[lament summit]

has anyone taken pinterest phone yet

[autumn ridge]

recruiter or technical?

[lament summit]

technical

[autumn ridge]

I have mine on friday

[lament summit]

ohoh

do u know if its 1 or 2q?

[vast rock]

Bois, I got rekt during Bloomberg Phone cuz the interviewer just hates me. Q1 I got ordered stream, its a LC easy, I just did it 2 days ago too. Finished in 5 mins, the guy pretended he doesnt understand for straight 20 mins, then had random ass follows that dont make sense and keep accusing my solution being sub optimal. like what the actual f. I ran out of time for Q2, cuz Q2 only had like 5 mins left, just talked high level logic. i am fucked right?

[lament summit]

think ur issue is that u finished in 5 mins

its not about finishing fast

u need to like walk thru ur solution before u even start coding

run thru some examples

[slate bobcat]

jeez what is going with bloomberg

everyones always having interviews not show up or theyre assholes

[azure zephyr]

me too lmaoo

[vast rock]

BRO ITS 20 lines of code! I talked algo out loud before I coded, he agreed it works. I coded, guy says he doesnt understand. I did like 5 sets of dry run

trust me if im not a noob at coding interviews

[thorn walrus]

my bb interview also didnt understand my solution lol

[lament summit]

then thats just unlucky

[thorn walrus]

i did like 3 dry runs to convince him

[vast rock]

like if this is a complex problem i can understand if u dont understand. Design an ordered stream is so fking simple. How in the world do u manage to not understand if u worked at bbg for 10 years and cant understand this

[autumn ridge]

Mine was a trainwreck too. I didn't finish as fast but they were arguing that my solution was wrong when it wasn't too. I was so confused on what to do. Like do i try to prove to the interviewer that they are wrong or do i just accept that I'm going to lose points even though I'm right

[frozen tapir]

lowkey everyone is just tripping about getting ghosted by bloomberg they are just slow. it took them 7 days to schedule my onsite after confirming. everyone that said they got ghosted just wait a little

[compact obsidian]

i got bloomberg verbal offer like 1.5 weeks ago and they said it would take "a couple days" to send formal offer

it still hasnt arrived

[vast rock]

😭 i think the guy just hates me from the beginning

[west egret]

So it took a while to get a confirmation email even after you gave your dates for VO?

[frozen tapir]

bro bb interviews like p much everyone so they are definitely hella backed up

[lament summit]

some interviews just go that way

[frozen tapir]

yeah 7 days

[iron night]

would you need to lie? thought internships hire up to 6 months after grad

[lament summit]

just gg go next

[west egret]

I’m a bit past 7 days now

[compact obsidian]

most require u go back to school after the internship ends, no?

[hasty birch]

Don't think so

[west egret]

But guess I’ll keep waiting(not like I can do anything else lol)

[iron night]

how would that even work if you lie lol

[formal fable]

Can someone describe the final round for Bloomberg new grad? What's the format?

[compact obsidian]

uh u just sit at home pretending ur still in school

[iron night]

cause then wouldn't you need to wait to "graduate" before returning or applying for new grad lol

[compact obsidian]

lol

[iron night]

lmfaooo

troll

[compact obsidian]

free unpaid vacation ig

[iron night]

free unemployment ayo

[hasty birch]

Which final round? Onsite or EM?

[formal fable]

Onsite

[hasty birch]

It varies

[wintry sedge]

what's the duolingo untapped joke in the process channel?

[hasty birch]

Few ppl have in person (2x1hr) but most have 3 hr VO or 2x1

[delicate cloak]

does anyone know if "Software Development Engineer - Automation" === SDET at Apple?

[hasty birch]

Up to 2 LC questions per round

[sharp plume]

Does anyone know anything about the Apple evolve program?

[cobalt siren]

Has anyone been asked for references during interview process?

And if I want to use my manager from a previous internship do I need to ask for consent from him or her?

[lament summit]

yes

[lament summit]

only once

[cobalt siren]

Gotcha

I’m wondering if it’s bad not to use a Professor or manager? I play a d1 sport and I feel like just using 2 of my coaches

[lament summit]

proabbly

ur coach dont really know what ur like in a swe setting

[smoky lodge]

Okay

I’ve got my J.P. Morgan superday coming up soon

[smoky lodge]

I know for sure that I won’t get a better offer than my capital one offer

[loud olive]

Docusign layoff 9% today

[smoky lodge]

Should I still go to the interviews

[weak latch]

why not

you might be able to negotiate

and you might find that by talking to the people at jpmc you prefer their culture/team

[cobalt siren]

JPMC doesn’t negotiate for development program to my knowledge

[floral plank]

You can do it for practice

[low scroll]

rip to returns

[smoky lodge]

But I know that I won’t

[cobalt siren]

Never say never lol

[smoky lodge]

I thought so at first two but it would pretty much just be behavioral practice since from what I’ve gathered the technical interview at jpm is notably easy

[cobalt siren]

Why are you so sure about this lmao

[late kestrel]

have my case study in 30 minutes any tips 🥺

[floral plank]

True, I didn’t apply to JP cuz of hirevue and questions are kinda easy

[cobalt siren]

JP didn’t have hirevue this year

[floral plank]

Oh they changed it

[smoky lodge]

It’s literally gonna be a business context + modifying a nested for loop or some basic math

[floral plank]

Didn’t know

Still their questions seem easy

[late kestrel]

cool thanks

[smoky lodge]

The case interview is just a “are you competent” interview

[grizzled bronze]

You got Capital One return, I wouldn't even consider JP with that either

[weak latch]

databricks resume reject in <24 hours 💀

[smoky lodge]

You’re looking at like a 15-20k difference in pay and in a higher cost of living area

And jpm from what I understand has worse wlb and a much more dated tech stack/legacy code

[floral plank]

Yeah, but I still do practice interviews for some companies that would be a bit harder but wouldn’t take offer due to location or same pay

[grizzled bronze]

Yeah that's a good strategy

[cobalt siren]

This is a very blanket statement that is generally untrue for almost all established companies, it depends on the team

[flat raptor]

anyone know what the teams at databricks are?

[formal fable]

So, just LCs (presumably mediums) and no system design?

[hasty birch]

On onsite, pretty much

[formal fable]

Thanks!

[upbeat osprey]

What the hell?

