I know this is the only thing I’ve put in chat for the last few days I promise this isn’t the only thing I think about LOL
Ye
Nah collisions r after swap
Not during
I got 2^n - 2 and messed up da modulo and was like ??? And then I realized
And was like questioning if total possibilities r actually 2^n LOL
Then found that
And was like oh.
It’s a cult
Test driven development
TDD literally sounds OP
u turn dev work into leetcode
(i have no idea what tdd entails besides tests before code)
decent double promote i see
W
i enjoy this dev mindset
imma start enforcing it
no cap
misspelled W
haha
YO has anyone done the discord take home assignment?
The OA or is this something different
Wtf
I have it
Dm your ssn to claim it
No I didn't apply

But seems really cool
The product
He is the chosen among the cheese
Only the strongest cheese will eat ice cream
Cheese
Texas rn 
Cali?
we cold down here fr 😈
Honestly I can't wait to go to Cali
Fuck midwest weather
I hate walking in below freezing weather to class
No
I've lived my whole life in the midwest
I feel like this is the place where you should go when you want to start a family
Not when you're young and want to do a lot of shit
My final interview got cancelled, they said they were pausing 'recruiting for this role'. What a load of BS.
Anyone ever do Walmart live coding interview know if question asked is similar to leetcode company tagged
trying to justify the $35
amz?
Ah no
Roblox
Along with @somber solstice
We going to give everyone free robux
fellow gters unite
same actually
and incredibly excited to go to california
i hear the bay is just suburban hell tho
i want to NYC intern so bad bro
but also i hear SF isn't too bad
ngl im really excited bcz ive never been somewhere big for an extended period of time
besides china
which the city is like twice the size of NYC 

SF overrated Fr
everyone says this but also im from the cornfields (not actually) so it don't matter
Yeah valid it’s def nice, good time to experiment with how living their would be like
starting the rust grind no cap
Did you see this post
"Other languages call these “snapshot” tests—see for example Rust’s expect-test, which seems to have been inspired by our library, or Javascript’s Jest."
sadge
Ocaml is cringe
A G recruiter reached out after for 4d in my case
I was in the conversion to ft pipeline
Maybe it's different for interns
Very low, returning interns first, then external candidates
Yes
Not really

google situation rn 😭
yeah that's true, but it's an amazing idea imo
Or like they barely interviewed anyone*
🙁
No misinformation Mr wagon 
The dream
I wanna have you on my team writing all my tests for me
It’s what I’ve been told by intern managers lol
There’s so much more emphasis on your essay
And resume
yeah i think they mainly just read the essay and resume to see if experience lines up
for non guaranteed
bad idea!
idk how to code!
Passing interviews == you’ve been vetted already lol
If you think about it logically it makes zero sense to go back to interview results after passing HC
On hosts platform to pick candidates, hosts see candidates interview feedback and score. So it impacts judgements
genius
Some hosts will weight interview feedback more than others
is foo:bar still a thing
Yeah I have a friend that showed me evidence
hows apple so far @sinful locust
did you meet some other interns too
oh nice
yeah meeting other interns makes the internships a lot more fun
wtf 💀
where in seattle is the office
hopefully the food is good af
if they have ppl going in consistently
the foods gotta be good right

i wanna get into apple one day
hopefully after zon or goog i get a chance

reverie lets connect
How did you know
ez

Oh
tanz i dont think i have you either
me and someone else right LOL
You and destroyer
we got some diff pfp's tho 😭
@low vale idt it matters but if I was planning on reneging amazon for google I would not put incoming at amazon on my linkedin 😭
I know but I always confuse you two
oh shit tanz you put zon on the linkedin
i kinda wanna do that too
but i cant have goog see it

