Blessed pic. Good this will be a good thread, I can feel it.

Wow every contractor on the team is getting laid off next quarter.

>>105979287
>So what are we even supposed to do to "earn" a living?
You were supposed to have bought rural land and built a ted shack on it while you had the income so you could farm or start some other small business until the tech worker market improved.

Anyone heard of STL Staffing / STL ITSM?

>>105979532
Prepare to work with jeets, they're going to replace them with H1Bs. Can you feel it?
You need to learn how to wrangle jeets.

I've gained additional jeet fatigue I didn't even know I still had the capacity for

Almost everyone I work with is a massive retard and have the attetion span of a toddler.

>>105979561
Who are you kidding, I'm a fucking Zoomer in who's about to graduate in Germany.
>You were supposed to have bought rural
There is no land to buy here, even if you have the moneys
>built a ted shack
There is no shed without permits
>while you had the income
See above. No considerable income.
>so you could farm
There is no farming without permits
>start some other small business
Already doing so
>until the tech worker market improved
Do you think that that's going to happen ever again?

>>105979820
What happened?

>>105979457 (OP)
>ywnb this happy
god fucking dammit

I work for bigpharma as a sysops intern and I have about $500 for training and a few months to fuck around and findout before I start my masters.

I like loonix and foss stuff because it's stupid easy with all the documentation. I am currently studying for AWS SAA but we don't use AWS here. Only Azure, winblowz and some random GCP stuff

What training/certs to go for?

>>105979829
Team member decided to refactor my minimal API into a dozen different files for no reason. Now any change requires updating several layers of needless abstraction. This is thanks to the classic Hindu modus operandi of fake politeness to cover up railroading whatever change you want through, as I had been refusing it for weeks until he just did it and merged it anyway.

>>105979943
It's so bizarre how they are smart enough to understand development concepts generally but simultaneously so dumb that they don't understand overhead created from blindly adhering to single responsibility principle. I don't understand it.

>>105979964

Some people are able to learn very well but have low intuition so they can't inductively figure things out

thanks for the laughs anon, the last posts in the previous thread were funny af

>>105979262

>>105979943
Is there no one you could take this up to? If he's literally hurting the company, you should tell your superiors and explain the situation to them.
Just don't be racist in front of them, try to come off as understanding (concern trolling).

>>105979964
It is literally in their best interest. It creates overhead that is annoying to everyone (who's competent) but not really hard to solve by anyone. Like rust, it is a perfect situation for retards that need to look busy doing shit and things that will look like hard technical stuff in code reviews and HR performance reviews.

They're playing the long game. And here comes the thing into play I've been telling everyone for years: Talk to your superiors about it, make them understand the situation. See something, say something; see the jeet, name the jeet.

>>105980021
>They're playing the long game.
Bro there's no fucking way this is some calculated plan. They're stupid and incompetent in 99.9% of cases, come on.

>team leads gets buttmad when I bring the fact that organzation is absolute shit

>>105980027

idk anon might be on to something. They addictively love tediousness for tediousness' sake and hate the concept of efficiency.

>>105979457 (OP)
Tech workers reminds me of sex workers, the euphemism for whores.

>>105980051
well, we are sellouts and work for the highest bidder, so you might be correct.

>>105980039
I think it's more likely that the vast majority of them come from a Java background and Java really lends itself to this dogmatic, must follow SOLID at all costs trap that a ton of retarded beginners fall into. Then they work in companies populated by other midwit jeets and nobody corrects their retardation and it just compounds over time.

>>105980027
The downfall of the west thus far was the mantra
>ItS nOt mAliCe whEn YoU cAN aTtrIBuTe sTUpIditY

Yes, they can plan that far ahead, they just hide their cunning behind a mask of incompetence to completely sideline everyone.
Higher caste jeets aren't stupid, they just act stupid to fool you. You don't replace almost all FAGMAN CEOs with jeets by being actually stupid. You replace them with a retard-gambit by making everyone lower their guards until it is too late. It's the age old "suck upwards, shit downwards".

>>105980039
I've seen it happen a few times. They even did it to me when I was 17 and working my first job as an intern at a startup.

>>105980075

I'm a straight C#/Java dev and like most useful conventions, but there's something more to it. They straight up have no sense or intuition for inefficiency. They can't personally reason and be like "this is useless" they're just dogmatic. So I guess it's either genetic autism or something deliberately tedious.

