yeah bruh if amazon rescinds i wouldnt wanna live in the same town as sushi

elon hatewatchers are just as unbearable as elon fanboys

hot venture

Will u slander Jeff bezos next if Amazon rescinds?

# obsidian olive ngl ion k y ppl defend elon so much

In this case, I was defending misinformation. An Anti-Elon Twitter account isn't an accurate place to find out if Elon Musk has a Physics degree or not. There is proof of him having it on the other sources I posted.

near swallow
#

Dont think anyone truly cares about his credentials except he has lied about it on record since the early 2000s

#

Like his actual degrees

static spindle
hot venture
#

Can someone please tell me if Elon has the degrees he says or not

static spindle
#

joker arc 😳

hardy patrol
#

bro said to turn off friendly fire

static spindle
#

but then again I wouldn't wanna live in any town besides like NYC and Seattle and afaik you're not from those so

#

actually Boston is pretty neat gladge

near swallow
#

Stanford is fake

hot venture
#

Ohh ok thanks, how do u know this?

#

I don’t doubt u, I just got bamboozled multiple times in this convo alr

hardy patrol
#

so is there a repercussion for lying about the degree or is it going to be memory holed in a week

static spindle
#

oh i actually never told you guys

#

but im studying at MIt rn

hot venture
near swallow
#

Dont go on reddit

#

Or twitter

#

But the stanford lie is very real

hot venture
#

Hmm interesting

near swallow
#

It sucks that snopes and politico dont have anything on this

#

Elon should be investigated more

#

Because a ton of memes about him are false

#

I mean if ur still a believer in him after twitter nothing can change your POV anyways

#

You dont belong in this field if you think Elon managed twitter well tbh

#

He asked for printed code reviews

#

Nothing he does after that matters

#

2 brain cell move

#

Sends 3am emails on official business

#

Guy is off his rocker

#

Kanye levels

hot venture
#

Why is he even pretending to know what he’s talking about regarding Twitter systems

static spindle
near swallow
#

Yeah that was dumb to say

#

I guess just an example

#

He clearly has something

earnest hatch
#

Elon Musk is a wild card

hardy patrol
#

at minimum hes eviscerating twitter and providing some entertainment out of it so the deal was a net positive

static spindle
#

no he's on his way

near swallow
#

Tbh this all assumes 4d chess levels of brain

#

Life is not a death note anime

#

He is just impulsive

earnest hatch
static spindle
#

spending 40bln on twitter is already depictive of 0 braincells

hot venture
#

This isn’t too far-fetched tbh

#

It’s just he went overboard

hardy patrol
#

he needs to employ me ill fix it

#

git push a trojan virus into prod

hot venture
#

Probably lost more great engineers than he expected. Or thinks of them as easily replaceable

static spindle
#

yall goofin fr

hot venture
#

Well in the short-term it seems completely opposite of “good management”

hardy patrol
#

this guy

earnest hatch
#

Pay increase doesn't make him any less of an asshole

hardy patrol
#

sushi only got the bag on their mind nothing else matters

#

nightmare spawned from capitalism

near swallow
#

Bro how can u seriously think this lol, this guy had most of the execs walk out on him

#

So that tells you even if he WAS hatching up good plans for businesss, these money hungry execs woulda stayed

#

But they didnt. They left a sinking ship

hardy patrol
#

id be surprised if twitter genuinely goes down like the titanic

near swallow
#

Idk, i just have a lot of faith in execs staying if it means $

hardy patrol
#

dont government officials use it too

earnest hatch
#

Dumb ahhh unbanned neo nazis and had ads showing up on that page instead of blocking it 🤦‍♂️

static spindle
near swallow
#

Tbh it will prob stick around yeah but the culture and prestige is not there anymore

#

As a culture thing

#

Yahoo style

#

But i guess they can keep making $ hard to say

hardy patrol
#

r/whitepeopletwitter been in shambles since the acquisition its like stockholm syndrome

static spindle
#

i will never forgive trump for making twitter a website where you get news

earnest hatch
#

I'm surprised Trump hasn't showed up on Twitter yet despite his unban

hardy patrol
#

signed a contract with parler

no there's another one

HOT SEXY COLLEGE JUNIORS IN YOUR AREA WANT YOU! NOW!

dense spear
#

I didnt get it and ended up alr

#

I feel like the knowledge evaporated from my brain when the interview happened

#

It was my first one so i was too nervous

#

Yeah for sure

#

Helped me center myself for the ones i had later

#

I think everyone needs that first interview flop to understand the level of choke that is possible lol

random tide
#

amber heard a swe now??

dense spear
#

where’d you get the amazon offer at?

