coming from a lower class household im already told im going to make all the money for the rest of the family 🥴 but yeah i agree

formal prism
#

is it okay to ask for 1 week off a 4 month internship?

#

i also want to ask to extend the internship by 4 months later on as well, so...

storm stream

azure junco
#

None

#

Bank your pto

#

And cash out when contract endsn

#

But also I feel like taking a 3 day weekend once or twice is okay

#

Idk if much more looks good since an intern doesn't really do much in the grand scheme of things anyway

formal prism
#

ahh i see

#

my cousins getting married in a different country

tawny zephyr
#

I'd talk to your manager and be real with them

#

and try to work out a solution

#

like some remote work or smth along the lines

formal prism
#

but im not sure if i can work in another country

#

and the wedding isn't worth risking a potential internship extension

For me I accrued vacation days so I took a 1 week vacay during the first 4 months, extended the Internship by another 4 months after talking to my manager then took another vacation that term too

If I get done with school in late Aug 2025, my grad is in Oct 2025, can I apply for both 2025 new grad and 2026 new grad positions if I don't get 2025 ones

#

or just apply for 2026 ones since my grad is so late

It’s crazy. I was really hopeful there would be a few new grad jobs popping up in the new year but no it’s not gonna happen. Crazy to think that this application season was way worse for new grads than last year’s which was already the worst in recent years

i prefer leveraging my vast real estate portfolio

quartz ridge
#

But is it better to get a tech support role

#

Or just find any job

#

Like do you print off your resume and submit it in person

fossil field
#

Yes ^^^you print it and go in every place you can in person

#

i sent 1500 apps online for developer. Got no responses, needed to pay bills so i applied to over 300 online min wage, got nothing. Then i went in person to over 80 places. got nothing.

#

be prepared to grind

#

i only got a job as a dev cause i started working on my connections and got it through that

#

and i have red lobster host experience and other resturant experience and still got nothing for min wage jobs.....

#

If you didn’t from at least 1 place after 1500 that’s just your resume bro

this is very true, got a friend making 130k base working as tech sales and he gets to travel and work whenever

I got a question for all yall new grads that still dont have a job yet. Do you guys know oop? Like if i told you can you make a Person class for a bank could you do it without googling solution? Could you access apis in ur code and use it (weather api/open ai for examples) and do something with them? Do you understand some sql and db relationships? If i told you to design a table could you do it or query a table?

fossil field
#

omg this just happened 30 mins ago. I was walking to my car after getting groceries and saw a homeless guy covered in his own feces and piss. What caught my eye was that he had AndreFullStacknow written on his shirt. I walked up to him and asked are you really AndreFullStacknow from cscareers.dev, and he started shaking uncontrollably and yelling "rave rave rave". I was gonna give him some money but that just freaked me out so i left. Am i the asshole? what do you guys think?

#

So for OOP, that’s a cs fundamentals class

vernal sigil
quartz ridge
#

Most people have called APIs that’s also like a first year cs thing

#

Sql too

#

Db stuff honestly I forgot all the shit about referential integrity and those random db schema crap

#

With the crow feet bs

#

Like one to many LmAO idr

#

How to query a table well yes basic queries ppl should know

azure junco
#

assuming oop is good 🥱

#

real devs do functional programming

quartz ridge
#

Random complex joins and shit u can jsut google

#

Like no point in memorizing anything when there’s google stack overflow and any LLM

#

Like ChatGPT at ur disposal

#

Thing about cs is it’s not about knowing these things from mem

#

It’s about how well u can google and implement the results

#

Like yes it’s cool to know regex and a bunch of shit like complex git commands sed grep awk shit but it’s not gonna be that useful

#

Google is ur friend

fossil field
#

for sure but there are some that completely dont know if any logic

#

thats what im saying ya know but peeps dont know the most basic to even know what to google

#

swear to god

#

guess its just york students im referring to

storm stream
lapis tide
#

Bro do you even know peepshit farmdinkle

quartz ridge
#

Do yall use GitHub copilot

fossil field
#

and algoma/conestega

quartz ridge
#

Copilot legit changed the course of my life

fossil field
#

i prefer chatgpt

#

but is it better?

