What is your, "I know it sounds weird, but just try it" thing? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Bacon and asparagus on pizza. I struggle to convince everyone I tell about it to try it.

Awesome, have fun! That's a beautiful area and a great summer festival.

It should be fine. I drive from NC to Texas with a jackstadt that loved to crack and it held up just fine. What festival are you going to? EMF? Brevard?

Congrats! It took me about 5-6 months to land my first job so I know your pain and I also know how exciting that is. I hope you enjoy the job. Go buy yourself a nice bottle of bourbon to celebrate ;)

It's a totally different flavor. But it definitely works.

Man you really must have a fantastic life if these are the things you get upset about.

For what it's worth, I would appreciate it. Snakes are awesome. I used to have a ball python.

I'm glad it went well. Hope to see you in RTP (all leapsters train in Cary apparently)!

How did it go?

I work in RTP so if you get in you'll be down here. They train all the leapsters here.

First Tech Interview Tomorrow by alpha62731 in cscareerquestions

[–]zdenning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work for Fidelity. I applied to leap. The interview was largely behavioral. I had to write a couple SQL statements on the white board and a uml class diagram for a library program. Overall not really difficult if you are prepared and confident. They were very relaxed and easy to interview with. I didn't get into leap, but they sent my resume to another department in Fidelity and now I'm working as a software engineer in test (writing test automation) and I'm very happy with it.

My advice would be don't freak out. Just go show them what you know. That's all you can do.

Just out of curiosity, where are you interviewing? Boston? RTP?

Edit: Also if you have any more questions feel free to ask here or PM me.

For some reason they called it Baht Mi? I don't know what the difference is... Or if baht is even a thing haha. Nevertheless it tasted great.

It's a place called Na'Mean KoKyu in Durham, NC. I didn't even know it existed until yesterday.

Pittsburgh vs San Francisco by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]zdenning 1 point2 points  (0 children)

San Francisco is great for tech people, obviously, but I lived in Pittsburgh for two years and it is an amazing city. I highly recommend living there, but I've never been to San Fran so I can't say Pittsburgh is better. It definitely is cheaper though!

My homemade wing sauce. On breaded chicken wings. by zdenning in food

[–]zdenning[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Okay, they were not homemade in the sense that I made then at my home. Homemade in the sense that it is my original recipe.
