yeah bawb I think I remember seeing your resume before youre cracked lol
bawb will get enough interviews to where i think he’ll bag one of {cit, hrt, js, 2s} 
k
lmaoo
but yeah SIG is known to be worse in comparison to other quants and faangs
in terms of salary for sure
sig swe is a scam
@bleak oxide 
i saw a sorority girl on tinder from a noname school working at sig as swe so idt the bar is that high
lol
its on the same level as palantir
huh
thank God man
no way nasa on the same level as palantir
I need somewhere to fucking work this fall
applied to everything near me
for fucking 7 months
Pay is prolly shit but fuck it man
yea palantir resume bar is way too high
Rather do that than work at the market
yo whats NG tc at mcdonalds
35k
what is sde10 then
dont give up 

only for u
bro is goated working at cb this fall
the interns got lucky we didn't get effected lol
in some places thats below min 😭
is it at least remote?
federal is way lower i guess
bro i got paid <$15 at my first swe internship LMFAO
Bro min in nyc is like $15
I have G on my resume
Should i try and negotiate
If they hit me bacl
bro u shouldnt even take it
lmaooo
aim for something good in the summer
bro i need it for fall
he has google next summer, but hes looking for fall i think
well hopefully somt startups hit me back
bro do u need a fall internship?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^\
retool, nuro, ramp maybe?
^
yeah agreed
for intern anything fintech like stripe, plaid etc
but id take those over amzn
but nothing fulltime
when it comes to startups rank them based off your interest in their product + anything else you prioritize like wlb, engineering culture etc
ranking of companies, especially startups since theres a lot can be subjective
does databricks still have interesting work to do there?
yeah thats true, what I meant by that point was that if the product/mission is something you're interested in general you'll probably be happy working there. That also depends tho if the work is interesting which I think your best bet on finding out is talking to current employees
Ye that's facts
I feel like its more so a cherry on top, even if I liked the mission, if I was working on absolutely boring work I probably wouldn't like it
ty haha
ye @hallow scroll goated
What kind of people do you guys ussually put as references for applications?
Would you work on a boring stuff for a doubled TC?
CEO
theyre not gonna check unless its a rly small startup
thats all you bro 😩
This one I’m doing wants 3 so I think they might
depends on a lot of factors
like how much I was making before, what the previous company was, do I need money rn etc
but most likely not
Nah neo
ah I see
Akuna wanted it too and I can just barely scrape together 3
good luck though


paper money
true lmfao
if i get JS or optiver or cit imma renege for google
cause google brain or google x insnely good teams
well google x is different, brain is team but still

It’s all rng
keep in mind tagged also has questions they ask non interns
ive rarely seen someone interviewing for intern role get asked a hard
course schedule?
yee
yeah this
nah pretty sure its more sys des
@hearty river
yeah idk companies are wack
💯
it was my first interview, got a graph problem and I didn't have exp with graphs prior
I started lc like 2 weeks before my amazon final
and I hadn't take DSA yet either
lol
yeah that and arrays/strings

I meant for amazon tho in that context
how did you think you did? 😩
yeah facts
gl you got this
jesus
same i feel this as well
wtf?
thats just u bro
small talk is for ppl u dont care about
new email?
wtf
merge accounts

ok so i actually do have all of those
i got a new phone number recently and i can use school residence or my parents house
theres a 6 month cooldown?
LMAO STFU
Why are you pinging me randomly
And tobro
bro shut up
yo

sus
bro stop
Stop pinging me @sinful locust
dude it’s legit u lmfao
it was u before too
Hi
no
you can reject a project match
it has to be a mutual agreement
ofc that’s risky but just be good enough for a guaranteed offer 
i had no idea you were alive
@uneven sand yo
stop
yo i heard ur only meeting up with people if theyre FAANG+
why
is that a joke
im in virginia
wdym
so if someones in ur area u wont meet up if theyre amazon?
cant tell if ur joing or not
netflix is?

i'm pretty sure FAANG isn't saying how elite the company or its employees are
it's just saying that they're part of the Big Four or Big Five techs
and Amazon is definitely fking BIG
Thats what its intended to mean but nowadays its kinda used to imply eliteness
Which is weird cuz theres plenty of unicorns/fintech/quants that would be considered more “elite” to work for
But ig those 5 are also super well-known
internship don't demonstrate intellect
not really though, those companies rank in the top 50 on the planet

lmao
not having an internship doesn't mean you're dumb
the opposite brotha
having one shows you either grinded, or are smart enough to pass without
also facts
5 out of 50
Implies there are plenty of others
i dont think 45 companies in a pool of hundreds of millions is plenty
Compared to 5 it is
Wait are you arguing with yourself? You brought up the 50 number

