What are you doing except going to the gym, uni and looking at your offer figures?
I’m skiing rn
You could go outside w ur friends
I just to moved to London, just 1 friend there who is on holiday rn

From France
Small quant firm
Kinda shitty tho
Stop
does anyone have experience interviewing with adobe?
No
Solved "Palindrome Partitioning II"

Thanks But I used O(N ^2 ) space
Goals 😍
Did you make this
No
But also 18/hr
Which isn’t too far off it
Also no housing or transportation

you can prob flip burgers for more lmao
Nah this is the type of job that you add on to your FT to supplement your income
The pay isn’t great but no way you have to work a lot too
When you do the math for $$/hr it’s probably great
When autoreply dgaf
I haven’t checked email in over a week and turns out there’s like 80+ reject emails
They all woke up and chose now to be the time
merry christmas bro
they spent 7 years as a senior swe at g
probably was terminal
senior is terminal iirc
yea, not sure why they waited that long though

Does merge do off season?
Associate to the Associate Senior Software Engineer
Mfw Amazon went from 200k a year average to 170k due to stock
I wouldn’t put any eggs into stock vesting at zon due to attrition rate
yea
anybody done the zoox oa
pain.
Renege Amazon for zoox 
wheres the link lol
amazon is OP
what is zoox
a company that's "close" to self driving
what is an oa?
ok but on a serious note, how tf do i get an internship as a freshman uni student? im applying but getting ghosted
I'm not sure about salesforce in particular, but companies have been working extremely quickly this year. I believe most companies have concluded the majority of their hiring in November
refer me pls
you a hater
imma cry
dont we all
then why'd they send out the oa lmao
You may have been ghosted by salesforce if it's been more than 3 weeks since OA
it's still under 2 weeks
Yes, but I'm not sure what % of the 2023 cohort they've filled
wait they said i'm in the teams matching stage
i technically didn't get ghosted by oa
Ok you're still in the loop then
just curious are most ppl here undergrads?
Practically all of us are
but they also said there's no guarantee of teams match
Yes
k
what year are yall?
You can fail to team match in most recruiting processes
aw shiet got the snowflake OA, time to drill some DP problems
what r the chances of me getting a summer internship now
everyone pray for me
This question doesn't make sense
82.34445%
show your work
But you can still secure one, just depends on how you keep your mind open
Big N is probably a bit too late this year
kk thx
Those usually require a very specific set of skills iirc, and you're more likely to be scouted by recruiters in those cases
I believe
I’m in this aswell with you 🙂 gl


are any of u applying to merge even if ur not skilled in some of the things mentioned on the page
apply and let the recruiter decided if ur qualified or not
anime pfps dawg
im not worried about chatgpt taking all the jobs im worried of terminally leetcoding sailor moon pfps cornering the job market
leetcode is the hobby
does anyone have c1 discord
Ignore the trolls here, even if you took Salesforce OA in Dec. you still have a chance. They've continued recruiting into December and later in previous years too.
thx
hey
omg youre back from the dead
did he get banned? i can't find him on instagram
nvm the guy deleted all his stories and pics LOL
hes inactive on twitter tho
what the fuck its already 2023

is it a child lol
nah im just worried
why else would you be afraid to share smh
i wish
???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
cscd really brings out the worst in people during the late hours............
i think it's time to go to bed
perhaps its a man
i wouldnt judge
i think that would just be a normal sized pillow
now im imagining anya couch pillows lol
square
i would buy that
😆
Still waiting for my internship arc 
I applied ibm and sap both who denied me
my motivation is to not be homeless
then buy a house lol
Sure but only with my waifu in hand
Might unironically need an Arnold or Ronnie Coleman body pillow
🤓
U can’t stop me 🤪🤪🤪
thinkpad
idk if every department gets them tho
know an intern who had a mac
naw its a laptop

