i havent gotten a fall proc lol

timber basin
#

how much leetcode should i do before i start applying?

#

i recently started leetcoding so idrk when to start applying

wraith heron
#

Just apply

undone mirage
#

just apply

timber basin
#

what if i get selected for interviews or sumn and im still hot buns at leetcode

#

cuz i deadass started p recently

undone mirage
#

just apply

#

and keep lcing

#

at the same time

timber basin
#

alr

undone mirage
#

there's no number

#

if u get it u get it

timber basin
#

aight

#

and i should put expected grad date as

#

june 2028

#

to larp as junior right

undone mirage
#

well

#

if u want a ft offer

#

then yea

timber basin
#

what's best choice cuz im fine with not having a ft offer

undone mirage
#

just put freshman / sophmore then

#

grad date

timber basin
#

which one am i better off as

#

sophmore?

#

does it lower their expectations in anyway?

timber basin
#

aight

mighty pike
#

Well if u already know how to code ofc

#

If u dont then go build something fun

timber basin
#

alr ye ik a decent amount

frigid solstice
#

@mighty pike do u mind teaching me how to code n shit

sullen finch
#

@undone mirage what is prefaulting and why do i do it to my buffer

#

lock in

undone mirage
#

i only know the basic std stuff

sullen finch
#

so did i

#

ts is not easy

#

c++ is for real coders

mighty pike
#

Is prefaulting like pre loading memory

sullen finch
#

essentially

mighty pike
#

Pre loading page?

sullen finch
#

you would call it on a newly allocated buffer

mighty pike
#

U use mmap

sullen finch
#

youre on the right path ya

#

you got it better than i did

#

much more

#

idk how mmap relates tho

mighty pike
#

I got a little bit of middleware knowledge

#

Just a little

sullen finch
#

oh the buffer would be mmap that you prefault on

mighty pike
#

From doing robotics

sullen finch
#

i get you

sullen finch
mighty pike
#

No for optimization the goal in general is to avoid syscall

sullen finch
#

wdym

mighty pike
#

making syscall is not time deterministic

sullen finch
#

yes i mean the goal is always worst case so optimization is technically that process

#

youre optimizing worse case runtime

mighty pike
#

I dont understand what u mean

frosty tangle
sullen finch
undone mirage
#

gmis in the chat

mighty pike
#

But there's a better way to reducing loading memory from disk

frosty tangle
#

yea before you'd have fun with nonsense like sbrk (which wasn't even meant to be used lol). I think you may enjoy poking around os dev to see what crazy shit people have tried to sub in memory alloc stuff with haha

mighty pike
#

I think it's called mmemlock

#

Or something

#

I dont remember

sullen finch
frosty tangle
frigid solstice
#

all this to be replaced by ai

frosty tangle
#

might be thinking of the wrong function then?

sullen finch
frigid solstice
mighty pike
sullen finch
#

lol

mighty pike
#

mlock

frigid solstice
#

my friend at YC, doesnt even code anymore

mighty pike
#

Lol yc

frigid solstice
#

he just has 15 agents talking to each other

#

all day

sullen finch
#

thats awesome

frigid solstice
#

he doesnt even look at the code either

#

just has AI review the Prs

sullen finch
#

cool

mighty pike
#

Slops

sullen finch
#

anyways

mighty pike
#

Anyway mlock

frosty tangle
#

I know for the level of knowledge I have (which isjust an OS class), AI can do it, but the problem is that OS class code is specifically structured for being "easy" for AI. Not extensible in smth like DynamoDB or wtv

mighty pike
#

Lock the pages

frosty tangle
mighty pike
#

U were probably thinking bout flock lol

frosty tangle
#

yea maybe, think I just defaulted to locks in general tbh

frosty tangle
sullen finch
#

@frosty tangle this isnt necessary for my studying but im curious how does std::make_shared<T>(args) only create one heap alloc while std::shared_ptr<T>(new T(args) makes 2

frosty tangle
#

I'm not very familiar with the internals of how CPP library functions work, so I won't be able to give a very good reason. I know that that specific shared pointer implementation already has a pointer object so it likely needs to also allocate space for the counter and stuff, while make shared probably wraps both into one alloc

lapis obsidian
sullen finch
#

thats chill beyond my scope anyways

lapis obsidian
mighty pike
#

Time determinism doesn't mean fast

#

It means the execution time is consistent

#

Or relatively stable

#

And that's more important than fast in some system

frosty tangle
#

Fair enough! Defo was being a bit reductive

mighty pike
#

Damn i like talking to u

#

U a chill guy

undone mirage
#

sorry.

frigid solstice

we're just gonna be human wrappers for AI soon

also this isnt a huge worry of mine but i heard in the quant world a decent amount of companies use exploding offers (i forget if this is for jobs or actual internships), do i have to somewhat worry ab this for swe too (not like im planning on getting a lot of offers but still)

only a few quant actually do it

the big ones dont do it

#

js,hrt etc

narrow compass
# undone mirage u can ask for an extension

i mean yea but im planning on applying to as many apps as possible from as early as possible and idk if its ok to apply to a bunch of no-name companies earlier in july if they would have exploding offers in a month anyway when i still want to apply to bigger companies that open later in the fall

