yeah i think this is going to be a big problem in like 5 years. same thing with H1B. and also cutting federal funding for research grants.
if you're not hiring and training entry level engineers, you're not going to have mid and senior engineers. and hiring foreigns because they're cheaper is hypocritical when the administration wants to protect american manufacturing. it's literally the same national security risk.
and research grants fund the university labs that grad students cut their teeth in before actually going into the workforce.
it's shortsighted in an incredibly obvious way.

>>108656413
It's not sustainable. Stock faggot here, there isn't anything these AI data centers can do that is profitable yet. Right now there is insane demand but that's because prices are low. If they need to jack up prices to the point that its actually profitable, or at least breaks even, the demand is going to plummet

Which is stupid because traditional data centers were already profitable. Whether it was the google cloud or amazon's aws or microsoft's azure, normal boring data centers made money. Like a ton of money. But the AI data centers are 1) more expensive to make 2) more expensive to run/maintain 3) burn out easier 4) can't do anything that is more profitable than normal data centers

so yeah, my tech exposure is only 6% for a reason lol

i definitely think it's not sustainable but it has downstream consequences that persist even after the bleeding stops. it's similar to low birthrates. even if companies "decide" to flip and start investing in domestic talent, new students have already been dissuaded from pursuing the major because of how bad they've heard employment is. plus, however many graduates that worked shit jobs or switched careers and now their skills are weaker than they'd otherwise be.

it's just kind of weird that the country is experiencing this "golden age" of programming and AI, where you'd figure companies would invest hard into the workforce to take advantage of it.
i think the firing because of "AI efficiency" is a smoke screen for interest rates being fucked and companies not having as much money to throw around. but i guess "we can't afford to pay junior engineers" sounds a lot worse to shareholders.

How exactly will AI become profitable? I don't see the mass market adopting it and I don't see adapting it for the mass market either. All I see is tons of chatbot garbage comes in all stripes, yet people don't really show interest.

It's almost like they're throwing money in fire and hoping for a miracle. No doubt you can make a quick buck from their stocks now, but then what? -90% and another 15 years floundering at the bottom like it was after 2008?

Is there ever a situation where someone being jobless is their fault?

I know someone who has nearly 10 years of dev experience but now hasn't had a job in a year. He said he's looking and has sent out 200+ applications, but no luck.

Also, a lot his positions were typically around 1 year and then he would get let go or leave on his own for various reasons.

Is the market actually this bad or he is doing something wrong?

have you thought about pooling your money with your boys to do investments? I was talking with a friend of mine I graduated with about doing some gay scheme with like 4-5 of us to buy property or whatever and split all the costs/profits. assuming the people I go in with are trustworthy and reliable, why not? is this a retarded move or are we clever? why don't I hear more about people doing this?

>everyone will have different ideas on the property because it's 5 people
>who's deciding on administration, maintenance, etc.?

now does that sound like a great idea, or a horrible idea
>>
>>108657326
100% I think there are pain points but that's the trade off. either frontloading the whole thing as one person or splitting it among many. I think an ideal situation would be if you had like, multiple properties in the pool to actually get hedging and scaling benefits that you wouldn't get as an individual. if you had like 6 multifamilies between 3-4 people, it's less devastating when one of them sits empty for a bit.
we're all in our 30s and are pretty established, so I do think it's different from than if we were all like 20 years old. I think there's stuff to work out but the juice looks like it's worth the squeeze from the angle I'm looking at. but maybe instead of 4-5 I pare it down to like... 2-3 real niggas
>>
>>108657364
if 3 people can afford 6 multifamilies then why not just have 1 person with 2
>>
>>108656783
>Also, a lot his positions were typically around 1 year and then he would get let go or leave on his own for various reasons.

That's a big red flag. It means he's always at junior level at every job and never got intimate with the codebases and systems he worked on.

>10 years of dev experience

In that anon's case, it would be like claiming you've got 10 years experience brushing your teeth.
>>
>>108657309
I have no clue on businesses like this (or any other except for small time stuff), so take my opinion for what it is: an opinion from some anonymous retard from the internet.

>assuming the people I go in with are trustworthy and reliable, why not?
that's a big assumption.

>is this a retarded move or are we clever?
like the other anon said, there are tons of "what if"s. you better ask a lawyer. I'd also suggest asking >>>/biz/, but consider that they are retarded, if not outright malicious, though some of them might give you some useful info, maybe.

> 4-5 of us
that's too many people already. not only you have a lot of "what if"s, you also dilute responsibilities too much IMO.

