#

i wish execs were more hoenst

honest locust
#

if you're a math major everything else is harder, but i found multi, lin alg, prob, and diff eq easier than discrete

#

for only cs req stuff

obtuse timber
#

discrete < calc < lin alg in terms of required courses

#

imo

dense tinsel
#

for some reason the first unit of multi and diff eq at my school is vectors and basic LA

safe minnow
#

Math is actually good here cuz we have an honors sequence gladge

#

Are you staying in cheese school or trying to transfer back to Cali

#

Yeah for most people it's for the price

#

Ah

#

Man's about to pay 50k a year to delay graudation

#

Wouldn't it be 1

#

🤔

#

No like if you transfer now it would be transferring after 1 year

#

But you said transferring after 2

#

It is?

#

Ahhh

#

For most schools it's march

honest locust
#

what's cheese school

safe minnow
#

Corn school and cheese school

#

I think the best reason to transfer is to save money

#

If you can't afford it

#

Better school is more iffy

#

I guess if the improvement is drastic

#

The uni now has to scramble to replace you

cerulean iron
#

exactly lmao

safe minnow
#

CS internships are so fucking good for paying off loans

#

I know my dealer from elementary school

#

It pays to go in state gladge

My motivation is to grind for new grad so I don’t need a masters

#

Got an internship so on the right path

hardy patrol
#

how often do dp and backtracking show up on interviews

quaint bolt
#

depends on the company but again it's very rng

#

all 4 of my citadel interviews had dp, my msft interview had dp, but goog didn't

#

the meme is that goog loves dp problems but i feel like they dont ask it as much anymore

honest locust
#

i heard google is asking hard graph dp again post-layoff

#

saw someone got bellman-ford

#

for intern interview

quaint bolt
#

who?

#

I know like 2 people who even interviewed for goog this summer pre-layoffs

#

I don't think they're even focussing on getting interviews done anymore post

#

goog recruiting a mess rn

honest locust
#

some loo kid in the goog server

safe minnow
quaint bolt
#

LOL

#

yeah that one

#

nah interns are still getting put on infra teams and stuff

#

but yeah i imagine ai is def a priority

#

who is almost everyone did i just miss people doing goog interviews this summer

#

or did they just conduct them late

#

i legit only know 2 people

supple spoke
#

Anyone here who got a callback for Cisco SWE-II Intern?

gentle latch
#

The goog chan special googChan

safe minnow
#

Yeah there were a lot of people here who interviewed

quaint bolt
#

idk about a bunch of others still, def way way less this year than previous years

#

maybe my view of "a lot" is diff from yalls KEKW_RECESSION_EDITION

safe minnow
#

That's a lot to me

honest locust
#

this server is quite self-selecting tbf

quaint bolt
#

nah it's based on numbers lol

quaint bolt

safe minnow

Yeah everyone processes offers

#

The fact that the # of offers processed is lower than last year is a giga doomer moment

quaint bolt

#

nah im not at palantir, and i haven't worked for palantir. however i simp for palantir cause no matter what they always respond to my applications

#

i gotta keep optimistic, NO DOOMER

safe minnow
#

💀

mystic depot
#

do u know whats up with that? i saw that in the article but i wasn't sure what that meant

#

is it something they have to do if they layoff X amount of people

#

okay i see

#

fr we gotta keep hope

#

i guess it makes sense tbh. if your laying off lots of people then that kinda breaks the rule about ensuring that no US citizen can fill the role

#

aka why are you sponsoring when u just fired 10k people

#

fr

#

i lowkey respect amazon tho by protecting the new grad roles from the enormous supply of engineers who got layed off by only letting new grads apply

#

i thought thats how it always was tho XD. didn't know new grads had to compete with people who have been in industry for years to get a new grad role 💀

#

i dont know either XD. People must be doing it tho lol. must be quite a few tbh if amazon is taking a stand against it lmfao

||yeah wtf this isnt optimal and accepted LOL and its a med too

class Solution:
    def checkInclusion(self, s1: str, s2: str) -> bool:
        left, right = 0, len(s1)
        map1 = Counter(s1)
        while right <= len(s2):
            window = Counter(s2[left:right])
            if map1 == window:
                return True
            right += 1
            left += 1
        return False```||
#

a version of it, but its not the optimal way to do sliding window

#

without spoiling idk how to explain KEKW_RECESSION_EDITION

#

but ||for this non optimal answer i wanted to test, i create a hashmap every single iteration and check if its equal to the current window ||

#

the optimal ||would just to add one character and delete the previous character into the map/window as you iterate||

#

then|| once you run into a valid window that contains all characters of the window you're checking against, return True, otherwise at the end return false since that case never reached||

#

hmm probably not

#

not sure honestly i just wanted to see how fast it'd run without the total optimal way of doing it

#

the answer i posted is not the optimal btw

#

this is a good question

A bear and a rabbit are shitting in the woods.

