[slow quarry]

nope its sorted so its a bitchy binary search

[rustic topaz]

binary search?

so many solution

🤔

[stark basin]

a lot of things have many solutions

[final cobalt]

Go to leetcode discuss

[slow quarry]

https://leetcode.com/problems/find-k-closest-elements/

[final cobalt]

And just read the top person’s implementation

[rustic topaz]

ok

[stark basin]

thank god I hate quickselect

[slow quarry]

quickselect is N bin search is log n lol

in different leagues

[rustic topaz]

no

[slow quarry]

no lol

k closest numbers isnt quickselet

[rustic topaz]

https://leetcode.com/problems/find-k-closest-elements/

[stark basin]

k closest is heap

[slow quarry]

u can do quickselect for k points yea

[rustic topaz]

this question is in heap section

[slow quarry]

that quickselect >> heap >> sort

[rustic topaz]

nvm it's not

They want you to use binary search lol

[stark basin]

if they ask me "can you do better" after I do the heap solution I'll begrudgingly do quickselect

but otherwise fuck that

[rustic topaz]

Soo when it says sorted, I use binary search?

🤔

[stark basin]

it's a choice

certainly

koko

another big time to use binary search is like
xxxxxooooooo

and you have to find where the line between x and o is

[rustic topaz]

tbh, I didn't learn many sorting algo or searching beside merge sort and binary search

[stark basin]

DFS for backtracking and shit

BFS for shortest path/level order and stuff

and easy to write

[honest spire]

bfs is good for rotting oranges

[stark basin]

i don't know why but that question always bothers me
like it's easy but I always get bugs

[hallow scroll]

[honest spire]

i mean

it's a medium

[stark basin]

[rustic topaz]

@slow quarry what about winter?

[quaint bolt]

Ain't no way bro

[coarse marten]

mad cuz bad

jkjk

[rustic topaz]

Isn't Rust better than C++ or something??

like Rust is more modern

[slow quarry]

i mean ur not wrong ; I had 0 systems exp at the time

[honest spire]

Rust -> cpp

[slow quarry]

hiring managers didnt want me

[honest spire]

I literally have rust on my resume

[quaint bolt]

dw dracos when I get C++ search infra at gooble I'll be sure to rub it in

[rustic topaz]

where you intering for winter?

[coarse marten]

imagine, hiring a freshman with 0 exp on C++ for a C++ role

[slow quarry]

it fixes issues c/cpp has but its not respected for hft cpp better

[rustic topaz]

bro wants quant

[coarse marten]

quant simp

[honest spire]

hrt

[rustic topaz]

what do you do afte you get into jane street or hrt?

[slow quarry]

i had option to do a small startup winter or Hubspot(ran out of winter space -> fall defer) for 2022 but reneged it when i got fb ; resume value I didnt need anymore

[quaint bolt]

quant overrated tbh

[coarse marten]

was it remote?

[slow quarry]

both were remote

[rustic topaz]

Dracos is cracked

[slow quarry]

but i didnt want to do a random startup for no reason

[coarse marten]

you should have done the 3 internships first year strategy

[honest spire]

@slow quarry should I switch my rust project to cpp

[eternal hornet]

did you already sign a contract and everything?

[honest spire]

[slow quarry]

[slow quarry]

dude my school doesnt even teach cpp till 500 lvl classes

[eternal hornet]

man, I think I'll apply for fall 2023 and take a break next year

maybe

[slow quarry]

like all my cpp and rust shit has been self study

[proud whale]

Why do u call it cpp

And not like c++

[honest spire]

My school teaches cpp in its introductory class

[eternal hornet]

or at least become a part time student

[slow quarry]

bc pp is easier to type than ++

when u cant see ur keyboard

[honest spire]

pp

[proud whale]

I’m sold

this question is makin me confuused

@honest spire can you solve this?https://leetcode.com/problems/find-k-closest-elements/

[coarse marten]

Did you do prerequisites?

http://nil.csail.mit.edu/6.824/2021/index.html

[devout jewel]

u have to use binary search if i remember correctly

[rustic topaz]

yea

but this thing says

you gotta use minheap too

🤔

I can't figure out a way

[devout jewel]

nah u don't

im pretty sure u can only do binary search

neetcode solution is something about a window

[rustic topaz]

Okay

I might just do his solution

I was going through top k patterns

[honest spire]

It’s bedtime

Or binary search -> heap

Yeah

I mean

Is outwardly sliding window more efficient

Maybe

You didn’t tell me you were a fighter jet my boy

[coarse marten]

You got it in the bag

[eternal hornet]

unironically tempted to drop out of school just to do leetcode and personal projects

i hate being so nervous for interviews

[ivory ocean]

You’re gonna kill it

[eternal hornet]

to the point where I'm willing to just take a break from school

[coarse marten]

Take a semester off maybe

[ivory ocean]

@eternal hornet really decided “cant be nervous for interviews if I get resume blocked due to having no degree”

Pot

Pog

[mighty path]

Anyone else apply for palantir FDSE

[eternal hornet]

i mean, if I take a break, I'm still going to get a degree, right?

