If I switch to python do I get Google proc
cpp gca isnβt that hard
plus most interviewers will be more comfortable with Python in general
Probably
π
Q3 is always so many lines of code
Ask gemini
None of my intvers gave a fuck that I was using C++ though most were surprised
U can ping him here to ask I think
itβs better if they donβt know it so you can make some stuff up
They do not gaf about syntax errors if it's whiteboard
IBM
I will switch to python this summer when I redo nc150 in python
wondering this too but for intls
is doing it in c++ tech
Bc I can't code in python π₯π₯
Dude bagging Zon w c++ would be so aura
Zon plz I need you
ik someone that had one internship they were doing after senior year and then got zon ng
what are you fr
do you not know python
f500 swe
I never learned it bruh
Idk how u guys are doing some of the gca problems without python, i use imports all the time
im only redoing the last 75 problems of the nc 150 this summer to shake the rust of the things i dont remember that well
Import <stdio>
Import <vector>
Import <unordered_map>
Using namespace std
as for redoing multiple times not rlly worth the whole point is to learn patterns not to memorize
He's rbing
Nah i use like sorted dict or sorted list to make it easier
import cluely
Server likes to shit on Zon
And it passes normally
Ye
Cpp orz idk any cpp
Yeah i use ts too
why is this bad?
Cpp is fun
I think its fine to use bisect aint no one want to write all that
idk its just weird to use
Idk how to binary search without bisect
I use python libraries all the time in interviews. If anything they respect you taking advantage of the language
Ok this might be a problem
brudda
your school doesnβt make you learn cpp?
thats rb
Only if ur cs
some ppl do java
I just gpt all my C hws π€
my school is a cpp school but im more comfortable with python
Just practice binary search a dozen times
Thanks god I didn't get the email
I donβt fw that woke shit
Also my school is a python chud school ngl
@nimble oak https://www.tiktok.com/t/ZP8gGeqrS/ is this real quant humor
No this guy is larping linalg1
the only one i import is deque ngl i cannot do defaultdict
i just learned how to do it manually
Bro really wants the ban xd
Defaultdict is lame
Wth
Unordered_map my beloved
"did some graham schmidt stuff" its like one of the most basic linear algebra concepts you can use
ive gotten conflicting advice on using things like default_dict and counter
i think neetcode said dont use them
I see is this hft shop
how do yk
i think he said the interviewer might not be familiar or like it
could be remembering wrong
Theyre not allowed to post at their office i think??
this doesn't mean anything guarantee i can find a quant researcher diml on yt rn
ive also never really had a situation where it would be useful in an interview
always get some fucked shit
I though all the top guys had a no filming thing
ya I'm saying its so common using gram-schmidt is not a notable accomplishment
Like cant film in office
you can def find dimls of people in quant firms on yt
O dam
orz...
Do you have a utube channel
so true as quants we ALL use gram schmidt algorith mdaily
Wait hes swe tho
I'm suck at that game
Yeah but i mean like at the desks idt theyre allowed to film
Damn my low iq is stopping me from succeeding in everything
realllllllly?.....
in this case it might be true
@proud mauve did u really not get antyhign for summer
as intl
π
240 bench letβs go
orz...
Haha
Anyone else studymaxxing rn
i'm unemployment maxxing
Olympiad kids from mit:
this is average olympiad kid life outcome ngl
What is the life outcome of a non olympiad chud kid π₯
π
FAANG+
So peak
theyre cracked
hes still here
Like Zon?
isnβt his salary pretty low
like 80k or something
idk its just a meme
Nah Zon is my dream bro
Idc about Anthropic
3cents/sec is a great salary
three tenths of a cent
oh whoops LOL
π₯
What year r u Gojo
I see
Not really
I've seen no prev -> databricks and perplexity ng
ppeople still use perplexity?
I mean as long as it pays well
brutal salary mog
Ok school
Your group is on a 7 day streak! π₯ Here are yesterday's results:
π 3/6: @strong sandal
4/6: @noble lion @proud mauve
5/6: @undone mirage @dawn valve @hybrid lagoon
6/6: @fading beacon @summer folio
Ts dooming me
tiger 9 and 3 others were playing
yo waht the hlel

Chud word

I miss amazon chan π
R zon interns fully in person
How i feel talking to my marketing major friends
yes
you can work in diff offices if u want
maybe your manager cares or doesn't care
Can u send
oh do u actually want it
yeah lowk
if u get process next year
there r ones i want more tho
lwky cant be sending it around
yeah
lwk
Some of these mfs dont check
@foggy fern can I dm u
nah
a was playing
parents told me not to talk to strangers
Ye π
yo am i ngmi?
