[tacit halo]

Oh.

[obtuse otter]

[patent sluice]

[pulsar shadow]

[patent sluice]

i did acid and went into my job and forgot how a handshake worked when i was 17

[abstract wagon]

absolutely not

[tacit halo]

Seriously, get help right away!

There’s metal in ur body

It could cause internal bleeding

Not worth the risk

Call for help immediately!!!

[abstract wagon]

do any of you kind sirs know if docusign has interviewed anyone yet

or if they do fall

[tacit halo]

It could cut your gi tract and cause serious health problems

This is not a laughing matter

@obtuse otter get help right now!

Don’t worry about hospital bills

Those can be sorted out later

[pulsar shadow]

no

[abstract wagon]

@obtuse otter ask your company to sponsor your bill 🙏

[tacit halo]

Yeah this is not a joke at all

[simple saffron]

yeah bro ur gonna die @obtuse otter

[tacit halo]

Please please get help!

[simple saffron]

rip bawbdmo

[tacit halo]

You could be bleeding and not know it

[tacit halo]

This is not a laughing matter

This could be a real medical concern

[patent sluice]

yea

[simple saffron]

obviously no cap he swallowed it

ok enough joking go get help

[tacit halo]

This is not funny!

[abstract wagon]

@simple saffron i was about to say that what the hell dude

[simple saffron]

lmfao great minds

[tacit halo]

There is a piece of metal inside your gi tract

[dapper shard]

lmao i feel like you should just go to the hospital and take the debt instead of, you know, die

or you could LC before your interview

[tacit halo]

Don’t rely on stomach acid dissolving it

[dapper shard]

offer or death, your choice

[abstract wagon]

just got real thirsty and downed the can I guess

[tacit halo]

https://www.quora.com/I-accidentally-swallowed-a-pop-tab-Should-I-be-concerned

Everyone on here is saying get help

@obtuse otter did u call for help?????

[abstract wagon]

@obtuse otter you still alive bro?

[simple saffron]

go to ur local cvs and buy some plan b thats what I do when i have an accident

[dapper shard]

[simple saffron]

rip yung bawb

[abstract wagon]

wrong accident

[tacit halo]

It has sharp edges. It could easily cut up the gi tract and cause infections. You won’t know about it until it becomes serious

This isn’t good

Internal blood loss could also cause you to lose enough blood that it could be fatal

Guys, stop joking

[obtuse otter]

im still here

[abstract wagon]

@abstract wagon @simple saffron so do we ever talk about internships or no

[obtuse otter]

still bodying it

[tacit halo]

Please get help now!

[obtuse otter]

figuring out how to get to a hospital now

[simple saffron]

now you can check the disabled survey at the end of apps

[tacit halo]

Health comes first

[tacit halo]

Just call 911

This is an emergency

It’s serious enough to warrant help

[simple saffron]

get an uber

[tacit halo]

Better to be safe than sorry

[simple saffron]

dont wanna incur those ambulance charges

[tacit halo]

No call 911

They’ll better no how to handle it

[patent sluice]

dont call 911 tbh i don't think its like extremely urgent

[simple saffron]

^

[abstract wagon]

yeah just get an uber

[patent sluice]

like im not trying to get you killed but

[simple saffron]

obviously you know best

[tacit halo]

Better to be safe than sorry

[patent sluice]

get an uber

[quaint depot]

ambulance can reject you

[tacit halo]

It’s a real concern

[simple saffron]

!process ambulance reject

[small fossil]

You can only use this command in #2021_grad_process or #2021_intern_process

[abstract wagon]

@quaint depot "help me dying" "k"

[tacit halo]

It could be tearing up his intestines

[patent sluice]

depends on how long ago you swallow it

and how far away the hospital is

[tacit halo]

There are no nerves on the gi tract so you wouldn’t know

[simple saffron]

it's really not as time sensitive as yall may think

[patent sluice]

like i don't think it goes straight to the poop chute

[dapper shard]

i mean it is his decision at this point. us telling him anymore at this point i don't think is going to change anything

[tacit halo]

It could take weeks before serious problems show up

[simple saffron]

but yeah go to the hosptial

[tacit halo]

We’re trying to save his life

He could die

[dapper shard]

he understands that

[obtuse otter]

i dont think ill die die

[tacit halo]

Not kidding

[obtuse otter]

chances are low

[dapper shard]

he can also make the decision to go or not

[obtuse otter]

but i do want to go to the hospital

what a massive fucking L dude

[tacit halo]

It’s not worth the risk

[dapper shard]

us yelling at him to go anymore at this point doesn't change anything

[tacit halo]

Please call 911

[obtuse otter]

im not too far from hospital

[tacit halo]

Uber won’t know how to handle it

[obtuse otter]

like gonna uber

[simple saffron]

just get off discord and call up someone to give you a ride or get an uber

[abstract wagon]

bawdmo whats your address ill call 911 for you

[icy juniper]

when did u swallow it

[tacit halo]

911 will sort it out before hand

[thorn leaf]

coke is bad for u!

