This server is a massive bubble

random adder
#

@tiny heart is lc design a good way to practice this?

dull pecan
#

wait with class I just try to speedrun the oop problem when the assignment drop so I gotten pretty fast at it idk though maybe not the method but that’s how I learned

plucky pagoda
#

A better stat to look at is how many are seeking for jobs or internships

north tinsel
#

I’d say if you include unicorn and quant headcount, it’d only be like 30-40k max

molten flicker

Are we cooked 🫩

dull pecan

Am I one of them

plucky pagoda
#

Yes faang is a singular company as this guy states he is 100% factually correct

north tinsel
#

My point is everyone here treats faang or something of similar tier as a bare minimum

#

But in reality it’s already exceptional

exotic jacinth
#

the year is 2030, all of faang has merged into one megacorp

plucky pagoda
#

It's really hard to say what really is impressive

calm dragon
#

a third is pretty bad ngl

plucky pagoda
#

You look at LinkedIn and everyone around you is doing well

#

That feeds the perception

calm dragon
#

linkedin has bias or wtv

keep forgetting the word

plucky pagoda

Ik but I'm saying

Success is more visible than failure

#

All of us not good enough we gotta get better all of us are ngmi at the end of the day

plucky pagoda
#

When I got c1 I was overjoyed for the first few weeks. And I still am very greatful to have an internship. But everyone says c1 is the literal lowest of the low and I go right back to running the rat race

#

And people say the same thing about Zon

#

The cycle never ends

north tinsel
plucky pagoda
#

You can never succeed in this industry

i wish i could get an internship

There is always higher. You will never be happy. Think about all the people younger than you doing it better. Stop loving your li

The hedonic treadmill, also known as hedonic adaptation, is the conjecture that humans quickly return to a relatively stable level of happiness (or sadness) despite major positive or negative events or life changes.

#

If you think different, clearly you don’t see the number of people graduating with 0 internships

dull pecan
#

Bruh you just become depressed cause u think it’s the new average

north tinsel
#

That’s exactly the mentality that feeds this server

#

What even is ngmi?

#

If not a standard this server sets

#

To define the average

rare hemlock
#

well this server has always been self selecting

north tinsel
plucky pagoda
#

This simply is not true

calm dragon
#

ima be part of the permanent underclass

#

is it over?

plucky pagoda
#

Isn't most FAANG like 160-180k tc ng

chilly current
dull pecan
#

Yuh this is poverty shit

proud valley
#

Last night I said I share a bathroom with my siblings and you replied with “why” 😭

vale glade
#

Which companies

proud valley
#

Sharing a bathroom is a foreign concept to this guy

dull pecan
plucky pagoda
#

GitHub if I get Zon

desert hull
#

Databrih

plucky pagoda
#

I'm holding both rn

proud valley
#

3 siblings

plucky pagoda
proud valley
#

I feel like that’s not as uncommon as ur making it out to be

plucky pagoda
#

Everything else is secondary

proud valley
#

Zon is good RO

vale glade
#

I got snowflake and ts stock dying

dull pecan
#

Wait lwk I think it’s pretty common I was sharing a bath room with my sister and unc

plucky pagoda
#

Yeah that's why I'll take gh if I get Zon

proud valley

Lowkey

chilly current

So like anduril cbtm

calm dragon

perhaps anduril hedges you on war draft

calm dragon
proud valley
#

U can live in the middle of no where Texas for 2k/m

#

And be taking home 160-180 from hubspot

#

I mean u can move to nyc when ur rich

calm dragon
#

Man imagine living in your 20s bum fuck no where

proud valley
#

You’d be rich anywhere

#

The point is to save money early

calm dragon
#

Saving money just to die and hold half of it

proud valley
dull pecan
#

High paying is like 1M

proud valley
#

Gotta start ur own business

#

That shit is not gonna happen working in tech by 30

dull pecan
#

Nah it’s one mil pretty common now a days

proud valley
#

Unless u cook on a startup and stock goes crazy

late rover
#

why do you even want to retire at 30

#

what else will you do

calm dragon

proud valley

U don’t understand the neet lifestyle

proud valley
#

You’ll get bored ngl

#

Unless u have kids

late rover
#

most of the things people want to do after early retirement they can just do while having a job

proud valley
#

Then maybe it’ll be fun

hoary grail
astral quartz
#

i think its just more niche than general sde

#

for zon

hoary grail
#

ah ok

#

does that mean less people get it i'm assuming?