gmi
Chill bro
my kingggg
How can I know bro π
I'm not in 240
i heard the 240 goons were sentn
sentn? π€
Damn this is the trump shooter π
lowkey valid imagine getting into Caltech and ending up ngmi
Anyone know what skillset and domain knowledge is important for infra roles? Looks interesting, ik you need to know linux dis systems and networking but what else
infras so vague and depends on what company / product you'll be supporting
if heβd just done CS he wouldβve been set tooπ
Hm ok damn
Im trying to not be crudbob replaceable but it seems like everything replaceable soon
yes everything is replaceable
with one single prompt mr claude will make 100 mcp calls and render all roles useless
So how can chuds get jobs
Like in the late 2010s
I mean back when he was at caltech
time travel i guess
also is it better if u hypo get a ro at a mid company to just work there and try to hop or try to delay grad/masters for more gmi company
option 1 is way better right
probably
Ml >
delay
option 2 way better
you have way mobility in your internships than after you start working
Hmm i see
common advice would be to go stable and take option 1
get a few years exp
then jump ship
rinse and repeat
muy might be a gambler
ifl u have way less mobility this way
like in college you can go from c1 -> js
What is mid company here
its the common opinion among the masses though
interesting
If itβs c1 level lowkey I would delay
but you do have a point
intern to intern prestige hopping is much easier
than ft to ft prestige hopping
that's why the masses are ngmi
I think cuz u go to a good school itβs more worth to delay too
like take advantage of that school name
masses prefer stability
also true
even if u go to a ngmi school, gradaute asap then do masters
what do people self research
oh im not doing self research π
self study mainly
i want to revisit foundations mostly
what are the foundations
like basically re-study all my classes ive taken so far, except revisit everything thoroughly rigorously
was algos hard there I saw Laura Zhang got a 70% on her midterm
oh
i thought you'd only study things relevant to your job ngl
linear + abstract alg, analysis, probability and stats, ml / learning theory, nlp
studying every past class is
she made mop tho so must be pretty gmi
or wtv
yeah
and i also need to study topology bc 2 of my classes next sem depend on it
you guys were talkkign about her
plus putnam
so quite a lot to study
yeah
I literally talked about her posting her test grades all the time
And her new TikTok just popped up
how many times have u taken the putnam
what was your best score
so i want to actually study this time and do well
Yeah she got pink mop I think
holy
but I mean still impressive
Yeah sophomore
whys she look like she's in her 40s
no hate or anything
engineering really took the life out of her
itβs the tj stress
what's tj
some stem focused hs in Virginia
Thomas Jefferson high school for science and technology
yea itβs like super gmi
jeez
put some glaze on loos name
tj?
Oh Thomas Jefferson
How can I know that bro I'm not from here
Idk high schools here
their college decisions page be looking like this
i wonder how much it costs to go there
Holy Purdue sneak
one of the most orz hs in the country
mbhs is orz too
laura zhang's hardwwokr has inspired me to do 1 more lc for the day
what are you prompting π₯
is she really
What is mbhs
Yes lmao
what project are u working on
Wait you went there?
Nova orz
what does it mean to port this
can u speak ngmilish
not be a dumbass
all u need is English in 2026
in 20 years no one will
Just keep up with repos daily
in 2070 all you will need is your head
they'll make up some neuralink device
that connects to your brain
where is this even from I just realized itβs not a Mac
you'll think of something and chatgpt will connect to 10000 diffferent mcp servers to get it done fory ou
crzy pre ai
Damn lowk this person might gap @nimble oak π
We will be a hive mind by then
No he was top quant qt as a soph and sheβs Amazon sde
gapped
what's the practical point of porting it to another language
She's freshman rn right
nobody gaps my kinda muy
sybau
i mean shes drw bro
no soph
shh summer intern is all that counts
Sorry mb π
a lot of people ar eindeed gmi
lots of ppl do gap me

she acts like an unorz grifter on tiktok but she's actually pretty orz
not even outliers this is common tbh
lots of mit ppl ar ebums
Am I able to gap the worst bum at mit
Or even the worst bum there gaps me π€‘
yes definitely
a fraction of mit (albeti small) literally fails out
π
i'm sure you wouldn't fail out at least
yes
are you also
orz
actually nvm dont want to ask for dox lol
but which area
oh cool
rm?
ah ic
oh
i am not too familiar with rockville π
ohh ok

W crodie
daily gmi prayer
does tesla let you negotiate intern compensation?
I've heard some people get to but they were masters
Ts meaning?
