Robin banned for making light of this serious situation

[high haven]

[timid latch]

in all seriousness, is there a way to send a message with @something (without the inline codeblock) without actually pinging

[foggy jungle]

Just fudge the userid.

[high haven]

bro did you stay up all night again? your schedule is effed up

[foggy jungle]

I've quashed 9 malwares tonight so far, I'm on a roll!

I'll sleep when they give up for the day.

Where's that meme about how much money is wasted for meetings? This 8 am meeting sure meets that.

[mortal ferry]

yes, where is the perp?

[foggy jungle]

[young shoal]

isn't there the silent ping thing

[lament cairn]

crazy

[foggy jungle]

Let's let this die in deep history of OT-1

[timid latch]

@young shoal hmmmm

[foggy jungle]

@timid latch behold

[timid latch]

nice

I remember reading the changelog on that, but completely forgot about it

[young shoal]

absolutely did not work

[mortal ferry]

does it work on role pings though

[molten nexus]

quick reminder that :.|:;

[foggy jungle]

Let's not test it, I've done enough Neo'ing today. When I saw virtually the entire mod team start typing in the chat window I saw my life flash before my eyes.

[molten nexus]

<@&267628507062992896>

[young shoal]

lmfao

[timid latch]

it should, although do we dare test

also to be clear it still shows up as highlighted, but you dont get a notification for it

[mortal ferry]

wasn't an invitation to ping mods 😅

[distant hazel]

could try it on the test server

[frozen crane]

don't make us ping everyone

[molten nexus]

does @languid wharf work on pings

[young shoal]

rofl

[foggy jungle]

[molten nexus]

who is silent and why did i ping them

i did not want to

[low chasm]

not me, presumably

[molten nexus]

good

[frozen crane]

sounds like you're playing with fire 😛

[high haven]

dw. it will only always be remembered

[timid latch]

Let us immortalize it as a ot name

[harsh tundra]

!otn a Syrup is DMing malware
???

[young shoal]

too direct

[harsh tundra]

Well, dms mean direct messages

[young shoal]

it needs to be innocuous, also

[high haven]

it needs to be funny, also

[harsh tundra]

This one is funny already

[high haven]

is it

[crystal spruce]

malware is best served with syrup

[high haven]

ah

that is funny

[young shoal]

too long i think

[foggy jungle]

[high haven]

[high haven]

whats the char limit?

[young shoal]

32?

[high haven]

[young shoal]

malware with a syrup on top

that's like an idiom plus 2 unrelated things mashed together

[high haven]

[young shoal]

also probably too long

[crystal spruce]

nah that's 28 chars

[foggy jungle]

In any case, Mr. Dustin Ingram is awake and removing my reported packages.

[crystal spruce]

27 actually

[young shoal]

you also need the otk part

i think that fits

[crystal spruce]

we can add on one extra char

[heavy pawn]

Send me malware too

[high haven]

no

[young shoal]

i think that's illegal

[crystal spruce]

that's against one of the rules yeah

[heavy pawn]

Discrimination

[foggy jungle]

The quality of my reports has degraded heavily.

[young shoal]

Get paid WEEKLY!!!
also how do i interpret why they're excited. i mean, i currently get paid biweekly, and afaik that's fairly normal?

is this such a big deal? like, you're getting the same amount of money ?

[high haven]

3 exclamations plus caps

[young shoal]

well, i see that, but like, what's the point?

[vale raven]

I get paid biweekly too

Is normal

Speaking of

[high haven]

honestly im in the same boat as you

[vale raven]

I get paid tomorrow

[high haven]

biweekly is normal

[vale raven]

I have a huge $1.35 in my account

Can it be tomorrow already?

[high haven]

dunno why they would be that excited except that they are desperate lol

[young shoal]

i guess it's different if you don't have a buffer of savings, and you need the money NOW, not in a week

[rugged owl]

I"m bi-monthly

[young shoal]

that's every 2 weeks

[rugged owl]

No, since there's 26 weeks vs 24 periods

[young shoal]

err. wow, definitions are bad

if we use bi as in biweekly, bimonthly means every 2 months

[foggy jungle]

Welcome to the thunderdome.

[high haven]

1.35 bruh. walking close to the line there

one step further

and youre into overdraft fees territory

[vale raven]

I accept donations

[high haven]

[vale raven]

Help a poor doggo out?

[rugged owl]

Credit cards

[high haven]

you get paid tomorrow tho

[foggy jungle]

Python Boilerplate contains all the boilerplate you need to create a Python package. Why is this description so entertaining to me

[vale raven]

How do you think I got in this mess??

[high haven]

just dont spend all your money in one place

[vale raven]

Because "boilerplate" is literally a 10 LoC file

[foggy jungle]

Advanced logging and analytics dashboards probably.

[rugged owl]

Speaking of credit cards, credit scores are BS

[high haven]

bruh

[high haven]

ofc they are

[foggy jungle]

Oh my god

[young shoal]

hey i got another interview

[young shoal]

😩

[high haven]

ayy congrats

[young shoal]

3 day turnaround on the application

[high haven]

thats good!

