 Astrology is a science...which I agree some ppl have no knowledge about it.  
  
 There were good astrologers in back era.... Whose predictions became true.

If I am not mistaken, the kundali matching use similar algos in machine learning. If our ancestors used complex algos, they did not do it on random planetary motion I presume?

Welcome to Software Engineers's Private Community

All over LinkedIn when I see people thanking their mentors, I wonder where they get them.
I mean I hardly had any interactions with any of my college seniors. And don't get me started on my office colleagues. ( They always seem to be in a bad mood).
Coming to the point. I think having honest mentors can really help you fast track your developer career.
Let's try to help each other out.
I am a backend developer of 2 years. I can help you get 20 LPA.
I want someone who can help me earn 30 LPA.


PS - This is my first post.

Mentorship

Software Developer

intervue.io (they were in shark tank s3)

Had signed up on the platform sometimes back, Got my profile approved as well. But didn’t take interviews as the monitory benefits seemed too low to me. 


Anyone who is currently interviewing candidates for them, please share your experience.

Anyone here currently an interviewer with intervue.io?

finally we know why!!

Welcome to Personal Finance's Private Community

Hello folks. While I'd like to remain anonymous very much, here's what I can share about myself.

1. Working in consumer finance.
2. Love personal finance and helping people out with it.
3. Have published 10,000+ pieces of financial content in the mainstream media.
4. Wrote a best-selling book on money management. It was No. 1 on Amazon once upon a time. 
5. Lately been appearing on TV regularly for personal finance discussions.
6. Saved like crazy through my 20s and 30s, brought two apartments; have an 8-figure net worth mostly thanks to my mutual fund investments. It's not much but it's hard-earned.
7. My unrealised aspiration is travel and I'm working on it now.

No, I'm not selling anything. No commissions, no referral links, no finfluencing. 

Just want to talk, exchange ideas, and learn from you all. Maybe I'll feature you in my next book. :)

Ask me anything.

Let's talk money habits.

Corporate Strategist

I don’t understand what the point really was 

- companies with a bad product are still struggling 
- companies with a good product are still growing
- rent in Bangalore, Mumbai is still sky high 
- salaries are still high, people are still asking for more 
- food is expensive as ever 
- stock prices of companies that fired people never really went up 

Someone make any sense or any of this?

Layoffs were a total failure at changing anything

#cricket #yoyotest #viratkohli In this video, we will be looking into the most common fitness test taken by cricketers.0:00 What Is YoYo Test0:35 Setting Up ...

I Tried Cricketer's Yo Yo Test - Not Easy to Beat Kohli.

Today I finally understood what the YoYo test is

Are we ruined to the core? I get this question often when I see VIP cultures in our religious places, especially temples. Before “any” brigade jumps over me. The temple culture in question is “Ram Janambhoomi, Ayodhya”. 

On one side our PM claims he wants to remove VIP culture, other side they have VIP culture/lane exploited in Ayodhya. I understand some “busy” individuals need to accelerate through temple queues because they have important work to complete. Here the discrimination is at the next level, in the VIP lane gutkha stuffed people can take phones, and pose selfies and in “cattle class” you can’t even carry phones. No, I don’t need selfies for myself but it looks a bit weird when a particular class is allowed to do so in a sanctimonious place😂 

Looks like the security threat comes from the class itself🤨

P.S. - I don't have any place other than this to rant/complain about. So, feel free to suggest.

[Rant]VIP culture at Temples!

Product Manager

Bro finally understood the assignment

Young SWE start with double digit salaries, while someone in Non tech will need 5-10 years to reach that level
Even the business roles, the direct revenue generating roles don't pay good traditionally

Funny how techies think everyone gets paid similar
A lot of it changed with startups trying to acquire talent, but not sustainable
Because the market simply doesn’t pay

How do non tech compete with this skewed demand-supply chain?

Tech and Non tech Pay Partiality is something no one talks about

Engineers deserve their pay.  
  
 1 - The code that engineers write are assets of a company. The code might keep running and serving customers for years after a engineer has probably even left the company.  
 On the other hand, the work that most non-tech folks do are not assets, but an operational expense.  
  
 Companies don't derive benefit of a non-tech even beyond the same month the work is performed.  
  
 The difference is the same as painting your house vs brushing your teeth. You don't paint your house everyday but you do brush your teeth. Painting here is a long lasting asset, adds to the value of the house. Brushing is necessary work but with ultimately perishable benefits.  
  