Continue
rip
good shit!
Hi
Yea unfortunately we tend to judge other CS students based on their internships lol
I feel like someone who went to FAANG just knows what they're doing, at least they know what they're doing (kind of)
But there are some smart people who choose not to work at FAANG+
I definitely know a couple of them so they do exist
That is one
Another reason could be because of religious/ethical reasons
Yo
to be fair someone who did a self-startup, you can probably assume they know what they're doing
^^^ agree with this
nah
No I mean like
How do you differentiate good vs bad internships
Like how do you even quantitatively/qualitatively compare between two different internships
I mean it has to be an objective comparison right
there's no good way to measure this
^^^^
My problem with your argument is that
if you like the company you're working at and you feel like you're learning then it's good 
There's no measure of prestige
bro people don't admit it
technical interviews are really luck based
If you have seen question before
stop
levels.fyi top pay for interns 😂
But you shouldn't gauge peoples intellect on where they work
^^^ exactly
I think it's a flawed indicator
damn tell that to the quants
I think it's just that you want to work at faang so you see anyone who already works there as someone who shares your ambitions
FAANG interviews are not really standardized IMO
not braindead and smart are two diff things
How can you be sure that every interviewee gets the same level of question difficulties?
^
I think it's the complete opposite of this lol
Bro, there is not one end all be all that makes someone smart
There are many aspects
yea thats why we have to make assumptions 🙂
ye but that assumption is based on incorrect facts
There exists some ppl in that category
Bro ik people who interviewed at FAANG they got asked tagged questions
definitely
im not saying it's not hard
well then you can say the same thing about colleges in the US
If you don't go to top college
You haven't proven yourself
Bruh
nah bruh
bro ik someone who got into brown, columbia, and dartmouth and didn't go to either one
yeah but exceptions dont mean anything
bruh he just being elitist
yea
sure seems like it
Ye bro some people don't want to spend their whole day studying
That doesn't mean they are not smart
it's called diff priorities
Yea exactly
I mean logically speaking
You can be brilliant but just choose not to give a damn about grades for example
That's definitely possible
exactly
But you made it seem like FAANG is the only way to prove your worth
Well how do you know that your approximation is accurate?
bro peep
I dont go to a top college and I landed good offers and interviewed with good companies lol
You're just cracked fam
ye he is super cracked
i get what youre saying but I think the way you worded it confused people a little
yeah and same for schools. on AVERAGE, someone who goes to a better school is more capable than someone who didnt
no you guys are 😩
Pls teach me ur ways 🙏
nah financials plays a big role
on average
i mean ye ig
Ya sure
only God can judge you
so yea you can make predictions based off of that if thats the only piece of info u have
i’m god
I agree with this, but I just hope that you do not judge other people like that lol
^ this
Exactly
what's going on here 

dude stop arguing over simple shit just make sure ur resume sounds good to an HR person and grind LC
end of the story
^
Except yourself
lmaooo
🤣
🧢 im about to go grind
what alt matati said 
alt speaking facts
👀
Stop
no point in stressing over the details or what indicates what, focus on yourself and your own goals 💯
@quaint bolt heyyyyyyyy thoughts on dabi roleeeeeeeee

fb chad cucks amzn virgin





sometimes i cant tell if the people in this server are trolling or what
im trolling
but you're all such a sad and repressed group
all offense intended
nah except you and a few other ppl lol
No he isn’t
Then you are a friend of no one
Same (except I’m no longer friends with dabi if this sandwich sucks)
Thats yahkuna everyday

does anyone have good resources on real world uses for bitwise?
none

none
Stop
float Q_rsqrt( float number )
{
long i;
float x2, y;
const float threehalfs = 1.5F;
x2 = number * 0.5F;
y = number;
i = * ( long * ) &y; // evil floating point bit level hacking
i = 0x5f3759df - ( i >> 1 ); // what the fuck?
y = * ( float * ) &i;
y = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) ); // 1st iteration
// y = y * ( threehalfs - ( x2 * y * y ) ); // 2nd iteration, this can be removed
return y;
}