The bear says to the rabbit, “Excuse me, sir, but do you have the problem of shit sticking to your fur?”

The rabbit considers the question a moment and goes, “Why no, I don’t.”

So the bear picks up the rabbit and wipes his ass with it.

Hi,
I got an internship offer for this summer which I accepted. After that, I recently received a new offer with a little higher pay. While I do intend on going forward with my original internship, do you think its worth negotiating?

tough rain
#

If either or both are lowkey unstable companies, accept both. Renege as necessary

#

not necessarily true, it's always worth trying

#

unless they off the bat say the package they're giving you is non negotiable

#

Depends on the context

#

If you’re in a coop program a lot of times companies will have defined pay by coop term

#

But in general its worth asking if you have competing offers

#

If you’ve already accepted then you lose the leverage though

In general big tech don’t negotiate so if it’s not that then you can try

man's search for meaning by Victor Frankel

gentle latch
flat rune
#

kind of the same idea as your rec i think

#

i haven't read can't hurt me though

livid atlas
#

quoted by 90% of youtube video on self help I swear

gentle latch
#

Ooh ok cool, thanks

livid atlas
#

it talks about his expereince in the internment camp during WW2

livid atlas
#

yep

safe minnow
livid atlas
#

nope

#

it was not

#

I wouldn't spoil the book too much

#

but it talkes about meaning and how one find their meaning

#

Also Atomic habits is a good book to intro in

#

also Subtle art of not giving a fuck if you are looking for self imrpovement type

#

besides that Sapeiens is a great book on history

#

and the body keeps the score is an intersting read on human trauma

#

^ more recs

#

@gentle latch have you read Goggins new book?

#

the psychology of money is a good book on finanace and how to be welathy

gentle latch
livid atlas
#

deep work (at least the first 2 chapters) is a good book that talks about the importance of working uninterupted

gentle latch
#

Thanks for sharing these bro!

livid atlas
#

three body is a good book sereis on Scifi, great fiction

gentle latch
#

Yeah deep work is great

gentle latch

The author of deep work(cal newport) has a youtube channel

ipad kindle app is actually insane

livid atlas
#

Book is better than tablets imo

#

LOL

#

Physical books you can thumb through

#

There’s a beauty to it

#

True

#

But you lose the feeling of the books

safe minnow
#

I prefer tablet no matter what, more efficient to me

livid atlas

Also I just like the feeling of using a pencil and taking notes in the margin

not unless youre on an iphone sadge

#

one of my friends had 500 apps as soph and got an offer gladge

#

this is apparently this guy's resume though

#

kinda crazy that they have 2 SWE jobs listed on their resume but still struggled so much

safe minnow
#

I believe you were somewhat shielded from the shitness of this season if you go to a top school

granite fulcrum
#

wth is koitlin

safe minnow
#

We have it for cs124

i thought that was scala

#

backend seems kinda troll

#

anyone knows how many interns spotify hires

safe minnow
#

😈

granite fulcrum
#

theres so many open positions though

safe minnow
#

It might be like cruise

#

Shit has a billion positions open but doesn't hire many at all

#

Imagine if the average person here just got like 50 offers and mass reneged to bring down the average offer rate down

#

💀

#

We would need like

#

1000 cracked mfs

#

To do it

#

To actually impact the % of offers

#

By .1%

granite fulcrum
#

what does it take to get hired by cruise

static spindle
#

dont jinx it we're amazon interns monkaS

#

holy shit

safe minnow
#

You interested in accepting 44 more next season

#

I thought they did it like an airplane model where they predict a certain % of people will renege, and slightly overfill their class to balance it out

granite fulcrum
#

like what is this

#

You are experienced with React/JavaScript/CSS/HTML coding and testing

safe minnow
#

Ik Roblox does that

granite fulcrum
#

this actual backend?