[tacit halo]

Even if he swallowed it yesterday, it could be causing serious problems without him knowing

[abstract wagon]

really? my head hurts

[tacit halo]

Infections may take weeks to cause symptoms

Even if there’s a 95% chance he’ll be fine, that 5% isn’t worth the risk

[icy juniper]

but 911 is expensive in america right? idk cuz im canadian

or does insurance cover it

[tacit halo]

No, do not think about the cost

Not worth ur life

This can all be sorted out later

[simple saffron]

dude no this is not worth incurring ambulance costs over

thats life changing amounts of money at this age

[tacit halo]

If it’s truly a financial burden, the hospital will find a way to work it out for you

[abstract wagon]

nahhhh lmfao

[quaint depot]

LMAO

[simple saffron]

no hospitals are shit lmfao

[tacit halo]

Is this worth his life?

[simple saffron]

just drink more coke and dissolve the metal in your stomach

[tacit halo]

No this is too urgent

[abstract wagon]

just uber

[tacit halo]

They won’t be able to properly handle it

[tacit halo]

No

It could have already cut him

[abstract wagon]

nothing we say is gonna change his mind right now

[simple saffron]

i think hes gone yall

hes probably on his way

[tacit halo]

Even if he has no money, there will be a way to work this out

[abstract wagon]

no there wont

[quaint depot]

if they deem it to be an emergency, don't give out no information

[tacit halo]

@obtuse otter please keep us updated

[quaint depot]

EMTALA protect you

[abstract wagon]

hell just be in hella debt

[tacit halo]

Wanna make sure you’re okay

[obtuse otter]

im going

[tacit halo]

The emergency room cannot refuse care to anyone that comes in

[obtuse otter]

rn

[patent sluice]

good luck dude

[obtuse otter]

i called and they said yeah i need to come in

[abstract wagon]

@obtuse otter see you in a bit bro

[obtuse otter]

FML

[tacit halo]

It’s strictly against the law

[flat vine]

ㅓㅕㄴㅅ 해

[tacit halo]

Yep, I said so

[cyan valley]

is this guy

trolling

[thorn leaf]

good luck

[quaint depot]

do not give out anyyyy information

[patent sluice]

good job csmajors discord server clearly we just saved someones life 👍

we did it reddit

[abstract wagon]

[tacit halo]

We actually could have saved his life

[gentle cradle]

hurry while it’s still in ur stomach

[abstract wagon]

@quaint depot u commit tax fraud too or is that different

[tacit halo]

Yep

It’s no joke

It could probably break off

It happens

[thorn leaf]

i mean ppl swallow ... more sus things

so that really isnt surprising

[cyan valley]

i mean

lowkey true

L

[thorn leaf]

L

[flat vine]

L

[thorn leaf]

oh lord

[tacit halo]

This is easily gonna cost like $10k

Insurance will cover it tho

[abstract wagon]

@abstract wagon i heard its quite common

[tacit halo]

Could still be $1000 out of pocket

[icy juniper]

10k

[thorn leaf]

LOL

[flat vine]

just tie a string to the vibrator like how you tie a string to the coin when you put it in the vending machine

[abstract wagon]

thats pretty funny

[tacit halo]

My father once had kidney stones like 7 or 8 years back. He went to the emergency room and all they told him to do was wait until it came out

[still gazelle]

what did i walk into

[tacit halo]

The cost of that was 12k

[flat vine]

remember to drink water

[tacit halo]

For them to literally tell him to pee it out

[flat vine]

also

posture check

[tacit halo]

Which is so fucked

[abstract wagon]

@still gazelle does anything good ever happen here or is it just a shitpost channel

[still gazelle]

Im lying down watching south park

[obtuse otter]

all this over a diet coke

[still gazelle]

the mods are helpful

[tacit halo]

12k for them to tell him to pee it out?

[obtuse otter]

damn

[abstract wagon]

@obtuse otter na your thing is legit i hope you get well

[tacit halo]

Your health and safety comes before everything

[obtuse otter]

my original question was whether or not like i should email my recruiter

but i just did

no chances

[tacit halo]

We seriously just saved his life

[abstract wagon]

i think he saved his own life but ok

[still gazelle]

We did it guys!

[obtuse otter]

damn

i got peer pressured into going to the hospital

im ubering tho

cant make this shit more expensive

[tacit halo]

@obtuse otter are they on their way?

Did you let them know you’re coming in

[abstract wagon]

@obtuse otter yeah i doubt an ambulance would be much better for your case

[tacit halo]

To ensure that this can be sorted out as soon as possible

[tacit halo]

They’ll coordinate with the hospital to make it easier

[abstract wagon]

you dont wanna know

[tacit halo]

$1500

[obtuse otter]

ambulances are thousands

[thick ridge]

its like 3k no?

[obtuse otter]

shit not worth it

[flat vine]

so like

how did u end up swallowing the metal thing again

[tacit halo]

At least $1500

[abstract wagon]

no judgement zone

[obtuse otter]

i accidentally dropped it in my soda

[flat vine]

[obtuse otter]

then forgot about it

then chugged the soda

like a DUMBASS

[flat vine]

oh ono

no

[tacit halo]

On the other hand air ambulances are 20k

[abstract wagon]

what did we take away from this guys

dont drink can soda

bottle soda only

[silk ridge]

dont drink metal

[patent sluice]

don't drink soda

soda bad for you

[thorn leaf]

wtf no way

[tribal ridge]

Replace flesh stomach ASAP with one that can withstand metal cuts

[patent sluice]

your brain will shrink and im not joking

[tacit halo]

Nope. Completely true

I don’t touch soda

[thorn leaf]

crazy

[tacit halo]

It’s so bad for you

It’s literally sugar water

[patent sluice]

yea

soda is literally the worst thing

[abstract wagon]

@patent sluice damn i mightve been einstein if i didnt drink so much soda then

[patent sluice]

you might as well do coke

[abstract wagon]

damn it all

[patent sluice]

its not too late! stop now!