>>108656783
I 100% agree with >>108657481 . it's really, REALLY odd to have ~1 year of employment with each employer. also,

>he would get let go or leave on his own for various reasons

market is pretty fucked, it gets flooded with thousands of people who have years of big tech/FAANG experience every other week so employers can afford to be super picky. when that's who you're competing with, having blatant evidence that you're a serial job hopper doesn't help
>>
>>108657409
i meant longer term. there's stuff that scales with having multiple. stuff like having maintenance guys or having solid leases or just learning how the game works. going from 0 properties to 1 property is a big jump but it's probably not so bad to go from 1 to 2, or 5 to 6.

so you kind of spread the knowledge, for one. but the other thing is hedging. if you have 2 properties and one is fucked up, that's a much bigger deal than if you are splitting 6 properties and 1 is fucked up.

also getting my foot in the door is a lot easier if i'm three-waying a house with 3 people, than if i'm all-in with just me. and we'd get to the multi property stage a lot quicker since it's proportionally less. it's literally a third less. if we could each buy one, then we could collectively buy three.

and it also opens the opportunity to diversify. maybe some multifamily, maybe some small bay industrial, townhouses, etc.

>>108657495
fair point. this was really a thing we were just shooting the shit about. talking about investments and stuff and then going "you know, fuck, we could just go in half-and-half on something. i bet you so-and-so would be up for it too. we could probably get a handful of guys and split a place for basically nothing".

reason why i didn't go to biz is because i'd like to see what my fellow autists think about it, and i think you guys have some good points. smaller is probably better, but it might be worth actually discussing it further and maybe seriously considering it.

Oh man i nearly got the ass chewing of my life in the military for asking an Officer(female) to do that very thing for her very important meeting that i couldn't go to since she never told me anything.

More so she admitted that she didn't bother to contact my leadership about it which would've been the first step on stealing personnel for work from another section. I was never luckier since.

have you heard the parable of the second arrow? it goes something like, you're walking in the woods and out of nowhere you get shot with an arrow. it hurts and you're bleeding. and then you think about it, and you're pissed. you can't believe someone would have the audacity to do this. you're going to have to go to the doctor, get it removed, fuck this is horseshit.
that's the second arrow. the first arrow is the pain. sometimes unavoidable shit happens and you get fucked. but you can dodge the second arrow. it serves no purpose to get pissed about the thing that already happened. you're just suffering more for nothing. someone cuts you off in traffic-- that sucks. but calling them a nigger and laying on the horn and being pissed off for the rest of your drive is avoidable. dodge the second arrow.

also, you need something more substantial in your life.
it's spring, consider ordering some seeds and starting a garden. or just put them in containers. peppers are easy. onions, garlic. tomatoes. depends on where you are, geographically, but consider growing some food. it's satisfying.
perhaps start going to the gym?
do you like riding bikes? you could get into mountain biking and riding trails.
you need to have shit outside of work. that shit is so unimportant. it is bothering you so much because you don't have other things in your life that you can identify with.

>Managing work/life boundaries so you can get out the door by five
Occasionally helping some people out to build relationships and a good reputation in the company will do way more for your "work life balance" than autistically telling every one to fuck off because it's 4.59pm and you NEED to be in the parking lot before the clock strikes 5.

My boss has a new project that I’m sure I’m going to have to build that will be a bunch of AI agents with different tasks. One of the agents, aptly named the “observer agent” will automate white collar tasks by observing the human worker, taking notes, asking questions, and will create a program to automate that task. I’m not trolling. He wants to automate this entire process. It is by far the most AI psychosis-pilled shit I’ve ever heard and it’s completely absurd. Automating tasks is one thing, but having it do the whole pipeline, especially gathering business requirements is so fucking stupid. Does anyone else have an employer like this?

Is it any worse than having jeets do the work? modern capitalism will do its thing
>>
>>108658314
I don't understand it fully. He wants one agent for notes, one for questions, etc. One agent to specialize in each task a human does?

That's more than what Cursor/Claude etc do.

Even a pipeline to generate properties for some bullshit transcription is enough etl for 1 project. Your etl will be way more complex.

What does he figure the cost for all the LLM API calls will be? Lower than a white collar mans 6 figures?

I'm guessing he got this gay idea from up north, the sociopaths. Ime the clueless managers don't understand ai in the slightest. Even the term LLM trips them up
>>
>>108658321
You can do something kinda close to that by having a WFH job + say at home wife. Especially if you control your hours. At one point I would work over 13 hours for 3 days to meet my 40hr quota so I have 4 days off. It's a bit brutal, but caffeine drinks are cheap.

