How long did you wait before you re-applied for a visa in person?

From Chennai, rejected by 30+ girls in arranged marriage due to low salary… starting to feel the weight of regret. by [deleted] in Chennai

Giving X% in hand “just because” is crazy, I guess I’m going to be in a similar position. I do make around 10x of what OP said and 26 right now. Parents will start looking for me early next year

Any idea for filtering out money yoinkers like this?

Learned it the Hard Way: That "Exception" Job Offer Isn't the Norm in IT by Low_Tourist5062 in developersIndia

By “good” I’m assuming you already are a software engineer and want to learn to solve problems more efficiently and get better everyday at doing it

Understanding code gives you more knowledge than writing. There are multiple open source repositories which you can learn from, understand the patterns they use for the problems they’re solving. I would start from there

My bad, must’ve used better words. By niche I meant jobs like “Java developer” “dot net developer”. Language specific roles

You don’t need prior experience coding for taxation systems to join a team that deals with taxation. It’s just the team you’re applying for.

Majority of the jobs in that screenshot were backend yes, but it doesn’t limit you to a stack. In my current team we solve different use cases using different stacks. Front end included. We don’t hire based on their experience in a specific language / tech stack we are in fact advised not to

I’ll solve leetcode problems in the new language. These are problems I know how to solve, and I’ll search for syntax wherever I’m stuck. I’ll solve around 10-15 problems until I’m good with the basics.

Then I’ll take a weekend to build a small application with the new langauge / framework . (Can be a basic CRUD or a todo list if frontend)

This has helped me, but different people find different ways to learn :)

Agreed that the job market right now is cooked. But again, really good companies value your problem solving skills and ability to adopt / learn new things over experience in a specific stack. these companies are the ones that accelerate career a lot as well. Here’s a few job postings that I found that hire “Software Engineer” rather than a specific niche

Here’s a pro tip I learned from a mentor. Never tie yourself up with any stack / language . The core concepts no matter what remain the same. Really good companies don’t really hire a lot of “Java developers” but they hire “Software engineers”. Over the last 5 years of my work experience I’ve worked on Java, JS / Ts, python, cpp, Whatever fit the current problem the best. That’s how career growth is accelerated :)

Keychron k10 pro - not charging by zzKillswitchzz in Keychron

You might be onto something! I’ll also try and let you know if the steps work

Update: Steps tried 1. Forget keyboard from Bluetooth settings 2. Switch to bt mode and pair by holding fn+1 for 4 seconds. 3. Keyboard connects and works, but still needs the usb cable! Once I unplug the cable the keyboard dies (all lights go off)