[clever lichen]

Best thing I've seen today

(not me)

[foggy jungle]

Recommend /r/justrolledintotheshop

[clever lichen]

Damn right

[young shoal]

the secret is actually to do hackathons, apparently

[young shoal]

or it's that the bigger companies get their apps out of the way early, and the smaller companies, which are less competitive, are getting interns now

[clever lichen]

It's always funny to look at til you release one of those hunks of crap might be the car next to you

Ready to fall apart at any moment

[high haven]

ye

[young shoal]

😔

[high haven]

i mean

you already knew this

[foggy jungle]

That's a mood.

[clever lichen]

No, THATS A LIFESTYLE

[young shoal]

😔

[high haven]

[rugged owl]

lmao, today I learned in this meeting that my current company is using the services of my previous company.

[clever lichen]

Lmfao

[young shoal]

conflict of interest

[rugged owl]

Now it makes more sense why my interview was so easy. 100% poached.

[high haven]

lol are they not competitors

or is it slightly different

[rugged owl]

I mean, is an ant a competitor to a boot?

Honestly idk enough about insurance to say for sure. maybe some overlap?

[young shoal]

Knowledge in .Net Core, SQL, C# and Power BI
huh. why did i get an interview..

[rugged owl]

You see Power BI, you run the other way.

[high haven]

too late

[tardy rain]

Take it

[high haven]

[young shoal]

Design, develop, and test product or system software such as support tools, gateways, chiller controls, IoT cloud, analytics, cyber security, and test automation under the direction of an assigned engineer
why does this need SQL or power bi

[high haven]

oh hey mar

[young shoal]

if i get any technical questions i'm going to get rolled

[rugged owl]

I got an updated email on the matching scores. "I matched it and see no issues".
Mf, if you could match it in the first place, WHY YOU ASK ME TO DO IT? Shove these "gentle reminders" up...

[high haven]

oh is this a testing position

[tardy rain]

Everything needs SQL

Dunno about power bi

[high haven]

everything needs sql

[young shoal]

i don't think so? it's "Software Engineering Intern"

[high haven]

maybe theyre like

oh the intern can build the dashboards

[young shoal]

also i didn't confirm the timezones for the interview today so i might be an hour late 😬

[high haven]

for us

[rugged owl]

Power BI is BS territory. It's where your requests are never set in stone. Always "one more thing"

[high haven]

[high haven]

quick. check their headquarters

which timezone is it in

[young shoal]

problem. multiple states, different time zones

[high haven]

usually only have one headquarters tho

[rugged owl]

Just send a follow up email. "I just wanted to confirm, this is in timezone X"

[tardy rain]

Utc timestamp

[young shoal]

like, their website says one plant is mountain, one is est, but their HR person called me from texas?

[high haven]

"i need this yesterday"

[young shoal]

i'll just hope, lol

[rugged owl]

If you need this yesterday, should have asked yesterday + 1 week ago.

[high haven]

they dont have a main location on the site? like at the bottom maybe

its probably going to be central is my bet

[rugged owl]

Early meetings basicly f up my entire day.

[tardy rain]

Is this the people that asked you to call them instead?

[young shoal]

hm. it's in PA, so i'll just assume EST 😃

[high haven]

ah

its probably est then

[young shoal]

need to confirm these things in the future 😬 😬 😬

[rugged owl]

Wait, you are calling them?

[young shoal]

yeah..

[tardy rain]

Not a good start, tsk tsk

[low chasm]

EST best

[young shoal]

hey i'm learning !

[low chasm]

can't spell best without est

[high haven]

bruh. imo i think psvm should do the interview but not accept any offers

[young shoal]

@low chasm these are the things you learn when looking for internships as a freshman

[low chasm]

damn

[rugged owl]

Always do the interview, good practice.

[foggy jungle]

I need to finish looking for an apartment for this move.

[young shoal]

well if i can choose, i'm probably not doing this one

[tardy rain]

Is he doing the interview or are they

[low chasm]

I'll be conducting the interview

[foggy jungle]

I'm offering two months of rent up front as payment plus deposit and shit. Please just let me swipe my credit card and give me a place to crash for 2 months.

[young shoal]

tbh me. the job description is barren. the company website is pretty much barren

[high haven]

oof. good luck dude. im signing a place this weekend

[rugged owl]

inb4 some scam

[high haven]

yeah you just got that new one too

[young shoal]

well they look real

[young shoal]

well this new one..probably the same category

[high haven]

stahhppp

[harsh tundra]

Biweekly is same as semimonthly
But some people don't get that and use bimonthly for that

[young shoal]

"every 2 weeks"

[tardy rain]

Take charge, scold them for being unprofessional, late/early depending on what timezone youre in

[young shoal]

they called me to set up the interview, so i think it's fine

[high haven]

there was a guy in #career-advice that lowkey almost got scammed but then mina and co. saved him

[low chasm]

lol

[harsh tundra]

Like, biyearly magazine is supposed to be once every two years, but some people say it's "two in a year", which should be semiyearly...

