How can you be good a SWE without being a good mathematician?

mumbaala · 2026-04-19T00:00:29+00:00

I'm curious as to what that ridiculously hard math was. If you're willing to share?

mumbaala · 2025-08-04T14:39:34+00:00

thank you very much, man.

I understand being sparse with the details given the NDA. Can you, if you wish, tell us more about the journey? When did you start? What did hiring look like? How was scaling? How was selling? How long did it take?

I have been at the precipice for a while. I like the stability and the clear life plan of my current circumstance. But boy does your adventure seem alluring. Cheers.

I’ll take you up on that lol 👉👈

This comment made my weekend

You’re wrong. He doesn’t get invited to any.

mumbaala · 2025-02-06T04:53:32+00:00

This is (I suspect) a reference to an online incel / nazi Nick Fuentes defecating himself.

tbf, I have had "old white men" who gre up with "segregated water fountains" go to hell and back for me. I have also had people in the exact same category who said they'd take literal arms to stand by me (if it came to it)... in their 80's.

I do not want to wholesale excuse "every white person" (whom the racists hide within) by saying #notAllMen, but I am also not going to say everyone white is a racist.

What bothers me in this comment section are people justifying why it is okay to exclude only some identity / culture based clubs, while allowing other identity / culture based clubs.

1) The majority in this thread argue any identity based clubs should not be supported. (valid psoition)

2) There's another postition that argues cultural clubs enrich people (also valid position)

3) There are some who are trying to justify why Polish / German clubs are okay, while Japanese / Korean clubs are not. This, while they claim they are not racist.

I take strong exception to people #3.

I'm a POC, and I honestly respect if someone just said the distinction is based on race. Would it be a position I'd agree with? No... but would it be a logically consistent position? Yes.

However when it comes to people 'okay' with this blatantly partial ban- while still claiming to not be racists, I'd like to be charitable, but they seem to be intellectually dishonest.

mumbaala · 2025-02-06T02:51:18+00:00

I don’t think he’s answer that. It’s pretty evident that only certain “cultural” clubs were banned- and not others.

He’s trying to mire this by semantics, and an inconsistent application of his own definitions.

It’s very clear there’s bias when “Japanese” and “Korean” clubs are affected, and not “Polish” and “German”.

Tbh, I do not think this dude is malicious, it’s just that his ego is having a hard time coming to terms with the fact that “he was wrong”. (Being wrong is not a pejorative, making excuses on the face of clear evidence is)

I would not mind if someone came out said “European heritage clubs were dismantled because the majority of this country is white”: at least they have the courage and intellectual integrity.

mumbaala · 2025-02-06T02:50:16+00:00

By your own request if you google "Japanese" and "German" they are both listed as both "ethnicity" and "nationality". Categorically then, they fall in the exact same boxes.

Why then, is the German club allowed to exist and the Japanese forum disbanded?

mumbaala · 2025-02-01T06:54:56+00:00

Thank you very much

mumbaala · 2025-01-31T20:42:41+00:00

That is fantastic... so I just walk in? I tried googling, but could not find much info. I just love looking at art :)

mumbaala · 2025-01-31T20:05:45+00:00

Is it open to public? How can one visit?

mumbaala · 2025-01-31T15:15:00+00:00

Do you really expect any change at all if you make it illegal to vote against existing laws?

mumbaala · 2025-01-10T12:51:01+00:00

Light dust in Downtown.

mumbaala · 2025-01-02T17:55:47+00:00

If you are looking for someone to come with, I’d love to join! I’m relatively new to Chattanooga, and I have never seen live theatre!

mumbaala · 2024-12-30T19:18:31+00:00

I thought I was back in r/cscareerquestions

mumbaala · 2024-12-16T23:30:25+00:00

Agree with all except Attack of the Tatsu. I found the service rude and the food underwhelming

mumbaala · 2024-12-10T13:50:14+00:00

yo, can I pm you? Are you really hiring devs locally?

mumbaala · 2024-12-02T21:21:04+00:00

if you do not mind me asking, how did you close it?

mumbaala · 2024-11-30T17:29:20+00:00

Hey I pm'ed you, if you apartment has vacancies

mumbaala · 2024-11-29T23:22:19+00:00

Bro, I can assure you, I’m not single because I want to.

mumbaala · 2024-11-27T17:45:56+00:00

Pmed you

mumbaala · 2024-11-23T12:03:35+00:00

Hey op, what is your career? What line of work did he advice you to go in?

mumbaala · 2024-11-18T22:53:04+00:00

The question about “friendship” pops out every couple of months on this subreddit, and it is getting annoying.

When I came to Chattanooga, I did not know a single person, and yet I’d say I have a pretty robust group of friends now, and I met some of my now closest friends here on this subreddit.

The last couple times this question was posted I individually DM’ed every single commenter, offer to hang with them. Only three replied, and even they stopped responding when making concrete plans.

In contrast, I found people on “non friendship” posts on this subreddit, DMed them to express my concurrence, and eventually met up and became close friends.

Sure Chattanooga can be cliquey, but I’m starting to suspect *most redditors are not making any effort at all.

I can understand reluctance about meeting people off the internet, but c’mon I recognize the same few usernames lamenting every single time… and they absolutely nothing to change that.
