Yea
epic sauce 😄
Well yea
Will be soon
i hope people recognize their deluluness someday
Im actually working on this project to replace all the customer service reps so yea lmao
that’s crazy
why do you want to make people lose jobs
how much is mad money?
I’m business minded too
Mad money means I’m heading towards ai engineer manager and product owner
Do u really think customer reps party with HMs at raves the same way u did
depends on the company pookie
I talked to the cto he said lol
who wants to come to a rave and network???
but i have the social skills of someone in their thirties
Meeee
im saying ur pay depends on the company
so all ill say is that
There is no way u said pookie
Ur pay depends on how much money u bring the company
i did. so what?
thats just untrue
but k
unless u have shares
there is no way you said it
do they really have a large impact or scope?
It is literally true….
Because if u want to quit they don’t want you to and will pay you more
its a silly word
and then log off at 5
PMs arent really even eneded in industry
idk why they are in such demand
when they have low scope
no impact
sure or they will call ur bluff
and honestly not much influence
Maybe for big companies
on actual decisions
think about who are the actual drivers
behind implementation
like the backend
Maddies has networking rave tonight for C suite people
or frontend
Drop in
REALLY REALLY REALLY WHAT TIME
think about the impact of a staff SWE
that isnt actively coding
he willl become rusty
instead what i recommend
Starts in half an hour
I’m gonna start looking for jobs soon I got a connection I’m talking to and it’s gonna be a much higher pay rise so I’m gonna leverage that since I really like my work rn
is he do lot lot more code review
I’m joking
how much u get paid rn?
if he does code review then he will become familiar with best practice
ik dw
Bruh maddies is for washed up college grads
but some staff people
really just dont code at all
they make high level architectural decisions
mostly relying on
why would they need to code?
HADR
high availability
or dsiaster recovery
and stuff like designing scalable
fault tolerant
I do code review every 2 weeks its mandatory
highly available systems
its truly a pain to see some washed up staff swes
try to code
Ur a college grad with no job sitting at home all day?
they take longer than me and im just an intern
Alr peace going out with my girl
Code is easy
BASEDDD
ttyl man, going out with my homie
cap
i got a 5'10 dime waiting inside my car
Collab going on rn
dubs
its my 2 fav ppl in the chat
PorkML x AndreML

i have a connect 😄

Bro rejected zon for Kinaxis
😭
yeah can u send me
his contact
im a good fit for the role
ill give u some breakdown of skills
?
is that ok
i have to go pick up a dime
very soon
so its gonna have to be quick...

thanks!
Congrats u in lio bro
just lmk man
fr?
like for the role that i have connect for
do u fr have 500 leet
im numebr 1 at ontario tech university lol
for leetcode
anyays gotta go
my dime is waiting in the backseat
How do you afford a car with under 17/h
She should be at the back of the room or the bus idk
500+ 💀
ayo stop dooming
we gonna make it
lmao
grind till u rich
u gotta fall in love with the grind
otherwise be depressed and rich
i go to a shitty school but i feel like i see the path to big tech, its longer than others but doable
with a little luck and a shit ton of work doable
in this market i agree
but i think its possible
wait what school u at star?
what school were u?
oh okk
like not brock tier tho?
like the middle of the pack school?
yea exactly
UofA lol
ye
Snuck that in there
its 100 cs in the world
i feel like its these guys and then everyone else below it
compared to the rest
doesnt rly matter where else
nah it goes loo > UofT UBC >> UofA McGill >>>>>> EVERYTHING ELSE
It’s really only Waterloo and maybe UofT that’s it tbh
UBC is there too fs
Ubc is pretty easy to get into it doesn't have that much prestige
Uoft higher ranked when loo easily smokes it in getting an ai job lol
This is probably research based?
Okayy im top 10
This is not really a list tho
most schools
This is by publications basically useless
have something like this
UofT is better for AI 100%
because of research
yeah
waterloo is internship dubs
like silicon valley LOVES loo
In Canada doesn’t really matter what school it is outside of Waterloo luckily
oh nothing that serious no
also most school dont do % like waterloo
like most unis in ontario at least is just letter grades
no %
Waterloo wins in all tech spheres for getting jobs including ai, if you wanna do research to up your stats uoft is good
in canada ye
have terminal depression?
