Anyone knows if it's doable to go from a web dev (fullstack java shit) to an IA developer professionally? I'm working for a TV channel and I'm heavily interested in computed vision.
But I checked the jobs online, they always ask for specific big data/IA experience.

I'm only planning in reading pic related and making my own project and come with that to interviews. Playable you think?

i mean patreongrifters are also a thing but i just find the situation more hotter. idk there seems to be less "roleplay" stuff in real life stuff but hentai takes it 100% serious sometimes which is kinda hot. real life always has that twinge of irony or it's just the raw movements without much emotions. even their tiktok "safehorny" baits are hotter than their actual videos.

My boss doesn't even really care for performance metrics. I'm probably going to get a 2 or 3. It feels demoralizing since how is it my fucking fault I haven't achieved anything this year when upper management and stakeholders keeps fucking holding the fort. PM isn't moving the project because there's always something new and it's "our" fault that it's not moving because we said "oh we won't be able to implement this because of x". "oh okay". "ask the same question next week" "still no." "oh okay". "ask the same question next week" "still no but you can try checking if y has a solution for this" "ask the same question next week."

Otherwise my work is chill so I should just layback and take the 2/5 or 3/5 but at the same time I'm looking at my "star coworker" and I'm just like this is fucking bullshit bro.

Like, is it something HR wants to see because of the hype, or should you leave it out since a real developer might see it and not want the team to spend their with fixing AI hallucinations?

Fuck boomers. My boomer coworker is such a little bitchy faggot I hope he breaks his hip. I’m out here doing so much heavy lifting for this god forsaken team and this old cunt goes out of his way to be a retard. I can’t wait to burn these fuckers by moving to another company, these guys should be forced into retirement or at least the backseat and be made to shut the fuck up. Old people are the worst if they don’t grow up and accept their fate, worse than any manchild out there.

Company A:
+ Better fit for my core skills and interests.
+ Better total compensation (includes some stock with unspecified terms).
+ Working on a product, likely to have work long-term.
+ More PTO to start.
- Foreign.
- Doesn't follow local IT work agreements.
- May require foreign travel.
- Left a weird taste in interview and communications.

Company B:
+ Domestic.
+ Follows local IT work agreements.
+ Shouldn't require travel (HQ is local).
+ Left a good impression in interview.
- Worse fit for my core skills and interests.
- Worse total compensation (similar salary but no stock).
- Subcontracting, less likely to have (same) work long-term.
- Less PTO to start.

Holy shit this project is a fucking disaster... For a long time, it was "managed" by the lead engineer, who is a smart guy but possibly the most scatterbrained person I've ever worked with (and I'm almost 40). Just a complete mess... random work items, no prioritization, hurry up and do this, then put it aside to do that... So they finally assigned an actual manager who not only wants to get the work in order, but wants to reorganize the entire product, and it's getting fucking worse now... he created duplicate tickets and stories for everything we were working on, and then we also need to use this other work tracking took which is basically just a spreadsheet, and then threw a bunch of random half-assed ideas he had into the mix without consulting any of us, even though he first learned of this project like last week. Only two more months and I can leave this shithole and keep my money.

Because im the anon who my employer goes to to produce a product (although i put stipulations in the contract regarding ownership that are rather broad, specifically regarding inventory management and automation and some other shit regarding automating hikvision-style cameras that takes xml payloads for control which goes unused in my current position)

Any sensible company will own their own solutions and the employee that maintains it, as opposed to have some third party they have to deal with. Thats actually why they brought me on board, because the third party kept failing to meet their expectations and deliver and it made them look bad because my employer supports other companies

Also, if you prop some anon up you are propping up someone you don't know and if they fail, you look bad for advertising some random ass literally who person who you dont even know yourself. The risk is too damn high

I'm not even applying only to the jobs I want anymore I'm just aiming to basically everything. I'm not even aiming for good or normal pay, I just want a job and experience so I can build up to senior.

Do I need some special languages? What do I put? I know csharp, C, C++, unity, unreal engine, Photoshop, illustrator, html, css, JavaScript, a bit of python, 3d modeling with blender and 3dsmax, now I'm learning SQL.

I'm also tired of applying to linkedin jobs and getting automatic rejection emails. I don't know if the market is that bad or if my resume is that bad, but every time I show my resume everyone says it is fine.

I don't even think most of the jobs I see are real. In other job applications pages there aren't that many jobs in the first place, LinkedIn is where I see most stuff. But the only thing I've achieved by applying to jobs is getting more spam calls.

It is true that the thing worse than having a job is having no job

I'm not IT but I used to rely on an IT guy to sort out my access rights, give me cables, unfuck my lab computers and the like. Really nice fella, competent and proactive too. After about two years he managed to get hired by one of the dev teams and is now doing embedded systems

They only read the big things then pass it on. If you have skills, projects, knowledge or learned it in your degree then you put that on the resume. Reality is they look at it for 10 seconds to find at most 5 items before passing it back. HR interview is basically making sure you are available to move, alive and not a complete shut in robot.

Same.
It's really sad.
You get filtered by AI when applying and don't have these buzzwords in your resume.
But I refuse to lie.

And the saddest part is that many of these companies don't even need such a heavy stack.
HR hags just don't know any better and think they must include all the new tech.
And anyway, this shit is not even hard to learn. Unless you are going for some massive scaling which does require some knowledge, the rest is just following the tutorial.

They can fire you for any reason but that doesn't mean you can't exact a cost for them doing so.
They led you to enter a business relationship with them under false pretenses. Document everything and take it all to a lawyer for a consultation at the very least. If you spent money moving for this job, getting an apartment, turning down other jobs, whatever, then these people fucked you over man. You shouldn't have to take a pay cut because they are the ones who fucked up, if that is even real or if it's just a bullshit excuse to try and bully you into lower pay. Fuck them.