🙁
my
is that having zon on linkedin will get me more reach outs in the future
i wanna put it too
🤯
Not now, after the internship
Oh
I mean all those are hella competitive no?
Were the ones you applied to before less competitive?
ive seen like 2 ppl in here with meta
but idk if they returned or what
not sure i just remember seeing meta
i think ricky has it right
Idk if discord does fall
that dude has like 50 other offers tho
I got the strong impression that they don't
i needa know how ricky grinded LC
does HRT ghost
Ricky goes to top uni and has 5 faang+ on his resume so
I am
Yea I think some interns got return offers recently
yeah wonder what meta's intern class is gonna be this year 
3 people
They're not gonna be able to put anything on down on their resume
@low vale wait how did that work, I withdrew the connection request 
How did it still go through
Ok that gif was a bit too cursed
when they see incoming they throw out. lol
i have this theory too
i never get passed for any more apps and I was doing well ebfore
now i cant get shit and I have incoming datadog and stripe
i think they see the same szn and toss it
lmfao still idk incoming seems like a curse for me too
Yeah I believe this too, putting incoming on my resume has made me hear back quicker but with less acceptance
they dont wanna see incoming
If it’s for the same season, I get that but why would it hurt if it was a different season?
I think clarifying when u end if you were to put an “incoming” would help a lot
they still have me interviewing for this position lol
tiktok
told them 100x i took stripe already
Anybody knows if apple actually has started recruiting for fall?
Ghost (1 week no response) is most likely equal to rejection
tell apple to interview me
thanks
ooo that would be nice but I have no more open seasons
lol
unless its for next spring 
my friend worked on it last year
My friend did it 2 yrs ago, they invited me for an interview for summer but they wouldn’t let me push to fall so I declined
rip
Pain
For people who did fall, what was something u saw in common or think helped them get fall? @sinful locust
Ahh I see, it’s just hard to know which is their fall posting since it’s all one general application
fy = fiscal year?
well its just a phone call stage. they said theyre gonna ask me "language specific questions related to my projects and experiences"
no
thank god
Bozos is yolked as fuck
does saying that you have competing offers after an interview increase the chances of getting an offer? or just speeds up the process
why are there so few new openings?!
anyone do instawork OA?
damn thats fair
also is it common for take homes to involve building a full-stack app?
i see. ive only built 1 full stack app before, and worked on parts in another project for work
gonna have to speed-run learning django, good thing i know react and nestjs
oh, instawork asks us for the take-home to create fullstack django app 
Yo if you’re looking for a 4 month with instawork don’t bother
its 8 month
but damn, whats wrong with instawork?
i am curious
oh i see
yeah the posting i applid to is 8 months
i feel the same, but also if i wanna be backend dev i should get more experience anyways
true
i meant specifically focusing on the API and database stuff
because its my weakest area, obviously since i have more experience w frontend
where u interviewing btw
slalom build (canada)
ah nice good luck!
thank u
Last time they fucked everyone over by specifying “4-8 months” on their posting
and it was 8 months i assume 😆
Then they said no to all ppl with offers that wanted to do 4 months lmao
sounds like a pain unless its a really basic one
im not sure how basic it is tbh LOL
Yepp 🤣
ah do you know if its post or pre resume screen?
im not sure how to tell. but im thinking post
yeh probs it would be pretty snake to send an OA like that pre screen 💀
It’s pretty basic CRUD dw
yea its CRUD app
yeh this is what I was thinking
time 2 watch tutorials
xd u got this good luck
can i legally put this on my resume as a project if i dont get the position? 

wait lmfao
i applied 6 hrs ago
maybe pre screen @dull helm
ayooo what’s up
I see you made it out 
yeah tough times 😭 glad you’re done tho
naw I been chilling for a while haha, I can dm
wow
way i do is i say the full notation ie n^2 for double for loops * logn binary search which simplifies down to n^2
Has anyone done a bloomberg final interview? Is "high level technical interview" resume stuff? Or systems design?