#

is this legit??

safe minnow
#

Yeah Roblox overfilled b/c more people accepted offers than usual and they opened off season to manage their mega bloated class

#

Wdym

#

Uhhh

#

Yo this sounds hella profitable

#

Yeah if you got the offer this season you're less likely to have other offers available

#

And there aren't that many companies that beat 'blox

#

LOL

#

Actually we had a seminar early on cuz too many people left Roblox for quant

#

The return rate isn't too big of a prio for some people 💀

old pollen
#

what is it

safe minnow
#

Sounds like a good idea tbh

#

Hella profitable

granite fulcrum
#

u only say that cuz they pay well

safe minnow
granite fulcrum
#

i bet u you have no idea what they do

#

chick fil a swe is a t1 company cuz you have infinite sandwiches

#

you only get 100$ worth of robux

#

and a bunch of kids simping over ur gold username

safe minnow
#

I love watching those videos where the guy just starts screaming like a demon at random kids to scare them

#

You might have been confusing it with the RO

granite fulcrum
#

i saw pics of this on reddit and thot they were posting pictures of the moon

safe minnow
#

Return is the 260 one

#

Do you think it will plunge

granite fulcrum
#

stripe ipo wont be big

safe minnow
#

They're vastly different companies, not sure if it makes too much sense to compare them

muted summit
#

do recruiters know roblox is cracked af

safe minnow
granite fulcrum
#

bro

#

the roblox interview process was not difficult

#

the questions are literally tagged on leetcode

muted summit
safe minnow
#

Yeah their interviews are definitely one of the easier ones

muted summit
#

linkedin asks mostly tagged

granite fulcrum
#

but its also only 1 interview

muted summit
#

but their behavioral is supposedly really hard

granite fulcrum
#

no its not

#

all u gotta say is like

#

i had good memories playing roblox growing up

safe minnow
granite fulcrum
#

takes like

#

10000 years to get matched

muted summit
#

when i was talking to the linkedin recruiter she said they place a big emphasis on culture fit

safe minnow
#

💀

granite fulcrum
muted summit
#

theres this 40 page pdf i found on linkedin culture

#

while prepping

safe minnow
#

Do you think you can tell them that you'll ban them if they act up doggohehe

granite fulcrum
#

do yall even know what roblox does

#

like why they pay so much

#

for a minecraft block game

#

what about maplestory

safe minnow
#

I don't see why not

granite fulcrum
#

like

#

no one uses roblox

safe minnow
#

I heard that there was more complexity to this

granite fulcrum
#

no one knows what they do

muted summit
#

i would choose linkedin over roblox

safe minnow
#

It's been a while now since I had the discussion, but something about having a lot of reserve money and aggressively hiring that's taking up a lot of profits

#

Yeah

#

I guess I'm not too sure why they're continuing to aggressively hire, it seems like the company is growing really fast population wise

#

Yeah, they prob have some information we don't

#

What does ✍️ mean

#

Oh

#

You might get lucky with stock options one day or you might be down in stock portfolio and out of a job

#

I remember seeing blind posts about how they're paying to go to their jobs after they bought too much stock

granite fulcrum
#

If u can find me on blind I’ll give u 50 bucks

safe minnow
#

There has to be some loose correlation, maybe .3

#

I would be surprised if it was 0

#

Yeah high SAT def doesn't correlate to TC chasers, but if I had to guess if someone with high TC had a good SAT score or not, I would guess they would more often than not

gentle latch
#

lol the comments

safe minnow
#

Yeah it is

#

Sounds like hft level

#

Idk if big tech goes that high

#

What company promotes that fast? And isn't 400k usually top of the band for seniors too

gentle latch
safe minnow
#

I didn't know that was possible

gentle latch
#

like mr neetcode and kevin naughton jr

safe minnow
#

I thought it took way longer to get promoted

gentle latch
safe minnow
#

Don't you need to be on high impact projects

#

Wtf

gentle latch
safe minnow
#

Oh wait Microsoft levels are different right

#

Yeah

#

How many levels from entry to senior?

gentle latch
#

at goog/fb it's 2

safe minnow
#

59->61?

gentle latch
safe minnow
#

Wait ICT4 is senior?

#

Oh shit so starting at ICT3 is pretty nice then

livid atlas
#

I did the optiver OA it was just math lmao

safe minnow
#

Prob for the algorithms?

livid atlas
#

The first one was multiplications and quick math

#

Oh, so what’s the difference between quant path and swe quant?

safe minnow
#

Well, we’ll keep it short – you got fired from Macrohard. Your boss brought you in for a code review and was more than disappointed. Apparently, they wanted a C++ style vector: we didn’t get the memo. Now, you’ve decided to work for insert hot tech company here, and you got the job! However, there’s a catch - all newhires in insert hot tech company here apparently have to go through a newcomers test if they want to keep their jobs. The task? Write a shell. So, you’re going to drop a 🔥 🔥 shell that is so fancy that your boss will not just keep you in the company, they’ll immediately give you a pay raise as well.

WHYYY WHYYY WHYYY WHYYY

#

Apparently this is one of the hardest assignments in the course

#

Writing your own shell

#

No systems programming

Yeah