[hasty birch]

Bruh

[indigo raft]

😭

[vernal prism]

lmaoo

shit

ggsss bois

going to mcdonalds rn

[upbeat osprey]

That was a final round interview

[ivory stratus]

Not me frantically signing into the portal to see if the same happened to me

[deft dock]

Interviewer basically implied I should give up on tech 😭

[vernal prism]

lmao for what company

[low scroll]

naww 😭

[upbeat osprey]

Microsoft

[grizzled bronze]

"Sincerely, Flick"
That's an interesting name

[vernal prism]

well yes

[low scroll]

fr tho I'm giving up hope on full time offers

might just have to start my own business

[grizzled bronze]

Flick is a good name to be sending rejection notices with

[low scroll]

might just delay grad at this rate

[vernal prism]

same

[timber rock]

these online interviews where there's no interviewer and you just have to record your answers are the worst

[west pagoda]

By how long lol

[low scroll]

a semester

and just intern over the summer

[west pagoda]

We don’t know 2024 new grad market isn’t gonna be worse when fulll recession impacts come thru lol

[low scroll]

very true

my only concern is, I have to take out a loan for next semester

I don't want to do that without having a job lined up that can pay for that

[slate bobcat]

Loan forgiveness

👀

for US that is

[low scroll]

I thought that was for people who already took out loans

[slate bobcat]

not exactly sure how it works, but my roomate took extra loans when he heard about it

Cause it would cover then

[low scroll]

hmm

[slate bobcat]

so I think you may be covered

Not exactly sure

[low scroll]

it only applies for federal loans right?

[autumn ridge]

I don’t think you qualify for forgiveness if you make over 100k though

[slate bobcat]

I think so

[low scroll]

i dont have job yet

aight I'll look into it

was lowkey just thinking of taking a gap sem, interning over the summer

if i get FT return, come back to college and finish my last sem

if no return, repeat

[slate bobcat]

Yeah it’s honestly not a bad plan

I was actually thinking of doing GTECH online masters

Apparently it’s really easy to get into and I feel like GTECH would look really good on my resume

[smoky lodge]

the worst feeling in the world is sacrificing GPA and doing poorly in classes to study for interviews

[slate bobcat]

but honestly fuck shcool

[smoky lodge]

only to just fail the interview

[ivory stratus]

Was this for new grad SWE?

[lament summit]

it says in the picture

[slate bobcat]

[smoky lodge]

like i had a higher level math exam that i basically threw to grind bloomberg tagged LCs and then still failed the interview

i had a 3.7 and was on the cusp of graduating with latin honors but not anymore

[floral plank]

I know that feeling. I am like oh I got a bad grade, but I will get a good internship/job

Kinda glad I don’t have to deal with recruiting for school type positions soon

[prime palm]

Cringe

[thick jetty]

yo this guy got Nuro
#2023_summer_intern_process message

nvm its internship

[exotic lintel]

college is a scam, years old experience is a lie, buy index fund. Bye !!!

[thick jetty]

but still

[floral plank]

Like no need to worry about offer deadlines and school stuff

[thick jetty]

insane

alvin is cracked

[upbeat osprey]

Yeah, new grad swe for the technical support team

[smoky lodge]

gpa doesn't matter that much but lowkey i feel like grinding insanely hard in classes dramatically reduces the amount of prep you have to do for interviews

[exotic lintel]

really ?

[lament summit]

just do half and half

[exotic lintel]

give them bad reviews then

[lament summit]

half grind interviews half grind class

gotta manage ur time wisely

spending 24/7 on leetcoding probably isnt the best use of ur time anyways

[smoky lodge]

like i don't have to review DSA stuff and can just go straight to grinding leetcode

whereas if i didn't give a shit about my classes

[exotic lintel]

i feel like u only need to know OOP and Leetcode. Then u are good with interviews

[smoky lodge]

id have to do some DSA review on top of it

[exotic lintel]

jeffbezos.com

[smoky lodge]

like even before leetcoding i already know algorithms and runtimes off the top of my head thanks to classes which reduces the overal prep alot

true

[formal glen]

was this for frontend position?

[smoky lodge]

my 3.7 was definitely super unnecessary

[pure mauve]

holy fk is this recession going to be really bad

[smoky lodge]

was 3.9 in freshman year

definitely not worth it

[weak latch]

application still transferred.....

though I assume that means its dead in the water

sad

[vernal prism]

Banaana anything from rippling yet?

[smoky lodge]

idk i've had trading firms that had a 3.5 or 3.7 cutoff

yeah

[vernal prism]

yeah but someone said HC for this year is frozen

[smoky lodge]

you dont even have to put your gpa on your resume lmao

[vernal prism]

this

sheesh

kk

brb cryin

[weak latch]

ugh

MANNNNNNNN FOR FUCKS SAKE WHY IS GETTING A NG JOB SO FUCKING HARD THIS YEAR

ffs

ughhhhhh

honestly at this point google is my last hope too lol

and i dont even know if im gonna get onsite

[compact vortex]

did anyone else here get ghosted for pinterest

[weak latch]

yes

recruiter assist

US

[smoky lodge]

see my problem is that I scheduled this semester of classes to be much easier than next semester
cuz i thought id be able to grind for jobs this semester than grind out the last of my classes

[indigo raft]

wait serious question, in the past years do the interns just not accept as many full time return offers? Is it a mix of less new grad headcount + more interns accepting?

[floral plank]

When round?

[compact vortex]

after applying

lol

[smoky lodge]

but if hiring opens up in the first half of 2023 than i basically fucked myself

[weak latch]

more people are accepting because its safer to accept whatever offer you can get

[vernal prism]

yeah u right L expected

[weak latch]

and on top of that, headcount is generally lower across the board, tech is correcting

[azure zephyr]

my microsoft final just got cancelled massive L bois

[indigo raft]

NOOOOO

[compact vortex]

rippling ghosted me as well 😦

[vernal prism]

since 2000

2008 was ok for tech

[compact vortex]

wait what why?

[vernal prism]

after OA?

[compact vortex]

did they give u reason

[compact vortex]

i didnt even get OA lol

[vernal prism]

damn thats tough too

[azure zephyr]

theyre saying that they will be filling HC with past interns??? like wtf

[compact vortex]

they just ghosted me

[azure zephyr]

you gave so much hope for what

[vernal prism]

yeah wtf man

[compact vortex]

literally every company is ghosting me or rejecting me

with faang on my resume

idk

at this point

[weak latch]

you have return offer right?