quartz ridge
#

It has autocomplete and basically takes into account context from ur whole codebase

#

It’s rly useful

#

Makes coding repetitive stuff way fasted

fossil field
#

and it doesnt use the codebase for training?

azure junco
#

I have never used AI to write code

#

learn to write it yourself

fossil field
#

I use it all the time, it does the handy work for u and for stuff i need to look into more i do myself

#

basically my code goes from junior to senior level with a little amount of prompts

azure junco
#

define senior level code

#

usually senior level means that you are doing something core to the product, not necessarily ""code quality""

#

that is a very subjective term

fossil field
#

meaning it follows best coding practices

#

and you learn super quick from it cause u read and understand the code and makes you a better programmer

azure junco
fossil field
#

and honestly its just like a better google. Like not even using it for creating code, it can match ur exact search while sometimes hard to find on google

azure junco
#

there's no absolute correct way to write code

fossil field
#

which is usually learned through just experience which may take time

real mason
azure junco
#

i disagree, i consider factory an anti pattern

#

i prefer builder in all cases that factory can be implemented

#

hence why i mean it's subjective

fossil field
#

builder is mostly used

azure junco
#

they're both technically "good" depending on who you ask

fossil field
#

but yea in general it can make major improvents

azure junco
#

builder + strategy > factory is my personal preference

fossil field
#

in terms of like time it takes to complete code, makes it more effiecnt, shit u would miss and even seniors would miss

azure junco
#

basically my point is that you can't necessarily say that chatgpt helps you write "senior level code" because the idea of being senior code is very much company dependent

#

code style at google is very different from code style at amzn

#

for instance

quartz ridge
#

What is builder lol

#

I know factory and singleton

#

wtf is builder

azure junco
#

that can be chained

quartz ridge
#

Oh ok

azure junco
#

basically

#

that are modular as well i think (not necessarily)

quartz ridge
#

wtf is Mickey Mouse

Oh word

lunar sandal

its over for bro

quartz ridge
#

It is a niche skill set

#

When it come to the job

#

ye snowflake won't hav easy problems

quartz ridge
#

Well

turbid mesa
#

Might as well try

quartz ridge
#

Leetcode is good for algorithm

#

But job has little algorithm

real island
#

Snowflake you have to pass resume screen too

quartz ridge
#

U will not see a hash map

#

Ever on the job

real island
#

People get 3/3 and get rejected

broken whale
quartz ridge
#

U will only use it to pass algorithm

#

At big tech

#

You will rarely see this like heap

#

Map etc

#

On job

real island
quartz ridge
#

Unless u are working as an algo dev

real island
#

Stop promoting lies

quartz ridge
#

At HRT

turbid mesa
#

Man snowflake the only OA I’ve gotten so far 😭

real island
#

I will tell Juda

quartz ridge
#

Otherwise …. Not very likely

broken whale
#

i work at google kitchener and i got asked lc easy

quartz ridge
#

It is unlikely to have this use case for on job

#

why’s it auto and 3 LC hards

drifting shore
#

lol

quartz ridge
#

Unless u work a niche

#

That has algorithms

drifting shore
#

its 3 lc hards cuz its auto

quartz ridge

leetcode costs u jobs

lapis tide

what is tree?

broken whale
quartz ridge
#

Beyond usaco plat there is not much

lunar sandal
#

if they could lc would not be a filter

quartz ridge
#

Usaco plat is achievable for most ppl

#

Most ppl can do lc med

#

Lc hard is hard for most average ppl

#

U need to be gifted..

lunar sandal

...

drifting shore

usaco plat is much harder than lc hards.

