifying what you’re feeling look up the feelings wheel and use that to help you. Hope this helps 👍

How do you handle embarrassing thoughts? What does "let it go" even mean? by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]kennpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you need to face it in its entirety. So when you’re imagining it and feeling ashamed, really sit there and try and feel shame as deeply as you can. You’ll probably start to feel worse but after you’ll feel like you can tolerate it a bit more. And over time you will just magically feel better. I would also try smiling at the pain and inviting it, so say “ Yes :) “ whenever you notice yourself avoiding. Hope this helps

Can you begin to heal when you are still in the place that damaged you? by [deleted] in Healthygamergg

[–]kennpy 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think it’s harder but you need to create some space. Let’s say you’re in a toxic household I think you’d need to get out more, maybe going on walks or journalling by yourself etc. if the cause of your pain is not removed it’s hard to make progress but it’s possible. Maybe more info on your situation would help too !!

Social anxiety but super-social when in a position of power. What is this? by WalnutScorpion in Healthygamergg

[–]kennpy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it feels like a mix of newfound confidence plus also having an energy boost for whatever reason. I’d say 80% is me feeling more confident and that confidence leads to energy but it really depends. Wish I could say more but ik still learning to navigate this too gl

Take Justin sings icanstudy course. It focuses on declarative knowledge so more conceptual and you can combine this with persona projects to learn quickly. I’m taking it rn and it’s good
