Graduated from CS with an ENTERPRISE GPA and got pressured by my recruiter to take my first offer literally the day after I put my resume on LinkedIn as a "Product Support Engineer" because it had "potential for a C# developer position." The interviewers shoved the contract in my face as soon as they could and being the autistic shut-in baby I am I meekly took the pen and signed it so they didn't get mad at me.
So the recruiter basically made 10 grand off of me in less than a week (25% of first year salary) and I got a job answering phones to pay off my $50k in student loans.
At least he paid for my $20 lunch, I guess.

>>19 Anal Touring is a technique where you take a TM that accepts two parameters, a machine and the starting tape, and wrap it in a machine that duplicates its single parameter and calls the first machine, and then you call that machine with itself as a parameter. That lets you find its fixed point(s) or prove that it doesn't exist.

I remember feeling awkward trying to tell recruiters I didn't want a job I had interviewed for. Sucks actually.
That's Western education for you. You get yourself into debt hell for a shitty education that you won't even need for a real job, then spend your life repaying the interest. Marriage, children? Not in the West. That's how the white race goes extinct: through oppressive bank and tax yoke.
>>38 I was too. My family was poor, but somehow my high school drop-out teenage parents scraped up $30K every year to send my sister and I to a rather expensive private school. The boys didn't bother me too much about my shitty cloths and the fact that my mom picked me up every day in a 10 year old car, but the girls were little snobby cunts. Luckily, most of the ones I kept up with turned into nigger lovers who are going to snort all of Daddy's money up their nose before 35 and have to turn tricks. Seemed like they were such hot shits back in the day, but most of their families were only rich because they happened to own land with oil beneath it, and I'd bet they are hurting right now.
What was the point of going to an expensive school if you grew up to be a porg-rammer? Stupid Westerners and their Expensive Education fetish. Negroes on the street don't go to any schools and they've got awesome physiques that get them pussy. Book smart doesn't cut it in the real world.
My first job was half 2nd line support, half reinvent-every-control ASP.NET, half bloated js, half shitty homegrown graphical flowchart language, and half shitty query language on top of a thin wrapper around ESENT.

>>41 Why did Philip of Macedonia have Alexander the Great waste all that time having him educated by Aristotle when he was already a prince and could have been drown in that sweet, sweet eunuch catamite boipussy. Little Alex was also completely uninterested in the Olympic games, that fucking nerd.
On the other hand, Alexander did more by age 20 than every nigger that has ever lived combined. Philip wanted his son to be able to do better things than him, that's why he get him an education (and gave him what was probably the best army on earth at the time).
If that was put into even the most safest and and low-yield investments, you could have retired living on passive income before getting your first job. There's a reason your family is poor.

>>45 Not really that much. $15K per kid, so $7.5K per semester, so that's about what I paid for college. But anyway, my family is rich now. My dad worked eighty hour weeks and we ate beans and rice all the time so they could start their own business and they got that sweet, sweet oil money. Not bad for teenaged parents, and it makes me feel like garbage whoring my mind out to ENTERPRISE codemonkey bullshit make-work garbage and hemorrhaging money on stupid spending and bad investments.
But alas, the Jew giveth and the Jew taketh away.

>>52 No, it wouldn't. It takes $1.56M to be able to get a thousand a week from T-bonds, so 120k is like $76 per week. That may be good if you're a dirty brown person or some sort of gross slav, but that's chump change for a proud white man.

>>55 You could move to a shittier country where things are cheaper. You could buy things and hope things get better so it increases in value, and if it doesn't, then things are still cheap, so it's a win-win. I can't see any downsides to doing that, so long as you are okay with living in a nigger infested country where people routinely sell their children to foreign degenerates for money, but I did drink a bottle of cough syrup half an hour ago so I could be wrong.
A language without loops or recursion isn't a programming language, either.
>>30 Their statement was limited to developed countries, where a lot of the cost of children comes from having to fund their education. But in developing third-world countries, education is less important, unskilled labor is needed, so having large families is actually beneficial.
Ecssentially CSS is like an esoteric programming language with a practical value.

I was going to quit after my current project this year (porting some shitty title from console to mobile), and go on a spiritual journey into the countryside for a year or more, but after Pokemon Go came out, two days later, me and one other programmer got a significant raise. Not joking. We're the only ones who were called into the office seperately. We both have computer vision experience.
I think it's because they realized that ARG is going to be bigger than they thought, and after Pokemon dies down, there will be room for competition to enslave more normies and turn them into zombies.
It's quite generous, can't really turn it down. In the bread and circus industry, if you don't do it, somebody else will.

Augmented Reality is virtual reality for normies. An autist fucking anime waifus in full VR gear is socially unacceptable unlike the smartphone zombies.
We both have computer vision experience.
Seems like this "vision" will be through a chinese phone camera and using all of CPU/GPU on the phone. Ask yourself, what justifies that much use of battery life?

>>65 Justification? When you think about it, what justifies allowing normies, who produce no real net value in the world, to breathe air and consume food? After all, the wealth they believe they generate actually comes from the same place the wealth ends up. The normies don't matter, only the flow of wealth matters. Civilization is just one big ARG for the elite.
In the end, the only reason normies are allowed to exist is so that those with real intellect may stand apart from them.

Real power is not within code monkeys, its within the company owners and CEOs that dictate what code monkeys will do for the green paper. You're essentially a modern scribe, replaceable gear in the machine that obeys all whims of the operator.