uoft ai is goated
I feel like Canadians are overrepresented in the tech space comparative to the population
i'm so stupid i could've taken a course with stephen cook and geoff hinton
Going to grab it in a minute
basically
undergrad loo >>>>>
grad skool uoft >>>>>>>>
prof's eyes literally glaze over when dealing with undergrads lmao
they love grad and research work, undergrad is just a pain for them that they ahve to put up with
true
but it is what it is
How many people are usually employed at those positions?
i wanna have some feelz
C3ai is better
So is cohere
Yall just saying random fluff like it’s to fill out a word count 😂
cohere worse than chatgpt
Don't watch them it's for your own good
Cohere pays 70/hour for interns
true but if u can some how break into big tech it becomes a lot easier
Yep I’ve seen on blind
It’s mid
Similar to mere
Meta
Prob less
Than meta actually
Like for intern or what
pork is at cohere so ignore
😂 😂
how do u know?
i'm a cohere hater
Friend works there
Yee
Open AI is us tho
If open AI was in Canada
The pay would be like 100k for me wgrad
New grad
Or smth like that
i hate that for anything interesting u gotta move to the dump that is sf/ba
Am I the right person lol
U need to make 1M a year to get 1M a year offer)
?
That’s new
I don’t chase money
I could still be that person
I could be 1 mill capable but working for 17/hour at a local startup
Bc it fits my skill set better
All I will say
Is that I will never glaze open Asi
Open AI
Ok I’ll do it
Ok I’ll do it
Ok I’ll do it
Watch em
There's nobody in this server getting past that for research
what pork whats ur position title rn?
Gonna try to get Kinaxis first
Unemployed atm
Can’t get a job
ATM
Going to try to crack Kinaxis first lol
It’s a good ass company no? @fossil field
I’m unemployed but I’m still searching for a new grad
How hard is it even to land one rn
Got no idea lol
yea decent
when did u grad?
took me 3 months
yea through cold applying no chance at all
peeps been cold applying for a year and still not getting jobs
December 2023
ah yea itll be hard
Prob similar prestige as WLU
Wilfred Laurier ngl
Or even worse
Maybe Windsor lol
University of Windsor
so basically in canada if u arent uoft or waterloo then you fall in with the rest lol
R u new grad?
graduated summer 2023
R u new grad employed
I just came back from a date with a dime. Took her around town in my Tesla was a great Friday night
Yah I write
December 2023
Grad
it was really hard i was hopeless
I’m aiming for at least 60k
i make 60k
wanted more but a job is better than no job
yea thats the thing my dream job is ai and working with python and i got to do it
yea im building a customer service chatbot that will also be able to talk to customers on the phone
hmu i can help u out i did it on the side for a while but never to deep more of " i want to do this " but now i get to
c#
but moving backend to python soon and frontend to blazor
C# and .NET framework?
yea
Oh whatt
but not like a library
no no its a decent company
we have dev server we test in
I usually deploy to QA
And just test there
Well it’s automated through Jenkins but
but yea i joined as full stack and showed interest in ai and they were starting ai projects so asked me to be on the team
learn c# or java for job
Ya my only internship was at a startup
grind ur connections i can tell youre a smart one out of most peeps here and know that connections get you the job and the job you want
Isn’t Accenture pretty good
Lot of consultants say Accenture is rly good
What about consulting companies
They hire devs right
Yeah facts. Everyone here copes and think everything is 100% rng
pay 20k if you break it
It’s the biggest cope
FOR REAL
im trying to give people the best advice but they troll me for it
Yeah for real
Why does everyone so deep in thinking it’s pure rng
Like if ur good ur good
because they think they will get their way doing nothing sitting on computer all day and not talking to people irl
For real man
okay basically my story is i graduated in august, started looking for jobs right away. Applied to 50-100 a day and made it my full time job to apply. 2 months in and only ghosts and rejections so i was like fuckkkk this i started applying for minimum wage jobs and couldnt even get that. Then i was like bro fuck this i need to work on connections and spent all my time building connections, going out and talking to people at parties too. Doing this for 2 weeks and then bam got a job with easiest interview ever
got hired on the spot after interview
so i was in same position as everyone else here but then i started doing what the majority wasnt doing
yea like 31.25
I think it’s 65k pretax
its good money more money than my internship and more money than i ever made
i got decent rent so not bad
I pay 1.5k rent
oooo sick my best friend lives dt i go there all the time
The rent here is brutal I won’t even lie
I’m by university
Ayooo
Who?