[vernal prism]

LMAO i have spotify on resume still major Ls

[compact vortex]

good thing i have a return offer

[weak latch]

just accept the return yeah you're fine

[compact vortex]

yeah

[vernal prism]

where is ur return

[compact vortex]

thats the plan

Audible -Amazon subsidiary

[vernal prism]

lit

[weak latch]

you have literally 0 to worry about

[vernal prism]

take it dwag

exactly

this mf complaining smh

[peak ferry]

tech hiring not pog

[weak latch]

for you another offer is just extra credit

for those of us without returns its desperation

[compact vortex]

naw naw its not like that i just wanna see i can get something better honestly

sorry for sounding like that

[vernal prism]

nah lmao im joking

u good

[compact vortex]

i am def greatful

[weak latch]

uh oh my light is flickering 😭

[compact vortex]

for my offer

[weak latch]

rip my power

[smoky lodge]

get lost bozo

[azure zephyr]

damn i wish there weren't so many technical issues my first interview with expedia, my second interview went really well (prob the best technical i've ever given), but i feel like my first interview is holding me back here

[vernal prism]

yeah

meta interns gotta go

[smoky lodge]

okay is it worth applying to expedia with a capital one offer

[compact vortex]

most of the meta interns are getting interviews lol

cuz most companies know

the situation there

[vernal prism]

yeah wtf right

exactly

[azure zephyr]

expedia closed apps

also capital one offer?? congrats!!

[floral plank]

They only reason why I am not taking is cuz I did have to relocate and spend on housing

[compact vortex]

naw meta interns def have an advantage this season

it rlly is

[smoky lodge]

they just posted a bunch of stuff on linkedin

[compact vortex]

my friend had a good time there last summer

[azure zephyr]

oh nvm yeah apply

[vernal prism]

yeah fr

[azure zephyr]

the OA is rly hard tho heads up

[loud olive]

idk how brex is ranked No.4 top startups in the US, especially since they shit the bed earlier this year and cut ties with small businesses, which is essentially the focus of their mission lmao

[night magnet]

What did they do

Prob ranked that hi bc of their valuation

[smoky lodge]

Tyrannosaurus Brex

[loud olive]

https://www.cnbc.com/2022/06/17/brex-drops-small-business-customers-as-silicon-valley-adjusts-to-new-reality.html

[wet coral]

what is this?

[smoky lodge]

blind memes capital one so hard and i dont know why

[weak latch]

Why did the bot violate me like this

[lament summit]

Someone process offer then deleted it

Probably

[lilac siren]

yes

[analog tree]

That's smart

[calm shale]

whats the context lmao

who made this and why

[stoic belfry]

is there a discord for Amazon new grads?

[night maple]

Wdym by that

[azure zephyr]

https://discord.gg/amazonnefews

[stoic belfry]

ty

[buoyant fable]

How long to hear back from c1?

After final

[wary pollen]

Is palantir oa automatic?

[floral plank]

No

[compact vortex]

like companies know that most of them didnt get offers. i heard some of their managers gave them advice and told them to leetcode or something

and connected them to their contacts

thats what i heard idk if its real or not

[wary pollen]

Is it hard? I just got

Palantir

[split plaza]

kind of

it's pretty practical imo

[compact vortex]

does palantir give OAs this season

[split plaza]

to some people

[compact vortex]

i remember last year I applied

and they skipped the OA

[split plaza]

I got one, many others did not

[compact vortex]

this year I just got resume rejected

shits weird man

that was me last season

for intern

[wind drum]

yeah it seems like most people went to karat instead of oa

[wary pollen]

Wtf

I got hackkerank

[split plaza]

we just suck I guess LOL

[thorn walrus]

has anyone been able to negotiate bloomberg offeR?

my sign on bonus is so low wtf

[smoky lodge]

what does transferred mean on a microsoft application

[west egret]

It means I’m going to Puerto Rico

[smoky lodge]

my recruiter said puerto rico is done

destroyed by hurricanes

wiped off the map

[normal palm]

whats ur sign on

[west egret]

my recruiter said hurricane is done though

[normal palm]

hurricane?

[thorn walrus]

17k

[west egret]

I’m memeing the whole “my recruiter said ….”

[normal palm]

ur TC's still like 190 right?

[smoky lodge]

my recruiter said that Jour de Bon is done

[normal palm]

oh kek

[normal palm]

im kinda done, i accepted my offer, we'll see tho

[thorn walrus]

no 182 y1, 172 recurring

[west egret]

Where at?

[smoky lodge]

let me guess

[normal palm]

guess

[smoky lodge]

amazon

[normal palm]

LOL

[west egret]

Amazon or c1

Or BB

[normal palm]

thats lower than what ive heard previous guys get

[smoky lodge]

the vast majority of people with offers they like seem to be amazon or c1

[thorn walrus]

ik which is why im surprised

[normal palm]

u cant nego?

[west egret]

Zon has a waitlist and c1 closed off their job post lol

[normal palm]

vast majority of people in this server yes

mans are broken in this server

[weak latch]

It’s just moving it to recruiters assigned to ur area/school

[west egret]

Companies meeting headcount in Sept what a time to be recruiting

[smoky lodge]

people in this sever are probably the top like 5-10% of all cs majors

[smoky lodge]

last year i just got straight up resume rejected w/o transfer so is this a good sign or bad sign

[young peak]

ngl I had a tough convo today with a friend... He wanted a referral but his resume was so shit

[weak latch]

I wonder if recruiters love or hate this type of season

[wicked pendant]

yeah its negotiable

[young peak]

Had to tell my mans no sadly

[weak latch]

It means nothing

[normal palm]

breh lol, to who

[west egret]

I’m a monkey that googles things. I don’t know anything.

[slate bobcat]

Probably hate

[weak latch]

Can google take referrals after applying? I just found out a close family friend of my dad has a son that works at google but I’ve already applied and done OA

[young peak]

Some guy from my country tbh

[slate bobcat]

Don’t they get commission on offers?

[young peak]

No

[vague kraken]

At least you had the tough convo

[weak latch]

Damn rip

[normal palm]

from ur country lol, that boils things down

[young peak]

it honestly does lmfao

[smoky lodge]

the fact that your on a career prep server with a large number of FAANG-sexuals probably means you're not an average CS major and at the very least are more motivated than the vast majority

[normal palm]

are you from monaco

[young peak]

true I think it'll help him down the line

[young peak]

Close enough lmfao

[normal palm]

breh lol

[west egret]

Is that what your recruiter said?