i <3 blind
Scotia sent me a codility test invite
has anyone done one of these ever?
i did a few practice questions and they seem like the usual leetcode questions
i just gotta figure out a way to learn SQL in 5 days
Easy. SQL has like 30 syntax max
i legit have done that for a few questions when i didn’t get anywhere myself. i’m currently debating if using gpt is reliable
i did sql with python in high school so like i remember some of it but i never had to do like multi line queries. any idea where i should go to cram enough for the test?
use SQLBolt.com
best SQL website
should i give up applying, already accepted an offer i think will be hard to beat
also semi-related, if i post about accepting an offer on linked in, would that create issues if i still apply other places and they see that ?
yeah that's what i thought. i guess posting on linked in is pretty much being done with applying
Post nothing waz
Apply and renege if you get a better offer
If you get interviews, it's free practice
Apartments.fyi
Levels.fyi but for apartments/houses
What is the purpose of the project. Being productionalized?
Instead of landlords and sellers putting advertisements, buyers and renters would post the offers they got
Just an idea tho
make a pip-style package manager with environments and builds tools for c++
sounds interesting
:3
sql bolt is really fucking good btw seriously, thanks
got ibm oa never did it
has anyone done the RH android intern on-site?
anyone hear from blackrock yet? i did the final about 6 weeks ago and got an email a couple weeks ago saying that they would update me "shortly"
this is for the sf location if that matters

contest today was tough
how good is 2270
idk if it was bcus it was my first
very
i could do it
does anyone know if databricks lets you remote?
oh yeah the problems were rlly nice
but i went down the wrong path for some of them and took too much time
A and C I think
Agreed
how u start at 1400? did u do usaco?
how high codeforces = solve all technical interviews with ease?
how high cf score to be pass all interviews
i failed a snowflake oa question
bow thr dfuck do u knapsack when order matters
ok i will dot tjat
no
its not 😭
its uhhh
gimme sec
im a math major but i still forget basic stuff like CRT which was needed for one of the problems today sadly
@n three
month ago
im still maldig
what really?
minimize total cost
is that what u mean?
huh?
chatgpt
they didjtb help its too hqrd for chatgpt
Let’s not send OA/interview qs 
its feom loke a nonth ago its gone u cant geti anymkroe i thonk
UChicago sucks
2nd best school in Illinois
What's the best
Its not UIUC
Northwestern?

