*gimme yo ips so i can find out*

Oh damn

I overslept today, i'm supposed to be in college lol

oof

It's okay, a day of leave never harmed anybody

probably

depends on the agenda I would imagine

hope you make the most of it though.

Do you have a major?

Yeah, computer science

I kinda wanted to go for civil, but i think ill have more use for computer science

If you are good at it for sure

I tried it out but could not keep up myself.

Aww...What happened, hun?

Moved way to fast for me, not as good at learning math and technical skills as I was in primary school.

Currently majoring in civic leadership now.

I still admire computer science, my best friend recently graduated and is now a data analyst.

That's great!

Personally, i've never had difficulty in maths

Maybe cos it's the difference with the schools we attended

We were taught about differentiation in 7th grade

well that certainly helps, America education greatly falling behind.

And calculus was mostly covered by 10th grade

It also helps that i love maths myself

It's the most creative part of STEM

I used to, but now I just struggle with it.

i never had difficulties in math but i hated it

I'd say with that knowledge computer science should definitely be pursued.

Hey, American education isn't too bad

Atleast the students aren't killing themselves

it really is

Having any programming knowledge these days should be pursued

The education here is really bad. Completely based on rote learning, memorisation

Coming out and not qualifying for jobs and a path to prison and drugs doesn't help though

that can be difficult

Comp Sci is kinda different. You can get a good job if you don't have a degree

American education isn't bad, the problem is that it is not good.

many employees care more of what you've done vs. what your degree is

though not to knock having a comp. sci degree

Degree can certainly help more in the what you learn vs the accolade itself

@RedShipley what would you say i do to increase my chances of getting a job?

a good github profile

maybe a website that they can browse

Cool. I'll do that!

If you can do a lot currently, building a portfolio always helps.

If you have a bunch of projects on that, you'll be steps ahead of your fellow grads that don't

One of the more important things you learn with schooling is the algorithms really.

also this website: https://www.careercup.com/

has a lot of the questions that interviewers ask

sometimes even straight from it

people are often too busy to be creative

My uncle tells me that clean, organized, and optimized code are often sought after, it is not always best to just make it work, but needs to be ready to be adapted.

very true

i often dont finish until the deadline because product owners change their mind constantly

Also notes are absolutely necessary, because it will help others that you work with, or someone in the future who will be doing updates, or even yourself because you will forget why you even did something. Ether way employers will look for this.

Good point.

I imagine that a lot of programs rely on each other as well, especially when considering databases, so I would guess that being organized would help in that sense as well.

Good documentation for the future

I imagine there are moments when a programmer remembers there was something super effective that they used before but cant quite remember what it was.

It happens. After thousands of lines of codes, things get forgotten

Something my friend would often use.

Also good place to practice, run into problems that if you find an answer for will help you down the line.

AHAHAHAHAHA

Jesus fucking christ this is hilarious

the self awareness scale bottomed out

Sadiq khan, the guy who literally banned posters with thin women so it doesn't offend fat people

`and then it kept going down`

Sadiq khan, the guy who told scotland yard to arrest people for tweets

Please tell me how that makes sense

watching farmlands

o my i misjudged lauren

Same. Wasn't expecting much when I saw it. Turns out it's pretty goooood

And not gonna lie every news like that makes me a little racist... how can that be happening like that

Oh, right, white people suffering, who cares

I really liked Farmlands. I wish she looked into more cases though

I am legitimately confused with that tweet, what are they trying to say? Nothing make sense anymore?!!

It's weird man

I'm really trying to understand, but i really don't

Shh...Let the Left eat themselves. #walkaway. 😃

It’s like they have their own language now.

I watched the interview sargon did about post modernism

Great vid.

That tweet sounds like what the professor is describing

nothing has to make sense anymore, words can mean anything

Orwellian.

Truth isn't real, it's all subjective

it's weird

But insanely brilliant

I need to look into post modernism more

I used to think it was just a prejorative that people like jbp and dave rubin used

LMFAO

Assault revolvers man

What is an *assult Revolver?*

It has the shoulder things that go up.