[smoky lodge]

yes

like i read that the average CS major doesn't do an internship before graduating

[split plaza]

how wtf

[smoky lodge]

which should automatically tell you a lot about how the people on this server compare to average cs major

[west egret]

They prob spend more time touching grass

[smoky lodge]

and getting laid

going to parties

having fun lives

[young peak]

gotta remember bud, you just being here makes you a much bigger try hard than most CS majors

[wind drum]

you can do all of these things and grind cs stuff yk

[west egret]

Tbf you can do a lot of that while you’re doing an internship

[smoky lodge]

that's what im saying

[young peak]

I got laid, went to parties and had a fun ass college life.. Got 8 offers during before graduation

[smoky lodge]

i got laid exactly once in college

[wind drum]

exactly it's just good time management

[young peak]

Quality over quantity my dude

[calm shale]

gimme referral instead

[wind drum]

and i pretty much gave up on all video games

[young peak]

One top shelf multiple times (hopefully forever) is universes better than a bunch of shitty one night stands

[smoky lodge]

it was also not a good experience

[slate bobcat]

[calm shale]

my first time was with @pulsar mural

it was great

[slate bobcat]

same

[calm shale]

the way he touched me

[slate bobcat]

but he said I was the only one

[azure zephyr]

you have ur c1 offer now go get laid homie 😭

[crude saffron]

I got resume rejected by Amazon last year

And c1

[calm shale]

me too

[young peak]

you do know that yahkuna is a girl right

[slate bobcat]

[calm shale]

false

[smoky lodge]

lies, female cs majors aren't real

[young peak]

It has been confirmed to be true

[buoyant pulsar]

Hello everyone, why would you think interviewers ask graduates if they want to pursue a master's degree? They basically asked me if I can give them a rough master's graduation date. (I'm currently 4th year in my BSc)

[calm shale]

id just say no

[young peak]

They wanna see if you have other plans so they can gauge what offer can pull you in

[marble bronze]

100%. CS majors on average may be higher but I doubt it's very common still to have an internship before graduating.

[young peak]

I said I was considering a masters during nego, even tho I had no interest

[slate bobcat]

Getting internships is tough

[floral plank]

It doesn’t feel like that but it seems to be true

[slate bobcat]

before I joined this server I thought it was normal to start applying in spring semester

[radiant juniper]

I j got the email to schedule an interview via Karat with Palantir

[floral plank]

Depends on the internship

[radiant juniper]

any advice?

[slate bobcat]

and now I’m applying to jobs a year before they open

[azure zephyr]

i think getting the first internship is tough

[calm shale]

getting @pulsar mural wasn't hard tho

[floral plank]

I think some people don’t realize it is not that hard to get an internship

[buoyant pulsar]

I mean since they emailed me for that then it should be good news.. like they're actually considering me

[slate bobcat]

There’s a lot of local/smaller companies that are usually easy to get into

[young peak]

Yes, that's generally a good sign

[slate bobcat]

But most people don’t really know to apply to them

[floral plank]

A little but getting first BigN is definitely the hardest

[buoyant pulsar]

they also wanted to confirm my BSc graduation date, if that helps

[smoky lodge]

getting any internship paying 40$ and hour or more is incredibly hard

[slate bobcat]

Unfortunately I will be a FAANG virgin before I graduate

[smoky lodge]

but if you didn't care and just wanted an internship with no respect to compensation it would be mad easy

[marble bronze]

If you spend all of your time on discords where people go specifically to omegajuice their careers, then it def does feel like that.

[marble bronze]

Same, couldn't get any. And Amazon is constipated for HC right now

[floral plank]

Same

[young peak]

There's a stat, FAANG grads have like a 5x chance of getting laid after graduation

[calm shale]

ayo who started pogging this

[azure zephyr]

in my experience i had a lot of trouble getting my first internship bc i just wasn't super competitive but i struck up a random conversation with a guy at a career fair, applied to a different role at the company that wasn't on his team. got a call months later saying that the guy specifically asked if he could have me as a intern on his team

[smoky lodge]

amazon isn't a real faang and sucks

[azure zephyr]

after i got my first internship, getting the second one was a lot easier since i had that experience on my resume

[marble bronze]

I wish our University had a better support system. The last stem fair we had Qualtrics and Guitar Center on campus

Hiring for SWE*

[young peak]

Working out consistently, dressing well and touching grass gets you there easily my dudes

[azure zephyr]

guitar center no way hahaha

[young peak]

SWEs really do be overcomplicating the game

[marble bronze]

Literally booth next to them was asking business majors to sell wine or some shit like bro

[azure zephyr]

bro imma be real idk if hitting the gym rly has much correlation on getting girls

[slate bobcat]

honestly I feel like a lot of it is about starting early

[calm shale]

there for sure is

[azure zephyr]

as a girl, and all my friends i've talked to its not about how in shape they are etc

[slate bobcat]

not necessarily grinding early, but just putting in a little bit of effort early towards your career

[young peak]

the gym isn't really about being shredded, it's just a confidence boost thing

[azure zephyr]

if there's a correlation i'll say its moreso guys who to gym = more confidence. confidence is whats truly attractive

[smoky lodge]

Getting girls is like applying to new grad jobs, you send out 100 applications, hear back from 3 and then try not to fail the interviews

[azure zephyr]

^^

[calm shale]

well maybe not better body = more girls, but working out makes u more confident, which can result in better conversation skills, which can result in more girls

we said the same thing lmao

[frank wedge]

based

[marble bronze]

Imo it's all in the momentum. I had the gimped CSSI and got STEP phone interview, but then year after because I didn't get an internship (tbh just lazy) next year I got nothing

[azure zephyr]

bro a lot of guys are just fucking weird tbh

[craggy radish]

Lol

[azure zephyr]

like just act like a normal human being 😭

[young peak]

I'm married, but I really advocate just finding 1 super great person forever

It's a LOT more fullfilling

[smoky lodge]

Me.