Isn’t it top 5 for CS?
yeah but idk why its ranked that high
p easy to get into
and it was out of state so I didnt want to go
like its not a prestigious school
but ig cs program is good
uhh idk..
4/4 ppl i knew got in
or maybe 3/4
but 1 was like cs + stats
other was like ece
and me and my friend both got cs
plus lke 2 randos we dont know
2020 grads
before covid
it was harder then too i think tbh
college admissions got easier post covid
for stupider ppl atleast
cuz they stoped required test scores
friend with 1280 sat got into UT cuz he was post covid and just didnt submit a test score
💀
isnt uiuc ranked higher than ut? or maybe im tripping
ya for cs proabbly
but like its uiuc...
lul
i am not taking uiuc over ut
shrey got rejected ut... lol
so he went to uiuc
used to bulley him for going to our backups 💀
@granite fulcrum
huh interesting
i think he orginally wanted to do aero
I’m curious if this is gonna lead to better or worse students a few years from now
Worse def
tbh all schools are easy to get into , except like private schols cuz they are just rng
Testing?
Actually I was curious about what if colleges made their own tests
Maybe it would be too chaotic
But ik UK has some semblance of that
Just subtract away the amount you spent on the SATs
And shit
Plus aren’t schools super profitable
You can also get application fee waived for colleges too I thought
🤔
I’ve never went through the process so idk know the difficulty
I don’t think separate tests for each college would be scalable
Don't you not get admitted to the CS
And you have to take a CS class first
Or something
my school does this
i hate it
you have to keep a 3.75 gpa as a freshman to get guaranteed entry into your major
Madison just has hella weeder classes lol
Cs200 is annoying for no reason
Literally to be annoying
Fuck ETAM
honestly 🤮
300 cncr trivia then 400 so many ppl dropped at first project lmao
Yea
For me Atleast
I saw hella ppl drop
It wasn’t hard tbh
You are at the final coding interview for your dream job at a top tech company. The interviewer asks you to solve a difficult dynamic programming problem, and you feel confident in your ability to tackle it.
As you begin writing the code, you start to feel a sense of dread wash over you. The problem seems much harder than you anticipated, and you struggle to make progress. You can feel the sweat starting to bead on your forehead as you try to focus on the task at hand.
Despite your best efforts, you can't seem to get the code to work. The interviewer is looking on intently, and you can feel the pressure mounting. You start to panic, feeling like you're going to fail the interview and lose the opportunity of a lifetime.
As the minutes tick by, the problem seems to become even more daunting. You can feel your mind starting to fog over as you struggle to keep up. Suddenly, you feel a sharp pain in your head and everything goes black.
When you come to, you find yourself in a dark room with no windows or doors. You have no idea where you are or how you got here. You try to call out for help, but your voice is silenced by an unseen force.
As you sit in the darkness, you realize that you are trapped in this nightmare forever, doomed to solve the same impossible dynamic programming problem for eternity.
hmm
is it possible to do two internships at the same time
i’m thinking about doing dropbox the same time as uniswap
lol :))
idk why but i’m a simp of uniswap now
playing with fire 
and seems like they are not in direct competition
it seems doable?
bro return offer next year is so fucked
In person
but dropbox is remote lol
maybe with the wlb at dropbox i can juggle two?
yeah doesn't sound like a good idea
Terrible idea 
they wouldn’t budge at all shit
You run the risk of not performing at either and getting no return offers
Also working multiple jobs is done with all of them being remote
Not one being in person
true

does uniswap pay more?
Your call
I would choose Dropbox, since it's not crypto
When it's all said and done you're not gonna regret what you did on your deathbed
uniswap ghosted me after acing oa and then sent a survey asking how my interview went
not really, after tax + housing it’s lower than dropbox
yeah i am
and i’m also on visa
stupid me
can u do uniswap during the winter?
i think dropbox > uniswap if u care bout return
based on the recruiters email, probably not
The major issue with uniswap might be the lack of info
they’re not budging at all chimi 😦 im so sad
uniswap > dropbox for learning
You might not know return offer rate
and yolo return offer
And other important info
100% got return offer from last year
With a sample size of 4?
yeah lol
Ok
idk im always skeptical of crypto
Yeah same
end goal is quant right? will uniswap help at all with them?
i have no idea too
but i really want to pass cit and hrt resume screen
the rest i failed the interviews so probably just need more prep
yeah
idk why they’re selective
but yeah only 4 interns
If the end goal is quant I think dropbox is 100% the correct play
HRT/cit recruiters have a decent chance of not knowing uniswap
haven’t heard of anyone didn’t got it
But dropbox is a much more established company
dracos
yeah @stable spire
Imo the case where uniswap makes the most sense is if you're trying to go into startups
Are you doing a fall internship?
Yeah im looking to if possible
trying to move tiktok / or getting nvidia
but not sure yet
You could also go with a safer company in the fall. Then the riskier choice with Uniswap might be worth
If you care about a return offer
Can you all fill out this brief survey for research purposes?
https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSekI7LDH0NR923VOlOaHkLeUmGJLBNdbczpgHhCOc6kAA5Ing/viewform
hi does nvidia ask leetcode or it depends on the team
why are all canada internships so late (except like faang)
What???
I bumped into nvidia ceo today
Must be a sign
xd
Nah
Respect his privacy
Saw him at Santa Clara uni campus
Signature leather jacket w

What yr do you grad?
If you're a 2024 grad dropbox
Otherwise imo Uniswap maybe
2024 😦
i think its moreso the fact that they're one of the few seemingly successful crypto companies that takes interns and has not yet rescinded anyone
I’ve given up on internships.
real
I’m so tired. 😭
Don’t think any internships are even opening that don’t want me to move with no help to the middle of nowhere
Nvm

