bc its like more about computations

halcyon topaz
#

ya exactly its applied to a system alaywas

abstract wadi
#

my degree was all proofs about existence of stuff barely any comptuations

halcyon topaz
#

pure computer science is a lot of that though isnt it?

abstract wadi
#

in cs you just take an algos course os course discrete math theory of computation its very standard

hollow flicker
#

Compared to the subreddit it's literally heaven

halcyon topaz
#

the subreddit is terrible dude

hollow flicker
#

Bro it's beyond that

#

It's like

swift falcon
#

😮

hollow flicker
#

You see the WORST shit EVER POSSIBLE on there

swift falcon
#

same job is active/inactive lol

halcyon topaz
#

so many cs grads who are entitled to a job wondering why they arent hired making 300k when they are just the same copy and pasted applicant imo

halcyon topaz
hollow flicker
#

Lol fr bro like I'm just some random CS grad. I just want a role with SOME level of transferability and that's IT

swift falcon
hollow flicker
#

Fuckin 300k? Gimme 65k literally if it's gonna be a good experience

halcyon topaz
#

ya idk what they expect

#

if you get a degree it doesnt really mean youre entitled to get payed hella

hollow flicker
#

Do they forget most people arent making 75k?

#

Like ever

halcyon topaz
#

yes

hollow flicker
#

That's insane to me but yeah

halcyon topaz
#

even in california its like if youre making 115 you still get taxed + COL

#

but a lot of people arent even in cali

#

so they have a warped perception from all the bay area cs kids

hollow flicker
#

It's weird because a lot of the people who I went to the school with did not have this mindset

#

Like they did not care what their job is

abstract wadi
#

Im in this regardless of the pay

hollow flicker
#

Literally me too

abstract wadi
#

I can't not do something technical like coding

halcyon topaz
#

same

hollow flicker
#

MI but I went to a mid school

hollow flicker
abstract wadi
#

i cant just make powerpoints i gotta have some thing where its like quantitiative or technical somehow

halcyon topaz
#

same

#

cs was just an obvious choice for me when i decided not to do a PhD to get into industry

abstract wadi
#

i wish i could just sit around and teach myself math so i gotta settle for coding which i liked before math

hollow flicker
#

I'll bartend and live with my friends till I'm ancient

halcyon topaz
#

beter work life balance

hollow flicker
#

Hell yeah lmfao

abstract wadi
halcyon topaz
#

ya same

hollow flicker
#

I just want any job that I can use on my resume, even if to only get a slightly cooler job

#

With slightly more money

#

Like man if I can just stay low COL forever I'd be pretty pleased

abstract wadi
#

The world doesn't even need more softwaer engineers

#

but i dont think it needs more bankers or business poeple either

#

most jobs are totally useless

hollow flicker
#

You're right probably

halcyon topaz
#

ikr

hollow flicker
#

Well you're just doing someone's project

#

It's whatever

abstract wadi
#

most of the stuff is just beurocracy

halcyon topaz
#

people think cs is saturated? med school dentist school law school etc been saturated for years

abstract wadi
#

not med its capped

hollow flicker
#

I should have done med

abstract wadi
#

you can only have x number of doctors every year theyre smart

abstract wadi
halcyon topaz
#

but you gotta go through the process still for med school

abstract wadi
#

if u fuck up tech ur still probably going to google someday

hollow flicker
#

Ik, hahaha

halcyon topaz
#

everyone who doesnt to engineering does med school as far as ive seen

hollow flicker
#

Joking for sure

#

My dads a doc and I don't think it seems fun at all

abstract wadi
#

best thing to do is get hooked up with a sweet finance job skipping all the intro gruntwork stuff and making bank

hollow flicker

swift falcon
rain patio
#

That’s why I say u gotta rizz ur interviewer

hollow flicker
#

Well we all still need to know DP

outer radish

outer radish
#

hollow flicker
#

Yeah that's how much I eat to shred to like very low body fat

#

Don't do that these days

swift falcon
#

I've lost like 18lbs, but kind of plataeuing rn, all the junk and water weight is gone so it's actually hard

hollow flicker
#

Nah you cutting too hard

#

Maybe

#

Sometimes it causes slight plateau

#

Idk how tall you are tho

swift falcon
#

6 foot

#

fuck jim bruh

hollow flicker
#

Yeah that's pretty low you could get away with 1600 with no gym and prolly still lose similarly as fast

