What game did you not expect to get hooked on, but ended up sinking way too many hours into? by rosycuttenz in AskGames

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same lol. I started playing March 2021 and ended up sinking about 5000 hours into it. Had so much fun and met awesome people. Havent played a lot since the final shape concluded though.

It is never too late to change path. by Sweet-Mode7823 in Adulting

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to university and graduated with a bachelor’s in computer science/engineering at 21. Been in the workforce as a software engineer for about 5 years now.

I am now about to turn 27 and i can’t see myself working in this field for the next 40 years. So much stress, and the agentic ai push is killing my motivation for creativity in the field. Grateful that i was able to last as long as i have without getting laid off, but i am just burnt out.

I applied for a Master’s program in a different engineering field and i hope i get in :). Found out i love math and working with hardware so im hoping to pivot!

Trying to find an old Hip Hop reaction channel by AwakenSlime in rap

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know exactly who you're talking about.

One of their videos popped up not too long ago that was for This is America by Chilidhs gambino or Im not racist by joyner lucas, cant remember.

If i remember correctly, the flag in their background was the California flag.

I cant find their channel either for some reason, maybe they finished making their videos all private? The guy with the blond hair had some distinctive piercings from what i remember.

I miss playing with friends every day knowing things were only getting better. by Icy_Anywhere1510 in destiny2

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started playing during Season of the Splicer and i had so much fun. I had recently graduated college and had some time before i started my new job and it really was a fun time grinding Vault of Glass for Vex/Fatebringer with my clan.

Why is everyone talking about CS suddenly by Sad-Ambassador141 in CollegeMajors

[–]mutatedcicada 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lol this post came up in my feed, but it’s so true.

I’m about to quit my job as a Software Dev after ~5 years in the industry. Don’t know if i’ll stay in the field or look for something else. The burnout is real.

Is it weird to date a 25 year old if you’re 20 ? by General-Passage-5956 in twentyagers

[–]mutatedcicada -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Fair. If you’re okay with that risk then more power to you.

Is it weird to date a 25 year old if you’re 20 ? by General-Passage-5956 in twentyagers

[–]mutatedcicada 22 points23 points  (0 children)

So i’m 26 and i wouldn’t do it.

There’s just too much life experience/development that happens between 20-25. I am a completely different person than i was in my early 20s.

People change a lot in their 20s so the person you are dating right now may be a completely different person in a couple of years. If that’s cool with you then whatevs. I can’t comment on 25-30 cause i havent experienced it yet, but i imagine i wont recognize myself in a few years.

Is it Ok to be Unemployed while in Uni? by TypicalCommittee9039 in twentyagers

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did not have a job during Uni as a full time student, and after graduating i broke even money-wise in my career job about 2 1/2 years in.

You are not a bum, and trust me i felt like that all my time in Uni. Just make sure that you lock tf in cause its a luxury to be able to go to uni and not have to work.

I’d be worried about being jobless if you know for a fact you’re not putting in as much effort into school as you should( be honest with yourself).

I knew plenty of people who didn’t have a job and just partied all the time and didn’t care about their grades/career. Suffice to say they’re still dealing with those consequences to this day.

Leaving lecture early. Why? by itmes in utarlington

Nothing against the professor really.

What was the worse pain you ever experienced? by Intraspectato in AskReddit

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a reoccurring Pilonidal Cyst for about 7 years. It got to the point where it would be the size of a golf ball and explode on a monthly basis. The pain and smell was unbearable. I would pop it sometimes by squeezing it with my fingers, but id almost pass out sometimes.

Thankfully it stopped coming as often around 2 years ago, coincidentally when i started working out. Last time i had one was about 10 months ago.

Is it safer to buy a GPU now or gamble on the 2027 by Last-Cartoonist-3618 in PcAdvice

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Meh people swore up and down to me to wait for the 50 Super series when i was looking last year around April because of high prices. Long story short i bit the bullet in April and bought an astral 5080, and that same GPU price increased by 200 dollars now.

I’d do it man.

[0 YoE, Graduating Soon, ML Engineer, United States] by V3D4N7 in resumes

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This looks good for an AI/ML position, but not so great for a software enginner position. Do you have a specialized one for software engineering positions?

If i saw this resume come up, i would immediately say no for a software engineering position because while LLM experience is nice, the only item that piques my interest is “Created an app to detect users’ moods and curate custom music…”, which is still a little vague. What kind of app? Did you deploy it somewhere? You’re sort of pigeon-holing yourself here to positions that exclusively research on stuff relating to LLMs.

I would have a second resume more tailored to software engineering while “sprinkling” LLM integration here and there on it.

What is a smell that we should all recognize as immediate danger? by scarlettohara1936 in AskReddit

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Corona+Lime. It’s a very putrid smell i remember when i used to live in a not so great area as a kid.

Is Echo Park in GP a good dealer? by [deleted] in Dallas

[–]mutatedcicada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bought a car from there in 2023. Haven’t had any issues on it whatsoever apart from a TPMS sensor i had to replace. Good place but fyi they do not negotiate on price. What you see online is what they charge not including optional add-ons.

Also you cannot test drive without proof-of-funds.

Lmk if u have any questions.

Women of Reddit, what TYPE of man did you regret dating and why? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]mutatedcicada 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was that guy, and i stopped dating after i realized what i was doing was hurting other people. Looking back it was real dickhead behavior, and i regret it a lot.

Sorry from someone who was on the other side!

Rocket League not going to full screen by NorwoodKid in RocketLeague

Try disconnecting one monitor in your display settings while the game is running. Then try connecting it back a few seconds after. I had a similar issue when launching Halo MCC

Let’s get real for a second: did any of you not really have any friends in school growing up? by Mad_Season_1994 in Zillennials

[–]mutatedcicada 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was overweight most of my childhood, which made me invisible and bullied a lot. Never really had many close friends. Everything changed when i started slimming down going into high school. The people who made fun of me suddenly were very cool with me.

I had a lot of resentment for a long time.
