I don't know, the following q is writing a testing to verify the correctness of the program
anyone know what the zoox OA is like?
Has shopify opened their summer apps yet?
mans are laughing at the solana internship but will still apply 
who solana

Solana is a public blockchain platform with smart contract functionality. As of January 2023, Solana has a block time of 400ms, gas fees of $0.00025 / 0.025 cents, and a Nakamoto Coefficient score of 32, one of the highest for a proof of stake blockchain.
essentially one of those blockchains that was supposedly going to "skyrocket" in terms of stock value, but then crashed as they all do
ok so are they gonna hire me or no

IM GOING TO FIND OYU
@gentle latch what are your thoughts on putting internships from upcoming summer on your resume for fall apps? Do you think it's worth doing?
Yeah do it bro
Ayo, what do I say though
It makes you look like a more competitive candidate
Incoming software engineer intern on the blank team
got it chief
Good luck 😼
U applying for fall? Hubspot just opened today I think
I passed it without Big N
Oh pog
@sinful locust sushi is banned now btw
oh what for
I feel like big N + top school should minimize the rng
And that’s about all we can do
@pseudo shoal
user complaints
@proud crag armada confirmed for commentary, make sure to watch live
not even the best swedish top player commentator
take this L
The hotel that facebook put me in was right next to google slu
I had a view of google from my hotel window
did u see pip try to make fun of the accent at summit
he has a mentla blocm
he cant evn do it anymore and kept saying jason
look up premid
It works for other websites
I might
he said some sus things and posted degen stuff
Charlotte. I was there last summer.
yo charlotte is dope
im from nc
good eats and chill city
I go to school like 20 mins north of Charlotte so it’s convenient
let’s gooo sushi is gone
hey how long does it usually take to hear back about a technical interview? i started applying around mid december (ik it’s late i’m stupid and exams fucked me) and i got one technical interview in like 7 days but nothing else has hit yet…
okay cool
and is there still time for me to find more jobs?
i’ve been finding the same shit on indeed
also if i don’t make it to the technical do they email me or just ghost
really? damn
big tech lmao
yeah
i’m applying from ontario as a 2nd year so not even thinking of big tech this year
shoot for the stars aim for nasa
procrastinating leetcoding day 6
going to move to a remote island with a chromebook and a hotspot like tom hanks in cast away so im forced to lc
for which company or in general?
Hopefully my Salesforce internship doesn't get rescinded 🤞
:clueless:
Same here
Get a previous internship
Any tech firms that have a non minuscule number of C++ teams/work that isn’t embedded or graphics? Bonus if there’s a team matching process you can influence, right now thinking of Roblox, Google, Microsoft, Nvidia, Bloomberg, and Meta, maybe Amazon? Feels like only Roblox and Bloomberg, maybe Google fits (Meta not hiring much lol)
Most of google and meta is C++ lol wym
Msft is C# and you don’t really have much say in the process
A loooot more than that it’s every fall 2022 intern too
Does recruiter read your cover letter?
And if they do then should I write something about the company?
anyone have experience using remoteinterview.io?
how the fuck do i get resume screened from an auto oa
hopefully they match me to a team 🤞🤞🤞
Meta not hiring much and most is PhP right? Google team matching seems like if you don’t have good c++ experience they won’t give you c++ team
if you want a c++ team at meta you'll prolly get one
if you don't have c++ experience there's still a p high chance you'll get a c++ team at goog too
Ya but again they’re not hiring 
Heard Google team matching is pretty bad recently? (As in not getting matches)
it was bad for off-season if you weren't a master's student or didn't go to loo
summer for the most part is fine if you pass interviews by early jan or december
Rip Google plz Interview me 
Msft does some cpp too
hows life mr wagons @quaint bolt
source
if its official wher is it
Yeah they’re all guaranteed or step
It doesn’t really start until late jan or early feb like multiple people said
damn rip I regret applying for google fall 
failed team match after passing interviews
at least I've acquired another reason to hate waterloo folk
sounds like skill issue 
interview results are valid for a year you should've been able to move to summer
just drop out of school
nah I graduated dec 2022
lol
I originally applied google fall 202 internships to see if I wanted to fit in another internship before graduating
I might just job hop to google at some point since a fuckton of people from the company I accepted FT at go there