It’s BEN TWO YEARS FOR ME
Yeee
School
And applied since then
Lmao
You right
Not this year
Okay

idk if aight has ever given good advice here
It’s all luck
And sucking up to recruiters
I can’t talk to recruiters what do you even say
Actually new question
Did any of you apply to snowflake and actually pass the OA at all??
In any. To get a referral or etc to apply to the roles in their company lol
A decent amount of people have
take them out on a date first sheesh
hormone replacement therapy 🥵
a classic
i remember when i first saw people talking abt the free hrt ubereats zoom so i looked up "HRT"

sup
Would you say algoexpert's Tech interview prep bundle is worth for 1 year at 100 dollars? I wasn't interested in the past but that discount seems pretty nice not gonna lie. (AlgoExpert, SystemsExpert, FrontendExpert, MLExpert courses)
I've been using neetcode so far and I have no complaints. It has helped me achieve a lot in the past 3-4 months.
However I am thinking if algoexpert would be worth in general during this discount they have
I mean considering the fact that there are so many courses for me to explore in 365 days
Not necessarily practicing for an interview. Just as an on-going study material 😄
That's sick dude congrats! I've got my MSFT finals in a few weeks, hopefully I'll manage to get in ❤️
I can't disagree with that one as I have prepared using fully free resources. You have to admit though that looking all the time for different recourses can be quite tiring and discouraging. I believe that by having it all on one platform as well as track your progress, could be better. As far as the coding problems I am at a point in which I'm just practicing harder and harder questions so..
What if I wanted to also prepare for system design interviews? Or let's say have ready-to-go material for ML or FE
Wouldn't you say 100 dollars for all that is worth it?
Neetcode's material is definitely more than enough for your coding interview preparation
oh neetcode pro I completely forgot about it
You're right
Oh wait neetcode's pro is unlimited?
God damn
That's something I should definitely consider
as this guy will most likely post more and more useful content there
Thanks for your advices. I most certainly don't want to stop solving coding problems, since I can already see the value of them on my day-to-day development experience.
Even if I land that MSFT internship
I'll take a look at neetcode's pro
Didn't know about the private discord either
I appreciate your encouragement. Truth is that I've been pushing myself a lot the past 3-4 months. I'm currently working at a company as a swe, studying for uni and preparing myself for these interviews on my free time
It's been rough and I can't wait to take a break honestly
Thank you Juda, I wish you guys all the best to in 2023 and beyond
This server in particular has inspired me
Observing all these people working hard and achieving
Yeah! everyone should be proud of themselves here 🙂
Shit congrats 😄
That's literally the worst omfg
passing the interviews and not getting in because the world is fucked
people say 2022 is the hardest year to get in these companies
is that true? 😮
No way!
Jesus
Yeah but didn't many people get fired?
juda's at google right?
You beat the final boss lmao
I've read some of ur messages here haha
I mean if you did it once you can do it again right
even if u don't get team matched
100% and I wish you get in
I've also been trying my best
quality > quantity bro dw
That is so true but training/lifting every day with no rest can negatively affect u as well
Like I didn't know I would get noticed by msft and amazon in the first place
i literally applied 4fun
when I got noticed I instantly realized that I didn't have much time
with that being said @honest spire don't worry about doing lc every day for the rest of the year lol
Just do ur best and eventually u will succeed 😄
Sometimes we tend to forget how far we've come and how far ahead we're from the rest of students/swe's on our age
which companies are u aiming for and are you currently interviewing with any of them?
nice! What would u say is ur top 3 though
even better for you then, that means you have more opportunities feeling that you've made it 😄
I applied msft amazon google in sept
MSFT finals in a few weeks, oa and behavioral went freaking great
Amazon reached back after almost 2 months lmao I just completed their OA
Google ghosted me 
But i'm super proud considering it's the first time I"m doing all that and in such a short amount of time with all these things going on too
Let's see!
All these opportunities are for EU so yeah
I think we aren't as fucked as u guys are in the US/Canada
no clue tbh
I've been slacking on these. I'm at 85/150
its like right there so ion mind paying a quick trip to get pissed on by people camping for a spot since early morning
im coming in w the expectation of hating it tbh
What’s the app call?
A better way to prepare for coding interviews.
Tutu
yea not doing this is how people end up making whine posts on r/cscq about how lc is just memorizing and regurgitating specific problems
That’s why u do the contests, u often can’t find the solution online
2s to see that the question is 3 paragraphs long
I've realized I go to my school discord server Ito feel better about myself and this discord server to humble myself 😭
bro people from my school end up at lockheed martin 
@gentle latch what are your thoughts on school shootings. maybe decrease the competition for us all. 😂
🤨
W
where can u see that
Me too
Only 866 questions solved
not even 1k
where can I see the number of active day
wait gut where can I see the number of day active ?
but where exactly ?
oh I see
194
:sdage