[abstract wagon]

i cant im addicted

[tribal ridge]

I prefer root beer.

[abstract wagon]

soda is a drug

[patent sluice]

idk i might be exaggerating

[tacit halo]

You know. There have been experiments where people put teeth in a can of soda and it completely dissolved after like one day

It’s bad

[patent sluice]

but soda is actually pretty bad

[tacit halo]

Soda is bad

Alcohol is bad

[patent sluice]

and high sugar is correlated with cognitive decline so

[tacit halo]

Coffee is bad

I don’t do any of that shit

I’ve seen what it does

[abstract wagon]

some of us want to live a good life, not a long life

youre entitled to your own opinions

[patent sluice]

what's wrong with coffee

[tacit halo]

Too much caffeine at once

I drink tea

[flat vine]

i was craving root beer one time and bought a 12 pack

drank one and was like "ok im good now"

[abstract wagon]

let me get one

[flat vine]

over the next week my little brother drank the remaining 11 cans

[abstract wagon]

assisted suicide

[tacit halo]

Coffee is a carcinogen

I have too much ptsd from seeing what’s happened in my family

[abstract wagon]

does anyone care? i dont

[barren night]

so is red meat lol

[tacit halo]

Great uncle who died due to alcoholism. Never met him but still triggered

Smoking killed both my moms parents

[flat vine]

????

[tacit halo]

I’m just too triggered to do this stuff

[flat vine]

even in a perfect environment u are still susceptible to cancer

[tacit halo]

No red meat

[abstract wagon]

c u l8r allig8r

when its not crowded yeah

otherwise it sounds just like this chat

[tribal ridge]

Unfortunately not a choice everyone can make. Fish is hella good though.

[flat vine]

speaking of fish

i made sushi

[abstract wagon]

omg

looks so good

[tribal ridge]

Pog

[obtuse otter]

aye that looks fire

fish makes u smart

[abstract wagon]

@flat vine did you get the fish from hmart?

[tribal ridge]

I hate that my stomach can't handle it raw though.

[flat vine]

@abstract wagon how did u guess

[abstract wagon]

i do the same haha

poggers

[brazen shale]

yes

[abstract wagon]

how do you eat it

[tacit halo]

Fish increases brain capacity

[brazen shale]

never eat sushi without it

[abstract wagon]

call 911

[brazen shale]

I eat the remaining wasabi after my sushi

[abstract wagon]

i just rub some on my sushi

eating a whole tube lol

[brazen shale]

you're supposed to put it in your soya

[tacit halo]

I don’t do wasabi

Seems way too spicy

[brazen shale]

it lasts like 0.3 seconds

[tacit halo]

I like sushi with cooked fish

[brazen shale]

the spicy part

[tacit halo]

Also love yakisoba

[patent sluice]

wasabi is good

try raw salmon sushi

you will enjoy it if its good

[abstract wagon]

i like tuna and yellowtail better

[patent sluice]

yellowtail's my fav

[abstract wagon]

salmon is usually more on the fat side

[tacit halo]

Just concerned that raw fish could contain bacteria

Shrimp tempura is good

[abstract wagon]

mine too

mans has taste i c

[patent sluice]

nah if you're at a good sushi place it's a none issue

[tacit halo]

How would they remove it?

[abstract wagon]

more for me i guess

[tacit halo]

I like the shrimp tempura roll

Since it’s cooked

[crystal river]

They flash freeze the fish to get rid of parasites

[tacit halo]

There’s very little I’ll eat

[flat vine]

if you're really concerned about parasites you can take a 구충제

idk what it is in english but its like a germicide

vermicide pill

[crystal river]

Like if you look at stats Sushi is probably as safe or safer to eat than salads

[tacit halo]

R u korean?

[abstract wagon]

wait i know what you're talking about yeonny

[flat vine]

no i just know the word

but somehow idk it in english

[abstract wagon]

anthel something

[flat vine]

google says its a "helminthic"

[abstract wagon]

oh

[patent sluice]

this

[flat vine]

idk its the thing that kills parasites

[abstract wagon]

so fellow friends

have you secured internships for summer 2021

[tacit halo]

Not with 100% confidence

But I have interviews coming up

And all those startup offers

[flat vine]

no

[barren night]

No

[abstract wagon]

😭

[flat vine]

i just graduated i'm only here because #2021_grads is 🪦

[abstract wagon]

oh did you get new grad then

;D

[tacit halo]

Looking for full time?

[flat vine]

yea new grad

[tacit halo]

Anything promising yet?

[flat vine]

not really it's been a hella slow season

i heard new grad usually is painful but this time around it's extra painful

[abstract wagon]

sucks to hear 😦

[flat vine]

i graduated dec 2020 so i'm hoping that maybe when companies put their new grad apps out in august i'll still be eligible

😂

[tacit halo]

I heard some companies don’t even consider u a new grad if ur more than like a few months beyond graduation

[flat vine]

RIP

[tacit halo]

But I think in general, ur a new grad is u graduated within the past 2 years

[abstract wagon]

@flat vine it's ok, good things happen to good people

firm belief

[small fossil]

You can only use this command in #2021_grad_process or #2021_intern_process

[abstract wagon]

has anyone had luck moving american express btw

or are they firm on start date/season

[tacit halo]

Are they still recruiting?