>>105980081
>You don't replace almost all FAGMAN CEOs with jeets by being actually stupid.
They are the most populated country on earth and they have the lethal combination of 3 things:
>seeing tech work as a very desirable career field
>cost/standard of living being low enough that they are a prime target for offshoring
>considered to be """native""" english speakers
It's a numbers game. Out of 1.5 billion jeets, there will be some hyper-capable outliers and that's who reaches the CEO positions like Pichai et al for the most part. The average jeet working remotely for a western company has and always will be a barely functioning retard.
>>105980106
At Uni I spoke to jeets that were doing doctorates in CS, physics etc so they obviously were not stupid. However once the convo veered out of their niche field it was like talking to someone with a 90iq. It's bizarre beyond belief. I have no idea how it's possible or why it's such a common phenomena with them specifically.

I have been rejecting women and trannies candidates for a year.

>>105980132
holy fucking based. assume you're not making it so obvious that you're at any risk. keep up the good work.

>>105980125

If we're going by the 5 factor model I'd say Indians are low openness, high extraversion

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big_Five_personality_traits

>>105980125
>The average jeet working remotely for a western company has and always will be a barely functioning retard.
I'm aware, it wouldn't be a problem if we only got people like Pitchai. But they go out of their way to take over all key positions of companies and stop hiring anyone but indians. And then they go ahead and start a fucking caste system within those companies, going as far as delegating lower castes to low level languages and gatekeeping high level languages for higher castes.
All the while funneling money back to india where they enrich their families by factors beyond a thousand.

It's similar to what china did in the 70's by opening the country for trade, just that the jeets are coming to the west this time.

I've ended emails to some jeet team members with "Please do the sneedful" a few times and nobody said anything

>>105980144
I don't. First there are like 10-15 coding challenges to choose and I always go with the one they are probably less familiar with according to their resume. Before the coding challenge there are some techinical questions and I just try to make them nervous. I also know what my manager and boss want in terms of "culture" so I lay them trap questions just in case they actually know how to code.
Finally I just leave the "choice" to my manager.

>>105980132
>for a year
so you haven't been able to find candidates that are not women or trannies? that's sad

So Pajeet1 is forced to write firmware in assembler because that's low, but Pajeet2 gets to do Python scripts? That's so retarded I wish it was real.

it do be like that fr fr

>>105980215
Every time I'm forced to go to the office I show up in flip flops and do next to nothing while also making sure no one can focus and get anything done either.

Yes

You don't need to wish, it actually is real. Microsoft india is currently involved in such a scandal.

I'm so sick of people not trying to figure it out themselves first before asking for help. Useless dogs.

they probably ask the lower caste pajeets to write the modules in C while the higher caste pajeets write shitty python scripts that call the code that does the actual job
I've never worked with pajeets, but judging by the above, I imagine high caste pajeets must be lazy and entitled af

>>105980256
God made jeets as a joke

>>105980293
>But that's only for brown people.
they don't get that either

>>105980314
>they probably ask the lower caste pajeets to write the modules in C while the higher caste pajeets write shitty python scripts that call the code that does the actual job
Spot on. Which is funny because lower castes a fucking retarded and cannot build the modules in C without screwing everything up. This right here is why jeet software fucking sucks. The shit on top looks fancy-shmancy because jeets at top program the UI in some JS-framework while the backend is falling apart, example: Windows 11.
>I imagine high caste pajeets must be lazy and entitled af
I had the misfortune to work with both. Don't be fooled, they're both lazier than any other group of humans. The higher castes are just hypocritical about it.
>>105980323
Are you sure?

>>105980361
>Are you sure?
yeah
the vast majority of them get genetically filtered out and can't finish college, those that do get paid basically prevailing wage to be a token dei hire (the one benefit being they basically can't get fired)
the jeets and shit are indentured slaves and work for pennies (I think h1b javascript devs make like $60k or something lol)
Chinks are the only ones that do well but they're not really brown

>>105980256
Lmao fucking Microjeet strikes again

>>105980256
I hope that's real because that would make it real funny.

I took a second remote job because I slack off most of the day and this one is really easy, but I had to be creative while applying.
I never explicitly said I was an indian but I have implied it in every possible way.
Long story short, I've been larping as an indian for 3 months.

>>105980484

You know it isn't necessarily the jeetness that makes you attractive it's more the "willing to work for 1/4 the pay" thing.