#

Or faster

#

It's kinda person to person tho

swift falcon
#

I need job before gym tbh

hollow flicker
#

Just do calisthenics and get some dumbbells if you don't actually care about training optimally rn

swift falcon
#

hollow flicker
#

That's what I do and I can train pretty fuckin hard still

Although I have a pull up bar

bold pier
burnt orchid

hollow flicker
#

I mean you knew in the interview what his companies product was so

#

He probably just was a bummer

bold pier
#

I mean you could've lied and used build vs buy common arguments to answer maybe šŸ¤”

hollow flicker
#

Bro if my success in an interview hinges on my past self knowing something, see ya.

bold pier
#

Just search build vs buy, it's about things to consider when building a service yourself vs using a SaaS

hollow flicker
#

Yeah I wouldn't lie but I'd do that kinda answer for sure

hollow flicker
#

like bro its always some stupid fucking trick

#

and im like OKAY WELL I GUESS I AM DUMB

halcyon topaz
#

it dpeneds

#

a lot of them are basically the same algo but theres a few that require some mathematical trick to get the number of permutations of a certain kind of subarray/subset etc

#

like for the product of contiguous subarray thats less than target problem you can return the length of each the valid subarrays because it will total the amount of permutations of the longest contiguous subarray

hollow flicker
#

yeah you are way ahead of me

#

but im working on it ill get to that eventually

ive done all the graph and tree and most of the other data structure based ones

halcyon topaz
#

to me sliding window should be the algorithms where the window is a fixed size

hollow flicker
#

and these two catagories just confuse meee

halcyon topaz
#

two pointers is when it expands or contracts

hollow flicker
#

like some of these sliding windows are expand/contract problems

#

just like the 2 ptr ones

halcyon topaz
#

to me they are just the same algos as two pointers just slightly different

hollow flicker
#

yeah thats helpful for me to realize

#

like permutation in string feels like a 2 pointers

halcyon topaz
#

like for example if you dont have a fixed size window you almost always want to increment the right pointer everytime and then do a while loop on the left pointer

#

if you have a fixed window you want to increment the left pointer everytime

halcyon topaz
#

permutation in a string i actually used a fixed window

#
class Solution:
    def checkInclusion(self, s1: str, s2: str) -> bool:
        k = len(s1)
        count1 = Counter(s1)
        count2 = Counter(s2[:k])
        for l in range(len(s2)-k+1):
            if count1 == count2:
                return True
            count2[s2[l]] -= 1
            if count2[s2[l]] == 0:
                del count2[s2[l]]
            if l + k < len(s2):
                count2[s2[l + k]] = count2.get(s2[l + k], 0) + 1
        return False
hollow flicker
#

yeah i know that solution it just isnt what i naturally arrived at

#

i did the O(26 * n) one

#

and basically increment right and while loop the left on letters that exist in a map but have a value of 0

halcyon topaz
#

Ya some problems you can do either approach

#

I def think sliding window algorithms should be categorized by a fixed window size

hollow flicker
#

yeah lol, lemme read your solution in depth

#

cause i know you can cache to make it O(n) using your method

#

mine i dont thinkk so because my end condition is iterating through a map

halcyon topaz
#

My algorithm is O(n)

hollow flicker
#

you can add syntax highlighting on discord jsyk

#

i do all my LC in C++ and kotlin maybe i should start doing some python

halcyon topaz
#

C++ is dope

hollow flicker

it actually is nice for LC yeah