>I'm guessing he got this gay idea from up north, the sociopaths. Ime the clueless managers don't understand ai in the slightest. Even the term LLM trips them up
Well, he is the manager lol and not technical in the slightest. Dude sees it create a login and some backend KYC logic (nothing face-detection related, just CRUD) and thinks it can do anything. I genuinely gave vibecoding a shot on this last project I had and it was a complete mess but the third in command of the company, who was also a part of the project, won't explicitly admit that it took just as long to vibecode it as it would have taken to do most of the project by hand with some AI use. He'll beat around the bush and will hint that was the issue but he'll never say it, and then him and the co-owner of the company will talk about how AI can do this and that, but can't tell you the difference between a model and an agent (there isn't a difference, kys if you disagree)

I graduated last May and I've been working as a Software Engineer at a startup for 7-8 months now. We overhauled our app and I've been the lead developer on it. For the past 4 months, I've been working 10-12 hour days and nearly every weekend (told to or the workload is so much that I have to). The work is stressful since my manager is non-technical with an aggressive temper. Most meetings end up with me being demeaned or yelled at when I push back on things that are near impossible to implement. There is also no senior on the team so I'm constantly worried that I'm going to run into a problem that I don't have the skill or experience to solve. Right now I'm doing all the development, testing, deployments, and sysadmin support.

Every day I start work with dread and I wake up anxious to a crazy amounts of Slack messages because my manager is in Europe. I haven't been able to sleep well and my latest health / blood checks were horrible (I'm 23 and fit). All day, it feels like I have a fight/flight response and I start physically shaking during demos and when I see new designs in Figma.

Everyday I tell myself I'm going to quit tomorrow and I just need to make it through today.

I've tried applying to jobs, but no bites. I have just under 1 YOE and the market is rough so I'm thinking about trying to change careers or enlisting in the military.

I know this general has been negative and I hate to contribute to it, but I'm lost on what to do.

During university i used to be able to tackle on 6 courses per semester, 4 final projects, and 2 classes with lab quizzes. I pushed through after dinner and did it all on weekends too. I ended up only having 2.94 gpa anyway

It's been a year and 5 months since i graduate and now i just dont know what to do. I know i gotta code everyday regardless and keep making projects, apply for jobs, prepare for psychological tests, do take home tests, prep for interviews. Sometimes there's just chores coming up over the days and i dont want to play catch up at night / weekends.

I thought i could start learning to draw too with all these abundance of time but i just wont start.

My most productive day is probably just applying, do some take home test if any, then scroll/sleep for the rest of the day.

I tried getting qa jobs. Getting admin jobs.

400 applications, 21 take home tests, and 6 interviews so far

Maybe im just that type of person who cant see himself doing this thing for more than 6-12 months. I just cant seem to tolerate doing something like webdev for at least the next 5-10 years when i cant even stick to a routine for more than a month.

I know im getting older (turning 25 in may) and being unskilled for so long is harrowing. I know that if my end goal is working in government and passing the selection so i dont have to send out applications again for the rest of my life and getting my pension taken care of i still gotta be able to do basic CRUD.

I know that turning 30 our bodies will start to breakdown and if i dont utilize the youth i have now to gain opportunities i will just suffer worse down the line.

I keep seeing people with compsci degree but they're able to find work in visual development, game art, animation, and i just cant help but jealous, but i know they can achieve that through putting their hours too every day.

Yes. You shouldn't give a shit about what anyone who doesn't matter to you says or does.

I'm not saying you shouldn't talk back (although most of the time it's better to ignore the whole situation), just don't invest yourself into it.

Had one of the best interviews to date last week and the hiring manager was telling me they would get back after they return next week. Took up an entire hour for the interview, good conversation, answered their spelled-out behavior questions, they kept referring the job as, "when you start," or, "you" whenever speaking about the role. Said they liked my suggestions when asked about their company could improve on, asked if I'll do a drug test. I mean, sounded pretty probable I was being considered. Then today, I get one of those automated messages saying they're not moving forward with my application. Like wth? How they go from sounding promising to straight out they supposedly finding a better candidate? Should I email the hiring manager pretending I didn't see that auto email from their HR dept?

I don't want an easy job, I want a fulfilling job. Or at least at the minimum a job that pays well. This job is neither. The company is boring as shit, it's boomer hell, and it's corporate and soulless as it gets. It's a pharmaceutical manufacturing company that's been around forever and prints money (think johnson and johnson) where everyone gets paid well except the grunt workers that are offshored and the near bottom of the barrel office workers (me) / interns / grunt team leaders. One of my supervisors has been with the company for 25 years and now she's offloaded like half her work to me, except she gets paid 3x my salary. If it wasn't for the money and generous PTO everyone else would have already quit. I don't get either.

And ironically the PTO makes my job even harder because often enough whenever I need something, the dude that i'm supposed to get it from is on PTO. it took them 6 business days to get me key permissions to do one certain part of the job because the ONLY guy that's allowed to grant that is in california, and he was off on pto for the last two weeks.

>but why they think it's bad being on your laptop? It's just an 8 hour job right?
Because they're incredibly strict about security and office policy. I brought my laptop to study, work on projects, or fuck around on leetcode and I basically haven't been able to do any of that because they stock me up with so much bullshit. I'm can't install anything on my work laptop without permission, log in to my work email from an outside device, or even stick a usb into the laptop and retrieve files.
Forget about trying to install vscode or anything to fuck around. I tried to get teams on my phone couldn't even log in. One of my supervisors (the lead helpdesk technician from this branch) had to email some other dude in india where they offshored those admin perms.