Probably varies depending on the role
Is there a group channel for Juniper
lmao

@honest spire exerting all his braincells to write 2sum
Figure 1. @hearty river writing his daily shitpost
no
fake pbj
bro im literally exerting all my brain cells at work just iterating over a collection in rust
These functions are written by the devil himself
go better + ratio + L
LC be Spoiling Anime now 😵
this fucked up tbh
but having nvidia on ur resume no matter what team is mega cool either way
Nvidia if the team’s cool if not amazon
ok gamers 
actually assuming none of these companies are places you wanna be ft at, the best thing to do would be to get an idea of where other people who work at the company you do want to go FT to came from
just go to li and filter by current company and previous company to have an idea
it’s not substantial by any means but gives you an idea of what’ll help you more even if it’s a lil
what is li?
oh
If you don’t particularly like any of the companies might as well pick one that’ll help you the most in the long run
ong im not even there yet 😭
anyone get an NVIDIA offer
i got the verbal last week and its taking them forever to get me the formal im tweakin
nah fr why the fuck does it take so long to approve an offer letter
Bruh
I spent the past 2 hours on a bug only to fix it by restarting the docker container………….
docker moment
i hate docker i encountered so many stupid issues that took me and my manager like a week to fix at my last internship
Im so mad rn
I literally have an interview tmrw too
And its 2am rn
I haven’t practiced behavioral questions yet
2am est
most of my issues were setup related
Ah ok
gl king
My first interview btw LOL
In this year
Tyty
How to git gud, i feel like im gonna get a system design question cuz they said no algorithmic
They’re gonna provide a “real world intro to their product” 😭😭
It’s literally just there to deploy your server or whatever in a container instead of a virtual machine
Lives on top of a hypervisor or smth
Length of last word
i mean like getting the docker service to spin up lol
it was a completely new service with no paved road so there were no docs to follow
any intl student reneged an internship and got away with it?
his dad is mike bloomberg btw
i assumed zon does not give a fuck
Zon sent me an email last year saying they would tell my uni
They nvr did 🤷♂️
I kno anotha person who also got an email from them sayin they woud tell their uni
What's the uni gonna do 
"We are sorry and we don't give a fuck"
use seanprashad
I can't nail down the exact time the regulars here start chatting, but I think it's 30 minutes from now
you are a regular
No
? Lol
Wow.
I need to start deleting chat logs again

I start feeling super sleepy around 9 😐

And I wake up at 4
PM
9-4 isn't bad
I wake up before most people
Nah it's not exactly op
I think 11-7 is best
🤯
starting at 12 in high school?
This sounds like it will deplete your strength long term
how the fuck
I did 6am-2pm a bunch last sem
@hearty river
Yea same I had swim right after school and hw after and wanted@to play Minecraft

I thought everyone started at 8am tbh
Ya
The fact that you can't use auto in c is giga bedge
Ohhhh
Word same
dude im so confused
you did 3 hrs of highschool or you started around that time
I’d kms just being in school for so long
BRUH
Did you not have class?
I skipped lectures lo

8 hrs is the only acceptable amoutn of sleep
I have to go today tho
mfs who sleep less or more are coping
Because I have OS
Real
Shivaram does and he has quizzes in class
i didnt do shit for linear algebra and i strongly regret that
linear algebra is fucking everywhere in my coursework
yal go to the same school or something
thats kinda sick ngl
wisco cs discord
Been wisco chat
What time ur office hours
I’ll slide rn
kk I’ll come and then go to OS lecture
ya
LLL
Cheese invasion
For some reason the chat starts popping at 11
I figure it's cuz people start waking up then

I'm surprised schools don't have clubs dedicated to gaming internships
This is genuinely good info unlike “make sure you have a one page resume”
There’s enough resources on campus for ppl that know 0
Step 2: realize you are not an English major and use your ai slave chatgpt to do it
I want to be enslaved by ken griffin :/
@brazen tangle where do you go again
My dad is sundar
I think it’s mostly what languages ur experienced with
It’s so surprising how big the difference between getting bloom expedited and not
Best one
yeah experience including languages

LOL
id be surprised if someone responds
kiki
Wagon man
thu
you should actually renege and not even ask for amz fall because then the stakes to get netflix ro will be even higher thus motivating you to do even better
me seeing the Thomas Shelby horse….
yoooooo
Databricks or nvidia
Both are good, I'd go with whichever team you're interested in more
Not yet
Is it confirmed Nuro allows pushing to fall?
I personally think Databricks is really cool
Nah this correlation doesn't really exist
is DRW codility hard?
you got db offer now?
how do you know my name
Are you transferring
What exactly is your background
Low level programming lowkey super interesting
One of thu, iit, mit
What?
Queen's University
something like 2 easies and 1 hard for me
the hard was dp
yeah i heard from someone else they got all greedy
i dont remember the questions but the first 2 were pretty straightforward
okay
Would you still be you then
Yeah I didn't bother to check for compiler errors before submitting
Mf cracked