[calm shale]

dont remove the leg curl comment lmaoo

[marble bronze]

This is just what your brain becomes after 200+ solved LeetCode

[crude saffron]

ez 4 hachiyuki

[slate bobcat]

My second time was with assisted dips

I went down on her pretty well

[young peak]

Eh I found that getting over 200k is like getting your first internship

[radiant juniper]

anyone done the Palantir Karat? I just got the email for it just now

[young peak]

Once get one offer, it becomes a lot easier

[smoky lodge]

This is about getting girls

[azure zephyr]

fair lmaoo

[sharp stream]

Especially when they cancel them two weeks before starting. It’s so awesome 🤩

[marble bronze]

Is that why Andrew Tate has a harem, you just keep getting offers after the first

[compact sundial]

my recruiter told me girlfriend apps are closed for the season

[smoky lodge]

i literally treat dating the exact same way i treat new grad applications tbh

[grizzled bronze]

Getting a girl with 200k TC is hard

[young peak]

Wife do be making more than me

[azure zephyr]

yogi can't believe youre a whole ass married man

[young peak]

it's recent but thanks

[marble bronze]

Stay at home dad is based

[smoky lodge]

i feel like you have to also be making 200k TC or higher tbh

[small mountain]

yogi if you dont mind me asking how old are you

[young peak]

23

[azure zephyr]

does it feel any different from when yall were just dating

[small mountain]

i couldnt imagine getting married while at college

[azure zephyr]

he's graduated

[young peak]

Not at all lmao

[small mountain]

looking for grad job

oh

[azure zephyr]

at the big G i think?

[young peak]

Yeah G in Seattle

[small mountain]

oh shit

[crude saffron]

I just turned 22 and am unemployed

[small mountain]

[smoky lodge]

honestly i wouldn't marry someone with sub 200k TC

[azure zephyr]

im turning 22 in two weeks and i can't even imagine getting married the year after that

[small mountain]

my recruiter says your chances of getting with a girl of any TC is low

[echo finch]

Hey whats going on here btw

[young peak]

Her income fluctuates because of her job but I make like 265k, she makes around 300k?

[azure zephyr]

my bf was like how do u feel about a proposal after graduation and i was like absolutely not lmao

[marble bronze]

I've heard the term "Spoogler" for spouse of googler is this true

[young peak]

How come?

[young peak]

Ew no wtf

[small mountain]

spoogler

[young peak]

Doogler is a thing tho

for dogs of Googlers

[smoky lodge]

putting "you have to make 250k" on tinder makes you way more attractive i promise

[fresh lagoon]

they better get the hats tho

[crude saffron]

Does FAANG have good merch?

[smoky lodge]

that's the first question you ask on a date too

[crude saffron]

I care about merch quality a lot

[azure zephyr]

i told him my preferred timeline would be engagement when we're like a year or two into living together after grad just bc there's so much change that happens after graduation, i would want to grow together through that as both individuals & a couple before bringing marriage into the equation. i also want a long engagement, like 2 years

[smoky lodge]

"do you make more than 250k?"
"no"
"all right have a good life"
and then you leave

[small mountain]

didnt u just say ur unemployed

[young peak]

they do

[crude saffron]

I start work in a month

[marble bronze]

Most stable Blind user

[small mountain]

lmao

[echo finch]

Do they have a cat version

catgler

caogler

[small mountain]

googcat

[echo finch]

so true

[azure zephyr]

girlboss

[young peak]

No cats allowed on campus

[small mountain]

where does she work

[young peak]

she's independant

[echo finch]

Thats so fucked up

brb never applying to google

[smoky lodge]

ok but seriously though if you're making like 3-4x as much as your spouse doesn't that hurt a relationship

[young peak]

naw I think you can bring it, but its not advised

[azure zephyr]

it shouldn't

[young peak]

because the cats get spooked with the sheer amt of dogs

[small mountain]

some people dont place that much emphasis on cash

[smoky lodge]

bullshit

[young peak]

Naw it really doesn't

[small mountain]

arent you a highschooler? i wouldnt expect you to get it

[chilly burrow]

Wat 2 much time on Blind does to a mf 😔

[fresh lagoon]

Sounds like it would only matter if they're a bad person which hopefully they're not

[crude saffron]

Most of my friends don’t tell their s/o how much they make

[azure zephyr]

if it's a problem it probably comes from a place of insecurity

[young peak]

Money is amazing af so why would I be mad if they're bringing in more of it

[smoky lodge]

like personally, i would never be sure if they just liked me for my money or not

[smoky lodge]

exactly

[azure zephyr]

but also i think they should prob know this, esp if living together

[echo finch]

is he actually LMFAOO💀 that explains a lot

[small mountain]

deadass bro

[azure zephyr]

imo im prob gonna make a lot more than my bf starting out, that just means i can spoil him more hahaha

[smoky lodge]

also, if you're an engineer at a FAANG, do you really think your spouse would be clueless on how much you bring in

[echo finch]

bro worry about this when u acc have money 😭

[crude saffron]

I don’t think it matters how much they make, also they usually cover all the finances themselves regardless

[small mountain]

hes like a junior too

[smoky lodge]

i know im just saying hypthetically

[chilly burrow]

Yooo I'm 6'3

[ivory stratus]

i told my gf that if im making more than her, then we pay whatever percentage of our income towards rent vs both of us paying half

[small mountain]

fuck knows wtf he does in 2023 grads... in case you didn't know, 2023 grads means college grads, not high school @smoky lodge

[uneven grove]

holy fuck pinterest recruiter call earliest appointment is 10/17

why is everyone applying

stop applying

[ivory stratus]

fuck i need to do my OA

[marble bronze]

SH?

[chilly burrow]

We want money 💰 🤑

[azure zephyr]

i tried to tell my bf this but he rly wants to go 50/50

[uneven grove]

what's sh

[ivory stratus]

[indigo raft]

When’d you get email?

[smoky lodge]

i'm not in high school wut

[uneven grove]

GZ

[marble bronze]

Ah

[small mountain]

CAP

[crude saffron]

Yea this is a p logical arrangement

[ivory stratus]

but i mean hey if he wants to pay half by all means lol

[marble bronze]

I know mine was out of office until around then for pin

[uneven grove]

sent 840 codesignal last friday

[chilly burrow]

Ur literally drinkin monster energy in ur pfp

Big hs vibes

[azure zephyr]

thats what i thought too!! but ig the plan would be to find a place that fits both of our budgets

[smoky lodge]

i'm 5'11, but since it's close to 6' I can just say im 6'
but since 6' is indistinguishable to most people from 6'1, I can just say I'm 6'1
which means i can say I'm 6'2
which means i can say I'm 6'3

[smoky lodge]

yes.

[marble bronze]

Homie tryna use induction on his height 💀

[ivory stratus]

i guess that's fair. i told my gf that if i make good money i really want to live in a nice place

[small mountain]

imagine having an S/O hahahahahahahahhahahaahaa

[chilly burrow]

Ur height is a ratio?