Guys i heard NOC roles are a good entry level position for people who want to get into networking, and that there's always decent demand due to high turnover.
But despite living in a large city, in a western country, I'm having trouble finding job listings for these roles. Whats the deal?
It's a 24 hour role that's stressful and has constant demand for workers, even in rough economic scenarios right?
Anonymous No.107132732 [Report]
>>107132689
Its not entry level. Help desk is entry level and requires barely any certs. Most NOC positions require either a Bachelors, CCNA, CCNP or 5-10 years of networking experience. You generally deal with more WAN based networking than LAN based. Some entry networking that deals with LAN has you work with cable installation, VOIP, Active directory and installation of switches and routers. The entire industry is hit and miss on requirements but generally for all IT, networking is what you should learn first before further specialization. NOC is that further specialization so you should consider getting your CCNP and Masters degree so you can move up to network engineering.

The retards at the Fed decided they had to put the brakes on the economy despite the fact that low rates had absolutely nothing to do with the real cause of inflation, which was that people were refusing to work because they were scared of the coof and that drove up wages and prices of everything across the economy. They're still just as retarded today and think that cutting rates now will bring back the high inflation of the 2021, which is why they continue to stifle all economic growth and drive us further into a recession. Jerome Powell and the rest of the Fed board are actual mouthbreathing retards without an ounce of critical thinking ability.

Holy shit I hate working with midwits

Every fucking time

At my first job it was this absolute retard who broke everything he touched and was basically paid to sabotage the company. At some point I started straight up reversing his commits to fix bugs and he got mad kek. He also talked shit about me the entire time, back then I was too intimidated to say anything because it was my first job and he was senior. He is now tech lead somewhere else because he's good at talking.

They fired him and hired some ukrainians, from whom I learned how to bullshit managers and pretend to be more skilled than I am, because they were remarkably good at that. But their work was again a constant stream of new bugs, bad code etc.

At my current job, same shit. There's this boomer guy who is a great guy btw, I have nothing against him except that I am right now mad at him because I am working on his code, but I would never say anything to hurt him or make him look bad. He also cares and does his best, its just that he does not have the mental acuity to produce actually good code (for example he can't make it simple, it's always way over convoluted), he does care though. But damn. This is so fucking tiring. Are there no jobs that are free of midwits? Maybe it's because I always work at mid companies that offer remote and decent pay without a lot of workload or pressure. Maybe it would be different at some prestigious one.

Holy shit yes I fucking hate it so much. I stop all work and literally stare at the DM window until they say something else. Sometimes "jeet is typing" appears and then it stops, comes back after 2-3 minutes, until I finally say "hey" and then they immediately respond. I don't think it's a display of dominance. These RETARDS need confirmations upon confirmations to not lose their "jobs". Even in exchanging greetings.

ive been prone to styes for over a decade since i have long girly eyelashes and there isnt anything to make them go away except taking antibiotics which they build resistance to

i guess there have been innovations in anti-stye treatment because they recently gave this eyedrop called xdemvy that didnt exist before

Anyone get this weird feeling when they're forced to present or train something to a group? It usually ends up fine but I get this weird pit in my chest and stomach and it's usually like stemming from some weird anger and anxiety and all this gloosh goosh. Anyone know how to get that feeling to go away?

it sounds like they didn't really need you and just now realized after no one wants to deal with you as in mentor you. sorry anon. that fucking sucks. this is exactly what I worry will happen to me if I quit my fucking stupid job (4 years) comfort is a tranquilizer. as other anons mentioned, try standing up for yourself. but I suspect relationships will be difficult if you do something about it and still stay. there should be someone willing to help you out. make you productive

It's not really the "presenting" feeling although maybe it is. It's more like "what's the fucking point, can't they read the fucking SOP?", "why am I the one doing the fucking training?", "oh great now they're going to ask me a shit ton of stuff I have no authority to answer and if I can't get rid of it guess I have to add it to my plate." do I get sucked off for this? Nope.

WV is beautiful but the land is so mountainous its nearly impossible to build. I spent years traveling the state looking for a good home and gave up. You'll get roads that are one lane wide but meant for two-way traffic and have to dodge oil trucks not to mention a trip to walmart is like, 45 min but i guess thats if your in the boonies like i wanted.

If they require you to move to WV, i'd say no unless its a government job or you are absolutely sure they will keep you for a long time

I get the feeling that some people in this thread are probably pajeets and they won't feel welcome if we keep talking shit about them like that.

They are tech workers too. Idk, maybe I'm just naive but I feel bad. I want us all to be frens.

I work with pajeets too and have had bad experiences too, of course. But not all of them are bad. There are certain factors that make the average south asian peform worse than the average white dev, but it's not like pajeet = awful. A combination of factors, attitude, culture where they work, etc, go into it, but of course, when a company outsources to indians specifically to save money and it's an indian consulting company that competes based on price, then they're going to be beyond awful.

Menopause is something that's unavoidable. This is because every woman has to go through this sooner or later.

For me, although this topic has never come up before, but I think that it's best to talk about menopause only in private circles. This is because this is a private matter that should be kept to ourselves; unless it's affecting our work performance.

This matter can be told to those who are close to us or are considered as friends. This is because it should be treated as a normal topic just like any other topic.

Menopause is something that shouldn't be hidden. This is because it's not a shameful thing. But, it shouldn't be spreaded everywhere as it's not work related after all.