[young shoal]

i've got this phone one, then a teams one later today 😬

i feel like dos rn ngl

[low chasm]

is semi weekly twice a week

[rugged owl]

Yea, I saw that save lol

[young shoal]

yeah

and the new one is tomorrow 😩

[high haven]

lmaoooo what does that even mean

[young shoal]

you know

[low chasm]

MS-DOS

[tardy rain]

We know

[low chasm]

obviously

[young shoal]

it's really easy to be objective when you see ... people talking in career discussion, but it's actually understandable when you're in their situation

though, i guess that's me just not being empathetic 🤔

[foggy jungle]

Ask me how I know part of OSU's Computer Science midterm is to create a PyPI package of some sort

[young shoal]

rofl

[vale raven]

How do you know part of OSU's Computer Science midterm is to create a PyPI package of some sort?

[high haven]

sad that i know

[young shoal]

it is what it is

There's about 10 of these now.

[high haven]

hey at least its not malware

hopefully

[foggy jungle]

None so far at least.

[young shoal]

i probably should have spread these out, tbh. i have schoolwork to get done 😔

[young shoal]

that you know of 👀

[high haven]

otherwise im sure the prof would not be pleased

and their grade would reflect that lol

[foggy jungle]

Some day I'll do a stream here on Discord of how I'm finding all this crap and dissecting it.

[young shoal]

well it probably had specifications, lol

[high haven]

just do schoolwork instead of discord. i—

jk

[foggy jungle]

Gotta okay that with the mods first though

[young shoal]

i'm only on discord because i'm too nervous to do anything else lol

[high haven]

why are you nervous

[vale raven]

@ mods @foggy jungle is teaching malware!!

[foggy jungle]

STOP

[young shoal]

interview soon

[high haven]

rip syru

[vale raven]

now he's hiding it!!!!

[high haven]

take a walk outside. that always helps me

[young shoal]

perhaps

[lament cairn]

Does PyPI admins or whatever discard/delete packages lile this

[foggy jungle]

Nope.

So long as they're not malicious, they'll stick.

[vale raven]

(those aren't malware BTW, they're just school projects)

[lament cairn]

I know. Seems like a waste of space to keep them around...

[foggy jungle]

Nothing I ever post here on PyDis will ever be anything even proximally related to malware, aside from very small strings to demonstrate some sort of behavior or schema that can be applied to other concepts.

[vale raven]

If one package takes up enough space to affect PyPi, they've got bigger problems

[foggy jungle]

The entire PyPI is only ~1TB?

You can locally host it if you want.

[lament cairn]

Huh?

[vale raven]

Yep
Many do

[lament cairn]

What? Wheels included?

[vale raven]

Wheels take less space

Generally

[vale raven]

It's even Docker-ized

[lament cairn]

I thought PyPI was far, far bigger than just One Damn TB

[vale raven]

https://pypi.org/stats/

[tardy rain]

Half of pypi is tf

[lament cairn]

Oh, 14TB. That's still manageable

[foggy jungle]

Oh I was 13TB off.

[vale raven]

just a smidge

[high haven]

[young shoal]

honestly, having to call them is unbelievably annoying

[high haven]

hey it was probably 1TB...maybe 10 years ago?

[foggy jungle]

I'm not sure I'm pleased with the security implications of having an entire class upload packages to PyPI with their emails and names.

[young shoal]

they're probably public, though

[high haven]

that is hella annoying. like what the heck

[young shoal]

they already called me, too!

[high haven]

man

forget them

[foggy jungle]

Well consider the following; I now have everyone's names and email addresses. I send a phishing email stating that I am "so and so, having trouble uploading this package" to other person.

[high haven]

syru you will never see the world the same

[foggy jungle]

It's nutty tbh.

[high haven]

now that youve walked down this path

[vale raven]

such is the life

[young shoal]

omg it's time

[high haven]

just want to let you know

[high haven]

to duel. good luck.

[foggy jungle]

I've been doing some offensive stuff in preparation for the OffSec certs and... it's been concerningly easy to do a lot of things.

[high haven]

easy to attack. always much harder to defend

🕯️

[foggy jungle]

I think it's much more interesting to blue team personally.

[vale raven]

Which ones that again?

[foggy jungle]

Defenders. Good guys.

[vale raven]

Why is it blue/red and not green/red?

[foggy jungle]

I don't know.

[vale raven]

fix it

[high haven]

purple/white

those are actual terms btw

[clever lichen]

Lol

[foggy jungle]

These are the new teams.