[ivory ocean]

Oh a break yes

You said drop out

[mighty path]

I wonder if it’s too late for me to take a sem abroad

I kinda only have major courses left

[coarse marten]

If you continue yes

[ivory ocean]

Never too late

Minor in something stupid easy

Boom

[mighty path]

If I go Munich would be pogO

[ivory ocean]

Extra couple courses to do abroad

[eternal hornet]

like, my graduation date is 2024, but I could technically graduate fall 2023

[mighty path]

beer all day every day

[eternal hornet]

so what if I took fall 2023 off

[mighty path]

Literally me

[eternal hornet]

maybe try to do an internship then

[mighty path]

literally me

[eternal hornet]

and then I would still grad spring 2024

[ivory ocean]

Or

Do less classes per sem

[eternal hornet]

when I finish my final semester after a calmer semester of job apps

[ivory ocean]

Enjoy your college life

Go wild

But also do LC

[eternal hornet]

i am incapable of doing that

and it may be too late

Oh

Never too late

[ivory ocean]

Show up at any house party with a bottle of liquor

[ivory ocean]

Bro no way did you say it’s too late after 1 year

I mean if you don’t want to fair enough

[eternal hornet]

i'm just tired of being burnt out but unaccomplished

[ivory ocean]

But to say it’s too late after one mf year lmaooo

[eternal hornet]

i spent all of last year trying to keep my head above water with classes and my part time job

[mighty path]

[eternal hornet]

and I worked a full time internship and a part time gig this summer

[mighty path]

Amzn still hasn't given me final confirm and I filled out on Aug 2nd

Should I contact them?

I said I'm available yesterday, today, and all of next week

Will amzn reject me if they can't initially schedule without opportunity for reschedule?

Ok

[coarse marten]

You can negotiate more with these top less known firms

[mighty path]

has anyone else applied to palantir fdse or has experience with that process

[spark hearth]

for internships, I fell like it's better to have well known firms

[hoary basalt]

are there two Jane street rejection emails

[spark hearth]

no, only 1

you got two because jane street felt like your application was so bad, it deserved to be rejected for next year also

[mighty path]

💀

pre-emptive strike

[sinful locust]

imma make a partners firm

[pseudo shoal]

amazon doesn’t seem bad only 45 min interview that’s it

[sinful locust]

yeah

[hallow scroll]

honestly the hardest part is the behavioral, its like an hour long right

[sinful locust]

its not bad

[soft basin]

the bad part is the probability of getting a hard

[pseudo shoal]

i’m guess 15 mins behavior, 30 min coding ?

[pseudo shoal]

stoooopppppp

[brisk forge]

Question for those who have worked or interned at Facebook prior to Oct 2021 and are applying for internships/jobs this year. Are you putting Facebook or Meta on your resume? Unsure of what I should put

[hallow scroll]

I just wanna get through today without getting rejected 😩

[soft basin]

[hallow scroll]

[soft basin]

ur one of the better problem solvers ik

[plush flume]

I am so over Amazon rn. Do you think C1 > Amazon as a sophomore

[hallow scroll]

🧢

[soft basin]

i’m one of the worst problem solvers 😭

[soft basin]

c1 is good money but amazon is good resume value

[hallow scroll]

Amazon is good money too tho

[soft basin]

c1 pays more intern

like 65 an hour i think

[hallow scroll]

It’s like 65/hr + 2.5k a month

That’s like

80 an hour

[soft basin]

sheesh

that’s hard to refuse for me

[plush flume]

C1 and zon pay is same in ther end but zon u gotta work 2 weeks more

It’s fortune 100 with school me

[soft basin]

capital one is one of the better banks tho

[plush flume]

Capital one

[stark basin]

🧢 1

[hallow scroll]

[sick oar]

[hallow scroll]

[hallow scroll]

Yeah 65 is for SF and NYC

[sick oar]

for bay area it’s like 60.50

[plush flume]

Jane street

[hallow scroll]

Well at least this year it is

[stark basin]

just do nothing until amazon comes out

[soft basin]

amz would provide more value on ur resume than c1 then

[sick oar]

nah it’s 60.50 for bay and 58 for nyc

[hallow scroll]