lunar sandal

R U CRAZY 😠

quartz ridge
#

No look it has modern tech stack

#

Using react

Lot of skill acquisition

magic ether
#

hashmap is like the most common thing on the job

lapis tide
#

i bet you am jobless e. mad

quartz ridge
magic ether
#

i worked as a backend developer, and an algo developer

quartz ridge
#

You will not use these technique for job

lunar sandal
#

ignore

quartz ridge
#

Most pattern for leetcode will not be used

magic ether
#

true kind of

quartz ridge
#

Map yes maybe it will have a use case

lapis tide
#

i work as programmer for developer inc

quartz ridge
#

But scope will be limited for most pattern

magic ether
#

but it helps you think about problems in a different way

quartz ridge
#

DFS will never be used except you are traverse folder maybe

magic ether
#

leetcode made me a better programmer

quartz ridge
#

And even then it is under good

#

Hood

#

What is main point

magic ether
#

^^

#

this

quartz ridge
#

Many ppl can’t do leetcode?

magic ether
#

can you grind it out, can yo learn

quartz ridge
#

I don’t really get it…

magic ether
#

most people dont have the grit or the natural intelligence

#

either or

soft hamlet
magic ether
#

to grind it out

quartz ridge
#

But there are so many leetcode monkey. God tier leetcode but average or subpar dev….

lapis tide
#

ryan

soft hamlet
#

I'm dumb af

quartz ridge
#

The mapping is broken.

soft hamlet
#

Hi

magic ether
#

whats up ryan

lunar sandal
#

nah LC is just legalized IQ test thats standardized after companies ran after FAANG business model. Lets not reverse engineer why it exists shall we

lapis tide
soft hamlet
#

Carleton people?

magic ether
#

excited for 3005?

quartz ridge
#

Leetcode monkey so common!!! Bloomberg is full of lc monkey…

soft hamlet
magic ether
#

yes its liteyear pookie

soft hamlet
#

EASY EASY EASY

magic ether
#

different account

#

EASY EASY EASY

soft hamlet
#

Ahhhh

lunar sandal
#

its the SAT of SWE

soft hamlet
#

Well we're gonna easily finish this shit so

magic ether
#

did u see that databases project thing

soft hamlet
#

Yeah

#

Not gonna do it

magic ether
#

like what the eff

#

2 weeks to do that

soft hamlet
#

I'm going to a conference

magic ether
#

i dont even know enough

#

ah nice

soft hamlet
#

Eh it's not that bad

quartz ridge
#

Anyone can become good at lc

#

But I will say

soft hamlet
#

It just takes a good like 20 hours or so

#

Not worth it for me personally

quartz ridge
#

Is u can have low iq and be sDET

#

Or was

soft hamlet
#

I have other things to do

quartz ridge
#

QA

lunar sandal
#

starlust u got some unorthodox takes

magic ether
#

yeah 20 hours

#

is a lot

lunar sandal
#

although i half agree

quartz ridge
#

All QA can be done using pure cahtgpt

#

ChatGPT can write any unit test or integration load test

lunar sandal
#

respect button

quartz ridge
#

It will be a replaced field….

magic ether
#

QA is hard in adifferent way

quartz ridge
#

QA is dead.

magic ether
#

QA isnt just writing tests bro

lunar sandal
#

QA is dead.

quartz ridge
#

It is main part of it

soft hamlet
#

I want to do SRE dogesmile

magic ether
#

working with a good QA is god send

no way bro said carrot on a stick

#

The entire world is AI

magic ether
#

no experience but have opinions

lunar sandal
magic ether
#

is crazy

broken whale
#

how's zon treating u?

drifting shore
#

lc is the test to see if u hav conviction to do boring shit for a long time

quartz ridge
#

Like test suite after test suite

#

With no real purpose

magic ether
#

yeah thats the wrong impression

quartz ridge
#

Just take dev code and test it

soft hamlet
magic ether
#

^

quartz ridge
#

Can u explain what it is

#

Beyond test suites#

broken whale
#

sauce referral @safe light

magic ether
#

you dont write much code as a QA

quartz ridge
#

I’m curious in it

soft hamlet
#

You also have to manage pipeline dogesmile

#

Or some companies I guess

drifting shore
#

pls give me offer

soft hamlet
#

I also did the dev ops side of things too

magic ether
#

QA is different everywhere

broken whale
#

graduating in may

broken whale
#

still no zon oa

magic ether
#

but in general its making sure things work the way they should, writing suites is part of it, but also doing blackbox testing, whitebox, etc

