Well I had zero interest in going through the lemmy code until this msg.

Nighty night. Don't let the bed bugs bite.
Beef short rib with a Jamaican jerk sauce from the UK, and beef brisket with a BBQ sauce from North Carolina.
Today I've also done a BBQ with burgers, mushrooms, sweet corn, zucchini, capsicum, meat skewers and probably more that I've forgot because the brisket still isn't done :/
Pic of one of the short ribs for you (used apple wood and wet with beer, absolutely delicious):
Completely agreed on the practical aspect, but if you're going for big San Fran cloud companies you'll likely need to pass a leetcode challenge in the interview (pointless IMO) which means you better understand in detail low level data structures and algorithms. You'll never need that detail day to day, but barrier to entry.
Haha :D Sorry mate, I couldn't resist as I'm incredibly bored outside watching temps on a smoker, as I have been doing for coming on 7-8 hours now.
It's definitely an awesome find though!
Great cover story, but what does it smell like?
Nah, this is just another experimental cook. I'm trying to learn a new skill and add a twist at the same time.
My mates hate that I do this and don't tell them in advance though lol
Completely agreed that it's not a golden ticket, it's only useful if it's a benchmark to entry kind of degree. You're not walking in to a hedge fund without one and zero experience unless you have connections. Degree and zero experience will work. Uni also helps build connections and foster independence (read: when hiring I don't want to hire a child, I want an adult with opinions).
Also the cost can be mitigated, e.g. go study in Scotland and return even more independent and free thinking.
Masters and PhD though IMO are purely if you're passionate about something that can't be learnt on the job and have time/money to burn.
I can only speak for CompSci, although when hiring I don't give a shit if someone has the degree as I'd prefer to teach and have someone asking interesting/left of field questions - but lots of hiring people do care though and test you on the fundamentals.
Very easy money.
Party at yours? Let us know if they're taking orders.
Going to Uni does also delay the lifelong 9-5 grind, I'd recommended it based purely on that, but you do get a piece of paper at the end that can give you a leg up and maybe more money if you picked something useful.
Red Magic 9 Pro user here, it has a headphone jack and is a beast of a phone and comparatively cheap.
I could not possibly recommend it more highly. I no longer have to charge my phone every day and when I do charge it it's done in less than 30 mins, performance is insane for a phone.
It's a gaming phone, and so is also like having a Nintendo switch in your pocket for nearly half the price of the latest Samsung / Pixel / iPhone, whilst it blitz's day to day stuff.
You don't have to ever use the gaming mode btw, there's a literal physical slider on the side to enable it. It feels like a 2000s gamer designed their dream modern portable device that's primarily a phone.
Do check it out!