[indigo raft]

what age did you guys move in with ur SO’s

[echo finch]

[echo finch]

[small mountain]

[ivory stratus]

is it easier to get a job after your first one?

[timber rock]

im here bby :(

[echo finch]

good thats wat u get for being british

[chilly burrow]

Yes?

[smoky lodge]

if i was below 5'10" I'd probably just give up at life and live on welfare since there's no point

[ivory stratus]

im assuming it's just dumb harder to get a job with 0 experience

[echo finch]

@smoky lodge so what year of uni r u in

[small mountain]

are you british too!!??

[timber rock]

yeah, scottish

[small mountain]

dm

[smoky lodge]

[chilly burrow]

Aren't u 5'11 dats basically da same ting

[smoky lodge]

[peak ferry]

if he insists and is part of picking I think it’s fine— only a problem if u want a nicer place.

[ivory stratus]

ya boi just wants good money. wanting to hop to FAANG asap to make them big boi moneys

[peak ferry]

personally don’t want a handout lol

[echo finch]

handouts r poggers

i love free stuff

[smoky lodge]

not sure why me having monster energy in pfp means im a high schooler
when half the full timers have anime PFPs

[marble bronze]

Average Costco shopper

[chilly burrow]

Yo I'm so glad Costco sampls r bak

[marble bronze]

Don't worry I usually take more than 1 too

[slate bobcat]

Anime is for adults

Monsters pretty good too

[smoky lodge]

anime is for high schoolers

[chilly burrow]

I can sav so much muni by jus eating sampls

[slate bobcat]

Actually tried it for the first time over the summer

[smoky lodge]

like explicitly too

[azure zephyr]

yea plus we probably moving to seattle so if we both contributing 1.5k for rent thats more than enough to find a great place

[slate bobcat]

One of the intern’s reccomended it to me

[crude saffron]

Impossible

[chilly burrow]

Costso?

[slate bobcat]

Nah got it from the cafeteria

we had free food

[weak latch]

If I was below 6’0 I’d give up on life

[slate bobcat]

basically a FAANG tier company cause of free food

[weak latch]

If you’re a guy below 6’0 that’s an L

[smoky lodge]

i agree

[echo finch]

an P

btw

[weak latch]

Hell if you’re below 6’2 that’s an L too

[slate bobcat]

Except they stopped doing free food recently

[weak latch]

Kek

[chilly burrow]

Wat company?

[slate bobcat]

It’s only Thursday’s now

[slate bobcat]

Vangaurd

[echo finch]

if ur taller than 5’3 thats an L

[smoky lodge]

being below 6' is an L being below 5'10 is like a consider doing cocaine

[chilly burrow]

Damn dat suks

[slate bobcat]

It was an incentive to bring people back in office

[marble bronze]

If they don't got a degree from a Beijing school I don't want them

(For legal reasons this is a joke)

[smoky lodge]

i think i have to add troll back into my username one sec

[echo finch]

he still cant spell it right its been 8 months

[chilly burrow]

So bein below 5'10 is good 🤔

[slate bobcat]

spelling is hard

:jody_cry:

[smoky lodge]

i put every penny i save into costco stock

[slate bobcat]

My variables can be spelled wrong and still work

[marble bronze]

If they paid more then they could spell it right

[slate bobcat]

if I take JPM then I don’t need to worry about spelling

[compact sundial]

https://tenor.com/view/chuck-mcgill-gif-26609090

[slate bobcat]

Vangaurd is actually so hard to spell

[smoky lodge]

bro

vanguard

ez

[slate bobcat]

Vanguard

[marble bronze]

That comp is genuinely depressing though - 80k? Unless it's lcol, I don't recall where their main office is

[slate bobcat]

https://tenor.com/view/vanguard-cod-vanguard-vanguard-hype-cod2021-vanguard-doom-gif-22693969

[smoky lodge]

ew cod

[slate bobcat]

It’s like 88k total

not great

[marble bronze]

AT&T is giving me 87 base in Dallas, smaller sign on though. Is most of that locked up in sign on?

[slate bobcat]

Nah it’s 80 base 8 sign on

[marble bronze]

That really sucks imo

[slate bobcat]

AT&T offer is basically my TC

[slate bobcat]

Yeah they like to low ball

And I don’t think I got a raise for return intern

Which is kinda dumb

It’s same as non return intern

[marble bronze]

Tell them you'll short VOO if they don't increase TC

[smoky lodge]

shorting VOO will do literally nothing bruh

[nimble tinsel]

hey guys, anyone know when to nego salary

[marble bronze]

I'll short VTSAX too and tank my own net worth

[marble bronze]

When you get offer

[nimble tinsel]

like when one receives the verbal offer or written offer

[marble bronze]

I think written

[smoky lodge]

i haven't negotiated but i think written

[nimble tinsel]

gotcha, probably send an email to nego?

after receiving written offer

[loud olive]

U can start negotiating when u get the verbal offer

That’s what I’m doing rn

[loud sphinx]

Are there any tech companies that are “better” than google?

[stoic belfry]

DN

[loud sphinx]

What’s dn

[stoic belfry]

Deez Nuts

[loud sphinx]

Nice one

[dusty basin]

Proud of 2023 grads

[vestal pelican]

only been ghosted by them

[loud sphinx]

Yo ur on this discord too

[vestal pelican]

I'm the one who told you about this discord lol

[loud sphinx]

Nah I was here a long time ago like 2 yrs

[vestal pelican]

Oh huh lol

[loud sphinx]

Ye I was on the grind

[vestal pelican]

Clearly paid off with that back2back internships

[loud sphinx]

Lmfao ty

[north turtle]

same thing happened to me in April lmaoo

[vestal pelican]

It's gonna feel so wierd to be back to school work

I'm still in summer mode lol

[loud sphinx]

Fr Fr it’s gonna be even weirder for me

[vestal pelican]

i shouldve just done 410 last semester and graudate in winter

im mad chillin in terms of workload tho cuz i dont have many classes left

[loud sphinx]

Ya but do u plan to start google then after fall? Or take a break

[vestal pelican]

if i get google i wanna start in early august

[vestal pelican]

taking like 2.5months off. that is enough

[next geode]

has anyone taken the expedia hackerrank?