I lowke need to get better at LC πŸ˜”

Did it for the sake of doing it tbh, I need to rlly understand what I need to do

lol

austere path
#

it was only for one of the rounds

#

the other rounds were all non lc questions lmao

regal salmon

lol

#

In zon

do companies test for sys design for entry lvl interns?? im taking sys in the fall and i only know dsa πŸ˜”

they ask sys design?

regal salmon
#

Yeah

amazonToad 🍌

regal salmon
#

Rare but I got it

sullen finch
#

sys design shouldnt be on intern interviews

undone mirage
#

it is

sullen finch
#

new grad MAYBE

#

where

undone mirage
#

amazon

#

ummm

regal salmon
#

My work ethics been pretty bad and if anything last cycle exposed it

#

lol

sullen finch
#

oh well fuck amazon

regal salmon
#

Amazon for sure

undone mirage
#

i think tiktok

regal salmon
#

lol

sullen finch
#

its not common at all

austere path
#

havent seen much of amazon ask sys design tho

undone mirage
#

ummm

austere path
#

its mostly just a coding question and LPs

sullen finch
#

even new grad it would be like <1/4 of interviews

regal salmon
#

lol

austere path
#

maybe like 3% of the time u get a sys design question

sullen finch
#

i would believe that number

#

checks out

austere path
#

yeah makes sense

regal salmon
#

Was a shame bc my other round was LC and I aced it so fast

sullen finch
#

dont study it unless its explicitly stated for your interview

regal salmon
#

😭 but my manager round was sys design

sullen finch
#

its not a priority at this level

austere path
#

interviews are so rng bro

regal salmon
#

If anything, I’ll still study it regardless

austere path
#

i wasted 3 weeks grinding lc

sullen finch
#

getting interviews is rng

#

lol

regal salmon
#

I left it to chance which was rlly stupid if anything

#

Look

#

lol *

austere path
#

non of it showed up

regal salmon
#

I was like there’s no wayyyy, and then got cooked

#

But if anything

austere path
#

genuinely wouldve been better off practicing behavioral

regal salmon
#

I need to stop being so worried

#

lol

#

If I fail an oa, it’ll be fine

austere path
regal salmon
#

Just grind for the next one

sullen finch
#

i had my first interview in like 3 months just 15 min chat and i lowkey forgot how to talk

austere path
#

getting a job takes a large amount of luck

regal salmon
#

I lowke took it kinda personal idk why but

#

I just need to

#

Not care

#

lol

austere path
#

if ur intv doesnt fw u from the bat its kinda over ngl

#

but we work regardless

sullen finch
#

imo getting the interview is harder than interview to offer

#

way harder

regal salmon
#

What happens happens, if it works then good. If not then keep ur head up and it’ll work out after

#

I hope

#

lol

austere path
#

i wouldnt say its "harder"

#

liek applying takes zero effort

#

compared to interviewing

sullen finch
#

harder to land how about that

austere path
#

like just spam apply and forget

#

yeah thats true

regal salmon
#

Good thing is next semester I’m not taking as much classes

#

So I can lock in

#

Been doing 19 hours every sem of college

austere path
#

19 is crazy

regal salmon
#

😭 Lowke could be a big reason why I don’t feel like doing anything unrelated to college

#

lol

austere path
#

15-18 is the most u should ever be doing

#

and thats if ur taking easy ahh gen eds

regal salmon
#

I can graduate a year early

#

lol

sullen finch
#

honestly if you really care about maximizing your career sometimes its better to put recruiting over school in priority

regal salmon
#

Lowke I was thinking

#

Prob won’t

austere path
#

true

regal salmon
#

But if I somehow land a NG offer

#

I might just take it

austere path
#

school doesnt rlly matter unless ur trynna go grad for whatever reason

regal salmon
#

gladge with no previous big internship experience

#

And graduate early

#

lol

#

I very much uh

#

Doubt so

#

But yeah

austere path
#

yeah bro js spam internships

sullen finch
#

i had no big tech last year

regal salmon
#

I mean I’ll def try for both

#

lol

#

Realistically speaking

#

Would prefer like

#

A summer internship

#

Relax senior year and then go somewhere grad

sullen finch
#

whens your set grad

regal salmon
#

But if I somehow get smth decent ng, I do have the option

#

Rn I’m supposed to graduate like May 28

#

2028*

#

But I have the option to do May 2027 if need be

#

lol

austere path
#

bro ur chilling

sullen finch
#

eh i think the new grad will be harder i would focus efforts mostly on intern

austere path
#

may 2028 is like 2 summers from now

sullen finch
#

not to say cant apply for ng but they will likely gloss over you

stable wasp
#

was it all behav or what 😭

austere path
regal salmon
#

Oh yeah I’ll def do both, it’s just different timings no?

sullen finch
#

they also can see a lack of experience

regal salmon
#

Intern is more fall, then NG is spring

austere path
regal salmon
#

Fair

sullen finch
#

youre competing against people with much more on you

regal salmon
#

Fair lol

sullen finch
#

intern pool is much much easier than ng in this market

austere path
#

i did the techs but i fumbled one behav ques

regal salmon