Do u have a recruiter email for them?

Applied some weeks back and never heard anything

[abstract wagon]

yeah i think theyre still recruiting

some people have finals this month

recruiter is nagging me for response because i forgot i had an offer

[tacit halo]

Do u know any recruiters there?

Wanna try to get in touch with one

[abstract wagon]

na sorry

good luck

[tacit halo]

@obtuse otter is everything ok?

What’s happening?

[obtuse otter]

At the hospital

I’m getting X-ray

[cyan valley]

ur joking

[obtuse otter]

I’m not lol

I think they’re going to tell me to wait it out idk what they can do at this point

[icy juniper]

they might have to do a colonoscopy to get it out, hang tight man

[obtuse otter]

Hope they hit my g spot

Thing is tho it recently happened so Jen if they will

[icy juniper]

oh if it's recent then they can just do an endoscopy after they confirm the location

[obtuse otter]

Voting Alex best member here he cares about me ❤️

Endoscopy?

Bro I’m swe u can’t be saying these words

[icy juniper]

down your mouth

[obtuse otter]

Will they let me keep the tab

[icy juniper]

😂

maybe ask for it as a souvenir

hopefully they dont charge you even more

[obtuse otter]

Finna re swallow it

[tacit halo]

Did they find it yet?

Are they doing an endoscopy?

That’s how they’ll probably have to remove it

It should still be within reach right now

[earnest musk]

Mans getting a finger in his butt

[pliant hawk]

For free ?? ShiiiT

[tacit halo]

That’s what it costs for them to stick a camera in ur throat

Ridiculous

[brazen shale]

'murica

[tacit halo]

This is what a typical emergency room bill looks like

Other diagnostic services

Seriously

[cyan valley]

....

no fuckin way

work for healthcare company

insurance 🤣

[timber sky]

[cyan valley]

4k./...

for a panic attack

[cyan valley]

b r uh

[timber sky]

if anyone is interested

[abstract wagon]

thanks for sharing

[dapper shard]

Just saying I interviewed for this position and my interviewer didn’t sound too excited about the work at all when I asked her about her day to day work. Also their return offer rate was really really low. Around 20-25%

[low epoch]

Just got back and dont wanna tag them but is bawbdmo alive

[dapper shard]

Most likely

[low epoch]

Cool, i’m putting the discord on red alert. All mentions of coca cola are now banned.

Dr pepper now reigns supreme

[obtuse otter]

i am still alive and waiting

this channel is now a medical help channel

[cyan valley]

im sure

if that thing was lethal

it wouldn't be put on something

that is used millions of times

every day

[flat vine]

anything is lethal if you try hard enough

[cyan valley]

.

Yep just like applying to internshps 24/7

🤣

[karmic dome]

is it worth to try to find referrals

[cyan valley]

yes

its bassically a way to skip the line

for the resume screening

[tacit halo]

It’s possible that he could sue for this

Sue Coca Cola

And get a substantial amount of money

People just don’t know

But there are damages here

[obtuse otter]

hope I die so my family gets bread

[tacit halo]

He already has evidences of damages

Find some design flaw on the can

It could be done as a class action lawsuit

There are probably plenty of other cases

Get enough people on board an Coca Cola will settle

[obtuse otter]

eh this was my fault

don’t drop the tab in ur soda

[tacit halo]

Find a lawyer

They’ll be someone who will take this on as a class action lawsuit

Just get some professional advice

Well, I think the fact that the tab can easily be swallowed and has sharp edges is enough. A child could easily end up swallowing it and that can be used as an argument

And then tab cans might be forced to change

[cyan valley]

its not

sharp t

hats the thing

its prob digestible

tbh

[thick shore]

?

wat r u guys talking about

this is a channel about internship discussion

talk in #random or something

[tacit halo]

@obtuse otter swallowed a soda tab

It was serious thing

[thick shore]

ok?

talk about it somewhere else

[tacit halo]

We were trying to get him medical help

Health comes first

[thick shore]

no

talk about it somewhere else

[tacit halo]

I’m just concerned for his health and trying to make sure he gets immediate medical help so that this doesn’t cause serious complications

[twin obsidian]

😬👍

[lone orbit]

I got the cognitive assessment and have been ghosted since

[obtuse otter]

Yo what’s a good answer to “what are you looking for in this internship”

I’ve been answering like “networking, learning experience, and working on an interesting project”

[muted leaf]

anyone junior without internship experience without internship offer so far? I just wanna cry 🥲

[jolly flint]

ThoughtSpot is doing an UNPAID internship, and get this PhDs are preferred https://www.thoughtspot.com/careers-listing?gh_jid=2367852

[still gazelle]

PhD preferred, software engineer and unpaid shouldn’t even be in the same job listing.