job hopping is the move
i envy guaranteed team match folk tho
idk how they get it
huh how many years/months into your first job did you hop
ah
ill job hop when im good enough to
i'm planning on applying to some places for fun for 2024 hiring season
even tho I won't have that much job experience by then
true
i'll only be applying for entry/new grad roles in HFT firms tho
just to see if I can get or pass interviews
you get kicked out if you fail twice
some get kicked out after failing team match once
🤮
yeah
💀
hey folks, has anyone done 2nd round with netflix? not sure what to expect
imagine u want to host a heavily trafficked website or do smth rly resource intensive. doing it in one computer is hard bcz basically you could only use that one.
so you distribute it across multiple computers
and there are concepts involved
like sharding databases, load balancing, etc.
think
system design: the class
there doesnt seem to be an oa
thanks i was half joking
so i could study system design resources and learn about distributed systemss
yes
i think so
im trying tto study it rn but have little time
and want to git gud at codeforces
how si that going
finally had time to do contests this winter, did p terrible
out of practice

solved a lot of them on paper but couldn't program jt
why is c++ priority queue so difficult to work with 😔
the constructor 💀
and comparators are a pain
i need to make more variables global tbh
that'd fix a lot haha
c++ is easier for me
since idk anything else
tbh idk how to code 😭
i think i need to work on coding
i can solve on paper and identify trick for ABC very quickly
but can't program it
salad
i solved a 1400 in ten minutes, a 1600 in like 40, and got stuck on a 1500
this is the world we live in
u did a 2k? God damn
yeha leetcode made my data structures strong
but my actual thinking + math rly bad
gg
lmfao he puts footers in his code
i need to hit 2400 before i finish college no cap
if i hit 2400 id be rly happy with myself
2k is goog
or like 1000 level skill
yeah, good thing im above 1200 
1400 used to be the starting rating at cf lol
1800 and you should be good w interviews
it still is, but it's hidden until like five contests
I think that’s consistently solving D
div2D
I'm pretty good with D's
no CM is 1900
Most cf mfs I’ve asked said 1800 so

As long as the interview is in NA 
No name companies there have started asking qs like that too
so like, python?
python too hard
this is me
india also isn't good at cp
usually they only do it for jobs
and after job acauired they drop ot
but i think u can out ur rank on resume
You have to lol
Companies there won’t take you seriously otherwise
Not unless you’ve placed well in popular competitions
Or dome well in icpc
Hey guys, I am a newbie here
if an interviewer gives u a 3k problem, i doubt even they understand it lol
do we have an instruction or any steps to proceed with internship?
if ur 3k, companies might start just offering you a job
1800 is expert bruh
i think ill cyan soon
i consistently do between high green and blue performance
exceptions being when im rusty
cyan is specialist
specialist
i got expert level performances a few times when i grinded during the summer
i just need to keep ABCing div2
and get faster so i can sometimes D
don't make me depressed pls
I think cyan can be achieved by just speedrunning A and B alone
not rly much to study besides practicing and learning some techniques
it can, but i can consistently ABC
if i didnt suck at implementation
rn i just AB fs and sometimes C
but my speed is rly bad
i cant code fr tho
me too lol
which is big issue
for me
skipp too much impl and now terrible at it
im not good at it
but just do problems
until u cant solve em
start doing contests 
then do right below that level
smae
gonna grind this semester
im gonna try for two provmems a dah
aka 2 hours a day

ngl
i dont rly use chatgpt
I feel like using gpt would me lazy in thinking 😦
Well
Chatgpt gives blatantly wrong answers
So idk how much thinking you’d have to do when looking at it
Because you also have to consider if it’s right or wrong
Yea
I mean competitive programming >> LC
I was under impression that most quants asked med LC and low level stuff
farming is the future
when global warming kills the food supply chain my cricket farm will shoot up in value
yall does this sound like anything good?
I suppose my impression was wrong then
What does junior dev correspond to
ye this is in Canada
L4?

