I kinda want a job where I'm not coupped up in a office..

same

I probably shouldn't have chosen computer science

@Jacob NO

The more dangerous, the more money.

@Jacob depends on your debt load

CS is the most lucrative thing ever

@Jacob I did the exact same thing

I wish I had done ANY CS in school

underwater welding is dangerous as all hell

or just be non white and get in on "diversity" @ThisIsChris

@Felix If you do go, maybe do community college first and get an AA. Its easy to transfer and way cheaper.

in current year...

I dropped out to go into IT/devops. Im in charge of my entire dept at a small company rn making more than I would have made after going into physics research in either public or private sector

"Learn to code." we need a Dune style ban on A.I. non negotiable.

idk I don't have a lot of confidence in money making me much happier

Without a college degree or experience (besides a training course) my company hires fresh new programmers at 71k

For every Tay you're going to get thirty Zuckerbergs

@Jacob Money won't make you happy, I can attest to this personally.

if you have a masters in computer science from literally anywhere and one internship, then my company offers 125k starting

Money just masks underlying problems.

and my company doesn't even pay as well as most others

Hook it up @ThisIsChris 😁

ya but you have to live in New York

> tfw i have an art school degree, not CS <:sad:366743316475281408>

@Jacob dude money might not make you happier but it makes happiness way way easier

money certainly makes life less stressful

@Asatru Artist - MD Making effective I.E art work and flyers > coding nerds, tbh

@Jacob If you're willing to commute an hour then you'll find plenty of white neighborhoods

We ALL need to focus on getting each other elected to offices.

wait...can't we all just throw around our white privilege and be happy??? 🤔

Or just hang out with us local IE guys

> if you're willing to commute an hour

@The Eternal Anglo It certainly gives me some purpose.

@Jacob I'm not but a lot of people here do for that reason. My brother commutes 2.5 hours

😬

2.5 hours...ouch.

I commuted 1.5 hours each way and it was life draining.

@ThisIsChris One way or both?!

@Wood-Ape - OK/MN one way

no thanks