1.5k
Per month
Got 4 roommates
I’m jobless. Currently working as a barista to pay for the bills
Struggling
Facts
but yea i assume you go out pork?
frrrr
Imagine if ur weekend is the same as ur weekday
perfect chance for connections
lmao yea i feel that
i made connections with this young ceo at rebel
man i be doing coke on weekday and weekend
everyday a party
🤣 😂
jk jk jk never on weekdays anymore
Ya I do acid once a week
bahaha
I’m on adderall
i need me some
Cuz of my adhd
im on molly
a dj friend of mine is playing in cz tn i can get u tickets for free lmk
Travis Scott was there
i produce techno
Like two weeks ago or smth 😂
hcl?
yea i saw videos lmao
mfs in here doing drugs at work while I keep getting rejected
while u guys r doing coke i am grinding leetcode
work hard, play hard
I’m not doing either

see you at wallmart
tbh boba is lit
I think as long as ur weekend
auint none of us getting jobs despite grinding leetcodde
congrats on tim hortons
Why
yea why
why
i mean i do a couple hours on sat and sunday working on side projects
Stop y’all I’ll get a job 🥲
but like all day?
meh no u get better at it at the job
u get a real sense of production environment
r u guys like coding ur whole projects by yourself or are you using chatgpt for the majority
Gpt
oh no....
why by urself, ur cripling urself
chatgpt will help you so much and produce better code and faster
does copilot count
yea thats good, i dont use it personally but yea
nope
thats what i thought
code through gpt, when u tinker around with the code since gpt doesnt make perfect code you will learn through it and it will make you a better developer
like something that will take me a week with gpt to finish would take me a month by myself
Andre has good point use GPT as a skeleton improve it and then learn from it
Don’t just plug and chug
Refine and then understand
yea it doesnt work as copy and paste, a lot of times it does but not always so you have to play around and understand the code to make it work as intended
especially if its a complex method/class
Yes exactly
its the next gen of developers
not just the dev and their mind but dev + ai = unstoppable
You gotta move away from Jakes template tho
bruh no one winning till we all winning
Things get weird when doing oop with a bunch of files and classes though, well that's why I use copilot
@quartz ridge You got this shit tho ur much smarter then the peers in here
Thanks bro I can tell u got what it takes to become an ai engineer
U know what’s up and leverage the new tech
🙂 ❤️
thanks brotha means a lot, im so passionate about ai and have been since i started uni but never really went to deep with it only surface level
How do you guys use chatgpt with so many classes and dependencies
U have to prompt it correctly
you dont plug it all in, you gotta know more than just throwing it all in
you really have to give it all context you need to get better replies
Do you guys ever feel bad you're overusing the openai servers or something lmao
R u aiming for senior soon
nope, you arent senior until 5+ years no matter what anyones says
althought i might produce senior code that isnt what makes a senior dev
its experience
but intermeddiate for sure
Facts
im preforming better than all juniors in the company any they been here for over a year
Fr?
mhhmm
yea
andre insanely cracked
i understand a lot, so when a problem comes ill know how to approach it
i spent my whole life learning cause that was my interest
How long does it take most ppl to get senior?
especially astrophysics and chemistry
5-10 years
doesnt mean you cant get paid like a senior in 1-3 years tho
holy fuck Andre I just showed a screenshot of this chat to my G manager and he insists on the 1-1
u free on Saturday?
nah G isnt my priority they are too liberal
it used to be since i was a kid tho 😦 shame coroporations are shit now
andre works with piere polivere 😎
i met him lmao
Idk andre
But you are G’s priority
he was at this serbian event
Stop trolling idk Andre irl
they always be trolling to much copium for them
All they do is troll all day
yea sadly even when people give them advice
While we code with GPT
PorkML is literally ex- Netflix
gpt top tier tho not gpt-5 tho
dm for referral to Google OOP L9
nah but the only really toxic people i seen here are gpt-5 and nulname
sitting at home all day jerking to hentai
ik it hits home but thats life gpt 5
damn bro
Gpt-5 how you get that icon border
anyone got any cohere offers yet
when gpt-5 and nulname come to server im like its time to dip
Andre…
what kind of optimization problem are you solving?
he pays money to talk to people
I’m trying to help u 15x your salary
wym
i mean rn im trying to get instant responses from assistant api
@weak gazelle back of my man andre
@weak gazelle go chilla at ur mansion in harborfornt
why dou have to chill here
isn't that just swe and not ml?
gpt 5 r u writing a book?
My manager will PIP me if I don’t hire Andre for Google
whats wrong with that
its both but for this current project im building custom rag for assistant api
doing ml models for some ad services soon tho
but this project is more important
400-600 ish
literally
is loc actually a good metric?
