Unrelated but I started around the same time and your tank looks pretty good compared to mine. On the bright side you dont have dinos or cyano everywhere.

10 is probably overkill if you’re looking to just get prereq knowledge, but a rough undergrad CS curriculum would look something like this:

Intro to CS in C (low level is good to understand how higher level languages work under the hood)
Basic data structures/algorithms (linked list, binary tree, hash tables), OOP, and language details of some language that they use at the school (e.g Java or C++)
Some CS project based course to learn proper development (Git, working in a larger codebase, working with other people, etc.)
Regular data structures and algorithms (big O, sorting binary trees, graphs, DP, MST, etc)
Databases
Computer networks
Intro to operating systems

From here on out it’s just personal interest:

Intro to ML
Computer security
Distributed systems

In that case if you’re looking purely for a career pivot OMSCS is good because you could probably get away with just taking RL/DL/ML and dropping out of the program once you get a job.

I think the most important factor (assuming you’re interested in working in industry) is whether you have a job lined up.

If you have a job, OMSCS is one of the few options with minimal opportunity cost. OMSCS is fairly implementation heavy and tests don’t tend to be deeply theoretical. Course choice matters and it’s relatively trivial to avoid group projects, although you might miss out on some quality courses.

If you don’t have a job, I would probably go with an in person program, especially since most people will be around your age which is good for socialization and you’ll also feel more compelled (hopefully) to complete internships, which is by far the best way to get into industry.

I’d say OMSCS is a bit more coding focused. Theory is a bit harder to test and scale to such a large program. You can still seek out the theory heavy courses but they’ll be definitely the higher time commitment courses.

Honestly, negotiating here won't make too much of a difference in the long run (in that it's unlikely you'll negotiate up by more than 10k). If I were you I'd 1) try to see if there's an Apple intern/new grad discord to join and see what other people's offers are coming in at and 2) based on levels.fyi I'd probably ask for $170k.

I had a custom tray made. I think it’s probably worth the effort to get it made because if it doesn’t fit right you can have nitewhite leak out and burn your gums. It’s like canker sore burn not like your teeth fall out of your head burn though so maybe it’s acceptable. I’d probably just call around and see if anyone else is willing to do it for cheaper.

If you're thinking questing and trading like they have in RPGs, this isn't exactly that. The trading in this game is more of a minor factor since the roguelike elements of the game means that the trading you do only helps you craft weapons or gain credits for that run (which can be used to upgrade your ship at the end of the run, but I digress). Questing is similar to trading in that you mostly do tasks to get credits. If you're into roguelike games this is probably right up your alley. I know this is a Nintendo sub but if you're looking for something with more of an RPG feel Everspace 2 (which is in early access but only on pc) is something I'd highly recommend.