but is this even an internship?
Oh
oh ic
lots of companies can ask hard qs lol it's all rng
im still a noob so idk about alotta shit
he's a bot
I sent him this
check the email address
how?
amazon doesn't really have roles that say "junior developer" iirc it's all just sde or swe
Job summaryJr Software Dev Engineer: Job Description Are you passionate about innovation and developer experience at scale? Are you interested in working on an amazing team that is building new experiences from the ground up? Amazon is seeking excellent university students to work in an internship program located in Vancouver. Our Internship Pro...
job description btw
oh nvm then
Imagine someone emails you pretending to be an Amazon recruiter and then steals all your info
check the email of the person who sent you this
mfs go to college and learn advanced algorithms and low level design but don’t know how to see the sender’s email address smh
see if it looks weird
ik what their email is
i just erased it
in that picture
but idk how to verify their email
find the recruiter on linkedin and see if the profile exists
and plus im a sophomore
the profile doesnt
lmfao
Oh lol. I think you might also be able to tell based on the domain
just look at it and see if it's like "xyz@cryptoscam.com" lol
its amazon.com
The first red flag is that it's a recruiter reaching out, because you don't have a recruiter for Amazon 
Lmao
LOL they exist they just use asp instead
oh cuz i applied lmao
If it’s amazon.com, you’re probably safe
ye i googled and it seems that this program ismostly for subsidiary
lmao
idk if thats also the case in Canada tho
idek what the Vancouver HQ is working on
lol
Oh I just read that convo, you can have recruiters for other pipelines
wdym
im kinda confused
I don't wanna confuse you, just check if it's an @amazon.com email. If so then it's legit.
it is lol so ye
but ty
too broke for a pc 😭
dont wanna sell my kidney
does walmart allow pushing summer to fall?
krishna obsessed with everything
i saw jensen at santa clara uni it was funny
LOL
i got out of the car to walk around

strolling
They want you to live and breathe games
hmmm maybe I should stop lc contest

i use their calculators anyways
desmos is ok
but it doenst integrate for you
and all that good stuff
or solve roots of polynomials
ig desmos can help u with that actually
but my nspire is op

i havent rlly used my calculator since i took calc 3

They drug tested me

im very sure amazon doesnt test for weed
No they def do
lies
Are y’all talking ab fulfillment or swe
swe
Ohhh
they gotta pay for drug tests
prolly more costly
frugality 🙏
hello
I have a technical interview with Nvidia coming up next week, recruiter has given no information regarding what to expect
Anyone taken one with the AI Infra - Autonomous Vehicles team?

average bay area tech company
they drug test??
in cali
?
drugs keep me sane
ahhhh
fuck drug testing
even if amazon does drug test weed isnt rlly part of it i think
BTW can any Amazonian check which team this job id is associated with?
loving and accepting Jesus Christ as your savior 
whats a FTE?💀
samee
figma upcoming drug test

drugs 😍
yeah hungrytiger took the last spot

damn crazy how some of us will be new grad next season
im still processing the fact that im in college
Ive heard new grad is like 10x harder than internship
i hope c1 comes in clutch and all that
fr
not if u alr have stuff on ur resume
the hard part is getting the interview
i learned that this summer
I dont have the willpower to not look at the sol immediately
WHOLESOME
I thought amazon is stingy with merch
united fruit 🤨
😭
ive been told it varies among teams
to be fair theres a shit ton of teams
i need MERCH
SAME
who doesnt love free hoodies
u got me all jealy
thats drippy
thats nice
you get an unknown brand backpack
it looks like a crew neck
get shot for walking home from work in east palo alto wearing an amazon backapck
holly shieeet
i might go to santa clara over the summer to visit a friend there
I feel awkward wearing my branded one if Im not a part of the company anymore
😭
get shot for wearing an aws hoodie in santa clara 
whats that
citadel still hasnt shipped the merch
imma wear mine at school to flex 😂
maybe night clothing
"referral pls 🥺🥺🥺🥺"
their logo is so cool
regardless of the company
if i saw a waterbottle with citadel on it at a thrift store i would buy it
LMFAO
i think by now everyone knows amazon referrals do pretty much nothing tho
wait r u cit for next summer?
without knowing anything abt the company
No
oh
event merch
yeah,,, it's so sad 😭
after getting immediately rejected from 2 of their roles
i need to
wtfff which event