tbh the compiler should be doing all those optimizations not you
i remember my teacher showed us this and was like he didnt even know what it meant
yeah, its for an interview. They told me ot be proficient in real world uses of bitwise and its functionality.
i dont think anyone knows what it means
I think they tracked down the origin to a lab in IBM or something like that but no one knows who wrote that insane line of code
if you are doing simd, you would need to master bitwise
isnt that from quake 3 or something
ye its inverse root. I think they used it to track the bullet or something like that. My prof made the CustomTF mod for quack back in the day lol
yeah, someone posted something about it
was like pymetrics type kinda iirc
the numerical test??
wtf
i mean like round 3 @earnest hatch
the numberlogic thing
oh nevermind I might not be remembering correctly


idk anyone who made
round 3 yet
is numberlogic sequences?
idek what to study
sequences or SHL numeric reasoning
or brain teasers
lmao
ig all 3? 😭

my mandarin is not good because i am not chinese

so
oops
but
also have optiver swe OAs been sent out yet?
yeah
noooo
wut
Can you send the one for the regular one?
Like in the same initial oa part 3
If so u can’t rly study, j send it

@earnest hatch
Go through system design primer as well

numberlogic

ive been studying a wittle
is this for trader or swe?
They don’t want an incoming fresh 😂
Pretty sure it’s auto reject for anything under 2024
prolly not, but js loves giving out trader interviews
my friend got js trader first-year
new pfp 
Oh I thought this was for swe
damn
yeah lol
js trader resume bar is known to be p low
but thats why they have 3 phones b4 onsite 
910 ?
21
hired

me ?
blacklisted
calm down
why ?
stop
why ?
yooo i fw the luffy pfp
luffy the goat
no idea dude
not my question lmao
wat
i finally was able to get pacific atlantic waterflow
its finally ending
then just apply
yeah I took a lil break from the anime to read the manga
ont he phones
read glassdoor
9 + 10
insane reveals
i cant wait to see what arcs they have coming up
wano took way too long tho
my friend who got js trader internship said grinding glassdoor helped the most
next one's the final arc

like optiver 
thats true but it was a huge ramp up. yonko 1st commander to yonko level takes a while
i thought it was the final saga
saga has arcs and etc

oh right mb final saga
ok
you need to make an account
being new 
you'll also prolly need to submit a review of a company for full access
just submit an internship salary off levels.fyi
that did it for me
5head
also i kinda want yamato to join the straw hat crew
then just search for the company and look at the interview qs for whatever position
i think she is
she's def joining
I can see ||Akainu vs Yamato|| happening
brook >>>
im also intruiged by the flower dude
nah its gotta be ||akainu vs sabo ||
chopper supremacy
||Zoro's dad|| 
mans deserves an actual bounty
tru there's that too
maybe they team up
at least we got joyboy now 😈
hey
im not tryna game the system, i just want to add a referral to my application
talking about doing this specifically
Ur question was whether or not to apply and I answered it 
this isnt my reddit thread btw
lol i saw this earlier, id just call amazon and ask about it
okay i guess i can email them
i think i made a big mistake by applying without referral
ive heard otherwise
idk
i have 2 plus 1 incoming
and havent gotten it yet
amazon oa is random chance
they give anyone a chance lol
i have 0 internship but i got oa
maybe ill wait until 2nd batch is sent out
and if i dont get it ill try to app again with referral
btw
is that normal?
i heard people talking about having "application submitted" on both?
two diff websites and two diff accounts
anyone who got capital one interview, what'd u get on codesignal
no way right
amazon doesnt even blacklist for reneging
why would they blacklist for duplicate apps
idk bruh
They don’t
i did duplicate apps for amazon and still got the oa
leetcode-cn.com looks cooler than leetcode.com
w a referral for the email that i didnt get oa for lol
anyone have any experience successfully getting past amazon cooldown?
i used new email, new phone and new address
does c1 blacklist for multiple apps btw
Bring back your old pfp
yo
Idk if I got the interview but I got a follow up email
did it ask about ur info
like grad date, h1b, etc
Yeah
Hi

