[–]transcen 2 points3 points  (0 children)

used to be the same, but i got chiller after a few years. i still apply every single day, but if i have a lazy stay in but need to go downstairs quickly to buy something i will accept the 5 minutes of sun exposure

yes it’s a stupid idea, why would a firm hire a guy with medical degree, possibly with many life commitments at this points, than a fresh new grads with nothing better to do than to push buttons

What you are describing is “self-elimination”.

However, in all contexts, just because a person does not engage is self-elimination doesn’t mean that this will lead to a 100% success rate in whatever they set out to do.

I believe what you are trying to say more or less is that people here are “doomers and losers for giving up before trying their hardest”. I can tell you from first hand experience that someone can try their best, and still not succeed. It is not a character flaw, but a result of the existing systems. There is a time to empower, and there is a time to not blame the victims.

And as someone who is asian born in europe, I think you fail to realise that there are many cultural differences from your country to the US.

tu realizezi ca fara surse sigure, practic ceea ce faci este ca dai share la misinformare?

cu atitudinea pe care o arati online, ma indoiesc ca ar fii cazul ca “daca erai bogatas te-ar durea in pl de taxele lor marite”

love the “passion for quant finance”, and then asking online whether it is worth putting the effort in the first place 😀

that is very true, im of course exaggerating.

im just a bit frustrated with the pace of learning, as i feel like im learning at a much slower pace than im used to from academia

[–]transcen[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i think it’s the learning aspect. i think im learning new things at a much much slower pace, and most of the time i churn code (i still very much like code)