[thick ridge]

that you want to contribute to the companies mission

[runic tinsel]

PhD students would pounce at this tbh

[loud hollow]

how was your interview @thick ridge

[loud raft]

@thick ridge clap interview cheeks today???? whats the word bro

[loud hollow]

on god

[thick ridge]

@loud raft @loud hollow it was pretty alright, messed up a few trivia questions but hopefully was able to articulate well enough

i have the team interviews tomorrow so hopefully I can talk my way in

[runic tinsel]

this is illegal shit lmao

[muted leaf]

does this just mean to put github link? is there some kind of an assessment i need to complete beforehand?

[runic tinsel]

company run by an IITian so im not surprised one bit tbh

[obtuse otter]

Oooh good one ty

[muted leaf]

oh shoot didn't check enoug

nvm

[limber hazel]

phd students are fueled by passion, not money

[loud hollow]

is this for summer

[thick ridge]

spring/fall

[still gazelle]

[thick ridge]

uh idk

it's an open term internship/co-op

just choose when u do it

so sure ig

[still gazelle]

thats sick man

[thick ridge]

[lone orbit]

no i didn't

[lone orbit]

you need to complete their internship challenge before applying. should be in the job description

[loud hollow]

can u dm me too @thick ridge

👀👀👀

[dapper shard]

Until they need money cause passion doesn’t put food on the table.

[tulip jay]

have you done it? I believe its due the 17th right?

[golden junco]

when was the best time to apply to summer 2021 internships

[turbid river]

As soon as they came out which was mostly August-October

[still gazelle]

october is kinda late to apply

For some companies

[sinful tinsel]

Which company?

[dapper shard]

back in august and september. maybe even july for some of the really early ones. those were mainly quants though

[sinful tinsel]

Isn’t July early tho?

[dapper shard]

july is early yeah

again mainly the quants opened that early

[sinful tinsel]

Like end of July?

[dapper shard]

yes

[soft hound]

any tips on how to prepare for object oriented design?

any books or something

[dapper shard]

have you done oop programming before ?

[soft hound]

i know like a little bit but i think its pretty safe to say im a beginner

[dapper shard]

hmm

idk any books

but if you look at like some simple projects like how to make a card game between two places or a chess or checkers game and then look at the oop design

that might help

for terminology though

🤷‍♂️

[still gazelle]

blackjack is so good for OOP

[soft hound]

yeah i guess looking at code could help

[dapper shard]

i don't remember the most things about oop terminology but i can do design stuff with it

[soft hound]

i kinda wanted to learn it more systematically though if u know what i mean

[dapper shard]

if you need to know like oop trivia and stuff then look up some oop interview questions about terminology is probably the best thing i would say do

[still gazelle]

have u not taken an oop class

[soft hound]

im in first year lol

[dapper shard]

ah

no wonder

[still gazelle]

its usually covered in the entry level CS course

[dapper shard]

it was covered in my second semester of first year personally

[soft hound]

nah we did racket in our first cs course

[still gazelle]

racket?

[dapper shard]

[soft hound]

yeah lol

[still gazelle]

wtf is that

[soft hound]

functional programming

[dapper shard]

my first semester of CS was C++ functional programming

[still gazelle]

i see

[soft hound]

[still gazelle]

my first sem was the basics of C++. pointers, dynamic memory, rule of 3, linked lists, inheritance + polymorph

[humble saddle]

do you go to uchicago

lol yeah

[soft hound]

nah lol

i go to loo

[hollow hawk]

[soft hound]

[humble saddle]

their intro class is functional programming?

[soft hound]

[humble saddle]

that's neat

[hollow hawk]

i think mit's was as well a few years ago

it was scheme i heard

[humble saddle]

think it's python now

[hollow hawk]

yea

[humble saddle]

damn, functional programming as an introduction seems kinda rough

[hollow hawk]

i actually think it's easier .-. i feel like thinking in terms of recursion is more intuitive

for example, in racket there are no for loops, so u have to get really good at recursion

and lists are defined recursively, so it helps a lot in the long run in terms of thinking abt cs

[humble saddle]

but getting good at recursion doesn't sound as easy as loops

[still gazelle]

bro what that sounds aids

[hollow hawk]

yea it might be more intuitive for some, but it might feel like a steep learning curve that will be helpful in the long run

[humble saddle]

that'd prob weed out quite a bit of people

[hollow hawk]

yea true

[lone orbit]

Yes its due on 17th, i will start after Wednesday 🙂 it shouldn’t be that bad considering they only want you to implement 2 things at minimum

[muted leaf]

are they just expecting the backend side of it or a functional full web app?

[lone orbit]

I would do some front end to interact with the backend, you cannot rely on them to test your app with http requests

But wouldn’t spend much time on making the front end look good

[dapper shard]

not that bad tbh

[runic tinsel]

anyone here get an interview with netflix? spefically those who don't attend elite schools

[strange wraith]

I thought netflix pretty much only looks for senior engineers

[limber hazel]

I think someone did

might have been the other discord

[limber hazel]

they have ms/phd internships

[strange wraith]

ah ok

[dapper shard]

they have a couple of undergrad internships

for cloud software security engineer

and then for ML i think

[odd kraken]

I think you can also get undergrad intern if you work at a research lab that Netflix sponsors

[tacit halo]

Do u know of any?

[tacit halo]

How to cold email recruiters

[muted leaf]

ok now they'll know it's a templated cold email

[jolly lintel]

lol, I just saw this post too.

[narrow patrol]

any consensus on what can and cannot be done on work laptop?

like, is music or smthn ok?