Mr Juda, when are you free to grind project Euler on stream?
With me

Incoming twitch stars like @wheat void
Mr anon

No but I remember seeing this website in one of the videos of errichto
Happy new years
It's 1:45am
Contests I think
Are you going to zon?
No offer rescinded
Fr bro
Mr anon mad cringe
Are you a Canadian citizen mr aight?
If yes, you don't need Amazon to work ft there after graduation

Wsb haters maybe
bro
I take part in lc contest tonight
and 1 hour more before contest end

yeah
I don't know what should I do now
Touch grass
yeah u are righ
Are you trying to flex?
At least the ones in today's contest
I'm stuck in expert cf
Yes
Custom emojis is good enough of a reason
I'm still a cheapass though so I just save custom emojis and upload them as attachments 
are you going to give her your data 😏
Google chan will be mine
i took it fml 
happy new year boys
bro ngl i’m actully thinking about doing both 
worst case we can say we got fcked by a unicorn 🦄 
Hey you might as well accept both in case either rescinds

With Dropbox being remote, but Uniswap in person, how would that work? 
Not worth it imo
if one finds out, they both can fire u immediately
u lose out on a return offer and burning bridges at the same time
best to go to Dropbox imo
I will for 2023
same bet
Not worth it for me since WLB is wrecked
From all those FIRE posts I read, it's a nontrivial task to juggle multiple companies at the start, takes a bit of skill and experience before you can be comfortable
Yeah but for FIRE you want to get laid off for severance package I think
You want to get a RO as intern
So opposite objectives
Accepting both might be the play though regardless
Cuz of risk of rescinds
Yoo no worries man. Hope it'll be useful
I just remembered the entire thing is completely fucked because one is in person and the other is remote
It only works if both is remote
How tf are you gonna attend the remote meeting while in office 
Just make loud noises and mute yourself when someone comes in
Like you're dying of constipation
Yk I wonder if anyone has gotten multiple in person offers and basically told other people to impersonate them
Imagine a good friend doesn't have any offers for next summer and you give them one of yours

Just take a 10% cut as the middleman and break 5 NDAs
It's highkey illegal
Yeah exactly
There are at least a handful from my school that are like that
They get the internship experience and money, you get possibly a second return offer and some money
😄
Nah the more important thing is
You tell them you got plastic surgery
When they ask why you look nothing like you did in the summer
"I had the flu the entire summer"
I took Roblox
And rejected BBG
I feel it was a pretty straightforwards choice
damn I would've prob done opposite
but bb 👻
Funny enough, I think if I applied normally, I would have also been ghosted
But I accidentally applied FT
Yeah
Common chatgpt L
Yeah but that’s boring
The funnier thing is that it will be super confident
So if you try this on any non trivial math problem you will get a 0 on your assignment
am i blocked
Are you trying to fall asleep or stay awake
lol they ghosted me after final em round
I did too
Oh