@ember bison

@sinful locust
how much does tren cost

Does the snapshot survey on the google OA like the work preferences have to be written like Amazon LP questions but google stuff instead
LOL
are you programming rn
I am leetcoding
bring back isha
U r mad lad for using light mode
light mode is good
it hurts your eyes so it makes you use discord less
which is a net good for you
what
light mode hurts your eyes less?
🧢
Lightmode only acceptable if you outside or smt
Nope, he's indoors like the rest of us
anyone know if optiver swe oa was auto or if they resume screen before
in the email they say they reviewed resume but i’m skeptical
they review resume b4 and after i think
wait OA is unlimited time
:brainh:
what's OA?
lmao
got it
imposter syndrome hits hard during leetcode 😩
False
Yeah sometimes
depends on which companies ur interviewing at
dont study hards for capital 1
but if ur interviewing at cit or smth
u should brush up on the popular ones
yea
like i got stream median for cit
also is there a difference between leetcode.com and leetcode.cn
someone pls tell me back tracking is uncommon
oh i hear chinese version looks better tho
this shit is too hard
are premium questions free in chinese lc?
1p3a is insane
hey guys, so if I wasn’t able to do question 2 and question 3 in the palantir karat and I messed up the technical portion at the beginning should I redo?
yes lol
people who've passed have done 2-3 questions
my friend whos interning there rn
passed 2
chinese is such a pain to learn
and on his interview sheet they said he was "weak technically"
so do 3 to be on the safe side
it’s my native language but then english took over
gotta do what we gotta do
the payoff is worth it imo
for my lord and savior xi jinping
i still can't code a binary search properly
Are u doing the LC binary search doc thing
Or r u just saying in general
i hate lc binary search
in general
i did a random citadel tagged problem
couldnt figure out how to make pass under time constraints
till i realized i could just BS it
binary search can go suck a caterpillar dick
stop
people were getting too good at solving LC interview questions. now Faang is asking people to solve questions with a chinese keyboard and no mouse (vim style)
i use vim 
and vim is not hard
ok fine i lied, i use nvim
can you use vim with chinese characters
i tried to learn it and got nothing done
im sure theres a breaking point where you become more productive
yes.
:giga:
while we're on the topic of neovim
id like to share sth w everyone
An attempt to make neovim cli as functional as an IDE while being very beautiful, blazing fast
bloat
how do i make vim look like that
is it just that plugin
real chads only use syntax highlighting
ty
that screenshot looks like vscode
i would first suggest u to add the vim plugin for vscode
it took me 3 month to learn the basics
i shit u not
thats a big time commitment but i guess i get to feel cool at the end of 3 months
ya u cant go back once it clicks
is it intentional that u cant go back a line after u make a new line in vim
in insert mode
sometimes
am i tripping
i type a line in insert mode, hit return, type more lines. but then i spam backspace and when i reach the far left, it doesnt delete the whole line and go back to the first line like in most editors
is the fastest solution then to exit insert mode then press dd and go back to insert mode
what about space complexity
I think its exponential
Mr Davis
the whole idea is that you never really have to leave the terminal right
cd into project dir, make edits in vim, use github cli to push changes
You are a vim god
I dont really know anything about vim
No
What’s IntelliJ
i only use Txt files
ya
vscode supremacy
You’re still almost def gonna use an IDE but with vim plugins lol
So I wouldn’t recommend just completely using vim, depending on where you’re working your IDE will prolly have a lot of useful features that you’ll want
i had installed something like intellij for vim and i had an issue where i would save the file all the time so that i could get error squigglies updated, is there a workaround or do i just have to get better at detecting my own errors
Your errors don’t come up dynamically on IntelliJ?
Have you set up the SDK properly?
Hmm I haven’t used Rust and IntelliJ before, it’s def a Rust-IntelliJ integration thing
The only time I use IntelliJ is when I’m writing Java (which is this entire internship sadly
)
Try VSCode
yea it works great in vscode
it sounds like intellij works better in more mainstream languages
in vim
i love vscode extensions
You’re too late, they opened a couple years ago for Summer 23
(They haven’t opened yet)
Didnt you read their mission
they want employees who give 110%
was it for an internship
wow
is this a really selective company then
Wow
thats much more than most people will ever make
Woah
i installed NvChad and it looks great already
huh
i cant do it in nvim
is this nvchad th
where do i put the command " th"
it didnt work in nvim
oh
I was literally putting the space in the command
Lmao
my friend turned in a fake resume and got citadel OA 🤣
wow
its given to everyone but
i thought theyd at least check
if it was legit
no
some weird name
and his only experience was preventing nuclear warfare at palantir
ok this makes me want to learn vim a lot more thx Dr Aight
yeah i saw that OA
and lemme just say
im pushing it back 2-3 weeks 🤣
Nah this time it's easier IMO
Well when I said easier it's not like LC easy lol
For me one is medium equivalent I guess, and the other one is pretty easy if you know the right data structure to use (but this DS is a bit on the uncommon side)
does it depend on if i do two signings or not, idk
Yep exactly