#

devs are bad at making sure things always work

lapis tide
#

bro said black box testing and white box testing like thats not the only two types of testing

quartz ridge
broken whale
#

wwatchu mean bruv

#

i got 2 yrs of intern xp

lapis tide
#

there are two integters between 0 and 1

magic ether
#

ohh

soft hamlet
#

E2E are fun

#

Lowkey

pliant lance
#

QA is very important at scale for complex systems

lapis tide
#

what other types of testing are there

magic ether
#

e2e, regression, smoke, data layers

quartz ridge
#

So it’s just unit integration load end to end load etc

#

So it’s basically just writing tests

lapis tide
#

theyre just black box testing

quartz ridge
#

Isn’t smoke test just testing some sample stuff

#

Not real test

naive shell
#

Where is here?

quartz ridge
#

What’s data layer test

soft hamlet
#

You actually have to understand the system to test it, unlike a code monkey

quartz ridge
#

Isn’t regression just check backward compatible

soft hamlet
lapis tide
#

reg test doesnt mean anything

quartz ridge
#

What is data layer tho?

#

So smoke is manual test

magic ether
#

testing the interactions between ur data layer

lapis tide
#

youre either testing code aware or not code aware

#

preferably not code aware

magic ether
#

^

#

i guess so

lapis tide
quartz ridge
#

Hm I don’t rly get data layer concept

#

What’s code aware

#

Like do u understand code?

lapis tide
#

white box

#

best summarized as testing implementation

magic ether
#

u can black box and test implementation tho im pretty sure

lapis tide
#

how to do that 🤔

magic ether
#

it depends what u mean about implementation

#

like the implementation of a particular part of the system

lapis tide
#

yeah i guess theres a gray boundary area

magic ether
#

like how this function or whatever

lapis tide
#

the terms are more for guidance anyway arent they

magic ether
#

yeah exactly

#

anyways QA does a lot

#

but its not too fun

lapis tide
#

noo they just press button that says run tests

magic ether
#

LOL

#

devs should be writing unit tests

#

as long as the tests are less complex than the code they write

quartz ridge
#

I use gpt

magic ether
#

because if theyre the same complexity, than whats to say you write the test right in the first place

quartz ridge
#

To write all my twst

magic ether
#

lol

quartz ridge
#

Never have I written any test

magic ether
#

you have to use your brain, think of edge cases and stuff

quartz ridge
#

Is it okay to write all code using chatgpt

magic ether
#

fuck no

#

LOL

#

how are u gonna do it if u dont have access to GPT

#

or if GPT cant help you

quartz ridge
#

GPT can always help

magic ether
#

like at a job where gpt is forbidden

quartz ridge
#

It has terabyte data

magic ether
#

???

#

it cant help with every problem

quartz ridge
#

For example which one

#

It has internet access

magic ether
#

there are novel problems, or uncommon problems

quartz ridge
#

It has reasoning capability

magic ether
#

that it doesnt give the right answer to do

quartz ridge
#

Everything is solved w existing patterns

magic ether
#

it does not have reasoning.

quartz ridge
#

It does

magic ether
#

explain

quartz ridge
#

You provide it something that is not in training data it can decide to search web

#

That is reasoning

#

It has multiple knowledge source

magic ether
#

that is not reasoning. it is searching

quartz ridge
#

Original training data, scrape web

#

Its reasoning when to leverage diff tools

#

That is reasoning

magic ether
#

okay so is an if statement reasoning?

quartz ridge
#

It’s not its semantic based

#

It’s not going to use if else to parse ur natural language query

#

It’s using embedding and reasoning

magic ether
#

you realize that it doesnt understand words right

#

it parses them as tokens

quartz ridge
#

Understand is an ambiguous term

#

Do you understand words

magic ether
#

and uses statistics to generate the next possible tokens

quartz ridge
#

Or are you just parsing them to form understanding

#

Understanding is an ambiguous term in itself

#

Its uses semantic search with vector store

#

And pulling relevant data from its trained corpus

#

Basically knn

magic ether
#

okay i see your point, but i dont use statistics to predict the best word to use next based on your query

quartz ridge
#

What is understanding?