No rejection email?
If you don’t get hit with the blues you aren’t truly a human
It's new years
2023
Made me realize that I graduated high school like 3 years ago and I'm still not a millionaire
sadge
Start a MLM
Or a Ponzi scheme
Wait actually just do some crypto scam shit

Where’s the first bet looking at
What multiplier did you get
1.5x?
Holy shit

Yeah 2.5x
Confluent vs red hat which one would you guys say is more prestigious
Looks better on resume?
Confluent
The company is remote first anyway
Oh then it’s a tossed up then
I guess now it depends on your preference
If you want to work low level and more technical wise like Linux then red hat
If you want to work 60% infra and 40% product or on Kafka then Confluent
I have no idea. But they didn’t give me a fall return offer
Only summer
I applied to it on the same acc it’s a diff job id
hey yall is there a channel / discussion for interns in nyc this summer?
damn fall already open
amazon needs to take a chill pill they always on go!
where?
on summer appli
hmm i wanna wait a bit before i apply. upgrade my resume and all.
oh
whats the diff of a coop and an internship
So google fall still opening in feb?
Do Amazon check if you’re actually in a co-op program

They didn’t open till June last year so
Perfect. That gives us 6 months to grind lc hards then
bruh i wish they had remote for this
idt amazon is doin remote
i cant i have classes
2 classes
yeah im moving over summer
for amazon
i cant do google fall im looking for probably part time internship
cuz i have 2 classes in the fall

Juster brings pureness to this server
This is the year that we start working at google
@hallow scroll
They do everything late, and if you get another offer the recruiters recommend you to take that instead of Google 
Probably because there’s less spots anyways so team matching is faster then summer
But yeah they’re also slow the entire process took me like 4 months since my recruiter ghosted me for 2 months to reject me
Yes 
Meh, Google overrated 
Sundar's making everyone work now
Microsoft is the new Google
@tepid jewel
Might as well go to citadel at this point
ong rob a bank. dont hurt anyone, hide the money... get like 10 years then come out and ur rich
Exactly
thats how to become a millionaire in 10 years
We could do it normally through stock investing but that’s hella boring
Robbing a bank is more fun
No ask chatgpt to help you
Np
Gl
chatgpt can make the plan

Work at McDonald’s
if I am graduating in Fall 2023, when should I begin the new grad preparation? What resources do you guys recommend?
Do u have an intern offer yet
Anyone have a roblox intern discord? I'm looking for roomates for spring 2023 internship
I do
Then just do the same thing for the next cycle
Grind LC and learn systems design
Makes sense yeah. Thank you!
thanks 👍
get a job...
now illegally the only thing that don't require skill or network would be to sell yo organs.
if you have some skills that help u in darkside do list them for better advice.
Bank robbery isn't viable because you need a couple of racks to buy equipment to rob a back.
Robbing bank solo also a ton of wrk. Ur welcome!
Also do your best to get a return offer from the internship so you have a fallback option/leverage
are we assuming Dr. Aight has a gun and get away car.
Or he has the connections to loan those items?
As i said we lack details.
and no you cannot use your regular car as a getaway car.
Guys genuine question what should choose an internship with a good project or higher profile mebers?
if u realy in nead fin aid?
need
its prob too late to apply
what like a good project vs ...?
Ar app project vs a company with a weight app
wait i dint check members for ar project
Fck em they gave me leetcode hard on my first OA
not mine
dont remember
i wiped memory
na i was doing lt mediums back then?
or just random questions lol
well it was my first oa i get a pass
fck u @sinful locust hope u dont get funds and drop out
😭
@pseudo shoal
Yeah f him
Chill
Should they be banned
I'm tired of it
I'm a noodley boi
Let’s book a gb session
Ai enough discord for today my non existent humor is getting the better of me.
Have u watched any robbery movies?
Are u making fun of me cause I’m a immigrant?
I’m offended
Yes I got shipped to us in a container but taht is none of your business
How u know
God I’m trolling kids on discord I need to get a life bye.
tanz are u in seattle
What is that
Was AWS known for bad WLB or am I getting it mixed up with something else
Most of Amazon is bad wlb
sup
Oh 50 ain't too bad
Not great obv
But not infamous bad
50 = good WLB at quant right
Jump and Jane
2Sig
Those are the good WLB companies right
Oh shit
2Sig sounding hella good
I had a 20 hour week at jpmc xd
Still?
Wait you're right