Im so behind on these things
putnam competiton
trust
same i didnt take it i just registered
dont u have to take automata?

yeah and Im scared of it
now draw a dfa
I only did well in algo bc I liked the teacher
I cant imagine myself as anything other than entry level
like having to review other ppl's PRs sounds so annoying

that doesnt sound too bad tho
at least u can blame the jr dev 
troo
At smaller companies you do that lol
Even as an intern
Wtf 
What’s going on here

I said Im interested for $400

and then he said am I available for a full time role if Im graduating in 2024
sounds sus
💀💀😭
why did he reach out then
what do I say
"yes gib money"
its a french company
in europe they do that

^^
chipotle has fallen off recently
however taco bell always be hitting
I havent had it in so long

"I can work full time during school"

simply design their backend system
their backend system prolly needs a good amt of work tho
altho theyve sped it up
wtf
cuz whenever bereal used to drop it would take a lot of time to upload
cant transition from faang 
yeah definitely
like maybe up the load speed during the time bereal drops
why would someone go on insta through the ipad 😭
ipad kids smh
Perhaps to mock meta
no wonder their hiring process is so fair

eu swes get paid 🥜 compared to here tho
imma go to europe sometime after i graduate
same

257000
Is the company good enough /s
when im content with my career in cs and ultimately depart from cscd and its related servers
oh word
surprised you didnt get it
YOU WILL NEVER LEAVE THIS SERVER NOR WILL YOU LEAVE THE OTHER ONE
NEEVVVEEERRR!!!!!!!!
if u leave, I'll ban you
i appreciate your attempt at manifesting it into existence
im a little invested in all of your stories since i see you guys from the start to the end of a brutal gauntlet of bullshit but theres nothing else to do here when i have an offer
gauntlet of existing
every time i feel lackluster with my progress i talk to the average cs major at school and suddenly im pretty satisfied
bruh lol
actually maybe not even that
bro said standard places
i dont go to waterloo so hitting f500 is seen as a major accomplishment
the disappointments go to akuna
The reeaally good mfs go to top trading firms
it's ok I guess
i think youre definition of most peeps is skewed 😭
if you go to a cs class and ask whos had an internship guarantee more then half wont raise their hand
actually yeah that's true lol
I think I do live in a bubble lol
Nah wecu jokes quite regularly
Being in certain bubbles in college can feel really interesting
Where everyone feels like they’re cracked our of there mind
*it feels like to you everyone else in the bubble is cracked
And you’re bad even though you’re actually cracked yourself
juda amazon slander 

Being in a bubble where everyone is cracked is good in my opinion
It pushes you to improve yourself
You become a better person because of it
That's why I'm constantly hanging with cracked mfs in this server
I DELETED IT
yeah
there's a famous saying that you're the average of the 5 peeps you hang out with the most
I think that's pretty true
I think it's part of it
No I mean friend wise
theyre better because theyre top students
Hmmm, I wonder how many high NW still work at quant, can’t be too many cuz they probably left/retired
yess good for you
league is a disease
Those people must be interesting as hell to hang around
hm. its correlated to enjoying the problems involved and thus may make the person more passionate abt math and have interesting experiences surrounding it.
me thinks
Are you sure you haven’t already
Why
Netflix 
I never truly understand what makes people rejected or accepted through the hm round