guys
i need help
i need to choose between nyc and sunnyvale
NYC:
Pro: I know more irl friends in nyc like ishaan, potentially better social life, never lived in nyc, and transportation,
Con: Worse campus and food, not near the team irl, like 10 interns at nyc office, and shitter apartment
Sunnyvale:
Pro: Better campus and food, I work closer to the team, more interns irl
Con: I already live in cali, no transportation, and I know like zero ppl in cali
this is for linkedin 
NYC
y would u choose NYC over cali? is that a dumb question
ummm... i kinda need return offer
yep everything the same
manager wants me to be in sunnyvale but he's ok for nyc
from what i can tell
im focusing on getting return offer since i dont wanna recruit
me personally i would choose sunnyvale cus nyc stinks + get to know more interns
Oh wait if he wants you in sunnyvale
Then you probably will get a higher % chance of return offer
yes
plus cali has better food
WHAT IF MS CHIMI IN NYC 

i just didn't like the bay last time
maybe because i didn't know anyone
like my dms

?
why did i commit two hours to grinding lc every day for the next 4 months like im already halfway done with b75 in 4 days
what are you supposed to do after b75
is neetcode150 necessary
id do that too in your position you got zon
my ass being sent back to f500
cs majors in my school would literally cannabalize me for pretending like interning at fidelity is like being sent to alcatraz
when apps reopen in june ill apply asap
not at all dawg
u LC'd before blind75?
im only doing this now so i can live the rest of my life financially secure enough to spend time on hobbies and other people
no thankfully
no
oh. u mean ur just gone through half of it by spending 2 hrs every day
o
i feel like b75 is more like a review list
no wonder i struggle w every question

yea i should switch over to it
2 hours every day of mostly studying but half of it is just getting lost in thought thinking about where raccoons sleep during the day
the top 10% of this server say they only do b75 and they managed to land like netflix or apple so ill stick to just the list
:gigawokebedge:
the shadowy cabal that operates behind closed doors
i feel like its kinda a lie