How to get Tesla interview
idk tbh I've gotten reach out from 3 different Tesla teams
I tried emailing these mf ghosted me bro
Crodie
Share your secrets pls
U got crazy projects?
ig
but does Tesla only let masters negotiate intern comp? I have offers that pay significantly more but prefer Tesla, just wanted to see if I could negotiate
Rly I thought Tesla paid well
Possibly gonna make it (if tiger 7 gets the offer)
Their housing stipend is like $1000/month tho right
Mfs expect you to live in a shack
its like 7k/month + 800/month relocation
Pre tax?
Ts frying me bro
????
800/month π€£
800 pre tax???
Good luck even trying to get housing with 3 roommates
yes in California
With that budget
Thats enough for 1.5 weeks ig
I have 2 offers which around more similar to 10k/month + 2k/month
I wish I could get Tesla tho
Id intern at Tesla for 0 stipend if they offered me π
so if I'm turning them down I just want to have a slighly better comp π
What sort of projects u got bro
What tesla team is thus
So more than quadruple Tesla looool
W zon
2 cold apply 1 recruiter reached out since they referred me after I declined due to tech stack
I didn't wanna work with Scala
Bro declined free ticket to databricks
How to get Tesla fall proc bro
What sort of projects u got
eh Scala is boring i don't wanna with it
@nimble oak u should get the js bot here π»π»
r u t50
its cheaper
How good is tesla
depends on what u wanna do
no
I emailed someone I got ghosted
Idt email works
Nooo
iβm in kahoots with a recruiter in linkedin
Unless uk the guy recruiting for ur team
Kahoot mentioned
zzzzz
Jeff?
Holy cow
u never acc interviewed w them tho right
Bro what's the tactic.
i wonder what interview process is
no bro
I got the offer for all 3
What's good
who the fuck is jeff πππ
can i dm
Holy cow
if u donβt mind
Ping elon on twitter
idk my projects aren't directly relevant
R u prev car company
I just have a pretty niche interest
Prev GM
Holy tuff
And I am good at the niche to a pretty good degree
no prevs, but worked in energy prev
Woah
I know a guy curr energy
super team dependent
clean energy quant
dang it
Holy cow
rather than prev @ big company
How good is tesla name for recruiting
i mean its tesla lol
Brooo I need to get better projects then
What that mean
Goated bro
Any company can jump to faang
i prolly cant get vehicle engineering proc if i dont have next.js on my res then
gg
W crodie
yea but like you will have a much better chance at getting interview at any big tech company
rec reachouts
That true?
i know so many ppl get rec reachouts from other big tech
Hmm
that work at tsla
What about github
im only tapped into tesla cuz i want ts so bad π
Being a hubber is hella aura
Same bro
Tesla pls
Holy aura bro
github is cool, but isn't it kinda buns to work for?
Kanu can u get me a hub sticker
as an intern ive heard u get no ro
but im sure its chill as a ft
atleast its not a putnam scholar
Together we are ai
is ur office gonna be in palo alto
or somewhere else
somewhere else
Fremont goated
I see
i asked the intv where they are based in
the moment he said palo
i jumped w joy
i was like thats amazing i love palo alto
Is palo their best campus
and he was like
palo alto is expensive as hell
No RO + bash scripting 8 hours a day + remote + hubber aura
W GitHub
github is really good as a sophomore
cuz u dont rlly care abt ro
name brand is there
its nice
wait a lot of the kids from t5 are freshman who work at github i feel like
ya but even if u dont want ro, its good as validation for performance
not a big deal tho obv
Ts true
i was looking at my friend's roblox roster and some of these ppl are freshman bro
wtf
freshman summer internship @ roblox??
Was Roblox rng this yr
Roblox is my dream
they recruit from like 16. I've seen high schoolers intern there
oh well like only one dude but still
Same
Isnt it med hard
interviews are always rng
Every tech company is rng other than class design onds
imagine grinding ur ballz off and u get cucked w some hard dp u never seen before
and the person who passes gets an easy bst traversal π
Reverse an array (python)
I need Roblox Tesla databricks or snowflake bro pls that's my dream
i support class design (ood) way more
and team dependent sys design
C++ 996 pls
maybe im biased cuz i perform much better in those π€£
Class deisng is more fun cause they always add a system design follow up
ts is the dream
Cause they are easy
Everyone does better in easy problems
Ong bro I need to spam c++ Claude code mcp projects
i think sys design is easy but i feel like ood is chopped asf
only beause of systems roles
when they give you like
class implementation w some algorithm
I've only been asked 1 difficult problem in a technical before
you ever had those
I wish I can get interviewed for a c++ role
Kanu bro what difficulty does rippling ask
In one of my tech they asked me 3 in one
3 lc in 1 hr?
