Cingulate posted:I didn't ask you if Andy Ngo is a cool dude (perhaps?) I should follow (god no!), a trusted news source (nope), or if he has dumb friends (definitely). I asked if you literally believe he is an actual Nazi. Do you? I honestly cannot fathom how an intelligent person might even entertain that notion, so I'm trying to establish some very basic grounds first. Not trying to call you dumb, I just cannot understand how anyone might reason themselves into that belief.

It is pretty much as easy as making Kresse, I can recommend it to anyone who likes Radieschen and feeling like a master gardener. also radieschen are considerably more tasty than kresse Mano posted:Probably wild cherries, which can be cool and used for all sort of stuff, but obviously have much less fruit flesh. that's an interesting thought. i could bring a branch from my parents' tree? also the cherry tree we have here is gigantic (banana for scale)

he is only in the house sometimes, and he is the softest and nicest doggo who knows only 3 modes of being: sleeping, eating grass, peeing he never barks and at most snuffles at you https://twitter.com/mithaldu/status/1052346211875921921 i should collate my doggo pictures into a gallery sometime

he is the lesser known type of that that is called akita inu looks mostly the same, but is bigger, even more relaxed than shibas, and was bred to hunt bears and boars and deer he also sheds about thrice his weight in fur daily during the winter ... i had just vaccuumed that carpet

Mithaldu posted:- finding jobs loving sucks and it's never an indictment of the person. companies demand fully trained senior devs for junior pay. try and find companies that actually train devs. and yeah, moving is often involved. i recommend biting the bullet there for at least a few years. (fun fact: imo this also contributes largely to why so many computer nerds are lonely people. it's not easy to build a new friend base after moving, particularly if you haven't been social before) How do I find a good job if I don't want to code outside of work though? Coding is fun enough, but I don't love it nearly enough to hang out in IRC rooms or contribute to open source projects. I don't want to do the same thing at home that I do at work anyway, and sitting in front of a pc 18 hours a day isn't my idea of fun.

Eezee posted:How do I find a good job if I don't want to code outside of work though? If you're ok with an ok job you can do like me and only very rarely code at home when you're actively trying to learn something. The story that you constantly have to have a stellar github history is wrong, you just have to be reasonably good at coding, right now companies are desperately looking for you.

pidan posted:The story that you constantly have to have a stellar github history is wrong What you need is some kind of portfolio (unless you can point to a masters or phd or whatever). And a portfolio is just SOMETHING that contains work you can point at that you've done that people can look at. Doesn't need to be a lot, just some sort of proof you're for real. Github is just an example, and even if you use github you don't need a perfect record. (Seriously, look at mine that i linked, it's far from that.) This depends 100% on what kind of tools you learn and what kind of coder you want to be. Option 1: As i said, look at at the job market and learn the stuff that has MANY open positions. My memory says Java/PHP last time i looked. Those are evergreens with a HUGE market and people searching employees with extremely low expectations. Pay will be fairly low too, but particularly in berlin you can just walk over to the office next door and get a new job if required. Everyone in that market being interchangable cogs results in nobody expect you to do anything but 9-5. Option 2: As i said, coding is an art. Think about your question if asked like this: Eezee posted:How do I find a good job if I don't want to draw outside of work though?

Eezee posted:How do I find a good job if I don't want to code outside of work though? Yeah, that was the most annoying part of interviews, the unavoidable "so what other sort of coding are you doing in your free time?". Though I got lucky enough that "motherfucker I'm doing this poo poo 8 hours a day I'm gonna be hosed if I do this in my free time as well" (rephrased just slightly for the interview ) was enough to land me the job regardless.

Mithaldu posted:I don't know if you're referring to what i wrote (which didn't mean that), but in any case, yeah. Will have a Masters in computer science with decent grades (1.3-1.5 depending on my thesis) from Aachen at the end of the year, hopefully that will be enough combined with some Studentenjob Java coding experience. I'm mostly worried since I'm pretty old. I only started studying CS when I was 24, and now even with Regelstudienzeit I'm 29 so I got to compete with people who are 5 years younger.

Right, then the question becomes how low of a salary you're willing to accept. If you know java and have a degree and are willing to wear a "will code for food" sign then you're almost guaranteed to find something.

No money involved, just emotional investment in the GOAT - who probably won’t remain the GOAT for much longer because one (or both) of Nadal and Djokovic is sure to overtake him now, rendering him a sad footnote in Tennis history

If you have a good masters you don't need to just look at jobs that are basic java coding type gigs. You could also go in a slightly different direction like the data analysis stuff that has been talked about or also other database applications. What's your thesis project about? Does that stuff interest you? Or if you're not afraid to get into embedded stuff there are tons of jobs in automotive. And nobody gives a poo poo about your age. If a) you make clear that you're keen to learn stuff as you go and b) have some problem solving and critical thinking skills then you're golden in most places.

Yeah, I myself come from a Java background, but ended up sliding into a JavaScript position anyway despite fairly minimal experience in that (for normal people: These are actually fairly different despite the names). And having a degree definitely seemed to help bypass a fair bit of the usual "checks". Might just be sampling error, but so far I never ran into the sort of pop quizzes or outright tests during applications that I've seen other people in the industry talk about.

Master thesis is about Model-Driven engineering for IoT devices with something automotive related as a use case. Programming is fine, but honestly I'd rather talk about how to do something than actually implement it. Data Science lectures were always pretty fun and if I was younger I'd seriously consider doing a PhD in Process Mining. The cool jobs in that field seem to mostly be locked behind a doctorate unfortunately. pidan posted:You don't have to tell them your age before they hire you I'd imagine they want my Lebenslauf beforehand.

Bigger companies will have positions for that but don't think a grad can get there, so you'd have to get a few years experience first. There's also going to be teams who analyse performance, development processes etc but I have not enough idea about software development to know what these are called

Mithaldu posted:that's an interesting thought. i could bring a branch from my parents' tree? That looks like a good banana (unlike nearly all else bananas). Those look like Weichselkirschen and a loving huge tree of it. Weichselkirschen stay from the color like that, slightly translucent, maybe a bit fuller of that red, but not darkred/violet/nearly black like most other Kirschen. I think Weichsel in general are a bit later than other varieties. They’re also a bit more sour. If you get more rain and sun the kirschen could get to a good size still. I only remember this from my father when I was young: - you need to cut back the tree (in think in fall andor spring). This should generally push the tree into more fruits and bigger fruits since it doesn’t need all the energy for growing. - for propfing you need a new cut on the tree, some Baumwachs I think it’s called (green, slightly sticky) and some twine. You then bind & stick the newly cut twig from the other tree to that. I think in spring? Since you have no clue and I don’t either, go to some Gartencenter or Gärtner or Landwirt or whatever and ask them! Better let them do it and watch. The tree is certainly big enough that you need a profi to cut it down anyway. I would go now and ask around so you know if you need to do stuff in fall or spring and when exactly.
