From Python Web to Python ML? /u/PopApprehensive9968 CSCQ protests reddit

From Python Web to Python ML? /u/PopApprehensive9968 CSCQ protests reddit

I need help about making decision. Im bsc in computer science and also working with python web(Django) for about 2 years now.

I want to expand my knowledge, just to be competent in my next jobs and maybe to full switch to ML or just to have ability to use Web and ML together.

Is it worth it to start learning ML and how much time do i need to get to some ‘intermediate’ level.

Also one more question is how often do we see projects that are using ML and Web together?

Thanks in advance for your replies.

How is it for the SDETs these days? /u/osoatwork CSCQ protests reddit

How is it for the SDETs these days? /u/osoatwork CSCQ protests reddit

I was an SDET pre covid, and stupidly wanted to become a dev (didn’t want to be pigeonholed). I have a different career now (which I am honestly much better suited for), but I always wondered how things would have turned out if I had stayed on the QA side of things.

SDETs, how in demand do you find yourselves compared to the tradional devs?

Where to find low quality opportunities? Places no one wants to work I that I can get YOE from /u/ManifoldUsurpation CSCQ protests reddit

have only a 6 month contract from 2022 so I have 0 bargaining power. Right now I don’t have the luxury to pursue that 80k+ a year job. And I feel it’s very frustrating that it’s either. You climb through a mountain of bodies to get to that paycheck or you’re working at arby’s. There has to be some in between right. I’m really willing to get lowbald and even have my labor taken advantage of if I can get those years of experience. Because each month that passes by is another widening of my career gap. 20k USD a year isn’t so bad to me if it means I can list the experience on a resume.

I’m not talking about companies like revature that will try to trap you in a contract where you CANT leave. I’m more so mean companies that just have terrible reputations / extreme difficulties getting people to stay. Once i’ve had some experience from them that I can put on my resume.I can continue with my career journey.

I’m getting reorged to the IT Department. I want to hop but I hopped recently. /u/Jerome-T CSCQ protests reddit

I’m getting reorged to the IT Department. I want to hop but I hopped recently. /u/Jerome-T CSCQ protests reddit

I was a software engineer at $Megacorp and I left to be a software engineer at $Startup. I left after 2 years and now I’m at $Current.

$Current is definitely not a software company. The tech group is dominated by IT. It’s pretty frustrating at times and to be quite frank it’s getting on many people’s nerves.

The company is moving my team, infrastructure software, into the IT group. I’ll keep it short and just say that most of the people in IT can’t code, can’t read docs, can’t make an API call, can’t do anything without a written down process. I am a generalist/backend software engineer.

Most of my team is considering leaving. The IT director is… “non-technical” and butts heads with a lot of people.

I’ve been here 1 year. I was at previous start up 2 years. I was at Big Tech for 3 years. I want to hop to like Nvidia or apple or Microsoft but I’m worried about how my resume will look if I hop.

Am I shooting myself in the foot by going under IT? Should I just leave?

Compensation package heavily reduced /u/boyhood_kindaguy CSCQ protests reddit

Compensation package heavily reduced /u/boyhood_kindaguy CSCQ protests reddit

I was told I would receive a fixed and guaranteed bonus of at least 10% annually. Additionally, my boss said I should plan a trip to a foreign country to meet colleagues, attend a well-known conference, and have a very very generous educational budget. This has all been effectively rescinded in Q1 ’24, due to cost cutting.

I feel like I cannot trust them to keep their word any longer. The issue is that I have only been at this company for 1 year, but I am shopping around and have found several good opportunities. Recruiters are constantly reaching out to me.

Is it reasonable for me to leave in less than a year, given the circumstances?

I fucked up the Goldman Sachs coderpad round /u/TotalFox2 CSCQ protests reddit

I fucked up the Goldman Sachs coderpad round /u/TotalFox2 CSCQ protests reddit

Fucked up my coderpad interview

So I had applied for the post of frontend developer at Goldman Sachs Hyderabad, India.

I went through the initial HackerRank round without any issues, it was mostly easy leetcode DSA.

For the coderpad round, I was asked to create a tic-tac-toe game in react. And my dumb ass totally fucked it up. I was able to create the grid, but I totally fumbled in the logic of checking which player has won. The interview was really kind, he helped me with hints here and there but in the end the app still didn’t work fully as expected. I did think aloud a lot and explained what code I was writing during the interview though.

Towards the end, I asked the interviewer if he had any feedback for me. He told me the places where I could have written my code in a better way, but he didn’t sound dismissive at all. He also said that I’ll be having a total of 5 rounds or so.

My question is – what are my chances of progressing to the next round? I’m not keeping any hopes up because in the end, I wasn’t able to provide a full solution to the problem that was given, but it felt like somewhere I did explain my logic well, I just fumbled at the syntax level ..

We get posts here everyday asking how the market is going, let me share a resourse that ill be watching to determine when to “job hop”. This graph tracks the number of jobs posted on indeed one of the largest job posting sites. This can show us an overview of how “healthy” the market is at the moment.

We can see a clear trend with when the interest rates started going up, the index started dropping. We are in a bad period (worse than before COVID) so stay strong and lets wait.

What does your team call short programs for manipulating records in a database? /u/filmgeekvt CSCQ protests reddit

What does your team call short programs for manipulating records in a database? /u/filmgeekvt CSCQ protests reddit

I’m not sure what these types of programs are called outside of my company. Are they just… programs where you work? Does your team have a special name for them? I’m talking about the programs that don’t make your software do what it does, but the programs to fix errors in the database records, either from user error or bugs or just because the customer wants to change something in bulk that your software wasn’t designed to do.

My team refers to them as Quick Fixes, or Quickies, for short. I guess that’s because they are supposed to only take you an hour or so to write, but I take days to write some of them… probably because I’m still a novice, but also because I put probably way too much thought into these things so I don’t eff something up.