[clever lichen]

If you need to make a pypi package

Might as well finish my work lmao

[high haven]

oh oh do .color #c0ffee

i think thats the command

brad did it yesterday

https://stackoverflow.com/questions/8318911/why-does-html-think-chucknorris-is-a-color

There's lots of words BTW

[young shoal]

huh. it went pretty well

[vale raven]

[young shoal]

they said i have a very impressive background. the role is actually super interesting

but..the next step is an onsite interview

[high haven]

that was quick psvm

[young shoal]

phone screen

[vale raven]

What's so bad about that?

[young shoal]

i live 9 hours away

[vale raven]

psvc*

[high haven]

wait what

[vale raven]

ah
oof

[high haven]

umm

[young shoal]

but i'm really interested in the role 😭

[high haven]

is this role supposed to be onsite

[young shoal]

yeah

[high haven]

bruh

[vale raven]

then why apply

[high haven]

what the heck

how are you going to work on the east coast

[young shoal]

well relocating is far more reasonable than going there just for an interview

[young shoal]

i live on the east coast lol

[high haven]

oh

well

idk man

dont think theyd pay you enough but thats me

[young shoal]

yeah idt so either. but the role looks sooo good

[high haven]

what does the actual role entail

[young shoal]

automating things that are currently done manually on paper

[high haven]

like paper paper

wild

[young shoal]

think of the resume pad: "increased productivity by 1400%"

[high haven]

not even in excel

[young shoal]

well they use excel, and they transfer it from paper to excel

[high haven]

so you would be what

making a custom app

so that it goes directly to their database instead

?

[young shoal]

so, the funny part is..they don't have a database, they don't really have anything. the guy interviewing me was a finance guy

[high haven]

i—

[young shoal]

they were like "the duties are pretty undefined, we just have a goal"

[high haven]

well

[young shoal]

which sounds super fun

[high haven]

setting up a database would probably be important

[young shoal]

well yeah

[high haven]

just dont eff up the data model

lol jk

[young shoal]

they have like, barcodes on all their stuff, but my impression is that they're not really using them?

[high haven]

hmm

could use that

[young shoal]

well yeah

[high haven]

well this is starting to sound more like a FT job than an internship lol

[young shoal]

they were really impressed by my projects, apparently, though not sure if that carries any weight if it's not a technical person. also if hired, i would literally be in charge of the entire automating thing

[high haven]

but up to you

yeah it sounds like you would be the entire tech team lol

[young shoal]

indeed

maybe i just..drive 9 hours

[high haven]

bruh

[young shoal]

i'll talk to my mom 😩 😔

[high haven]

bruhhh

[young shoal]

don't bruhhh me

[high haven]

idk what to say

[young shoal]

it's interesting!

[high haven]

i need someone else here

[thin cloak]

Who

[young shoal]

i mean my main issue would be justifying the cost of relocating

though, not having oversight seems kinda scary

[thin cloak]

Live and sleep in the office

So you are extra productive and no rent

[acoustic moss]

youll be leading a team?

or alone

[young shoal]

alone lol

[acoustic moss]

👀

[thin cloak]

A lot to take responsibility for

[acoustic moss]

yea

[lament cairn]

one man tech team

[thin cloak]

I would think really hard about it

[lament cairn]

no one else to blame when things go wrong...

[high haven]

with pay of an intern

[thin cloak]

Ah run away

If the pay was really high maybe take it

Then assemble a team lmao

[young shoal]

i'm bout to ask for 30 an hour. and you know the CoL there is probably going to be very low

actually i can just look that up

[high haven]

how about you wait until your other interviews are over first

[young shoal]

$650 for 1br

sure lol

but i wouldn't want to waste this guy's time scheduling and what not

well, if i even get to the next interview

[rugged owl]

Might have to change my title I'm using on linkedin.....

[young shoal]

linkedin premium moment

[lament cairn]

Paying to find a job

[rugged owl]

You can see that without premium btw

[young shoal]

no shot

[rugged owl]

Premium too rich for me.

[young shoal]

where do i find this

oh i see

[rugged owl]

Click on the You appeared in X searches

[young shoal]

oh

[rugged owl]

Yea

[young shoal]

oh

that's not ideal

[rugged owl]

It also tells you what the search key word was that made you show up

[gritty zinc]

PSVM, executive director 👀

[young shoal]

where is that ><;;

[barren barn]

Hi

[rugged owl]

Right above "Top companies your searchers work at" which is right above "Top job titles your searchers"

[rugged owl]

oh rip

[young shoal]

what keywords were you found for 👀

stop whiting them out SMH

[rugged owl]

Specific job title

[high haven]

bruh what the heck

[young shoal]

leak it 👀

[high haven]

student
your classmates be snooping on you

[young shoal]

yeah no shit lol

mostly from my high school

[high haven]

theyre like

'oh what is psvm up to'

[young shoal]

😔 nothing much 😔

[rugged owl]

It's actually hard to find people from HS if you don't know what field they are in.

[high haven]

'oh hes an intern at a metal tube company?'