[smoky lodge]

bro someone pin that interaction

that was amazing

[lunar badger]

i got bloomberg verbal offer like 1 5

[azure zephyr]

is wells fargo interview just behavioral?

[loud sphinx]

Ye that’s my plan too with either g or msft

[vestal pelican]

lowkey since both g and msft are the same, location is the only thing i would really consider

for msft u are in seattle and g would be in nyc right?

[loud sphinx]

MSFT is Bellevue and yes google would be nyc

[smoky lodge]

just for the fun of it, does anyone know any good companies in switzerland i could apply to

[loud sphinx]

Google

[smoky lodge]

that isn't google

[grizzled bronze]

Amazon

[smoky lodge]

that like isn't a popular company in the US

[late kestrel]

swiss cheese

[vestal pelican]

i literally dont know any euoporean tech companies besides BeReal lol

and thats French

[young peak]

Verbal offer

[young peak]

wtf is this take

MSFT == G?

[late kestrel]

only fans :))

[vestal pelican]

nah i say G > MSFT but not enough to simply just choose that

[thorn walrus]

you can still negotiate the written offer right?

[vestal pelican]

location should be the biggest variable in choosing when u have msft and g

[thorn walrus]

are you just saying negotiating at verbal offer is preferred

[young peak]

Yeah but it's gonna be harder for your rec to do so. They need manager approval in order to go back and change the written offer

Whereas a verbal offer, they're still in the process of filing your case to create the written offer so there's a lot of flexibility in the middle

[thorn walrus]

ah ok...

i goofed then

[young peak]

Usually -- and I say usually because I've tried many times -- they won't even bother to listen to your appeal on getting more after you get the offer letter

[young peak]

TC, team and location

TC is generally higher in NYC/Bay area, but so is COL

Negotiation is more open at G if you have a good offer, then even places like Seattle/Chicago are good places

[glacial pine]

just use Google to neogitaite MST and then use MST to negotiate Google

[young peak]

MSFT anywhere not in cali is gonna give you an unideal TC compared to G, and negos aren't as flexible

[visual zephyr]

CERN

[young peak]

Swiss Bank

[young peak]

G doesn't do back and forths

You send it once, it's a done deal iirc

[loud sphinx]

🧢 MSFT gave me a decent package

[visual zephyr]

Or niantic, the ppl who made pokemon Go xd

[young peak]

I speak from experience my dude idk

[thick shell]

Anyone else noticing the trend where more and more companies are asking multiple choice in their hackerranks?

[loud sphinx]

👍

[young peak]

TC and location?

Just tell us how much you got, we're pretty open here

I got into G with 265k at Seattle

[vestal pelican]

What did you nego g with

[young peak]

Bloomberg and Citadel

[magic acorn]

Do these include Em, or they are scheduled later ?

[mossy ice]

Did anyone interview at DISCO?

[vestal pelican]

If I have a quant trader offer, will g nego?

[young peak]

Not too sure since mine were SWE offers, but I'd assume so

@loud sphinx what was your msft package my guy

pls tell us

[hasty birch]

Later

[loud sphinx]

Nowhere near ur gs

[glacial pine]

yeah u use g to negotiate mst and then use mst to negotiate g

[young peak]

The best MSFT offer this cycle so far and in general on levels

This is for Redmond, WA which is nuts

now

exact same app cycle, slightly different area but still in WA

and these are just manually reported cases, there's tons more on company specific disc servers

I was a bit wrong, MSFT does give pretty nuts top band offers

but it looks like it still falls a tiny bit short from G (especially in averages)

[ivory stratus]

Daaaaaang

Let’s see if they cancel anymore interviews though 🙃

[ivory stratus]

I’m sure this is return offer too

[young peak]

my BB offer isn't standard at all

BB is super fast either way

G on the other hand takes months

ngl that's still enough time

I did my onsite for G on october, got the offer on December 21st

[wicked pendant]

when i negoed bloomberg my recruiter moved my signing deadline to be 24 hrs this cycle btw

[young peak]

but some folks wait MUCH longer

[wicked pendant]

200k

[young peak]

Ah for BB I did onsite late September and had the offer like 10days later

The highest standard offer this cycle is 220k

last year it was 215k

[wicked pendant]

maybe? i didnt push that hard and didnt have amazing competing offers. my other offer was like 185k in seattle

[young peak]

not that I know of

Yeah they do but it's rare

and I don't recommend people go off outlier TCs like mine

[wicked pendant]

i think return gets a 20k sign bonus but you can nego sign bonus

standard offer is no sign bonus

[young peak]

Both but nego definitely stronger

[wicked pendant]

idk if my recruiter was lying but was told 185 is the highest initial offer i can get (interview performance, pre nego, etc)

[young peak]

Yeah plus my HRT final and other offers

I renegoed like twice

so it jumped each time

I think standard offer I had was 185k

then I negoed once to 200k, then again to 215k then again to 300k

yeah

which is like I said why I don't rec people using outliers for their own negos

its good to know it exists but thats about it

[radiant juniper]

respect

[young peak]

ugh believe me I still get tech managers in my LN profile views every month

[wicked pendant]

ya i think u gotta be a real hardass to nego multiple times bc my recruiter was pressuring the hell out of me on nego number one

wanted a verbal accept before they would go nego for me

[young peak]

I never sent offers or told my actual values

Only company I did that for was G

Yeah

[wicked pendant]

yeah i told them if they match sign on ill accept since that was the plan anyways

[young peak]

My recruiter was the same, it's a lot of pressure so if you feel uncomfortable with it then I highly recommend doing emails

[wicked pendant]

LMAO i saw my recruiter in person at a career fair and negoed face to face

def not a great idea but i got smth so im cool

[young peak]

Yeah just be upfront about expectations before you jump in

don't think of numbers DURING the nego

Here's my slanky

I ended up with 8* offers

pretty proud of em and really willing to help so lmk if you guys have questions

[night magnet]

Damn

That’s awesome

8 is amazing from 121 apps

[young peak]

They can't pressure you if you tell them you want some breathing space to consider their offer

[young peak]

Thanks!

Companies I got into btw for the uninitiated: Google, Meta, Bloomberg, Citadel, TikTok, DraftKings, Uber and a Series A startup

[vestal pelican]

Last season was way crazier than this year

[night magnet]

Holy

[ivory stratus]

Damn bro, how did you study

[young peak]

I feel you guys tbh which is why I wanna help

[night magnet]

🐐

[young peak]

My LC count isn't high but top tagged + Blind 75 is good

[wicked pendant]

this season sux, i just took smth from my current offers even tho i have google and apple in progress bc i really just want a job and not to be screwed over

[young peak]

I had around 60 LCs done when I started my OAs, then I ended up having like 80 OAs so I stopped prepping

[young peak]

Yeah just renege if it works out, it's chill

[chilly burrow]

How do I nego if my only other offer is lower?