And there's probably no chance of getting an SWE job here either.

>And there's probably no chance of getting an SWE job here either.
They've offshored a bunch of the tech branch off to india and all office software is running on ancient cheap licenses from the 2000s, or they contract the work out to other companies (also probably indians)
My dad keeps trying to feed me bullshit about how great it is and how they're really going to have opportunities for me here if I stay but I fucking hate it so much. I know it's a dead end

>It's just an 8 hour job right?
Nope!! 8 hour job, 2 hour commute, $20 an hour, and they're saddling me with overtime too. The only good thing about this job is that I get overtime (also a negative because I have no fucking time to study or apply to other jobs) and that I can stay as long as I want until I quit. They will never fire me unless I do something incredibly retarded. They don't do layoffs either.

>>108664191
No, you shouldn't do that.
You probably did have a good interview but that doesn't mean that they didn't like someone more.
Just do more of what you did and don't overthink why you didn't get it.
Unless you're a clueless retard who is actually blowing it there is really no recourse.

Joining the workforce and realizing all the boomer memes are true is something really. They truly think they’re all special and main characters. It’s ironic how they themselves are guilty of the shit they accused younger generations of. The only boomers I can tolerate are the ones who rarely open their mouths. Rest are backstabbing cunts, I think I just need to HR buckbreak them. They think they’re untouchable. Seniority was a mistake, and any society that runs off seniority to such a degree is sick. The elderly should be taken care of but the way wealth and power is centered on them is just silly.

genuinely no idea what they're expecting. I have no idea about when they want the data, what they do with the data, or what they use to transmit the data. unless I'm missing something I think they're just looking to fuck you over so they can say you failed the application.

Somehow, despite recently graduating and with the current job market, I got an interview soon. It's for .NET development. What kind of questions can I expect?

well, as the other anon said, this general kinda sucks...

still, you could make a new thread and ask there. new threads usually get a lot of attention. plus if you post first, you'll get many replies.
>>
>>108665578
Are we talking technical or just general interview questions? If it's general then i would recommend reading and acting out characters out loud would help. Then roleplaying with friends or family about what you would normally expect.

If it's technical then its a sea of possibilities but studying your own resume for questions should be the first thing you do before diving deeper into the topic they actually want to hire you on for.
>>
have you taken the bench tech pill yet, anon? there are millions of units which all need some amount of repair. what are you doing about it?

>>108665865
It's a phone interview so I'm not really sure what to expect. Should I expect technical questions or just general ones?
>>
>>108665897
Technical would be theory related if anything. At most other than theory you should be able to explain the technical topic in a mind map way ie you show through explanation every step of the way to get to a possible solution. If you have no solution then you should know who to defer too.

If it's a technical take home test then RIP you can get sidelined easily with entry level questions and have a interview end in 10 mins. If it's going well you could go as far as 5 hours like with amazon to determine your job placement as an engineer if you make it that long.

If it's personality then they want you to explain your prior work and weed out any possibility of you being a shut in retard. It's not easy to pass this but you can do alot with practice "100 random interview questions"

Bash scripting is humbling. I’ve spent the last week feeling like I’m trying to learn a foreign language from a textbook written in 1978. One missed space or a slightly wrong bracket and the whole thing dies with a cryptic error message. It’s a grind.
But then I pivoted into Docker this week, and I could actually breathe again.
The difference? Context. I’ve been messing with containers in my home lab for a couple of years now—running services like Nextcloud and Valheim. Because I had that "hands-on" history, the theory finally had a place to land.
Bash feels like abstract math; Docker feels like building with Legos I already own.
The Golden Rule of the Lab: If you’re doing this at home, keep your "Experimental" and "Production" environments strictly separate. There is no faster way to have a household mutiny on your hands than nuking the DNS or the Wi-Fi while you're testing a new script. My "Production" stack (Pi-hole, pfSense, etc.) stays stable so the house stays happy, while the "Experimental" nodes are where I’m allowed to break things.
The takeaway: Theoretical study is necessary, but the home lab is where the actual "clicking" happens. If you’re pivoting careers like I am, don't just read the documentation—break something in your own rack. It’s the only way the "foreign language" starts making sense.

Considering its traffic cameras they would be worried about the logistics of installing these devices with underground lines i would also assume they could answer what requirements would be needed for the city/state/government they are working for. Sure they wouldn't be able to answer the full project requirement since it regards CCTV setups/servers/network storage ect but it would be worked under a project manager between the 2 in order to get a proper build out for the aforementioned agencies involed.

>>108666597
The project requirements reguarding those cameras, for a civil engineer, would be