[young shoal]

but you can just search the hs

unless they don't have it for some reason

[rugged owl]

Putting high school on linkedin isn't common

[young shoal]

plus you're likely to have 2nd or 3rd degree connections with them

[young shoal]

o

[high haven]

ew high school why would you put that? i guess if youre a college student lol

[young shoal]

o

[high haven]

i--

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

[rugged owl]

Also no not really

Well, not for me.

[high haven]

bruh i know syru isnt on

but its wrangling time

[rugged owl]

Wasn't syru on earlier getting bullied by pings?

[high haven]

johnston, IA

[high haven]

yeah hes probs passed out by now

boy stayed up all night fighting malware yet again

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

[rugged owl]

Python server's emojis are creepy af

[high haven]

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

i like 'em

but im also weird

[rugged owl]

Maybe creepy's not the best word. Just odd in general

Since they're all angled

[young shoal]

o

[high haven]

also dont you love this last bullet point

d a t a g o v e r n a n c e

your favorite

the heuristic here is that any job title that has "data wrangler" in it

gets all the bs

just all of it

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

amirite or amirite

[high haven]

hmm idk if mine are much better

[rugged owl]

It is, recruiter should be first

[high haven]

these research fellows

yknow what my hypothesis is?

they hate academia and are looking to transition

to industry

[young shoal]

😩

[high haven]

amirite

or

amirite

i mean imagine it

[rugged owl]

When they realize they can make 3x their current salary.

[high haven]

you are a post-doc

and the grant you were working under

just dried up

you were already barely making slightly above min wage for your area

[high haven]

but then they realize its still hard to switch from academia to industry

[tardy rain]

Do you get emails about x views on your profile

[rugged owl]

no

[high haven]

should i be?

[young shoal]

yes

[high haven]

im pretty sure i turn off email notifs

from linkedin

[rugged owl]

I turn that garbage off after the first one

[tardy rain]

Lmao

[young shoal]

i get emails about people noticing me

[foggy jungle]

👀 Get noticed.

[high haven]

what the heck

did you not sleep

we were talking about you earlier btw

[foggy jungle]

[high haven]

dw about it

all bad things

[foggy jungle]

🥹

[high haven]

woah you know how linkedin has job recommendations or whatever

theres these too

on the job poster side

[foggy jungle]

yep

[young shoal]

well yeah

[high haven]

just curious if its as bad as the job recommendations

[young shoal]

ughhh i have another interview soon

[high haven]

gl

[young shoal]

well in 40 minutes, but

[high haven]

hopefully this one also isnt 9 hours away

jk

[young shoal]

it's virtual i think

[rugged owl]

Just move duh

[high haven]

just move

forget school

who needs that anyway

[young shoal]

ah. it is also about 5 hours away. but it's remote

[high haven]

see

at least this one is remote

and you probably will have support this time

[young shoal]

yeah but it's QA

[high haven]

maybe

oof

[young shoal]

it is a large company

[high haven]

maybe you can negotiate to be placed on the dev team

if you impress them enough

[young shoal]

i tried 😔

[high haven]

well

[tardy rain]

Fix up their shitty selenium tests

[high haven]

i think the QA at a large company is still better than whatever tech stack youll have to standup for the metal tubes company

but what do i know

[high haven]

bro write some selenium tests for me

[young shoal]

but i would get to choose my own tech stack

[high haven]

i need some to automate this part of my work

[high haven]

yeah and whos going to maintain it after you leave? the finance guy?

[young shoal]

presumably i make a product and they just keep it

[high haven]

youll need a dummy-proof stack

[tardy rain]

No 😔

[young shoal]

yeah and i'm a dummy so it all works out

[high haven]

[tardy rain]

I think our QA guys do stuff manually

[high haven]

tragic

ugh idk when ill have time to write some selenium tests

so i have to test this part of the system by hand and it sucks

every time i make a change

next quarter

if im still here

[young shoal]

hire me

[high haven]

you dont want to work here

[young shoal]

don't care

[rugged owl]

You know, apparently I can't read. They wanted me to validate the same rows exist in the new table and back up table. Not validate the scores are the same.

[acoustic moss]

banned for rule 9

[rugged owl]

Idk why this request sent to me, or why I can sign off on this, but

[rugged owl]

Didn't specify it was paid.

[high haven]

oh hey look its your favorite benefit

[acoustic moss]

banned for disagreeing with me

[rugged owl]

Counting vacation days and sick time together is a war crime.

Idk how I can even access my sick days.