[vestal pelican]

@young peak which offer did you end up choosing

[chilly burrow]

It's close tho

[ivory stratus]

Mostly mediums?

[young peak]

You tell them you have a competitive offer from a great company that you're interested in, but that this company you're now negotiating with is more in line with your career objectives

That's it

no showing offers or telling them specific company names unless its a big company

[wicked pendant]

u_u dont wanna renege bc my other offers are from companies i like too.. just gonna chill since my salary is within where i was targeting anyways

[young peak]

Yeah focused more on mediums

[chilly burrow]

They're both startups

Tanks 4 da advice

[young peak]

Why don't you wanna renege?

[wicked pendant]

mostly happy w the offer and dont wanna burn bridges

nyc seems fun

[azure zephyr]

then why not just take the offer?

[young peak]

It's not burning bridges, just a new opportunity showed up

[azure zephyr]

oh wait nvm i see u have google and apple

[wicked pendant]

thats what im planning on, just cancelling google and apple

[azure zephyr]

doesn't google take a really long time though

[radiant juniper]

goat

if you have a competing offer, google speeds it up

[wicked pendant]

yeah i dont trust either of them LOL both are kinda weird rn

[young peak]

What's this company you have that you're willing to just stop G and Apple for?

[azure zephyr]

like once you pass interview it could be months to get team matched?

[vestal pelican]

Yogi showing the way just like a yogi lol

[young peak]

Yeah but they heard the company names and didn't care too much

gave me lowest possible offer for the role...

350k

naw

recruiter kinda laughed tbh

atleast they considered nego lmfao

[azure zephyr]

also has anyone heard back from paramount?

[young peak]

Meta straight up rejected saying they don't nego lmfao

only thing I got changed was getting to NYC office

but damn they were really adament about the no nego thing

[wicked pendant]

i had atlassian and bloomberg, took bloomberg. google isnt hiring for nyc and apple ict3 nyc will pretty much be the same tc and im not great at interviewing regardless

[young peak]

I'd be more bullish with quants looking back, maybe just say hey I'd like $X more and I'll sign rather than doing it the normal way

[cobalt siren]

any reason why bb over atlassian?

[wicked pendant]

i cant do full remote im soo shit at focusing LOL

[young peak]

You got atlassian and bloomberg, I'd say you're good enough tho. Either way BB is a great place to be starting out so congrats!

[cobalt siren]

LOL gotcha i wanna do remote but i know it's rough as an ng

[livid citrus]

is bloomberg still doing interviews

i just applied

[cobalt siren]

@wicked pendant btw how did you do on atlassian OA? I did 2/3 wondering if thats enough

[vestal pelican]

They are pretty booked

[wicked pendant]

yeah ofc i did such shit on atlassian oa

i got 1/3 full and partial on the other 2

[vestal pelican]

I got mine two days ago that it's all the way in mid October

[livid citrus]

damn

[vestal pelican]

Bloom is like 180k right?

[wicked pendant]

yeah around there

[cobalt siren]

@wicked pendant do you mind if I dm you about atlassian?

[wicked pendant]

idk what factors they use to calc it but it goes up to 185k

[late kestrel]

i got reached out to early august and im just now wrapping up my VO if that gives u any perspective

[lament summit]

What school?

[wicked pendant]

sure ill send a req

[outer radish]

Holy shit whats ur resume looking like

[young peak]

Just a random T50

[lament summit]

Oh d#amn

[vestal pelican]

Where did you intern?

[young peak]

Pretty standard -- 2 no name internships, some TA work, some freelance exp and like 2 small projects

[primal pike]

if u get into faang at 21. is cs degree worth it

[lament summit]

For all ur apps did u only apply to top companies?

[young peak]

yeah

[primal pike]

this final classes are killing me

[young peak]

Yeah I tried to target companies that could sponsor

I'm international so that was really important to me

[lament summit]

Sheesh

[autumn ridge]

Full time or for intern?

[primal pike]

lets say FT

amazon sde

[lament summit]

I’ve got 2 big ns on my resume and am not getting even near close to the response rate as urs

[vestal pelican]

Just finish it lol

[late kestrel]

year diff

[primal pike]

help me

[young peak]

this app cycle sucks ass

[primal pike]

i have money

[young peak]

@cedar nebula are you Cito?

[lament summit]

[young peak]

nvm

your pfp is the same as another guy in G

[autumn ridge]

If you can probably worth it to finish the degree especially if your close but if you have finical commitments or have to take out a bunch of loans then might make sense to drop. You can always do WGU or something online.

[vestal pelican]

L

[ivory stratus]

Yeah said I got moved on to DN

[young peak]

I've heard some people were extending out college by underloading so they can wait till next year to apply new grad

thats so bad lmao

[smoky lodge]

What is this expedia strength based assessment

[vestal pelican]

Right they are missing out swe salary + paying tuition

[ivory stratus]

They see which candidates can bench press the most and then go onto squid games

[vestal pelican]

That is easily 250k+ wasted

[night magnet]

And the benefit of 1 yoe

[young peak]

You're worried they'll stop hiring by the time you interview?

[vestal pelican]

Tru

[ivory stratus]

How they low balling?

[young peak]

you'd get higher standard offers at all the other FAANGs generally

Apologies for the delay. We were asked by leadership to hold off on moving forward with candidates while they made changes to the interview process and training. I'm hoping we can jump back into things in the next 3-4 weeks. I know that feels a bit far out, so I understand if you have to remove yourself from the process, but I'm hoping we can reconnect soon once we have the green light. If anything changes on your end, please let me know.

Thank you, and have a great week!

Best,

Adriana

Easy, LC meds

[alpine matrix]

When did you apply?

[tardy geode]

can anybody tell the Space Complexity for this?

[vestal pelican]

ig overvalued isnt a good term but rather for being an unicorn it doesn't have much room for growth anymore as other unicorns

this metric is somewhat bias to newer social medias

[smoky lodge]

Wouldn’t it just be O(n)

[vestal pelican]

more people have been spending more time on phones over time so ofc newer apps would break the fastest record
