some good banter in there; also plenty of good people pointing out unique interactions and explaining the rules
there's a serious cultural drought out there; I'm looking forward to whatever blooming technology or network makes something new like the Old Good Internet
They ended that years ago buddy. Also im black, marked that i was white on SAT and still pulled high 1400 scores on it. Sounds like a skill issue to me
how did it go from one of the most unpopular majors to the most popular...also i don't think majoring in =/= graduating in. so many of my courses senior-junior year went from 23 to 12 to 5
"They" constantly advertised it and pushed it to flood the market with cheap labor and lower the operating cost. "They" also are the ones responsible for handing out h1 visas like candy. Hence the job market being in favor of corporations 99% of the time.

I was in college back when CS was unpopular as hell (like said, it was for turbovirgins) and you started with ISO C++ freshman and were already doing assembly by sophomore year.
I could barely tolerate the smell of my classrooms, imagine the odor of having 30 basement dwellers shoved into one room with no pretext of any women being around
I’m now being told by some people in physics I chat with that there are students entering grad school with CS minors, intending to get a PhD in computational physics, that don’t even know what a fricking compiler is because all they ever do is fricking Python the first two years of the curriculum
based on the interns we get at work, yeah, standards are wayyyyyy down
I wouldn't care, except every company ends up with stacks of bolted together webshit garbage because the average dev doesn't know how to write actual code anymore
>getting intimidated by foids
i'd rather be surrounded by attractive people that provide eye candy and give me job security by making me the only one with actual skills, than being surrounded by smelly sperglords that always represent an obstacle in corporate settings, b***h about everything and make work a more miserable experience
>you started with ISO C++ freshman and were already doing assembly by sophomore year
They're still doing this, I graduated in 2017 and this is how it was for me
>I’m now being told by some people in physics I chat with that there are students entering grad school with CS minors, intending to get a PhD in computational physics, that don’t even know what a fricking compiler is because all they ever do is fricking Python the first two years of the curriculum
You don't need to know that if you're just getting a little bit of CS for a completely different degree, you said they're going for computational physics and not a PhD in CS (which is a waste of time). In my SWE job it's more important to know how version control works than what a compiler is, and version control wasn't taught at my uni for example.
learning version control and git is a fricking joke compared to learning how a compiler works. Why teach handfuls of inane tools that can be picked up in a month when the entire point of CS is to think about computers as a mathematical entity. Most CS degrees aren't that anymore anyways they are just devshitters first project class. The fact that many CS grads don't know what an abstract syntax tree is or why one is generated is far more worrisome than CS grads who intend on being devshitters don't know the ins and outs of git when graduating (most will anyways because it's an incredibly simple tool and everyone uses it).
If you can't think like a designer have a nice day, degrees are not for technical training for skilled labor.
Money. Try majoring in math, nobody except people who are legitimately passionate about mathematics are majoring in it. If tomorrow knowing point set topology commanded $300K starting pajeets and nigs would be lined at the door to learn Tychonoffs Theorem and fundamental groups.
most people go to college for a high paying comfortable career
cs is marketed as the pathway for achieving that without the hassles of law, medicine, or administration
incentives and propaganda have led to that being the perspective now
nothing wrong with that, CS is still teaching you some useful cognitive tools in most domains of intellectual life and everyone needs a computer for their job even if they might decide to specialize in architecture
must be nice, work on computers with your chink friends, surrounded by starbux and snacks, in two hours it's time for the 3some with two hot girls, future is planned out set, only worries are...can't think of one.
i'm in my second semester as a csci student. i hope to get my associates by next spring. should i be doing something else? keep in mind im a 34 year old neet who just started to get his life back on track in some way
>i hope to get my associates by next spring.
Then you should finish your associates at least. I would also suggest that you try to make your own projects outside of school work. It will give you some experience and something to talk about for interviews. It doesn't need to be fancy, just make something that works and is presentable.
I’m 38 and got my CS degree in 2022. I’ve had one interview since then. Still no programming job. I live with my parents and deliver pizzas and solder for a living. It’s over.
Welp frick I'm a 30yo neet myself with no degree. Guess everyone was lying when they said it doesn't matter just get the degree even when you're older. I did the learn2code meme but my only projects are tools to help me coom better and easier, so I have nothing for a resume.
What do we even do bro? And the other 34yo anon. IT certs?
tbh a CS degree was always worthless, if you didn't go the linux>coding route when you were 14 you're no match for autists and at the same time any romanian NEET that did exactly that and has been fricking computers for decades can do what you do way better and for less and it's these people that get contracts to be the workhorses, in-house engineers were always irrelevant company PR/managers so it's not a problem if they get replaced by women
switch to any other STEM career (electrical engineering with a focus on electronics has a lot of future still)
Only caveat to this is if you're a based English native speaker then you can always get a job if you're non-moronic. Good job getting the Romanian to do any more than be an autistic code drone, most such people can't speak for shit.
I want to change field. I don't like that the stuff I do is so inflated and popular.
Yes, I'm a narcissist (diagnosed) and I need to feel special.
But what could I do instead?
I'm great at programming, of course, but it's not like I'm great at everything. Also changing course at 36 is not easy, but must be done at this point because I need to feel special.
Please help
What if I go into CS/IT/Cyber Sec but through becoming an airforce zogbot so I have guaranteed job security for 6 years + more likely to be hired since military background?
you talking about the laptops sitting on the table?

i used to run this card against the black alex jones playing westcoast mtg.
I won't go until they replace the people making the food with machines, because the people they have making it now are so incompetent it's shit.
>not a single white person in the photo
SATs are discriminating against white people. Subjecting an american to US the highschool curriculum is an actual human rights violation.
They ended that years ago buddy. Also im black, marked that i was white on SAT and still pulled high 1400 scores on it. Sounds like a skill issue to me
Why would you mark yourself as white?
The real question you should be asking is why would an anonymous person on the internet lie? Doubt he's even a Black person
And all those Asians will get passed over for some H1-B Pajeet that'll do the job for 1/3rd the pa y.
and they claim to be diverse. I dont think so, sweaty.

Companies should be required to cancel all H1Bs before laying off native workers.
idk. The neets were right. Putting any effort into socializing is a waste because they just rug you.
Same happened around the dotcom boom. Most are in it for the jobs and money. Most won't really make it.
Same with wfh jobs. Used to be looked down upon but now most cattles are fighting head over heels for one.
People realized it pays a lot while not being difficult enough to justify the salary

Are you moronic? That had next to nothing to do with modern programming.