[worn breach]

Take in consideration they can see everything you do. So like don’t do anything you don’t want them to know about

[sonic badger]

my company told me

do wtvr u want, just dont download stupid shit

i was like

aiiiight

like i see my bosses and shit on fb

I havent gone on fb on mine

but discord ye

[thick ridge]

i would not go on discord lol

[sinful oar]

i’d download spotify if only i had admin access on mine

[twin obsidian]

Can’t you use Spotify through the browser?

[terse torrent]

Or download admin perms

[sinful oar]

true im just used to the desktop version

[sonic badger]

Yeah, I see what ur saying, but I use my laptop for school shit and I need discord for that

[abstract wagon]

Assert your dominance by using Leetcode, visiting competitor website and working on your personal projects

[icy juniper]

I've leetcoded on a company laptop before

[abstract wagon]

This is what Zark Muckerberg would do

[icy juniper]

and seen plenty of other people do it as well

[narrow patrol]

use all of work laptop power to mine crypto 😎

[abstract wagon]

How do people interview while employed?

Like students that do fall internships

[icy juniper]

take a day off maybe?

or half day

I've also seen someone skip lunch to do a 45m interview

[sonic badger]

ngl

[narrow patrol]

just do it during your work day when you have no meetings

[sonic badger]

ive done some shit i probly shouldnt

[narrow patrol]

on personal computer

[sonic badger]

but ive also definitely leetcoded on my laptop

not gonna work on personal projects tho

[abstract wagon]

Thanks tcislife

[sonic badger]

cause of the slight change i make a buck

and then it becomes their property

[narrow patrol]

you are welcome super nostradamus

[abstract wagon]

I think that on WFH you can do anything outside meetings right?

[icy juniper]

@sonic badger

did u hear back from amazon yet

i have my interview in an hour and a half lol

[abstract wagon]

How many meetings are there for an intern ? Each day?

I have zero idea of what I will do starting from the basics stuff

[abstract wagon]

Good luck!

[icy juniper]

Thank you!

[sonic badger]

no, my location changed on my portal tho

...surprisingly

good luck!

[formal finch]

I just do it during my lunch break.

[twin obsidian]

this is going to be different for everyone but I’d imagine at least 1 daily stand up meeting

[icy juniper]

Doesn't that mean you're going to get an offer,

Also ty!

[sonic badger]

idk

people seem to say that

but idk

i thought the interview didnt go well

well, the behavioural part seemed to be fine

but i didnt code a solution for the tech q

[sinful tusk]

hey can someone help me with something

[mossy swan]

@icy juniper good luck!!

[icy juniper]

Thank you!

[final hawk]

i just saw someone making a happy to announce post but they listed the offers they got

i get posting where you'll go over the summer but listing your offers is in poor taste...

[thick ridge]

bruh

it's really gotten out of control imo

[silk ridge]

im gonna list every company i applied to

[thick ridge]

people posting their grades just because there's nothing else to flex

it's become such a dick measuring contest

[final hawk]

i can kind of get posting grades if you had a really rough semester but you were able to pull through personally i woudln't post my grades

but just listing your offers is

i can't get that lol

[thick ridge]

It's the same reason for posting your grades I'd say

"I had a rough semester but look how great I am at recruiting/school give me validation"

[final hawk]

hmm that's true

i'l do that if i see it again

cause i closed out of linkedin

[slow gale]

Would u guys say the "cracking the coding interview" book is worth it?

[pulsar shadow]

yeah but it's not like you can't learn without the book

free pdfs online if you don't wanna buy it lol

[slow gale]

I kinda want to buy a physical copy if I do use it cuz writing in the book and using post-its would be helpful

Amazon scheduled my interview in 1 month lol so I need to tryhard a month of studying

[pulsar shadow]

good luck king

[slow gale]

ty man, when's yours?

[thick ridge]

ctci is overkill for amazon interview most of the time

just do amz tagged and get good at traversals

[narrow patrol]

^^seconding traversal & recursion

[pulsar shadow]

XD

[thick ridge]

haha

[strange wraith]

Do y’all like CTCI?

I’m really not a fan of the structure

Idk why

[thick ridge]

think epi is better

[strange wraith]

^^

EPI is great

[sonic badger]

ye not a fan of CTCI either

idk what epi is

[strange wraith]

CTCI is just old and a random mash of shit

Elements of Programming Interviews

Solid book

[sonic badger]

oh

[cyan valley]

crack the coding interview?

the book right

[strange wraith]

Yeh

[cyan valley]

I need to get better at DP no cap

Imagine landing OAs but failing cuz u stoopid

thats me

😦

[strange wraith]

OAs lowkey harder than a lot of interviews I had LOL

[sonic badger]

not me

my oas have been pretty easy so far

amazon oas was ez af

[cyan valley]

amazon's OA is legit easy

Yet my stooopid ass

:((((((

[sonic badger]

everything amazon is rng

[pulsar shadow]

sadge

[sonic badger]

some people get much harder OAs than others

10 days

[pulsar shadow]

check your portal, it should update wends/thursday

my portal updated before I even got the email

[sonic badger]

been refreshing my portal non stop since location change

[pulsar shadow]

You got the job, I believe 🙏

[sonic badger]

so

uhh

did ur location change

or did u just get an L

cause i thought i was gonna fail

but location change

@abstract wagon

thats good

im just wondering

thx

also, congrats on the role u got that ur happy with

[narrow patrol]

but.... but what about reaching the arbitrary acronym that we all seek?