[young shoal]

me neither. i'm supposed to have PTO i think

[tranquil iron]

by getting sick

[high haven]

honestly same

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

also dw the job probably pays very poorly lol

[rugged owl]

I mean, I have a good chunk of sick days

I see university

[high haven]

yep

[rugged owl]

Oh, I see texas too

[young shoal]

😔

[tranquil iron]

texas is too hot and dusty

[rugged owl]

~~Those are school children running from ~~

[young shoal]

😬

[high haven]

wow okay

[young shoal]

idk if i'm ready tbh. i'm super tired

[high haven]

bye

[rugged owl]

LOL

[high haven]

you can join robin

[rugged owl]

Wait, then that trip last time when I said dodge bullets

YOU ALREADY ARE

LOLLL

[tranquil iron]

Whoever wrote that needs to take remedial english classes

[rugged owl]

LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL

[rugged owl]

Also, my eyes just glazes over every time I try reading that. Refusing to read garbage

[high haven]

the tldr is you get to be the grunt for all the faculty

literal grunt

bc they cant code

[rugged owl]

"Sit" 🐕‍🦺

[high haven]

"Do this analysis. Write my paper for me."

[tranquil iron]

in fairness, they'll probably only get grunt level applicants because the salary will be so low

[high haven]

yeah the post-docs

jk

[tranquil iron]

don't lie. you're not kidding

[high haven]

half kidding

[young shoal]

qa sounds terrible ngl

[high haven]

welp

just pretend you like it for the interview ig

idk man

[rugged owl]

QA is terrible

[high haven]

oh HF was apparently 38th in GH star rankings last week

35 as of yesterday

[tranquil iron]

35 what?

[high haven]

35th in ranking

of github stars

[tranquil iron]

what does that get you?

[high haven]

absolutely nothing

[young shoal]

what's hf

[high haven]

HF is a transformer library

for ML models

and some other extra doodads

has some good APIs for ML models if you ever need it

[tranquil iron]

are doodads more like geegaws or more like widgets?

[young shoal]

and it's on teams

[high haven]

[young shoal]

i strongly dislike teams

[high haven]

teams

dont join early

they get a notif

[young shoal]

they said to join early

[high haven]

bruh

welp

[tranquil iron]

Microsoft Teams™️ or teams in general?

[high haven]

good luck

[young shoal]

microsoft teams

i have learned that i cannot even insinuate i dislike teams

[tranquil iron]

could be worse

[high haven]

could it be

[tranquil iron]

yes, it could be

[young shoal]

yes, it could be some weird software i haven't even heard of, like one of my other interviews

[high haven]

🥴

[young shoal]

i'll aim for 2 minutes early

[tranquil iron]

a couple of times, when someone mentioned software I never heard of, I'd ask "was that the FooSys written by John Blauchet?" where John Blauchet was a made up name

[young shoal]

have you guys heard of ring

[tranquil iron]

shuts that conversation down

[young shoal]

what's the point of that?

[tranquil iron]

is that the ring created by duality tech group?

[young shoal]

🥴

anyways

i used it for this one company

[rugged owl]

teams is better compared to everything else

[young shoal]

nah zoom

[tranquil iron]

what else is it better than?

[young shoal]

the zoom by singularity group

[rugged owl]

Teams for chat? Better than zoom

[young shoal]

sure, i don't think zoom even does chat

[rugged owl]

Because of the integrated things

[young shoal]

ugh

welp, time to join the meeting

[rugged owl]

good luck

[young shoal]

cya in 20 mins

[tranquil iron]

do a power play, make them wait for you

[young shoal]

join early then make them wait?

[tranquil iron]

that's a bit overt, but sure

[rugged owl]

Join 1-2 mins earlier is fine.

But it's already time now.

[young shoal]

well i joined a few minutes ago

[tranquil iron]

are you making everyone wait?

[young shoal]

i'm the only one here

also doesn't making people wait reflect badly on you or something

[rugged owl]

Rmah's always sarcastic.

[tardy rain]

Always be early

No matter what

[young shoal]

so i can hurry up and wait

[tardy rain]

Ideally with a white fluffy cat on lap

[tranquil iron]

only if you do it all the time

[tardy rain]

And a swivel chair

[young shoal]

yeah but for a first impression

[tranquil iron]

oh. you probably shouldn't make them wait if it's a first meeting

[young shoal]

it's a second round interview, but i wouldn't have talked to this person before

hm. they are late

[high haven]

el oh el

"forgotten"

[rugged owl]

Or wrong timezone lmao

Also forgot about this

[high haven]

cyberpunk solutions to cyberpunk problems indeed

[foggy jungle]

I... bed now.

[high haven]

wtf

[foggy jungle]

Dream of malwares.

[high haven]

you still not sleeping

bruh

[foggy jungle]

[high haven]

sleep

now

[rugged owl]

The lack of comment on the second image speaks volumes

[high haven]

[high haven]

i dont live in houston

so

[rugged owl]

bed

[high haven]

and i would never

been a few times

and i was like nope

[rugged owl]

I was thinking about flying down to texas to buy a car too

[high haven]

dont go to houston

[rugged owl]

but the drive back is too far, also I don't dodge bullets very well

[high haven]

wait you would have to drive up

[foggy jungle]

Am in bed now. Very comfy.

