The team got given 2 grads because it was super understaffed with people leaving - and I can definetly see why people don't stick around that sucks. all of my computer jobs have owned. my last one had lovely development practices and the codebase was a nightmare but people were friendly and no one was getting super mad and it was a great place to work. redhat is even better

Microsoft changing Dreamspark to hook into your school's auth infrastructure and check that you're in the CS department instead of just blindly trusting your .edu address was a sad day for us all.

if you don't know how to do concurrency you should learn. read a loving book if you have to. have your coworker who does know review your code or work with you. it's not this exceptionally hard thing especially if your language offers constructs for doing it nicely. if you're writing a scheduler for an OS, sure, not everyone can specialize that much. but concurrency is too fundamental a thing to skip out on and is necessary for even relatively simple programs to work nicely.

come to think of it being a combination programmer and digital designer probably does lend itself to concurrency ease

i would be really excited if i needed to do a concurrency thing for work because then i'd finally have an excuse to learn about concurrency i mean if it were really important that the thing be done quickly/properly i would say 'oh i dont think i can do that' but lol nothing i do is important

The Management posted:what level are we talking about here because almost nobody knows this. the level where you just spin up a handful of threads and ad-hoc it because how hard could it be i'm not saying people should know about them, i'm saying they should stick to established patterns so they don't encounter them that's the reason people say that concurrency is "hard", just like cryptography is "hard" but that doesn't mean never use encryption
