It's shameful to admit it but comrade Dyatlov has become a spirit animal of project managers in our group chats at work. Unfortunately all of the PM memes are...bad. They're very bad. I hope it's mostly like monkeys on a typewriter and one day there will be a funny one. Fallom posted:no math in systems engineering outside of basic statistics but I sure did have to do All the Math for the aerospace BS But is a systems engineering masters without the underlying foundation in engineering a thing?

The wealth management firm next door has dogs in the office every day. Go finance for this reason.

I am suffering from a terminal case of senioritis. I've pushed all my difficult meetings with lovely offices past the end of the contract so I don't have to deal with them and I'm trying to run out the clock with a bunch of other dumb things I don't want to do anymore. I also told my team that I'm not going to be enforcing our telework/on-site requirements anymore so they can be remote 3 days a week now. gently caress it.

Can most likely get the GRE waived, but I’ve still been looking to take it. lovely part is FSU’s master in finance program starts in the summer so it’s too late to do that. I could go get a masters in economics, but I’m not sure if that’s as good as the MSF. Also at the jacking off pun.

I used to work extensively in the IT industry before joining the Navy and have some connections here to local IT people. FSU does have an MSIT that I could get. I'll keep it on my mind. Thanks!

I've fortunately been able to largely squash bizarre YouTube suggestions as of late. About two months ago I wiped my entire watch history and then subsequently picked "I'm not interested in this channel or topic" an absolute fuckload. The root cause of everything was of course that I watched whatever random videos were posted on the forums and that the extremely limited amount of stuff I was subscribed to is largely gaming related. So I watch forum posted videos in incognito mode and I think I've successfully blocked out everything that would come from gaming-adjunct communities.

I can mostly deal with this now. I don't care if YouTube thinks that I'm British. Also I'm going to listen the gently caress out of that quantum presentation later.

I'll keep it on my mind. Thanks! A finance degree plus technology experience opens the door for IT security at financial institutions, both as an in-house guy, and as a third party pen tester. My brother works as the latter, and the money's good, according to him. Dude travels like 60% of the year, though. Also got him on a recruiting list for a three letter agency, which he turned down because of the 40ish% pay cut. Finance degree works out in weird ways sometimes, is where I guess I was going with that.

Also got him on a recruiting list for a three letter agency, which he turned down because of the 40ish% pay cut. IT Security largely falls into two large buckets: Governance / Risk / Compliance aka GRC aka the loving dicks who sit down and say “we should totally use cloud based proxy providers who have continuously updating blacklists so we don’t have to manage what our employees are seeing on the web”. They’re definitely the equivalent of paper pushers / office workers staying CONUS the entire career. Engineering / Operations aka the loving dicks who actually implement said cloud proxy and make sure it works and have to field the questions because the GRC dicks can’t be bothered to adequately communicate with end users and don’t have to pick up the phone at 2am to unblock nba.com (yes seriously) because the proxy freaked out. They’re the equivalent of the dumb fucks who deployed in the sandbox repeatedly because they hate themselves. Don’t do what I did and stay in Ops, be a GRC dick because they have room for advancement and generally are not caught up in the details. Understand (broadly) the implications of violating HIPPA, GDPR, PCI, GLBA, SOX, AML, etc. Understand PII, MFA, the relationship between accessibility, confidentiality, and integrity within system security design, etc. Basically its high level stuff with a ton of definition interpretation work to tailor to the needs of a particular org. Also unless the Information Systems degree changed drastically in the last 5 years, FSU’s degree was under the Library Information Sciences department and it didn’t meet my needs so I only lasted a single term.

This may be a little old school but if you want a degree with 100% employment at the end of it, get something with "engineering" in the title that actually involves some sort of getting dirty. Thank me later.

A friend of mine is out here in Colorado for a week or so in a class trip for his earth science degree. He's been sending me pictures of all the weed stuff they bought down in Walsenburg. Looks like kids shopped in a candy store. It's great.