[high haven]

depending on where it is, itd be a long drive

[high haven]

put the phone down

sir

[rugged owl]

I actually have the perfect emoji, but it's too rude for this server lol

[high haven]

syru is going to turn straight nocturnal

and we shall never see him again

🕯️

[foggy jungle]

My sleep schedule is revolving

[high haven]

lmao

[foggy jungle]

It’ll sort itself out again in 3-5 business days

[rugged owl]

[high haven]

youre gonna be effed for your internship

if you dont sort it out soon

[foggy jungle]

Need to find house before I worry about work

Err apartment

[high haven]

ok

now sleep

🛌

[rugged owl]

apartment hunting is cancer

I need to hunt too, but haven't yet.

[high haven]

im signing this weekend

my cousin basically did all the work for me

[rugged owl]

Credit checks? & everything else?

[high haven]

he just sent me videos of places in austin

ye

hes the real mvp

[young shoal]

😬 i think it went ok

[rugged owl]

Credit checks is ridiculous imo

[high haven]

ayy

youre back

how was it

[young shoal]

it was ok i think

i fumbled a question sort of

[high haven]

yeah but the person was late

[rugged owl]

Did you recover at the end? or just fumbled all the way

[high haven]

so it balances out

[young shoal]

apparently, a lot of the skills in the job description were just not needed, and it's actually just testing

[young shoal]

i think it went fine after that question

[high haven]

manual testing

[rugged owl]

rip

[high haven]

or

[young shoal]

they said 70% manual, 30% automated

[rugged owl]

even not manual testing is rip

mega rip

[high haven]

will they at least let you write some automated scripts

oh ok

[rugged owl]

70% means 99%

[high haven]

at least theres that

oof

surely not

or at least there's opportunities to convert that manual to automated

"the future is now"

[young shoal]

also they asked about my hobbies bruh

[high haven]

and?

[young shoal]

who wants that

[high haven]

you didnt say wasting time on discord did you

jk

thats mine

[young shoal]

i said board games and running

[high haven]

ayy

running

and ig board games are aight

depends which though

[high haven]

eh peeps still ask that

sometimes

[tardy rain]

They want to know if the ping pong table they got in the lounge area will help push you to accept shitty terms

Good responses though

Some recruiter recently dropped the p-word on me

mf bragged about having a playstation in the offices

[young shoal]

tf

bruh i forgot to say "regression test"

[harsh tundra]

P-word? In Polish "p-word" suggests a f-slur for gay people (also, a part of a bike - fb automatic filters loved to ban biking groups a few years back because of that)

[tardy rain]

I guess it should be c-word for console but this guy specifically said playstation 5

[harsh tundra]

We have alcohol in our office kitchenette. And lots of sweets. Is that better than a console?
But nobody used that^ in recruitment

[young shoal]

sheesh

[high haven]

lol its literally fine

[high haven]

a good espresso machine >>

[harsh tundra]

Coffee machine is there. Idk if good, because I'm not really a coffee aficionado. My coffee has to not taste like coffee XD a lot of milk has to be in there

[high haven]

[young shoal]

he asked about what other types of testing I knew about

[young shoal]

what's the point then 😔

[high haven]

and?

[young shoal]

I didn't say regression test

[high haven]

so?

[young shoal]

for QA!!

[high haven]

well what did you say

[young shoal]

that's like their whole job

[high haven]

instead

[young shoal]

unit and integration

[high haven]

ehh thats fine

[harsh tundra]

Sometimes I need a bit of caffeine. But I prefer to drink water or juices

[young shoal]

😔

[grave cove]

I like antifreeze

yum

[high haven]

robin

i want you to know

[grave cove]

Antifreeze

[high haven]

that everytime i see you

[grave cove]

Makes them bones stronk

[high haven]

i think of your name as a synonym

for chaos

[grave cove]

I am chaos

[tranquil iron]

Always follow the wisdom of the crowd

[rugged owl]

I think of a bird robbing people at gun point.

[tranquil iron]

why?

[rugged owl]

Robin Robbing people

[tranquil iron]

did you just dab at me?

[rugged owl]

[clear acorn]

I prefer petrol

[jovial oriole]

https://github.com/HRLO77/website forums website template with the backend in fastapi.

I created a systems for "flows", essentially, when an event occurs (a post is created, deleted, voted etc.) it fires off and sends the affected content as json data to any endpoint specified (if provided).

And (if provided) will also run a separate script in the same server process with access to the database (if requested), as well as the same data sent to the endpoint

There are probably some security risks to this, but all of it will have to be on the server anyway

[foggy jungle]

I live.

[harsh tundra]

[vale raven]

Why?

[foggy jungle]

Why do I live?

That's kinda rude, doggo

[vale raven]

I see

My mistake

[twilit obsidian]

what in the fuck kind of response is this; who hurt you lmfao 😂

[vale raven]

how much time you got

[twilit obsidian]

yikes

[tranquil orchid]

Without a doubt

maybe I should start writing books about chatgpt

[high haven]

the crypto bros gotta move somewhere

[thick osprey]

Write books about chatgpt with chatgpt. 5Head

[clever lichen]

Aaaaaah

[clever lichen]

No activity here in an hour

How can that be

[high haven]

another link

https://www.deel.com/

this one is apparently

how people hire remote workers abroad

[young shoal]

but do they use AI?