Valid parentheses, some other parentheses related thing, and smthn to do with merge intervals and line sweep or smthn
Yeah
Dang alright
Wait no not valid parentheses
The maximum substring that is valid
I think that's a different problem and LC hard
is ur resume pigeonholed
How many rounds r there
Oh wtf
Out of that hour
I have 2 c++ projects but my experience is all python crud
ohh
R1 tech -> frontend, behavioral, leetcode 1 hour each -> team match interviews with managers
where r u inc
bruh frontend tech?
Front end like JavaScript/react?)
No shot bruh
No
w a js focused interview ive always been asked abt promises
Its JavaScript concurrency
A promise is simulating a thread
handling async functions
Oh ic
How tf is a man supposed to know about ts π
So it makes the illusion of concurrency but really since JavaScript is so shit
Its all one after the other
bro if you claim to know javascript and dont know promise ure so cooked π
I need to lock in bruh
wait wdym is this Disgusting
im trying to get into systems-y stuff like C++ and rust but i have no related projects
like i dont even know C++ like tjat yet
am i cooked
i think its od
becaause you have to design a class
then
implement a random algorithm
based on the problem
problem is like a page long
random functions
gross
allat
wait lowk if you pray that they only make u design a class
w objects and functions
without implementation
then its green
then they are only testing 4 pillars oop
oop π«€
im just worried about this ngl
mfs need to hop on oop design
like you gotta be a savant for C++ trying to get into it idk
maybe im like shooting myself down before even trying
Did u get rippling int?
what do yall know about the 23 design patterns that you might need to know and implement π€£
C++ is a terrible language
Read textbook bro
That's what I'm gonna do over summer
but its heavily sought after for jobs no?
learncpp?
The c++ language by founder of cpp
C++ is aura
There's a book
learncpp.com is sufficient
i was just gonna do learncpp and build hella
I read the first half of a tour of c++ for an interview
ye
They ended up not asking any c++
bro ure so chilling freshman and thats ur incoming?? bro π dont even worry abt not knowing promises in javascript
Typical zon employee doesn't even know
Yeah bro I js might be cooked cuz of ngmi school thatβs all
oh this was me when i studied fastapi in depth before an interview then they just straight up asked OOP with a dictionary
wait if ure ngmi school
wait what did u get
how tf did u get c1
Bro u got c1 freshman w crodie
C1?
dooming w c1 as a fresh
ure already set for recruiting btw just grind leetcode
no some space company cuz ground control uses a lot of python
100%/used it for a prev project in depth
Relativity space?
millennium space systems, a subsidiary of boeing/acquired 2018
damn itttt wish i did my c1 gca this year
you gotta be larping
how did u fail ?? huh
he hates zon
if u got c1 youre prolly good enough to pass adjacent interviews
larp larp larp sahur
zon mf is hating
Systems engineering
zon robotics
kanucool is so cool
Holy W
??
They'll ask u reverse an array or smthn
yo wtf arent you hating on zon
zon robotics is tuff
Just lock in for behav
bruh no everywhere i looked its ood class design
systems knowledge
yeah i been redoing nc150 rn, i just don't know how mmuch i will actually hear back from companies
and 2 mediums
idk why i even got a proc for ts i have 0 systems project on resume and my resume is pigeonholed for applied ai
i do think zon robotics is cool but all their locations are in butt fuck nowhere
praying i pass my other intv so i dont have to worry abt zon 
They don't look at resume before sending interview
They use random selector
Whoever passed the OA must be good enough
this is exactly how i feel gng
Their HC so high and not enough time before start date for them to give it any thought
There's a reason they spam offers so late in cycle and give 2 days to accept it instead of the usual 1 or 2 weeks
Is annapurna proc harder
my shit is for fall
wtf
Holy tuff
yo could u guys have a look at my resume? https://discord.com/channels/698366411864670250/1497984427685314621
Isnt it same number of rounds
bro its so early in the cycle
chill
i got lucky
im inc @ ngmi youre inc @ zon youre so chilling
we're doomed
U got Tesla and zon fall ur so tuff
yo yo yo
dont jynx
ive been tweaking abt tesla since last week
everyday stressed
thinking i might fail
then its all over
over
i can never get a proc for them
i couldnt get anything crazy for summer
Oh hell no
yea im not excited
Not in the summer π
But Tesla only opened 1 fall position so far right?
I only saw one swe posting
Vehicle engineering thing
check the thing again
For fall
yer
why are u larping
im the true NGMI one
πΉ
this cycle i got cooked
π₯
Bro we are uncs
Larp larp larp sahur
i am tho