Wouldn't you end up at a lower position then if you started in big tech and moved up
As SWE or QT
Trying out quant as an intern seems like the move
The skills you learn prepping is pretty useful for everything right
The low level C stuff
Yeah
Do you actually do stuff like
pragma clang loop
Or just vectorization stuff
Oh
Any prefetching?
Ye
Yeah
You can get some automatic vectorization going by using pragma clang loop
Before your loop you write
#pragma clang loop //kwargs
//kwargs being stuff like vectorize(enable) or interleave(enable)
Are you taking computer architecture next sem
This is where I learned my stuff
Oh

Fairly standard stuff yea
Ah, we had labs on optimizing c code after learning that stuff
So it made sense for us
💀
Prof just was like
Fuck this shit
Only 1 question on this crap
wdym
Locality of reference I think it’s called or some shit
yeah
For quant probably might be handy
how do u learn fundamental cs concepts like that?
rip
always just "touch grass" comments
Comp arch/os
its ok my future quant man

hopefully i can absorb some info
os is gonna be thhe first class in all of college i attned 💀

I feel like in that world knowing that stuff helps, the difference of utilizing things like caching is immense tho so
i kind of want to learn os stuf for quant
even tho the 2 quants i interviewed this year asked lc questoins striaght off of leetcode.com 😭
is this the peak of application season for summer? as in will there be more postings this month or will the well dry out soon
ok one advice i got on the post was to read academic research papers?
like for ml/ai and stuff
is that really helpful or nah
aparently its good to humble you before college
some companies do open applications during the springing semester
bro why areu doing all that in hs 💀
swe is an easy ass career
i coded for the first time sophomore year of college
did leetcoe for a few months
and got like 10+ faang+ offers
starting so early is just overkill
even for quant
like if you actually enjoy it, thats fine
but dont do stuff hoping it will help career and colelge admissions lol
duh
im gonna start learning usaco shit this summer
grind it super hard
no one needs precollege program or internships
usaco gold and ill be happy
i didnt pass bronze last year
but this year is my year
comp math i suck too much at
didnt even make aime
Be ready for freshman year:
Be ready for Calc 1 and 2. It is harder than you think because the speed is twice what you’re used to.
Intro to programming: make first semester easy… do CS50 online before freshman year.
DSA: same, review DSA so it’s nothing is new during the class
Learn history and context: history of computing, information theory, history of semiconductor, and various CS classics books. I find this stuff helpful at understanding why things work the way they do… what problems our predecessors had to solve.
Try reading academic papers. Search ACM or IEEE if you don’t know where to start. This is more a grad school thing but reading academic writing is often difficult, humbling, and leads you to new concepts.
Look at the curriculum map of any large university CS program. Every school has a set curriculum, and most CS programs are very similar for the freshman year```
was told this
IEEE goofy
the only paper i read was about vgg-16 cnns
actually useful to learn them
but besides that nah
i already am learning calc 1 and 2 lol
redditors are so high istg
loll
omegalul
I’m imagining an intro class like
“okay guys make a program that prints the contents of this list”
“Okay professor but did you know that Alan Turing named his computer machines after his childhood gay crush?”
💀
college is extremely easy
^
people are just lazy because they're too busy getting drunk & high
I drink and find college easy, maybe for some drinking becomes a problem but for most you’re losing 1 night a week? Maybe 2? That leaves plenty of time to work

I went out every other day during my freshman year. Got my shit together after that
Haha yeah that could be a bit too much
it was fun though. I made up my gpa so no regrets
my major was econ and it was honestly quite a joke