bro mark had insane offers and hes sworn hes only done b75
pbj too iirc but he also does the dailies
I know quite a few people that this was true for
But that's not everyone
you earned the right to slack
tbh
i think wagon too only did b75
noodles got zon after only doing half the list but zon really is dumb luck half the time
We gotta upgrade from b75 for quant 
well all do
Nah those are the best
if they give me a q on either im just going to be honest and tell them i cant do it bc im both uninterested in studying this and also retarded
😭
I've finished all the non hard b75
jumpstart is cracked theres like a mental file in my head with a list of people that briefly mentioned the processes their in
didnt even know they had internships
this is true
🎲
sup Krishna Das snowflake emoji
im getting like an OA a day/every other day
Debatable
are u applying to summer roles pidge canada?
Yeah
tanz are u ready for february
u me and krishna das (snowflake emoji)
No you got this
all the g interns are gonna be from step 😭
Mickey Mouse work
lmao
i'm me
y do u keep saying the emoji
y do u not pidge (canada)
i knew it
put some respect on his name
os is goat cs class
Brb
i take it back
the only concurrency i know is 🍞
did qualcomm invite anyone else to a zoo
in san diego
I swore OS was a required class for every cs major
os defo a required class
Not for me 😎😎
It's an elective course here
that's wild
Wait is OS design the same thing as OS
most likely all operating system classes have slight deviations
hard to say without seeing a syllabus
If it's the only OS class at your uni then it's probably a standard OS class
Students will understand the main operating system functions in class and analyze their implementation through a series of machine problems that require modifications to operating system code. Students will also be exposed to the concepts of virtual machines and issues of distribution such distributed files systems and map-reduce operators for distributed computation. The course will conclude with a series of advanced topics.
Oh
I should really take OS then
seems like you would learn os concepts
looks like that class puts some cool twists on it
Ah
they thought distrubted computing in my os class
it was very mini/intro tho
nothing crazy
Anybody have advice on how to get better at writing algos fast and clean
I got a week
Clean is the hard part
Nah interviews
💀
look at other ppl's solution
compare it to your own solution
I get it as the end result
But I'm pretty messy in the middle
u know how to clean up the code after having a working solution?
I do, but my thought procceses are pretty chaotic and it's harder to explain to an interviewer that way
I have a clear idea of the structure of the final code before I start to code anything
Taking more time might help
anyone interview for super full stack?
Did anyone that interviewed with Unity (SWE Canada) get their last round interview cancelled just now ?
has anyone taken Meta's preferences @ work assessment?
if so, what is the best way to answer the questions and how important is it
every time i see him talk in zon chat i click out of the entire discord
💀
pretend like he not there
hopefully ill get to meet colin davis this summer
even tho we're diff locations
Who?
theres this super cringe freshman who got zon, and he always talks about how his age and how he got zon as a freshman and everything he says comes off as egotistical and cringe
not surprising
prob stuff like he just started learning how to code
and literally no one cares but he keeps talking
nah man its too far 😭
Let me dm you rq
Discord phone prayge
Yo , is anyone interviewing with Discord?
amazon/google
does codepath course free ?
codepath?!
u guys do grind75 by topic or by difficulty?
do it by mood
Topics
don’t worry about difficulty
learn patterns and when and how to use each data strucutrws
I did it by difficulty, because I learned the topics already and wanted to practice recognizing patterns
PLEASE GOOGLE
How much does apple pay its interns? levels.fyi doesn't have a consistent number.
Seems to be around the 40s range
That's your cat right
depends on education @sinful locust
sadly max that I seen for apple undergrad is 50
I know someone with 50 but he’s winter + summer rn
no free food
But hella good hohsing
Corp?
actually free food if u work overtime
yea
bruh my apartment was like 4K per month
u don’t get it at dexter
back in september they were being more conservative so it was capped at 46
If you include that in your pay how much does it become
90/hr?
pranked
Like flexing or talking about the process in general
I was at 43 while the other interns in the next room got max
I was pranked so hard
fuck apple
Frfr
Oh wait they were talking about possibly getting it? 
This sounds so stupid
i negotiated my first one from 39 to 42
hi @sinful locust I’m going to the bay
but
I better see ur sexy self
my current recruiter was being super annoying lmao
PEPEHANDS I WISH I COILD GO TO NUC
LMFAO what
they didnt care
Next szn 
Ayo we got a second mudkip
yea its ridiculous
experienced this same thing with a girl at a library announcing every offer she got this year
at the fucking library
Start cussing them out with google translate
no

I hate ppl who talk during the lecture
a chunk do go to amazon tho
Wdym by faang heavy
nyumat u go to nyu?
Yeah but lots is subjective, what % do you mean
yeah people were staring at them visibly disgusted and annoyed haha
yea
shameless
i don’t regret it really i really love my manager lmao
i didnt think they were real
i feel like im gonna avoid algos whatsoever in my undergrad bc 😭 these kids are way too much lmfao the systems kids are more fun
yes
im a quarter system kid so sorry if im late to everything lmfao
Being in quant would be interesting cuz you can't even flex to them at that point
lmao cute
☹️
W
Same 
looking for ur linkeidn post if u have one lmfao
i wanna hide

Best feeling is your bros lifting you up
It's ok we'll get stronger to lift you
Ye
Yep
It's only defined for x = 25, 7.5, and 10
Yo wtf
That's crazy high for a TA position
nah
Wait wha
Wait what is that
The only TA position that pays 20 in our school pays so high cuz the majority of the people in that class don't shower
That's actually pretty good
what a pmf is
Teaching algos is a good way to learn algos/practice interviews
Is this NYU specific
mine only pays 18.50 
It's almost always a guaranteed A unless your PI hates you (ur gonna get fired), so ez gpa boost
What do profs look for in students pursuing CS research**? I did chem for undergrad, it was p easy to get
Damn what if I am the grad student that knows nothing
skill issue, fix it
Execution by firing squad
Interning at deepmind sounds so cool to me
No
You don't need to change your career path
MLEs are just SWEs in disguise
Oh
True
MLE is a good move
Mfw 60% of the code I wrote is useless cuz I didn't know about realloc