#

Like which location

#

It sounds dope

hallow scroll
#

amazon ca a cool 200k

#

oh wait

dense spear
#

I liked canada when I visited

hallow scroll
#

#

lol

dense spear
#

Food was delicious

#

Montreal

#

I had some crazy breakfast poutine from a pub

#

I felt like i was in a French colony lmfao

#

Id like to visit a more english part of canada

#

It sounds cook

#

Cool*

#

Why is waterloo so prestigious anyway

#

I never understood

#

I never heard of it during highschool

#

Ohhhh

#

Yeah i wish more college career centers gave a shit like that

#

Mine is a good college but the career center is just OKAY

#

Like meh

#

The TWO page resume ftw

#

Well if your some senior guy with a lot of stuff a two pager makes sense

#

But most of our work as college students is bloatware bro 💀

#

True

#

But my next project is gonna be the bestware frfr

#

Gonna bang out a roblox game

#

That sounds dope enough to be the star of a resume

#

Yeah fairs; i only have room for one project and i want something to replace my other one

#

And i want to put a roblox game on it so bad

#

💀💀

#

yea fs

#

It feels better when u arent doing shit to try to get noticed by interviewers

#

So post offer all these projects are like actually enjoyable

#

i know a few peeps with that opinion trying to do like embedded systems or like drivers or whatever

#

That stuff was never for me but i see the appeal in really taking something from 0 to completion

#

I thought embedded made good money?

#

Ah

#

Yeah idk; seems like I’ll be doing frontend and I dont mind that but I do get the urge to just not make APIs and manage states on a webpage 24-7

#

But SWE has good horizontal mobility so im not stressin it while im still in college

#

Ill figure out what I like as I do it on the job

#

Linkedin

#

Im super hyped and I figured I’d give frontend a good try at a real workplace

#

Yea

#

Tyty ❤️

#

Yeah i noticed that happened to a lot of people

#

Even my recruiter got fired days after I got referred to the internal team

#

Literally nuts

#

They downsized the HR and recruiter team it seems

#

Every company is rn

#

Tbf we have things alright because if shit is still hitting the fan by the time we need to graduate we can just stay in school

#

No offer for full time —-> grad school

#

I heard thats what people did in 08 and around that time

#

Just stay in undergrad with like 6 credits per sem

#

Doing internships

#

Lololol

obsidian olive
#

is toast a good company

dense spear
#

The only issue is i think financial aid doesn’t apply if you take under 12 per sem because then you arent full yime

#

It might complicate it a but

#

And yeah toast is pretty big afaik lots of restaurants and storefronts use it for POS systems

dense spear
#

No I just know people who used Toast as their POS system

#

It sounds like cool tech

#

Lots of data and security i would imagine

#

I think it also manages like all the grubhub, doordash, ubereats orders ETC into one platform for the restaurant to see and accept

obsidian olive
#

i got medium but follow ups were hard

dense spear
#

I think this is it

obsidian olive
#

#

You think so?

i like vscode the best lolol

#

I need that ZOOMER UI

obsidian olive
#

i simp for them msft products

#

u have to have 85 extensions like me

dense spear
#

If your vscode doesnt throw MINIMUM 3-5 errors on boot you need more extensions

hot venture
#

idk why but I judge ppl who use jetbrains other than IntelliJ

obsidian olive
#

i use edge xbox vs code bing windows and onedrive

I remember asking my interviewers what they disliked about the company and they said basically outlook and teams if i remember correctly lololol

honestly this ones really tough, id say apple because im an apple fanboy so maybe whichever product interests you the most

#

apple is cool

so is netflix

i also heard the work you do at netflix is more impactful, so maybe that is another thing to consider, with apple it might be different but don't quote me on that

#

Do you know the Netflix team?

Yea

#

If you wanna go into ML apple def

#

Oh both ml

#

Yeah if you wanna get full time return apple, Netflix RO rate is p low from what I’ve heard

how do you even get into ML type of jobs, i never looked into it, publish papers and pursue a focus on ai/ml?

and it'll open many doors, maybe even apple later down the road too

Yeah that's why I have purposefully have never used it 😂

I am okay with using copilot to write boilerplate java code though

#

💀 who's deleting stuff lol

#

🤣 it's similar to how I did trash in HS physics, whenever I got stuck I would look at the back of the book for the answer which meant I didn't learn much

#

then stop using it

sharp sedge
#

snap has worse resume value than microsoft right? even tho microsoft is super easy to get compared to snap

cinder girder
#

WazowskiStare switch to only using copilot

#

tbh copilot is only good with boilerplate, it keeps generating wrong solutions which ironically helps me out

#

I do have more obscure homework though such as building a search engine

#

It doesn't have enough sample size to actually produce a proper solution so it's not helpful

bleak storm

I think snap is smaller so the chance you have bigger impact is higher-> resume val is higher

Is Msft not lol

Wtf is this stupid discussion?