/s if it wasnt obvious 😂

[sterile holly]

what percentage of people pass final round for fb? I just passed first round

[strange wraith]

Don’t think there’s any hard stats but second round is pretty much identical to first

[timber sky]

How do you send LinkedIn connection request where they require their email to send? Is there any hack that we can use?

[twilit mesa]

I believe it was on intern salary

but i asked someone and they had told me 33$

[muted leaf]

thanks for info

jmpc is probably pretty much full right

[loud hollow]

https://www.linkedin.com/posts/sakshirambhia_internship-techinterview-faang-activity-6754713685882638336-gPiX

@final hawk was it this one lol

[final hawk]

YES

even mentioning her final round she didn't get an offer from...

she is advertising her service thingy though so i suppose listing all those things would get attention

[terse torrent]

BRUH SHE COLD MESSAGED ME

asking about how google snapshot went

[final hawk]

she added me and i accepted and then i didn't want her stuff on my linkedin feed anymore so i removed her

[terse torrent]

i didn't make it past snapshot somehow

LOL

[final hawk]

but then her posts get a lot of attention so it still shows up on my feed

[terse torrent]

yep

[loud hollow]

LOOL

[final hawk]

yea i usually unfollow people who make a lot of those kinsd of posts on linkedin

or unadd them if i'm connected with them

idk i'm more interested in seeing updates on the people i know and stuff

not really linkedin inspirational posts or smthg

[twin obsidian]

what do you look at the LinkedIn timeline for

[muted leaf]

I just dont go on linkedin

i just go on whenever I think im so full of ego

[thick ridge]

so cringe

[pale coyote]

yeah i blocked linkedin for myself lol

[vivid lintel]

Lmaoo

[pale coyote]

was going on it way too much and got tired of seeing "iM eXciTed tO aNNouNcE I wiLl bE iNterNiNg aT aMaZoN tHiS sUmMeR"

[narrow patrol]

haahah all the ppl from this server making posts

[thick ridge]

exactly me

[vivid lintel]

"I got interviewed but wasn't good enough to get the job"
Still brags about it
Like???

[twin obsidian]

But when you were going on it too much what were you hoping to see?

honest question

[pale coyote]

i think i was just comparing myself to others

[muted leaf]

😬 what if she is looking at this chat

[still gazelle]

only the best are on linkedin

[thick ridge]

hopefully she is

[pale coyote]

looking through profiles of people who came up in my feed

[thick ridge]

so she knows its cringe

[narrow patrol]

yea i did that thing where i compare my accomplishments to everyone else's combined accomplishments

and feel mediocre

🙂

[pale coyote]

lets be real

[muted leaf]

some people need it too

too bad they get fanngmulaa

[pale coyote]

we're all mediocre lol

none of us know what we're doing

[muted leaf]

bragging is ok as long as you dont slap someone else with it

recently experienced

[earnest musk]

smile

[pale coyote]

i dont think i could ever make linkedin posts about announcing stuff

[cyan valley]

It's branding

Just do it

Its for the #clout

[pale coyote]

last year when i was struggling hard i got legit depressed whenever i saw those

[pale coyote]

bruh

[thick ridge]

my shit won't get any reach anyways lmao

[cyan valley]

im memeing

lol

[narrow patrol]

🙂 ?

[twin obsidian]

Anyone used these settings before?

[cyan valley]

If u use those

[thick ridge]

i'm not even struggling and i get depressed when i see them

[cyan valley]

u can't see who views ur profile

[simple saffron]

i always do the last one

[narrow patrol]

^

[twin obsidian]

that’s it? I can still view jobs?

[still gazelle]

hamza makes me depressed

[earnest musk]

bruh

[silk ridge]

yeah im on that setting cuz no one views my profile

[earnest musk]

i tweeted that everyday i wake up, i check linkedin, and i cry and honestly it still holds

[cyan valley]

u can view jobs yeah

but if like a recruiter views ur prof

u won't know bout it

i think u need premium for that anyway

[thick ridge]

sometimes u do not always tho

[twin obsidian]

Yea that’s fine. Cool thx for clarifying

[narrow patrol]

premium is dumb

[cyan valley]

^

premium is pretty dumb

[narrow patrol]

even w/ premium others with premium can still go in private mode

and thats about the only benefit afaik

[cyan valley]

linkedin profile is just glorified resume

nocap

[pale coyote]

agreed

[narrow patrol]

imagine paying hundreds of dollars just to make a resume :kekw:

[pale coyote]

is just your resume fitted to be social media lol

[cyan valley]

pLeAsEd to AccEpT oFfEr @ FAANG

[muted leaf]

do you have an offer? just curious

[cyan valley]

bro

the funniest posts

are the ones who say they are not interning

at one place

but 3 places at ONCE

I saw this one girl

It was legit

Snap, Google, and some other thing

[earnest musk]

i mean yeah i signed somewhere p good but still it aint fun

[cyan valley]

I was like homie leave some for the rest of us LOL

[earnest musk]

^^^

spittin facts

[cyan valley]

How do u even do 3 at once lmfaoooooo

[narrow patrol]

its not 3 at once lol

its 3 for the year

[muted leaf]

do you mind if i ask which comp

[narrow patrol]

winter/summer/fall

[cyan valley]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Jeeeeeeeeeeez

Im stupid LOL

[muted leaf]

I really shouldve taken

gap year

[narrow patrol]

they just say it all at once bc 3 posts is excessive

and cause 1 post w/ 3 big ns is a big flex ig

[cyan valley]

lowkey

gap year makes

alot more sense now

considering there are a ton of

co ops

and stuff for springfall

[narrow patrol]

dude im legit wondering this

[earnest musk]

its all to put names on ur resume lol

[narrow patrol]

no ive actually been wondering

should i just graduate?