That’s crazy
had to redo asp web api and also make some scripts in python
no lol
no its not
but sometimes theres just a lot to write but sometimes just a little which can be more complex
Andre works at a top tier startup wym
he does intense OOP optimization
everyone else is chill here buy gpt-5 and nulname
they are def super hard rn trolling everyone
tell soulks to ban them
💀
@weak gazelle @unreal field 😡
this job shaming is crazy
Andre is the goat
fr
Stop trolling him
Andre
This server was full of severe doomerism until Andre showed up, gpt just wants nostalgia from the old days
this is ridiculous
fr
man its whatever u cant be famous without haters

u write 0 for 0$ an hour XD
Lol Andre gonna have 10x the net worth of rbc @unreal field in a few years
3 months into a job and he's already a ml engineer who's working with apis can you do that? wdym?
porkMl gonna have even more
That’s when he’s gonna be on all fours barking Andre’s name begging him to stop playing his techno music with 1 million TC
we can make our own models but that would cost a lot to train and build and time so why not use whats out there already?
-500k about
Ur doing webdev then
yeah exactly
no lol
just use pretrained models
if anything more backend but still ml engineering for some other projects
Pls don’t insult my man Andre
Sorry sir
He’s doing intense OOP optimization
gpt and nulname trolling nothing new
💀

congratz on no job i guess?
peace yalll, porkML ur chill asf
oh
get em andre
can you be nicer to people
That’s a minimum requirement for G L9 job
I interviewed for SWE
Swe
I fumbled the interview 
Is crazzy
haters gonna hate
what did they ask?
Anyone here interned at rbc before ?
beautifulsoup and chrome extensions stuff
yeah
I am at MIT rn
doing their hackathon
building smth cool
Ask @unreal field he got his dad to get him in via nepo
Job is job lol
@unreal field you interned at rbc?
@unreal field TD > trash > RBC
What team? Is it actually good? Just did an interview and the experience wasn’t the best
I do have fun
I think I have more fun this way
like
I dont sit down and grind leetcode
Man don’t say that
the guy with toji pfp I think
Ayush is literlay a badminton god
fr
u saw semi finals of nationals last yr
how I destroyed that kid
no
i like it
thanks
same
we play music
and sing along
and then just code
like cringe music too
or some radio music
taylor swift aint allat bad when u and the homies singing together
also have some pretty good friends because of coding
I should train you sometime
please do 
if ai takes over
just become a coach
frfr
what is "oop" ?
Overdose on programming
ohh I do alot of oop then
Shopify more known
Did you get offer from Ceridian?
No
Did you interview?
you got shopify?
Can I dm?
Ah lol when is it?

And what team
Ah good luck mine is Tuesday
Seems like fullstack
shopify?
How are you preparing
No Ceridian
Leet code in c#?
Yes
Fuck
Ceridian?
I think they prefer if you do in C#
Ceridian
I have no fucking clue
Cause they use it
But let me just fucking do Python FFS
when did you submit the oa?
No oa just reject
But I applied on the last day
So kinda on me
yeah and they probably have a strong preference for ppl who did grad school
hate zon?
Me when I get rejected
The sad thing
Yall don’t realize
Is that where u grad from
Won’t matter at all
In like 1 YOE
😂 😂
Yall r so tied to ur school name even tho it doesn’t mean jack after legit one year hahahah
U think someone will care if ur York or MIT? 🤣 all that matters is ur company and ur work
😂
Bunch of trolls
🪞
These companies have low actual hiring bar
But high resume bar
That’s the main issue that me and Andre face
We can easily clear hiring bar but can’t clear the resume bar
That part is just unfair and comes down to recruiter incompetence
Going to rave tonight, any tips to getting an interview and offer?
Yes, become a waifu 
Enjoy your rave
SD! Dm for full form
Actually, all that matters is the amount of leetcode you do. MIT with only 5 solved leetcode is NOTHING compared to Nipissing University with 2400 solved leetcode
getting to 1YOE can be helped massively by ur school though
Go for smoke breaks and offer people smokes, they will appreciate it and possibly be in tech
Bam connection created
I applied last day too. Still no oa
Am just waiting to get rejected ig 
If you didn’t get rejected yet that’s a good sign
Well I didn’t receive oa tho which should be auto right ?