#

Snap and msft are both good resume value

north portal
#

where are they?

#

every recruiter except like 1 has been shit for me

white urchin
#

Just choose based on return offer(international or not) and what interests you more

#

No one is gonna look at Snap and msft and be like, "this doesn't have enough resume value"

north portal
#

if i had to choose between one id take msft, but u cant go wrong with either

#

its negligible just choose whatever u like

hallow scroll
#

Agreed

white urchin
#

Think about what work you'll do at each place

#

Better indicator

#

I don't think msft has gained anything, just snap losing it

id choose msft just for the benefits and the portfolio of work that is available

white urchin

Comp for ft still is ages behind competition

or am i just misinformed

Since they were promoted and not external hire

But wlb and decent comp, msft best

my school is not even have career fair

#

at least u have that

#

🤡

gleaming mesa
#

you probably think that because they are so common at ur school

cedar pecan
#

need to lowkey cop an internship

#

my gpa is acc looking very bad

gleaming mesa
#

just get good at interviews

cedar pecan
#

Lowkey wana have a chill cs job like defense or bank and focus on business

#

life would be chill

quaint bolt
cedar pecan
#

if I can get that easy job that I only need to work like a couple of hours a week and spend more time on my busienss

gleaming mesa
#

cia has some too i think

#

that would be cool af

cedar pecan
#

cia is closed

gleaming mesa
#

oh damn

quaint bolt
#

If you’re gonna be bing chilling I’d rather be bing chilling at msft than defense etc

cedar pecan
#

im fine for defense

#

lowkey only problem is they dont pay much money

gleaming mesa
#

their benefits are really nice tho

cedar pecan
#

fr?

gleaming mesa
#

yeah

cedar pecan
#

I thought they only pay like 80k a year starting usally

gleaming mesa
#

oh yeah salary is not that high when compared to big tech fs

#

but 80k is still decent to support yourself

cedar pecan
#

true it always is a back up

#

defense is a last resort

gleaming mesa
#

yo ong

cedar pecan
#

I mean banks are mad easy work also

#

I know someone that says he barely works at this bank

#

and like it isnt much work

#

since their shit is so outdated

gleaming mesa
#

if you want you can work IT at finance firms, literally the easiest job in the world from what i've seen

cedar pecan
#

how so?

cedar pecan
#

thats why I need that

#

oh yeah im not suprised

gleaming mesa
#

i knew someone doing that at my last internship and he was making 85k and most of the time he was just chilling in the back

cedar pecan
#

yeah lowkey not a bad thing

#

dude not working and making 85k is cracked

#

cause I would spend my other time on my business

#

and could make even more money

gleaming mesa
#

yeah all you have to do is respond to tickets and most of the time it's basic shit like a keyboard not working

cedar pecan
#

better than acc having to work 40 hours a week or evene more

sinful locust
#

would cisco rescind intern offers?

cedar pecan
#

acc lowkey when I am close to graduating

#

I will acc apply to a shit ton of defense places as well

#

it prolly is mad easy to get into as well

clever grail

thorn quartz

I’m here between sets terminally online

keen minnow
#

my gpa is like 2.8 lol i still got big tech interviews

#

it doesnt rly matter

#

just have good projects and internships

cedar pecan
#

Yeah acc if I can pull off a 3.0 this semester I can get a 3.5 overall still

no longer believe it

youre going to end up like that billionaire oil tycoon in "there will be blood" who ends up murdering some guy in the bowling alley in his mansion because hes got no one to share it with

proud whale

bro what the fuck is 500 ng

#

or 600

hardy patrol

i hope youre not like sacrificing everything for the bag

proud whale

literally what

#

what is quant work even like

#

compared to big tech

thorn quartz

wth

Bro is god

the only goals youve told me of so far are entirely financial though

proud whale
#

@sinful locust could you respond to my question ab quant vs big tech if you have experience in both? genuinely wondering as someone who's at the point where i can get any big tech

thorn quartz
#

This why I got no maidens 💯

thorn quartz
hardy patrol
#

i watch what

thorn quartz
#

nvm

#

buff French dude who preaches that

#

And it’s true tbh

muted summit
#

what's quant work like from what you can say

hardy patrol
#

word

#

"from what you can say" i dont think you need security clearance to talk about it