To me rn the ideal stack is two low-effort remote SWE gigs around the $90-110k range where you can tinker with either as needed and never get forced to be "the guy"

>>105980528
>You know it isn't necessarily the jeetness that makes you attractive it's more the "willing to work for 1/4 the pay" thing.
I was writing a shitpost before about how I disguised myself as an Indian and asked for far less pay to score more jobs. I got bored and quit halfway but it did make me think how you could probably wrack up a heap of comfy jobs if you were to accept far less pay. The trick is make sure these are all WFH, that you take on multiple at a time and that each company gets what they pay for.

>>105980528
How does one find jobs like that? I'd love to work remote from another country. Earning $90 to 110k would be a dream because SWE jobs are 60k max here. I'd even work two jobs full time because I don't need to leave my home often.

What program scam is that? The ones that offer STEM MBAs/OPT to extend their stay here? Because almost every Uni has done this now

>>105980598
Chill, I haven't graduated yet, I'm still green as a lawn. Asking for the future because 60k is a slap in the face here.

define working? probably not tbqh they want industry experience. i have a friend has an actual doctorate in cs and is extremely competent and he's applied to hundreds of remote jobs and gotten like 2 interviews and 0 offers. keep in mind that a LOT of those remote job postings are permanent postings in the sense that they have 0 interest in actually hiring anyone and just keep it as marketing on linkedin and whatnot. it's real rough for those jobs. a lot of the people you see working 2-3 jobs are either former FAANGgots or have like 10 years experience with decent companies. no harm in trying though just wouldnt get my hopes up

Survived another layoff round despite straight up telling management I'm only here for the money. I don't even know anymore man, there is no way these companies are real. Even if the money they pay me is. Wish my back wasn't fukt by scoliosis so I could just go work on a ranch or an oil field or something.

the product requires a bunch of providers to be up so it can render the relationship of the node against them. each change i made on a service is taxed by 5 mins on the smaller side. i am absolutely rammed up the ass by the tech debt. things are unlikely to improve until next year

Does Kubernetes even make any sense in a modern cloud environment that can autoscale server instances easily? I get it for locally hosted servers where this is a hard job to manage as it kind of simulates what a cloud environment already is, but for my current organization it just seems like another needless layer of complexity. Nobody ever knows wtf is going on with the machines. I used AWS + EC2 at my last place and it was trivially easy to understand, work with, monitor.

>>105980782

It's some very delicate chemistry. You need a team lead that is self motivated, ambitious, diplomatic, and not overly disagreeable (probably the most important aspect). He will serve as the primary "engine" of the team that keeps a high standard. You need a manager/PM that never micromanages and merely facilitates work and serves as a buffer between the engineering and product side so that cancer never seeps into the team.

I think these are the make or break components of any given team, the lead/manager dynamic. They need to know their shit and be active enough but also not be overly disagreeable or micromanaging.

>>105980850
Interesting, wanting to do as little work as humanly possible and not giving a shit about the "rich westerners" that you're working with and fucking over is definitely a trait a lot of people herehave. The companies I've worked for have been decent enough luckily.

>>105980868
Mate, no offense, but your people need to get their asses out their rears. Even romanians and bulgarians are more pleasant to work with.

>>105980876
I don't take offense cause I don't give a shit about how anyone other than me is and I'm competent and don't shovel shit on other peoples plates. But in any case it's never going to change, the traits I mentioned have become core over the past 20-30 years for a variety of reasons. Btw Serbs despite British people so if you/your company is British that might be part of the reason why they never give a fuck.

>>105981441
fair. I was thinking more about the case where someone ends up with convoluted AI slop that "works" to solve a problem, not knowing that that problem is described in the first page of the section of the framework's docs called "The Basics".

nobody wants to read (or even skim) the docs on things. So much understanding can be gained by taking your hands off the keyboard and reading, page by page, in order, for 30 minutes or so.

of course this only applies to reasonably popular frameworks and such that have well-written documentation

>The only things that remain require formal qualifications
By "formal qualifications" you mean "shit that an AI can't pump out in a couple of prompts" then there's plenty of opportunities there. Technical people are famous for their lack of social skills, so it's no surprise they suck at marketing. If you are a technical person, chances are you have the opportunity to do some really cool shit with your skills. Figure out how to use your skills to generate publicity for yourself (e.g. entertaining normies by doing something interesting on YouTube) and advertise your product that way. A litmus test to determine if your product is worth building is gauging how much money it makes for your customers relative to what you're charging. If it makes fuck all money, then it's worth fuck all of your time. If you're building some AI Powered™ trash for a customer you've invented out of your own imagination, pack it in.