Say no more

[stark basin]

i recommend jedi fallen order

[hallow scroll]

Not that bad I’ve just been lazy

[sinful locust]

[soft basin]

[plush flume]

I meant like getting into finance and tech would a bank not be better value

Idk

It’s wtv

[sick oar]

not the way amazon calculates months

[hallow scroll]

Hm maybe I’m wrong but I’m p sure I asked someone that got an offer awhile ago and it was like 65

[sinful locust]

Oh Amazon

I thought u meant c1

[sick oar]

ah

[soft basin]

he does mean c1 lmao

i’m p shre

[pseudo shoal]

does amazon offer remote or do u have to go to seattle

[sinful locust]

He said Amazon

[plush flume]

I got a 65 usd for C1 in NYC

[limber mesa]

don't remember applying for SIG quant role, got OA today 😨

[sick oar]

nope, our offers show monthly

[hallow scroll]

Makes sense, he’s Bay Area so I knew it was 60 something

[sick oar]

amazon says there’s 173.3333 hours per month

so you can do the math from there

[hallow scroll]

I think i got the 65 from another company

[stark basin]

Amazon Irvine is uh
$9138 a month + ~$1800 relocation

akuna is 65

[sick oar]

after tax it’s like 9k? 9.5k?

for amzn + relo

[plush flume]

It’s Canada that’s why

[stark basin]

i think relocation isn't taxed
so it's whatever 9138 is after tax

[soft basin]

canada is mid

[plush flume]

Fr I am in Canada didn’t wanna apply to Canada

[sick oar]

yeah ik it’s like 30-33% tax for nyc or sf

[stark basin]

christ

[soft basin]

only good thing abt canada is drinking age

[sick oar]

so 10k * .68 + 2425

[plush flume]

[plush flume]

Wish it was part time

[stark basin]

though to be fair
it's a lot better making $15 an hour often literally doing nothing than making like $18 an hour driving the school bus

-dean

my school's db gets hacked into every week

[stark basin]

maybe a little bootstrap 3 once in a while

[sinful locust]

like almost every 3 month i get an email saying "there has been a data breach"

[long slate]

I’ve never used it but I’ve only heard bad things

[sinful locust]

i feel like

[stark basin]

do we have web dev courses here

[sinful locust]

[long slate]

[sinful locust]

[sinful locust]

"its natrual selection" -dean

[long slate]

There’s 122b

[stark basin]

[long slate]

Which is backend and database

[stark basin]

oh pfft

[long slate]

[hallow scroll]

Web dev classes are terrible

[sinful locust]

my school should at least outsource its db and sensetive data mngmt to orancle or sumshi

[hallow scroll]

My professor is a dinosaur and all we did was html and jquery

[sinful locust]

🤮

[stark basin]

the only good web dev class is that course from U of Helsinki or whatever

[sinful locust]

jquery's syntax makes me cringe

[hallow scroll]

$

[long slate]

YES

I love that

[stark basin]

React and Node mostly
Redux Typescript etc.

the works

[stark basin]

10/10

[long slate]

10/10

[stark basin]

haven't gotten here yet

[long slate]

I did like three parts and dropped it

[stark basin]

I stopped after like the 3rd part

[long slate]

Honestly that was enough to make a full project

LMFAO

[stark basin]

cause I got my project

and I hate web dev

[sinful locust]

i said i was gonna use that website

@sinful locust recommended

i just used youtube

lol

and made 4 fullstack rpojects

in a week

💀

[stark basin]

backend is less terrible than frontend

certainly

[sinful locust]

depends what it is

if its easy routing then sure lmao

but if its some hard model routing controller backend nodejs express pipeline heroku mongodb sql

then its harder

[long slate]

Idk I’m sure making things move and fit 10 billion screens is fun

[stark basin]

i like programming without worrying about how shit should look

backend is fun once you get through the boilerplate

[sinful locust]

yeah of course

OH UH

but wdym by backend

lmao

like simple node/express is easy af sure

but once u get into the hard stuff

its really complicated

like scaling an entire websites system

[stark basin]

anything that doesn't make me use CSS
I don't mind complicated

[sinful locust]

dont use css

use tailwind

lmao

[stark basin]

we're forced to use bootstrap and I don't care enough about visual stuff to learn other libraries

[long slate]

Any chakra ui enjoyers

[sinful locust]

[earnest hatch]

Some people started getting OAs for SWE

[obsidian willow]

I think this was only for people who applied with a special university link and not the general application

[earnest hatch]

Yeah that's what it looks like from that /r/csmajors comments. They start the general app process later in August/Sep.