muted summit
#

is the pay just significantly more bc of how much money these companies make

#

makes sense

thorn quartz
#

They print money

#

Printer

proud whale
#

what do you write code to do though

#

like at big tech i've worked on full stack apps and backend systems

#

how does the skill set differ

muted summit
#

i've worked on big data tooling

#

at a mid sized tech company

hardy patrol
#

im not tall so 230 lean would make me look like a muscley grape

bruh nobody can "get any big tech lol"

hallow scroll
near swallow
#

those pepole are too cracked to be here

#

ok i will accept then

#

lol

#

gpt told you to say that

proud whale
#

^ this is what i meant

#

like sure maybe it won't be a 100% hit rate

#

but i've been able to hear back from basically all places i wanted

#

so big tech is no longer much of a challenge to reach

near swallow
#

just do quant then tbh

proud whale
#

which is why i was wondering what quant is like in comparison

near swallow
#

more 🤑

proud whale
#

unless the skillset differs idk

#

i'm no giga math head

#

just a humble coder copium

near swallow
#

mmm you can get good answers here but the tldr seems to be that swe at quant is most viable if you're dead set

#

and the interview prep is harsh

#

it's just lc hards and OS

#

but i'm not the guy to ask

proud whale
#

how fun

#

oh really? what'd they ask then

near swallow
#

oh i meant most viable as opposed to straight up quant trader
assuming ur a run of the mill cs major

proud whale
#

n3 do u do quant internships or swe at quants

near swallow
#

like going into actual quant seems tough(er)

proud whale
#

but is the 500k ng for example swe? or are swe comps lower

#

dang

near swallow
#

also just seems risky to get that quant wlb

proud whale
#

all C++?

proud whale
#

man i wish some quant shops did remote

near swallow
#

bro for 500k you wont' care

#

i'm going into the office with my rollerblades for 500k

proud whale
#

so JS for example is like 400k recurring?

#

jus do OE at 2 big tech call it a day remotely LOL

near swallow
#

it depends on the tech company
Apple wants it, fighting it, losing the fight
Msft will win the fight to keep them in office
Google, who knows
Meta accepts remote readily
etc

proud whale
proud whale
#

not bc i wanna sit my ass at home

#

but bc i don't wanna leave my friends and fam for some dollars

near swallow
#

dude a high octane quant shop, you will WANT to be at an office

#

even at faang we struggle in full time

proud whale
#

so maybe i could preface by saying i wish LA had quant shops lol

near swallow
#

remote is harder than you think

earnest hatch
proud whale
#

i'm visiting jane street in the winter

near swallow
#

for that kind of TC just take the hit and move, my life advice
do your 2 years and then go remote

proud whale
#

maybe i'll come back a changed quant simp

#

flying out for the FOCUS program

#

free trip to NY

#

yeah

near swallow
proud whale
#

i think that hooks me up to get an interview for the following szn but dunno i haven't really explored quant at all

near swallow
#

but yeah i think if u take any role paying top dollar, you should accept the risk of 60hr work week

#

it's cope/naive not to accept that risk

#

it's a risk

proud whale
#

my best case is squeezing like 250 out of big tech

#

as of now

near swallow
#

the only viable case for a new grad big tech negotiation worth discussing now is Google i guess

#

everything else is set in stone now or barely budges

proud whale
#

what kinda stuff would y'all do to prep for quant interviews? is there even an OS related interview platform

hallow scroll
#

ostep

near swallow
#

and yes ostep

proud whale

tbh working remotely ng i also live at home

#

i wonder how much comp difference post tax + living expenses really comes out to

#

NY be hella fucking expensive

#

near swallow
#

Maybe a bit more

#

Not worth imo

proud whale
#

Kirb

#

why do you say the do ur 2 years n get out

#

what's special ab 2 years

near swallow
#

Oh cuz u want remote. Get that promo

#

Where u can stick around but be remote

#

Or get exp to find a remote role

#

I think remote is where we are all headed anyway

#

Im only 6mo into fulltime and i was so happy to do in person but most of my team is leaving or remote anyways

#

So the benefits are slowly going away

proud whale
#

ahh u mean do 2 years in person then go remote?

near swallow
#

Yeah yeah

#

To get credibility or a promo

#

That lets u keep the role but remote

#

Doable

proud whale
#

i feel like at some places you'd be able to hit the promo even just remote pretty soon

near swallow
#

Well it will vary but i think that makes sense, u feel me

It does, i still cant cook
