Would you mind giving some information about what makes a junior engineer stick out in those threads? I'm currently looking for that type of work and any advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Location: Philadelphia, USA Remote: Yes (but on-site is okay too!) Willing to relocate: For the right opportunity Technologies: Python, Flask, C/C++, React, Node.js, SQL, React, Visual Basic Currently learning: Redux…
In the US this is unlikely to happen because the big 4 sports all want to control their own distribution, TV rights, and streaming. I think they believe there's more money in that method.
Finance, accounting, engineering, and many other careers have been around longer, have been commoditized to varying degrees, yet still enjoy good pay. I think developers will still make good money for decades. I could,…
To add to your point, I think this reinforces the value of spaced repetition learning. It's been show to been one of the best ways to actually retain information. So, as you said, just doing the exercises only gets one…
Good point, I guess the comment to which I responded could be read two different ways also. No one likes to be forced to do anything, and any perception of unfairness could easily elicit a stronger response of…
The government (the Supreme Court in this case) wasn't speaking for everyone, they were merely protecting the rights of a certain segment of the population. It's an important distinction to make. There was no…
Sorry, but these examples aren't properly analogous. A driving equivalent would something like automatic breaking technology. If it was proven that people driving with this were 50% less likely to cause accidents and…
They also __legally__ unload a large amount of tax burden by working with APs[1] on special custom ETF redemption orders. For example, an AP will place a redemption order for an equity ETF. Typically, they will either…
I'm in a similar situation. My first degree was in Finance and I'm currently getting a second degree in CS. I'll be finishing my degree this fall and will be 31. I work in Finance now in a sort of 'tech-adjacent'…
Fair point.
Do you mean in terms of spending?
A fear of mine is that MMT gains enough traction to be implemented, but only partially. Similar to what has happened with the ACA. For argument's sake, let's just assume MMT is a sound theory. Regardless, if it's only…
And I think he's useful at least as a voice that challenges some conventional mental models for looking at things in math, finance, and decision making. He's not an infallible visionary and should not be taken as…
I don't think that's the point though. If I understand correctly, the point is that it's okay to charge by usage -- just not specifically giving different rates to different things. Net neutrality says that the ISPs…
Will do, thanks. I'm hoping I can find time to pop by Cooperage in the next month or so. I'll definitely shoot a message over when I do. I'll check out the Discord server today. Thanks!
It's confusing and depends on the industry. Sometimes they're used interchangeably. In some disciplines consultants literally just 'consult' and don't fill a role. In the accounting world we have employees that we call…
I personally had a great experience at Warby Parker. I probably saved $200-300 and didn't feel pressured to buy anything.
I worked at Vanguard for about 5 years and Mr. Bogle was omnipresent on campus, working in his research area and dining (almost) every day in the on-campus cafeteria. In my few interactions with him, he was always nice…
No, you are allowed. You just aren't allowed to online. Many states now allow sports gambling, with many more on the way.
Do you plan on just saving cash then for retirement?
I remember a similar discussion on here about hedge funds. The goals of the ultra-rich investors are often very different than average people. In a 401k investment account we try to find the best ways to get a return on…
If you don't mind me asking... Did you find a job before you left? Did you already speak Spanish?
This is really helpful, thank you. I've been diving into heavy doses of JavaScript lately -- I'll continue with that and augment it with TypeScript and React too.
I was wondering if you could give me a little advice as to what I should focus on to more specialize in the Microsoft stack? I'm on a bit of an unusual track into software engineering, having started in finance and…