Where are the easy high paid jobs outside of tech? My MBA friends seem to be rolling in cash and always free during weekdays but they deny any attempts from me to ask what their actual job title is. Meanwhile my cousin's mom who doesn't even have a college degree is somehow making 200K a year (cousin actually showed me her paystub when I told him he was bullshitting) but all they tell me is that "it's just a regular deskjob"
Seriously, what are normal people doing to win so much? I can't even get an helpdesk job for 12 bucks an hour.

Is SCRUM common in software engineering and similar fields? I'm asking because its heavily shoved down my throat in college. Can't do anything without having to write down what you'll be doing beforehand and having a certain time frame to do everything. Its stupid because as someone who doesn't have years of experience I don't know how long something could last or what is plausible in actually developing within my given timeframe.

You want to talk about grim. Bootcampers for IT who basically sat at braindump schools for 4-8 weeks and barely know shit then complain about not getting a job. I know about 3 people from WGU who became programmers and actually know what full stack implementation means in the workplace. But bootcampers for CCNA are unhireable, they pass the test but have no basic fundamentals of IT.

Indians doing everything in DMs instead of threads or an email and sending messages one line at a time is why I'm now awake at 2 in the morning (my phone is set to vibrate)

How often do you take vacation days, anons? I'm a contractor so day I don't work, day I get zero revenue. My current mindset is "grind until you run out of contracts, then take it as a long holiday while you interview and get new ones", but I don't know if that's sustainable.

I realized this years ago but never bothered to do anything about it and keep on living in my own bubble. I think what i need to adress the most is my awful social and communication skills and the lack of basic relationship with other people IN PERSON.

I can wish for getting certs after certs, cranking out leetcode after leetcode, but my body is literally falling apart from arthritis and tendonitis because of decade of chronic stress that i caused myself. Damage from cortisol is very real and it will remove your willingness to just exercise for at least 30 minutes a day. There There are definitely better ways to cope like simply call out a bro and hangout with the guy, but instead i run away to PMO, youtube, and video games every time. I keep thinking my favorite internet animators and music producers are better than my fellow brownoids who can only either think about work or the government. But these fellow brownoids are all i have and they're the ones who can vouch for me and bring me work to do, and thus giving me access to money.

Now I'm getting older. Still no jobs. No skills. My cognitive shot to dust from ChatGPT coddling me every time I vent to it. My wrist, shoulders, and sciatica gets flare up easily when I'm just trying to use my mouse and keyboard, and to sit down.

unless you have an exact match in their stack whoever interviews better is going to end up going forward in the chance its not an internal or network hire.

the market just has multiple times more workers than available positions right now. 40% of jobs are held by immigrants right now too so there is a lot of h1b fraud going on.

nta but, if you do not offset your autism with something, you're cooked, it's simple as that. Have you proven that despite your autism, you're more competent than other interviewees?

programming is literally talking to a computer and even if you dont like that analogy, computers and software are mere tools so there has always been the need to meet with clients to see what those tools are going to be used for and how

Hello guys is this the blogposting thread for IT slaves?

>>105987434

Hypothetically it's supposed to be the manager and team lead that interface with clients or the product side. You aren't supposed to distract your engineers with those discussions, just create feature work and feed it to them.

These days companies hire token white engineers that also serve as the jack of all trades so they have to meet with clients and hide away the fact the entire engineering team is retarded jeets

>>105987445
luckily you can work on that you just need to expose yourself to new people (if you have to ask go to bars) until you're numbed / no longer feel nervous around new people. It will suck having to initiate conversations with strangers but its hell of a lot better than being socially stunted for the rest of your life.

>>105987471
i dont feel like im socially stunted, IRL i have no issues talking to someone new, it's just that in interviews i get nervous cause i feel like that's something that's important and i wanna make a good impression, cause i feel like they are gonna judge me in a bad way( which they do) and i know every little (percievably) bad thing i do is a dealbreaker so i get nervous( rightfully so) i dont know why is it such a dealbreaker that im nervous on the interview, am i not supposed to be nervous on interviews?
i just wanna be treated like a human being, not like a disposable useful machine, there's no truly important part of the interview that i do bad, it's just that they don't like the person that i truly am

I have better technical skills than my manager. He has no concept of pure functions, oop, python versions, enums, et al and shits out smelly scripts.

Other differences? He guzzles the fool-aids, and I will sleep in until noon. He tries to make jokes and it's mega cringe, and I will get people to laugh or smile.