astral quartz
#

in the sense of what

hoary grail
#

😔

hoary grail

or ig, higher bar for interviews

astral quartz

#

n stuff

#

otherwise wtf

astral quartz
#

eh ig idk how frontend ints usually go, but mostly what ive seen is implement xyz in react

hoary grail
#

i mean idk honestly, they gave me a DFS + graph traversal kind of question

hoary grail
#

idk... it was honestly so bad

astral quartz
#

and so this was in addition to the widget design?

hoary grail
#

yeah

#

the only reason why I asked about the survey follow-up lowk 😭

astral quartz
#

yeah i wouldnt read into the follow-up, i didnt receive it until after getting my offer despite it supposedly coming on mondays

hoary grail
#

oh interesting

#

how long did it take for you to get offer after interivew?

astral quartz
#

6 business days

hoary grail
#

ah

#

i'm lowk so paranoid because i've seen on reddit people do (supposedly) pretty good

#

and still get rejected

#

tho this is for SDE (doesn't really matter, but still)

#

so idk

astral quartz
#

is the job id 3066439

hoary grail
#

ye

astral quartz
#

gotchu

hoary grail
#

does that matter?

#

idk

astral quartz
#

no i was just curious

hoary grail
#

oh fair

astral quartz
#

do you know loc

#

/team

hoary grail
#

i don't

#

one of them was from arizona

#

the other i think was west coast

#

i didn't get team before int

astral quartz
#

interesting

hoary grail
#

i think location is default Seattle?

#

not sure hto

#

tho*

astral quartz
hoary grail
#

idk the job posting said seattle

astral quartz
#

yea i see that thats why i asked

hoary grail
#

ah ok

astral quartz
#

seattle just takes hella interns in general tho

hoary grail
#

makes sense

faint hare
#

bc if so then c1 is quite good

plucky pagoda
#

I like how asking "are u junior" isn't even a consideration

#

because I am unc

faint hare
plucky pagoda
#

I didn't even recruit last cycle bc I didn't feel like it

faint hare
#

dude if you dont take zon ur making the biggest sell ever

plucky pagoda
#

I had my reasons and I'm not going to get into it

plucky pagoda
#

I had an internship last cycle so yeah

#

I just didn't recruit

#

ah ragebaiting then I see

hoary grail
plucky pagoda
#

ah

hoary grail
#

can I DM you about your proc

astral quartz
#

@plucky pagoda is c1 fr 71/h

hoary grail
#

like how you felt about the ints?

plucky pagoda
astral quartz
#

ah

chilly current
#

theres also stipend

astral quartz
#

are stipends usually given as a lumpsum or does it come with contingencies

astral quartz
#

so its basically a signing bonus?

chilly current
#

yea you can say that

astral quartz
#

alr

plucky pagoda
#

Less for me actually, since I'm 8 weeks

chilly current
#

my rec legit told me since u live in dallas, take the money and throw a party with it

plucky pagoda
#

quarter late start

#

though I know a few people who are doing late start so it's not abnormal

astral quartz
chilly current
hoary grail
astral quartz
#

oh is it like

the newer suburbs are cheaper but the older more established are more

astral quartz
#

yea my friend told me that

faint hare
chilly current

newer suburbs are out of city though so more commute time

company prestige in general is very different from its resume vlaue

#

a lot of very cool/prestigious companies have basically 0 resume value bc theyre unknown to recruiters

thick cypress

if you're the most dangerous on the block nowhere is dangerous

steel raft

So anything within that range.

thick cypress
#

that'll turn into like 7 after tax

steel raft
#

No, it's a lump sum!

thick cypress
#

it's 11k after tax?

steel raft
#

It's already been taxed is what the recruiter told me.

autumn raven

oh i misread, 11k is pretty good

steel raft

for 3.6k u can get anything within reason