I didn’t either. They might just be sending OA to people who applied early idk
I thought it will be auto too
Or maybe I just got resume reject
Why bother put a limit date if you’re not gonna consider those who apply late
Might as well say “first come first serve”
True.
Fr
Bro finally said something accurate for once
Does leetcode actually matter ? Would assume once you understand dsa ur good
Good job buddy @azure junco
All that matters is become a good engineer
Leetcode is a coping mechanisms used by junior programmers
facts but past 100 leetcode ur not really learning much with leetcode r u ?
You’d prob benefit more from just doing company tagged
Once u land intebriew
Met a lot of weirdo today
Makes sense
Just realize, did you leave a message to the hiring manager in ur application ?
Nah I didn’t 
Does that matter?
FUXK
whatever I don’t care, at this point I just want a job
Anything works really
keep the grind u got this bro
btw the message to the hr manager prob doesn’t do shit. Only reason i’m still not rejected is cuz i prob applied after u xd
I hope you get the OA homie, I was expecting it myself
@safe light should you be writing those message on application ?
But I guess my resume can still be better
you should try posting it in #1019675142248468601 to get some feedback
Yea mayhaps
if you cover all the patterns , yes
When I applied for shopify there was a possibility to leave a “Message to the hiring manager”. Is it useful ?
no, a referral from a senior employee is useful
if you haven't gotten oa it's a very bad sign unfortunately
that’s like not the question 💀
yeah figured lol
i answered your question: "no"
and gave you an example of what is actually useful
would you put the referral in the message to the hiring manager ? no idea how referral works
you can, but for shopify the referral is external
I actually know a staff engineer there but she’s a new hire and I didn’t work that much so wouldn’t ask her…
But I thought my resume was decent
Very reassuring 😂
but realistic ig
wait resume screen is after OA ?
I didn’t receive it i’m prob fked
yeah it’s been 3-4 days
last day
3hours before
yeah lol
welp 😭
it’s fine i’ll stay in my small company then
idk but they told me it’s top canadian tech company
so id assume pretty big
yes
lwets go
Didn't get OA tho
defn time line then
yea its defineterly when we applied
yup
when did you submit the oa?
they have internship for like 5 sub categories
not this this economy lol
but even zon is not recruiting that much in canada?
there is only ~300 oa submission
idk
did u get offer
no
when they getting back to u?
no clue
Bros gonna get cohere 😩
bro got nd miata 😔
Not@gonna lie
Food is usually most@people’s cause for distress
U know why?
GMO
Plus pesticide
Plus preservatives and adittves
Lot of high mercury in salmon
This is causing a brain meltdown
Yeah there's a secret group of people doing this to us
?!??
pork chop
GMO food and food with preservatives
Is truly poison in most diets
They are full of bad ingredients that is damaging our brain and health
Think about it you consume this daily
Not necessarily guaranteed depending on how their corporate structure is
me2thx
is there a github page for new grad canada?
anyone here back from SDE amazon internship?
avg sane canadian
Ong.
its ok me too
R u from loo
I have no coops yet so no
Hs then?
yeah
what uni u go to
loo peeps pretty jobless rn as wel
dawg
i'd be happy to get into mac atp
I got rejected from like 3 universities yesterday
💀
its complicated cuz I am applying from the US
Spotted
Gl.
Is treehacks cancelled
bro whats up with cohere hiring so many high school kids
like save some internships for the rest of us damn
what happened
im the only one afaik
ill send u a ss
are there others
🙏
Everybody is low key jobless but in comparison loo and UofT are on top
is this dumb?
I’m already have a job offer so I just want to min max what I will learn in uni. I don’t want a degree, I want to be enlighten by the smartest/best ppls in their fields so maybe my IQ can increase a little bit. I want to be like how Japanese do things, like to perfection. To do that (research or do good or be a SME for whatever I do in the future) I want to have the best strong base/fundamental possible. Any uni will give me a good one, but I’m looking for one that left me the least gaps or holes in my fundamentals even if it is small. I want to experience the same magic from prof like David in cs50.
Anyone have a free version or grokking the coding interview
Search it plus 'pdf'. There's one on github
Link?
Idk if I’m blind or not sure what to expect but the ones I find seem incomplete
Why no answer for my query?
U make me have to ask it again?
Seriously.
Want a genuine response …

UofT grad school
hey i had a question, how do people leverage a future internship experience if they are planning to apply to later internship? (ie. have summer, want to apply for fall)
theres not much u can really do right except say ur gonna be an intern at a company for the summer?
I can't find a question in there 🤔
