      No... I'm a CS grad and I just needed precalc, stats, and discrete math. I did algebra in highschool

      Nice real world problem there to measure a dev's competency in programming...

      people who are hiring will downrank anyone with a cs degree, they need to have everything "unlearned", they are in debt and want higher pay, they are higher maintenance people who have almost no autonomy, they think they are smarter but aren't and worst of all they have zero applicable skills. we only hire super spunky kids out of high school with zero skills, far easier to train them vs a stuck up debt ridden moron/npc.

        What you did in high school is not even comparable to undergraduate algebra. All of the classes in OPs pic come long after discrete math. In most universities very few students outside of math majors take abstract algebra, which is broadly covering groups, fields, and rings

        You claim you did algebra in high school but you replied to

          Most people, including mathematicians, could tell from the context that when someone says "algebra in high school", they are probably referring to elementary algebra, which is not the same field of study as abstract algebra, but is still a subset of algebra. Not sure if you're trying (incorrectly) to be pedantic or have genuinely forgotten what algebra means outside the context of modern algebra.

      I’m a google fellow and I’ve begun hiring people just based on IQ tests. I’ll start with fizzbuzz and work up until we arrive at a problem with a red black tree for a solution, but I will never say red black tree- and if the candidate does, they’re out the door. I need someone who’s going to, without prior knowledge, invent a red black tree on the spot. So far it’s been great, they need a little bit of training when it comes to actually knowing computers, but the raw power more than makes up for the lack.

          it's just not that good. i've been following this subject for some 20+ years and things haven't progressed as far as people have imagined. for such systems to function efficiently they're only as good as data it's fed. all AI algorithms in current year work on a model of garbage in -> garbage out. the model is only as good as the data it's using as training material. ever ran into a fricking moron that said they could read your future in tea leafs at the bottom of a cup and then proceed to make shit up? that's the world of AI. still takes facebook, google and the rest of the moronic fricking idiots of the world an immense amount of computing resources and many terabytes of data to do basic things. I think the time to worry about it will be in many decades time when quantum computing moves out of being completely experimental to a real world machine.

            pretty much. it's hard for me to imagine being born in the 2000s where tech had reached a point where the rapid advancements of technology were happening less, and things were evolving in increments, but data harvesting was accelerating at a rapid pace. they spent all their lives surrounded by invasive technology, having videos and photos taken of every fricking moment of their lives and posted online for the world to see without a care in the world... until now. if kids are reacting in this way then the future could be in safe hands after all. time will tell.

            Worst part is, I cannot stand people in the real world now either. Every conversation feels like a simulation of a conversation now.
            I don't think that is technology's fault, I think that's society's fault. The more packed like sardines we are, the less human we become. The fastness of communication now has merely exaggerated a problem that has existed for millennia.

            But then I see how fricking moronic nature is and I just get angry. You'd think at that stage I would be angry at God or the universe or something, but my interpretation of the universe makes that more akin to self hate and therefore pointless in itself.

            Btw, as an aside I am very worried about AI rampancy, it will definitely happen merely by logic.

            god = ever expanding universe, creating and destroying everything in its path for 13 something billion years. can't hate on it for doing what it does best. we just got to try and enjoy the ride being flung around the milky way at several hundred kilometers per second, while still taking 220+ million years to just do one lap of the galaxy. i think of things in that light and issues on earth really seem insignificant.

            >Btw, as an aside I am very worried about AI rampancy, it will definitely happen merely by logic.
            don't be. for now it's just unimpressive magic tricks and advanced algorithms. it will get to a point where governments around the world will either let it run rampant in the hands of shitty corporations or they get very worried and start restricting the use of the technology. it's difficult to say. i don't have high hopes for AI getting more advanced than data processing. after watching that fat frick google engineer on tv claiming their system was "sentient" i'm more convinced more than ever that most of this technology is pure garbage that apparently was convincing enough to fool someone that probably should have known better. instead, they decided to demonstrate just how fricking stupid they were by selling how his butthole to every media organization that wanted an interview. that screams to me: google publicity stunt.

            Yeah good luck.
            What's really going to happen is that facebook will become dumber and dumber and most social media sites are following suit.
            But this isn't just the only form of this behaviour, it's impacting the job supply now. Governments are saying they have job supply issues because the data is probably calling many people of "insufficient quality" for many fields of work.

            This has been a problem going on for decades, but it's getting extremely bad now thanks to computer algorithms. On top of this you have post-grad certification courses which further limit the amount of job supply and are basically a gauntlet for most people fresh out of college to lose more money on and find themselves out of work.
            It's a fricking shithouse system of admin installed just to shift money and appeal to dumb levels of quality control.
            Then you add this diversity shit on top of it and that just makes it worse.

            It's just a fricking gauntlet to pretend you're a person of a certain type now. It's beyond anything we've had in the past.