[high haven]

no AI buzzwords. thumbs down

[thin cloak]

That's refreshing

[high haven]

for now

[thin cloak]

No don't let sneaky marketers mess it up

[high haven]

for

also

i think

i may be

sick

🙃

idk

[thin cloak]

Mentally or Physically

[high haven]

physically

[rugged owl]

Por que no dos

[high haven]

for now

[high haven]

why not both indeed

[thin cloak]

Psychosomatic.... or stress induced?

Or just something solved by some medical intervention ...see doctor maybe

[high haven]

i think i caught

whatever syru has

[grave cove]

the malware disease

[high haven]

😷

virussss

[crystal spruce]

syru's distributed malware to you I see

[high haven]

we hate to see it

👏

[young shoal]

👏 demonstrated 👏 skills 👏

[high haven]

that will never not be funny

[young shoal]

why is that funny

[grave cove]

syru the pypi doctor

[young shoal]

peepee

[grave cove]

hehehehe

he said the funny word

[thin cloak]

Had balls to do the joke lmao

also how is there no default maple syrup emoji? if canadians get word of this, they'll probably invade wherever discord is

[foggy jungle]

This is the most malicious looking package I've ever seen that's entirely innocuous and does exactly what it should be doing and says it's doing. But woweee does it look bad from the imports and functions.

[young shoal]

🥞

also where is the ot name we came up with yesterday 😔

mods!

[crystal spruce]

is this a challenge?

[foggy jungle]

n-no please.

[crystal spruce]

ill come back to this

[high haven]

dw. it will only take ~399 more days

to show up

[young shoal]

I don't think it was even added

[high haven]

bruh

[young shoal]

plus it's not a queue it's random

[high haven]

dw. it will only take infinite more days

to show up

@grave cove wait robin whats your toolset

#career-advice message

asking for a friend

[grave cove]

Next.js, TailwindCSS, and Prisma

[high haven]

oh hey

thats a slick set

like sports car slick

[grave cove]

Indeed. I could probably build beautiful sites with other tools too but it'd take some getting used to

[high haven]

[grave cove]

At the moment it's just the stack I'm most familiar with

[high haven]

ok let me just uh

note this down

for my friend

[grave cove]

Lol, let me know if they take it up

[high haven]

will do

[crystal spruce]

@young shoal
more just that it's not defined, but yeah imo it's mainly about the different rates at which it approaches infinity disregarding the other forms of divergence
since there are different rates, it's not very useful to define equality to just mean "hey these two things both diverge"
you do see it sometimes (usually colloquially) nonrigorously like

\sum_{k=0}^\infty\frac{1}{k} = ln(\infty)+\gamma

, but that's more just laziness because mathematicians can't be bothered to write limits and because the point of the statement is to convey that the two sides approach infinity at similar rates instead of equality
like big O notation is another one where the equal sign is kinda not an equal sign as well

in response to #python-discussion message

[young shoal]

yeah

[crystal spruce]

@rough sapphire from #python-discussion message
idk how cereal did it but here's how i'd do it

[rough sapphire]

ty

[small coral]

what the

[rough sapphire]

i'd still simplify it

\frac{2ni + i^2 + 2n + i}2
is the same as
ni + i^2 + 2n + i

idk i suck at equations

[crystal spruce]

usually factored form is preferred for summations

if feasible

[rough sapphire]

true

[small coral]

here's my exact thought process detailing even the python REPL tests ```pycon
n_1 = n + n + 1 = 2n + 1
n_2 = n_1 + n + 2 = (2n + 1) + n + 2 = 3n + 3
n_3 = n_2 + n + 3 = (3n + 3) + n + 3 = 4n + 6
n_4 = n_3 + n + 4 = (4n + 6) + n + 4 = 5n + 10
oh, huh...
i = 1: 2n + 1
i = 2: 3n + 3
i = 3: 4n + 6
i = 4: 5n + 10
^^ ^^ sum of natural numbers?
ok this is quite obvious (i+1)n

quick test...

n=1;n*(n+1)//2
1
n=2;n*(n+1)//2
3
n=3;n*(n+1)//2
6
n=4;n*(n+1)//2
10
yup sum of natural numbers
result: (i+1)n + i(i+1)/2 = (i+1)(n + i/2) = (i+1)(2n + i)/2

[small coral]

i don't know how people manage to think like this

[crystal spruce]

you deal with recurrence relations enough u start to pick up some tricks

[small coral]

nvm i left out the part where i went ```
3 - 1 = 2
6 - 3 = 3
10 - 6 = 4

that's how i figured out to just sum natural numbers

[timid latch]

@viral parrot @drowsy rose I created that dotfiles repo: https://github.com/vivax3794/dotfiles