did you have to learn the dragon book? and the whole state machine stuff?
Nah
Most grad classes at my school are huge gpa boosters
Grad class doesn’t equal gpa nuke
Unless you don’t know the prereqs
We have all of our average gpas for our classes listed
With standard deviations and by professors
thats standard right
whats the dragon book
Not that I’m aware of
same here
Anyone here who hasn't started applying for internships yet? 😟
the must read book for compilers, although it's pretty obsolete
Compilers: Principles, Techniques, and Tools
or you could just google the dragon book, yeah
Mfw compilers is baked in as a required class in our curriculum
if you want to get a head start on the concepts, check out crafting interpreters
Anyone knows lucid and lucid motors are the same companies?
my schoool doesnt have syssyems i think
We have 2, one for CS, and another for CE
We have had incidents where the CE people don’t shower because they’ve been spending so much time working on the class
yeah this is a good standard curricula
Ah ok
Give it 20 years lol
They need to give the TAs a raise for having to put up with that
piazza 
is 400 level == grad class?
Yeah they’re petitioning going from 18->20 per hour rn iirc
Yeah this is a pretty standard system
User space development and debugging expertise under Linux environments
is this a fancy way of saying its not kernel development
like does user space development imply OS knowledge is expected or rather a lack of kernel development
No background check can uncover that
ChatGPT
no
w
also doing OS this semester
what type of SWE roles requires OS knowledge tho
Yeah that's how it is at my school
We probably have someone at every major school active in this discord
yeah actually lol
@sinful locust is MIT
@uneven crane is Princeton
Some guy that's active in the quant channel is harvard
yeah lol


I'm from neetcode.io university
ive never had a conversation with him
@hearty river is an AI developed by engineers at Lockheed
Wait have any of y’all met yahk irl
yahkuna used to be called jadenmeister
I read him talk about TikTok once
and Taco Bell
and Twitch
The TikTok rejection messed him

oh leetcode lol
Hows it feel to be uglier than an npc
Yahkuna actually has a long history of being most valuable user here
What have you contributed?
He did good, they just gave him the interview to give someone interview training

chill on the kuna bullying
@hearty river LeYahkuna
Good i am doing my performance review at my job
mr @near swallow , how is facebook? are you back at dexter?
NOOOOO
what office then?

dexter is goated
visit 8th floor of dexter to get a glimpse of what my life at facebook was like
all my mentors are really cute and smart btw
Yeah i’ve noticed people here are either smart or handsome
Oh I did this on algoexpert lol
Yeah for me it's one of those problems I gotta memorize
I don't think I could come up with it in an interview unless I got hints
or both 😈
Anyone know Pixar’s interview process or etc etc what their OA are like level wise
One of the cracked senior engineers on my team was also 6ft, had long majestic hair, and was a body builder
Thanks
Yeah that makes sense
Solving problems you did while prepping for eventual failed interview takes you to a dark place
Gas Station 
the real solution is to buy an electric car
I almost have enough for a tesla model 3
thanks to elon's twitter money 
just got another 4k in my bank account yesterday
how come?
so tesla will improve a lot in the next few years
ok
can't wait to see what happens 
I saw a Rivian the other day it looked sexy
Juda do u just put math major on ur resume
I want to drop my cs major to do only math
I put both
but ATS might clap me
how many ppl do lc's QOTD every day here in this server?
I do
I do
I'm on a 40 day streak right now
Well I do like 1-2 a day
But my goal is to get to 1k lc by march

This will be Juda by march https://leetcode.com/awice/
i doubt it but idk
this is me right now 
https://leetcode.com/Juda77/
im pretty confident i didnt get screwed by my major
should be fine for quant/big tech
i think the only place i got screwed at was dumb companies
how are you in the middle of a course rn?
ohh
lol I interned at Twitter
And I just finished an lc problem called "Design Twitter" 
fuuuck school starts in 3 days
ive been so bored im excited ngl
L
im grinding system design and C++
i just want an ft job and not worry abt academics anymore
ive hit diminishing returns for lc compared to other things
I just want to be able to solve lc hards in under 15 mins
i think my parallel processing class is in c++
I ain't missing a single day for 2023
the system design primer is a good resourec right
i’m missing every single day in 2023
for 2022 I was only 3 days away from getting the 300 days badge
I ain't missing it again
imma try to find a free version of system design primer
its on github
A senior engineer at facebook recommended to me grokking the sys design interview
oh shit
are u talking about the educative thing
W
An Ex-Facebook, Ex-Google engineer recommended Tech Interview Pro
yeah i was thinking of grokking for some reason.
I have a HRT sleep mask and just got a citadel Nike sweater. Now need jump street sweatpants and I have a nice fit