[cyan valley]

bro its high school college apps

all over again

just graduate lol

[narrow patrol]

or try and do a bunch of big tech internships?

[cyan valley]

^^

[split night]

clout ?? lol

[cyan valley]

u don't need like

[narrow patrol]

ppl keep telling me to take 4 years but idk why

[cyan valley]

12039123 internships

[narrow patrol]

but i have FOMO if i grad early tbh

[cyan valley]

if u grad early u save a whole years worth of tution

[pale coyote]

lol @ that dude with 10 internships

[muted leaf]

10 intenrships?????????

bruh

[cyan valley]

Do
Tech
Finance
Healthcare
(Whatever else there is)

Not 10

[split night]

again lol

[pale coyote]

theres some linkedin influencer who has a headline of "10-time intern"

[twin obsidian]

Yeah feel like gap year can be a big waste

Losing out on opportunity cost

[pale coyote]

hamza something iirc

[twin obsidian]

• paying tuition

[cyan valley]

^

Saving years worth of tuition + getting job 1 year earlier = lot of $

[stiff vessel]

there’s nothing wrong with doing more internships if you feel like you get value from them

[split night]

^

[stiff vessel]

I tried my best to stack internships because I loved the experience of spending 3/4 months in a new city personally

[narrow patrol]

whats the value of intern as opposed to FT

[sinful oar]

it’s all about the money for me

[stiff vessel]

It’s a rare opportunity to experience that

[narrow patrol]

FT is better for money tho..

[real nacelle]

I would 100% delay my graduation by a semester to intern at cool unicorn or something

[stiff vessel]

You still can tho

[final hawk]

yea i'm doing more internships cause ofm y gap year

since i ain't doing online school

zoom uni sucks

[sinful oar]

both is good

[twin obsidian]

fair

[narrow patrol]

hmm but like if you had no classes left to graduate

[stiff vessel]

It’s not just about money, I wanted to do my full 4 years and had excess credits so I took time off school

[narrow patrol]

would you still extend

[split night]

why do online school, when you can get paid to work remote

[narrow patrol]

suppose you didnt have any school left to graduate

or you had like 1 class

would you still push

[sinful oar]

i’m also going to school at the same time, i don’t take gap years

[cyan valley]

time to apply to fall 2021

internships

and delay graduation!

[final hawk]

idk personally i want my last year in college to be in person

and not remote

[cyan valley]

sam

[final hawk]

so if i could extend i would

[narrow patrol]

oh i see, i kinda gave up on that possibility tbh

[final hawk]

well it depends on a lot of things

[stiff vessel]

I wouldn’t do extra internships if I had to delay graduation past 4 years tho

[narrow patrol]

whys that

4 is arbitrary after all lmao

[final hawk]

yea i'm not sure what i'd do to delay graduation past 4 years

[pale coyote]

wouldnt a fall internship get in the way of new grad recruiting

yes lol

[cyan valley]

Google tesla salesforce microsoft

What is this mans even doing

[sinful oar]

in what way

[narrow patrol]

i feel like its kinda unnecessary tbh

lol

[cyan valley]

Its like hoeing around

[narrow patrol]

to do 5 big n internships

[cyan valley]

but for companies

🤣

[stiff vessel]

Idk maybe irrational but I want to graduate with my friends

[cyan valley]

Just stick to 1 at that point

[narrow patrol]

haahah i see

my friends are taking diff amounts of time

[pale coyote]

your work hours would conflict with interview time slots

[tulip jay]

Does anyone have experience with Twitter's recruitment process?

[narrow patrol]

so i cant graduate with all of them ;/

[final hawk]

for ddog they're giving me an offer in september 2021 so it'll still be on the same timeline as other new grad offers 😄

[pale coyote]

also if fall is in person there's that too

[final hawk]

or like the offer letter

ohh you mean interviews

[narrow patrol]

wait are you doing fall 21 internships or no?

[final hawk]

hmm if you're interning on the east coast and you're interviewing for companies on the west coast

it acutally works out

[final hawk]

nononono

[stiff vessel]

it’s tough to recruit with in person fall internship

[final hawk]

like full time offer in spetember 2021

[stiff vessel]

was fine with virtual

[narrow patrol]

ooooo

[pale coyote]

yeah unless i were to hypothetically get ddog or apple idt id do fall intern

[narrow patrol]

i thought you were doing internship

in fall

[pale coyote]

id rather just graduate a sem early

[cyan valley]

grad in dec = whack

thats just me doe

[final hawk]

fall 2020 😄

not fall 2021

[cyan valley]

shove in a co op

and make it spring

[split night]

no I would graduate. I did school and internship at the same time. I will graduate on time

[narrow patrol]

ohhhh ok so you will just graduate in spring and then do summer internship after that?