>>105988382
love the comments. that's how we know LLMs won't replace IT staff anytime soon. only the most retarded "coders" will get replaced. but again, the question of the chicken vs egg comes: if there won't be juniors anymore, then how will there be seniors in the future?

Once the bubble pops and the stock prices tank the survivors will be forced to hire everyone back and tech workers will live the good life again
Just don't get caught holding the bag, I've started reducing my FAANG holdings already

IBM had a 100% participation required "challenge" where everyone had to submit ideas for how an AI Agent could make their job "easier" (aka how it could replace them)

it's so over bros

>>105988736
Bots = money from adverts. It's why lolcows like pirate software rose in the ranks on youtube by riding its algorithm. Night media stars like Asmon/Hasan are also in the same boat. They exchange between 20-60% of the revenue with the company for 1-2 years of dedicated training/grooming to become these big stars.

Shitter only got rid of its own bots/algo for promotions but never bothered with external ones since adverts would leave entirely if they did not exist.

>>105988736

he literally introduced an AI bot that auto-comments on random people's posts. wtf do you think

Yeah I’m not a dyel, I require serious equipment not some 10 lb dumbbell like a Pajeet/woman

the real jobs are at AI start-ups and those can't afford to hire jeets

what the fuck are you waiting for? OpenAI/Anthropic are right there and hiring like crazy

I'm a PhD student in AI/ML. Why do I need to do for Meta to pay me $100m/year?
No seriously. What shit do I need to learn?

>>105989120
I'm not a PhD student and not into ML, but I know people who work there. If you're going for dev roles, it basically boils down to two things
>can you get the interview
which based on what I know from the little info you provided, this is probably true
>can you avoid getting IQ filtered by the onsite
again, this is probably true. Just do leetcode every day until you've done 300-500 problems in the major common patterns then do Meta-specific questions while you apply.

>>105989120
PhD + years of real world experience in machine learning
You and me are on the outside looking in, we were born too late to be the “AI experts” getting paid tons of money.

>>105989252
he's making at least 1m/year for this

Turns out that in order to be an AI expert at my company I only needed to know a bit more than the next guy.

Like what, posting fake shit on twitter to make people think "ai" is a thing so some bumblefuck retard gives your startup more investment funds?

Fire all juniors. I now understand wanting to replace the idiots with AI. Especially if they're gonna spend a week just to use AI to do it wrong.

>>105989941
You actual nigger keep hiring these people. Who's fault is that

>>105989120
>Why do I need to do for Meta to pay me $100m/year?
Make a startup and get acquired. Applications are dead. Of course in that space you're competing with hacks like me who just bought a copy of Karpathy's pytorch book.

>I can wish for getting certs after certs, cranking out leetcode after leetcode, but my body is literally falling apart from arthritis and tendonitis because of decade of chronic stress that i caused myself.
My body is somehow functioning well because I realized I was beginning to decline in my early 20s so I started supplements and meds. Can really recommend lutein zeaxanthin astaxanthin for eye health.

>>105989951
Bitch you think I'm the hiring manager or was in the interview? It would have been a hard no and we should also fire whoever said yes.

My company does use HR for hiring.
Senior devs screen resumes, do interviews, everything. We have never had to fire a junior in the 5 years I've been here. And it's not like we only recruit from top schools either. We just keep our our Karen's in the corner where they can't do any real damage and give them something unimportant to dawdle with every few months. Spread the word.

>>105990083
*Doesnt

I'm feeling optimistic about work and outside of the work.


It's kind of weird and uncanny.

I have to move from docker-swarm to kubernetes for a side project because it's just too brittle and too much of a pain in the ass to scale replicas up and down based on any sort of complex logic in the actual codebase. I was using the docker api via portainer as a workaround but it's hacky and shit. All that time spent on getting swarm to work when kubernetes was the very obvious choice cause I'm a retard. Fuck me.

>>105990792
>docker-swarm
bro are you serious

>>105984215
Where my IT degree chads at?

>>105990998
I'd used docker a lot but never dealt with distributed stuff and it seemed easier to just use swarm then having to deal with kubernetes which I'd never touched. What can you do, live and learn and all that shit

>>105980277
This is still true. You just went to a meme university, graduated with nothing of note on your resume, and can't solve leetcode mediums. If you're as autistic and white as you SAY you are, then this shouldn't be a problem.

Well, it finally happened. I interviewed a fat tranny today. Luckily he flopped pretty badly so it was reasonable to recommend not hiring him.

didn't do very well on my interview today. well at least i'm a woman
