Every level tech job hunting is impossible right now. I've applied to over 100 positions in the last two months. I got one interview, was offered a second one, then ghosted. I'm on year four of my bachelor's in CS. Working for 20ยข above min wage at a company I've worked at for 3 years. ๐Ÿฅฒ

The economy is broken. The tech sector is broken. Minimum wage is broken. And I feel like an absolute nut job at this point just telling myself "Trust the process". The process is broken too. What am I supposed to do?

Because I have a good paying job as a nurse, I was able to save money to give to my son to buy a car. He needed a car because his new job requires it. Without that car, he wouldn't be able to work. It's an unfair vicious cycle. Need job to buy a car, need car to get a job.

Watching NFL football and just saw a straight up propaganda advertisement paid for by the US Government. I hate this timeline.

Holy shit. Had no idea what this was about until a full on campaign ad paid for by โ€œthe US governmentโ€ just showed up during the Seahawks game. Thereโ€™s so much to be pissed about but my mouth still fell open with this one.

I guess the hundreds of millions Republicans are getting from billionaires for ads in the midterms arenโ€™t enough so they are just going to steal taxpayer dollars to run more of them.

Project for Linear analysis: Pt1. Comparing the Jaccard Similarity of the same words in specialized models to generalized model. For specialized models I am using Law2Vec, Bio2Vec, and Code2Vec. If you have any additional recommendations let me know. Any specialized Word2Vec with 200 dimensions.

Pt2.For the generalized model I am using GloVe. Mainly because it has allot of variations. By comparing the Jaccard Similarity of these models we can look at what words differ in meaning from one model to the next. This is important when it comes to understanding the impact corpora has on a model.

Dashboard complete for the UFC Predictr, the prediction page is working but the endpoints are unstable. I made a dev dashboard to a get live status of the full app frontend to backend to diagnose the problem. Might be ready to launch by the end of the month. Emphasis on "might".

PSA: that new productivity app didnโ€™t change your life. You had already decided to change your life, which is why you downloaded a productivity app. The app was downstream of the decision. Youโ€™re crediting the speedometer for making the car go faster.

Any solo developers have experience making an API? I have a few questions. 1) How much revenue does the average API generate? 2) What kind of APIs are you developing/developed? 3) Does the market feel too saturated? Any additional tips or info is appreciated ๐Ÿ™ #dev #cs #api #csstudent #compsci

Ok, but what if you had an interactive map of the United States to allow crowd sourced reports of Town Hall meetings. Like the "report-a-cop" feature from Waze but for Town Halls.

I'm all for talking about politics, but if we spend as much time finding solutions as we do complaining about our administration we would be far more productive. I think we are paralyzed with shock, as we should be. But our "thoughts and prayers" are not enough, we need solutions. Organize.