#

Understanding, natural language, meaning

magic ether
#

how so?

quartz ridge
#

It’s hard to truly understand these lol

#

We’re using previous language constructs

#

To construct our sentences

#

There are commonly used patterns in language that fit our conversational context

#

And use case

#

We are incrementally building a sentence baed on tokens that have close association and belong together to form cohesive thought

magic ether
#

okay sure, but thats not natural language processing is it

#

i dont incrementally build my sentences the same way GPT does tho.

#

i have thoughts and choose words based on those thoughts

#

im not understanding the sentence, can you rephrase

#

language is just that, a language to communicate ideas generated by the electric meat in my head

#

im not incrementally creating my sentences token by token

#

i do choose the words incrementally sure, but not the thought itself

quartz ridge
#

But are you not leveraging common constructs to build out your sentences

#

Thoughts are collections of tokens

#

Patterns of tokens commonly found together to communicate some thought

#

Kind of like motifs for certain thoughts

magic ether
#

kk

quartz ridge
#

Maybe your thoughts are not as granular as individual tokens being statistically pieced together. It could be a layer of abstraction on top of this.

#

You might just operate at a high level of abstraction than a GPT

magic ether
#

i think we have come into an impass. i believe thought is constructed differently in the human brain than gpt because my thoughts are ideas that i translate into an understandable form, while gpt incrementally creates those "thoughts"

quartz ridge
#

If it incrementally creates the thought it’s stil creating thought

#

You’re operating at a higher level of abstraction

magic ether
#

i said it was "thoughts" because thats just not what it is in my opinion

quartz ridge
#

What is a thought tho?

magic ether
#

this is a philosophical debate

quartz ridge
#

Isn’t it just a concept or idea

magic ether
#

it has no understanding of that concept or idea

quartz ridge
#

Like a string of tokens is a thought no? Or does a thought have to entail something specific

magic ether
#

like why can't (or couldn't) gpt count the amount of letters in a word

quartz ridge
#

Is it just an intelligible string of tokens with somewhat parseable meaning

magic ether
#

or when i tell it to make something a little longer like a paragraph or two, it spits out so much?

#

its not thinking about a paragraph is

magic ether
magic ether
#

like if im asking it to write something for me

#

and its shorter than i would like

#

i say either can you add another paragraph or can you make it this many words

#

it cant do that

#

it makes it much longer

quartz ridge
#

Well it’s not a mind reader. If you specify terms that are open to interpretation with qualifiers like “little” or “slightly”

#

It’s not going to know what that entails

magic ether
#

a human would reason through that tho

quartz ridge
#

If you write “within 250 words”

#

It’ll give a better approximation

#

Well a little longer in what context. I feel like if you provided more context it would perform better

magic ether
#

forget the a little longger

#

if i say add another paragraph it just doesnt know

#

it makes it twice as long

#

there may be modules in chatgpt that can do that, but thats not what gpt is

#

like before, asking it math questions

#

it couldnt

#

because it cant do math by itself

#

is it AI that does that?

#

sure sure but is it using reason to do that?

#

woohoo

#

well that was the point of the convo

#

to listen to music

#

yeah you dont

#

is it just that though?

#

it seems possible

#

do you think in audio?

#

doubt

#

some people dont

#

i dont think in text or audio

#

i have a voice

#

but thats just my brain translating my thoughts into something parsable

#

those arent my thoughts tho

#

if it could transform it into audio surely it could transform it into text

#

thats music though

#

like thats not thoughts

#

what is AI doing here

#

i really dont see any mention of AI in the paper is what im saying

#

its been done tho

#

steven hawking

#

stephen?

#

wait im dome

#

LOL

#

im actually braindead

#

yeah thats really sick as fuck

#

but anyways you were responding to a conversation about GPT having reasoning

#

thats why i asked about reasoning

#

i really think it doesnt

#

yeah thatll be amazing

#

i am scared of the negative use cases of ai tho

Thank you guys

make it up also if u dont have good stories