 2 - Code that engineers write provide non-linear benefits. A team of 30 in Zerodha were able to serve 3-5x more customers in the pandemic. This same scalability does not apply to non-tech majdoori. Business has scaled? Hire more heads. Not with code. 
  
  
 Obviously above does not apply to senior managerial folks who build and architect the organisation, set the cultures, create processes. The impact of their work is long lasting and non-linear. But work of junior business non-tech folks - well, they're getting paid as much as the value they create. Low leverage, low pay. Coding is very high leverage. 
  
 Before you jump on me, I worked for sales in years. Then shifted to product. Above two points are a reality whether you like it or not.

Welcome to Office Gossip's Private Community

I have changed 2 jobs in last 3 years. What should be answer to the question for why are u looking for the change so frequently?

Why are you looking for the change?

Finance Operations

As per what most people would say is Energy and that is fine but if it is receiving energy where is it going all? We can’t be using all of it at least not all of it.

Law of Conservation of Energy states that ”Energy can neither be created nor destroyed; rather, it transforms from one form to another”.

Earth should have been a lot hotter of all converters in some way to heat, right? Then what do we actually get from Sun?

This was a real puzzler hiding in plain sight.

Go and watch the video on YT
I know you have nothing better to do on a Sunday😂

The Most Misunderstood Concept in Physics

What does Earth receive from Sun?

Context: 

I was reading a post where the OP mentioned verifying fake internships, but how is that even possible? Wouldn't they verify with the companies? I can understand faking a PoR, but even that should be difficult. Faking any kind of internship should be nearly impossible. It might be possible to craft a convincing story, but if they conduct a background check, it will be exposed, regardless of how believable the story is.

And OP is from IIM-C!!!

How is it even possible to fake work experience?

I can't seem to relate to much of the non-FAANG junta out there. I mean I have a cushy job with probably 0.1% pay of all SWEs(pretty much like all of us do). But these cookie-cutter roles have been taking a mental toll on me. Like I am getting paid but I feel a little purpose-less. What am I gunning for in this life? 

All my life I wanted to go to a good college to get into a good company. In college I wanted to get a good codeforces rank so that I could get into FAANG. Now that I am in FAANG I have nothing to look forward to. 

Any of you all feeling this way? Because I don't see myself offer-shopping and feeling much happy about that either.

Feeling depressed at Amazon(2YOE/41L CTC). Anyone else feeling the same way?

Recently watched Soul on hotstar and this actually makes sense now. The character was trying hard to perform in front of a crowd and  when it happened he wasn't feeling any change at all. At that time, he was told about the fish and the ocean story :-  
  
 I heard this story about a fish. 
  
 He swims up to an older fish and says, “I’m trying to find this thing they call ‘the ocean.'” 
  
 “The ocean? the older fish says, “That’s what you’re in right now.” 
  
 “This?” says the young fish. “This is water. What I want is the ocean!”

Uber designers (or PMs) why are you trying to get rid of the ride search cancel button? Found a ride faster and cheaper ride on Namma Yatri but can't cancel until Uber decides it's ok to do so! 

Won't be surprised if this leads to accidental bookings and shifting the onus on the rider to pay a "cancellation" fee. 

Why chase vanity metrics at the expense of the user experience? Switchers gonna switch.

Uber dark UX pattern

People at A want to move to B, because culture at A is bad and B seems good. 

People at B want to move to C, because culture at B is bad and C seems good. 

People at C want to move to D, because culture at C is bad and D seems good. 

And finally

People at D want to move to A, because culture at D is bad and A seems good. 

Includes everything from Google, Atlassian, PhonePe, Swiggy, Microsoft, Amazon and everyone. 

People leave mainly because of their managers. Or people just want a reason to switch and get a hike. Or just want not to miss out on fomo at other companies.

Culture went bad?

Welcome to News Discussion's Private Community

We've really come full circle

For me it has happened a lot and I am grateful for most of the times it has happened.

How many times has this happened to you?

Doston, I'm a 26 year old, run-of-the-mill MBA grad who has just been coasting through life until a very recent and intense encounter with the perils of modern life. 

Background brief: 
Academics : 8/5/8; MBA from NMIMS Mumbai
~2yrs of work ex in sales; have worked in financial sales, currently working in non-alco bev sales
  
I have very few hard skills and am not sure where to start. Still, I'm seduced by other lucrative jobs/profiles such as finance, PM, consulting, which feel inaccessible at this point. I've accepted that there's nothing I can do to change the past, but I'm seeking guidance on how to shape my career from this point forward. Looking forward to any advice about jobs, career planning, and even life. Thank you!

Now it all makes sense.
