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
@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
that's not normal by the way
his choice
I have ~1hr one way to school, but it is easy prairie roads, and I only go to class half the week, and there's always more podcasts!
Is this the conversation they’re having on “The Root”?
@Deleted User The root? The black anti-white click bait site?
@Wood-Ape - OK/MN also to clarify for my brother's commute, it's all train so he just sits on his computer, cell phone, or sleeps
Ya
If I knew anything about political campaigns, I would have each of you in office ASAP.
Whoa 2.5 hour commute sucks balls
@ThisIsChris That japanese style life
The finest men we have are right here.
Mine is like 45 minutes and that's plenty for me