Yeah it's just like C
Just with all the useful libraries stripped away
Anyone know what bloomberg final is like?
EM?
yep. Apparently it's a bunch of stuff like behavioral with recruiter+EM
Yeah they just ask you a bunch about projects and dive pretty deep into details
Pretty standard and not hard
I see that's good to hear. So there's nothing system designy/lc?
Just tell them you don't know sys design if they ask
Honestly it's crazy how big the diff in mindset from the start of college
I never thought I could make over 80k NG
if i dont make over 130k out of college im going to shoot myself in the foot
thats the most ridiculous thing ive ever heard
220k??? Amazon???
unfortunately ive heard of many peoples amazon offers getting rescinded
Mf you asked me this question 20 times already
I highkey did not expect amazon to b paying that well
HCOL is the main thing
so what happened, did u accept and get an offer rescinded ?
even knowing its in nyc
oh yea
my friend got his offer rescinded
oi
leetcode is my favorite thing to do in the world
i lvoe leetcode
trying to manifest passion for leetcode
@uneven crane
did u get google?
@low vale your classes have autograded big ass CS assignments right
idk why but i remember u saying u were doing netflix or somethign
Do they come with test cases
oh
zybooks is so bad
"simulate real world environment"
ah
My ass
bro that website goes down so often
we use gradescope and some open source autograder one of our profs has been wokring on for the past few years
shes lowkey the goat
be warned that before the deadline people get on and crash it
yes :)
@low vale do you use prairielearn at all
yeah just an fyi if ur gonna cram
Ok it's barely spread in NYU then
For 2 weeks
i used zybooks for discrete math
Your school or self learn
textbooks that have problems without access to solutions are bad bad bad
didn't hate the explanations though but some of the problems were also just badly written
school
Oh one of our profs wrote a textbook and we use that
No zybooks 
I liked Rosen textbook the most
Zybooks Discrete Math felt a bit too remedial as well
Ahh I didn't, the prof disabled that
@safe minnow prarielearn is pain
which school
im so mad quizlet is charging people now
I know it’s been spreading
And I feel great knowing other people will feel the same pain
Nah they’re licensing it out en masse
chonk
That’s why I asked tanz if he’s seen it yet
It’s taken root in a lot of schools
Just hadn’t spread that much
In those schools
Bunch of my friends did

I didn't get any email yet
I like it bc now all CS exams are computer based
So I can type

It scales incredibly well
That’s the main strength
I once broke PL once
My solution’s time complexity was so bad it caused massive issues to the backend
And I kept on trying to resubmit so the submission queue kept on growing
My TA looked into it and said they needed 6 GBs or something to load the page
That’s not a cat

By pfp and name
@proud crag ur brain’s hash mapping is broken
runtime quadratic
Space infinity
Amortized runtime of brain is O(1) cuz i stay thinking

Best version of yahk
Nameless devil
This is your default emote

trying to fix it 
I’ve had 4 Databricks recruiters look at my LinkedIn in the past 3 hours…is that bad?
Snowflake oa
They're looking for rzns to not hire u
white
Fr?
I'm 90% sure I just got recommended you on Linkedin
An ordered map based on a B-Tree.
what does it do
How long did you take to feel comfortable in rust?
Ai or whatever but their logo hella cute
lol logo do be cute doe
6mo in and still not
Read the book read the book read the book
The lang benefits from strong fundamentals if u seriously wanna learn. If u just wanna make projects then dive in
Was it worth it?
yes, the language has so many strong points, forces you to learn important things about memory etc, write concise code, get exposed to some FP principles as well, it's just great for learning i think
Rust is goated
and it will only grow
but it's a long term investment
so if you're already knee deep in cpp land just stay there
Rust > cpp
we had to make this for a ds homework
What would you respond to this
When cpp user calls another lang ugly there’s nothing left to say really
is there any advantage to learning rust and cpp?
i see some cool projects they're always written in rust, and I'm a cpp enjoyer
Yes
Always good to learn new things

My philosopher

I'm blocking some mfs if they clown for too long
Also are any of you guys being flooded with learn to code ads
