Go to Cambridge. If you already have an Amazon offer at your skill level, with extra education it's going to be easy to have something similar or even better. Besides, those types of opportunities come rarely in one's life you have to have the correct amount of free time and the ability to take them. Working for a corporation can wait.

This is great! Really good work. It reminds me of working in a SmallTalk environment and coding inside the debugger while an exception is being thrown and restarting the computation.
I believe that this path can be supported as it is right now, and the next step would be to store a computation on some server. If an uncaught exception is raised, store all the computation along with the state, transfer it to your local machine, and restore the state of the machine as it was when the exception was thrown. This way, you can debug the state of the program with all the live variables as it was being run.
Probably it's because we are not training them anymore and just using with prompts. Seems like more of a swe regular type of job
One of the best parts about Pomodoro it's that the few first session for me are about struggling with the anxiety that the work gives me. The idea behind is that the anxiety peaks and drops off rapidly in the first or second period, so just thinking that battling against the anxiety is actually work and time boxing it achieves great results
I don't know if there is a number somewhere but me and most of my peers that live in Latin America that achieve certain level of proficiency we all work for Us or Europe and not for our local economies
seems like you are overcompensating with work for some kind of anxiety problem, try therapy and find out why you always work so hard even when you don't want to.
those are pretty good recommendations. I would start at stage 2.
Most of the time this story is true, but think this way, the person that was using the system was an expert on the subject. If you can replace the expert with a person just looking at a graph from time to time to know if you have to irrigate the soils it's a different thing. Most of the data or ML tools show us something that the client as an expert already knows, but the true power of this tools is to give them to a non expert user and have roughly the same level of proficiency
You can always get the federal state as a last term buyer if nobody wants the land.
depends, but you fine tune the whole thing, check ulmfit paper and fastai libs
What i did a couple of years algo is to approach a research lab of your interest, get in touch and try to get involved in a line of work of the lab, that usually means to work with some phd candidates, a postdoc or some junior researchers. If You stick around You should be on subject in a couple of months and ou can even get your name in some papel. You shouldn't be expecting the same involvment of a phd student, so you should keep showing up and trying to add value to the labs projects
look for a new job or gather all the stakeholders, tell them that the way are pushing the team doesn't work at all, if you concede to work weekends nobody is going to reward you they maybe even be angry at you!
If you want to change the direction of the project and only if you want you because is a lot of work you should state your demands, negotiate a better compensation and only start after they put their money and compromise on the table, if not, you will get crushed and discarded and frankly is not worth it. My suggestion is that you shouldn't do a retrospective at the end of the project, you should stop it now, if they want to complete the project they should put skin on the game and not just pushing people to work harder.
there was an article that stated that almost all software is written by jr professionals because as you improve your skills you just working more with people that writing programs, so I suppose that the reasoning of this is that companies knows this and unless you are in the small set of really tech oriented companies it doesn't really matter whats your skill level is.
I thing that the average is for generic marketing campaigns, At my work we have between 5-15 ctr on emails, just because the content is noteworthy
The moment that clicked for me was when a professor told us that there is just few ways to prove theorems and thats it.

If You have 10000 posts that You have to sort it in some way and the user just going to see 20 of those, the sorting is the recommendation system, people are just used to think of products, movies and songs, but in those platforms the users are the products
all feeds are recommendations systems, instagram, facebook, twitter, tiktok, youtube, every single one is a recommendation system.
Some way to companies to buy a server as an apliance to serve as a homepage and allá their internet nerds, just plug it yo tour network, setup tour domain and thats it
I live in a country with crónica inflation (argentina) and the fact is the norm is if tour employer doesnt give a raise ay least that cover the inflation the market forces Will intercede and You are going to start interviewing in others companies.
Yes, My last Job was part time about 30hs a week, I had every friday off, I was more productive than ever. I'm a Ic with 15 years of experience in the industry
You have two options, If you have a good manager just say that you just want to keep the same volume of work to be done and that will be all.
If you have a bad manager just lie, say that the work is hard enough, that its challenging maintaining a codebase up to date, that you are interested in this kind of work, that there is lots of work to be done, documenting, making tests, replacing old parts with newer parts and that you see your future being an expert in that kind of tasks.
Usually there is a kind of trade off between being responsible for a piece of software and the amount of work to be done on that project.
So you mean smalltalk or lisp?
I'm from Argentina too and I feel your pain, Its really hard to just not be seen as a cheap engineer, I hope you get what you deserve!
My current employer is so a company like indeed, indeed works for industries outside of tech were is a buyer's market.
Tech is a seller's market and LinkedIn is s better shopping window for this kind of market, so all your future jobs are listed in LinkedIn.
Don't know at the executive level, I'm pretty sure that market move trough private channels and in limited times trough a public one.
I have every quarter a salary review to match inflation
Yes, every single year, but I'live in Argentina, so we are really accustomed to
Alan Kay said that the best way to invent the future it's imagining and work the steps backwards. So I would probably imagine what's an 250mm acquisition and start writing notes of how one would look like and then imagine all the steps back to the present.
I'm convinced that if you want a job, you don't have to be the person that its only being interviewed, you must sell your self as the programmer that they need, if you cant convince them that you are the one for the job, you should try to understand what are yours strengths or just to find people that have the same values as you.
The problem with Blackberry for me it was the bad dev ecosystem that you had, poor documentation, hidden features, some nice ideas like OTA updates that were replaced with stuff like play stores, the need for the carriers to connect to RIM to make some use of the vpns, etc
When it worked was really nice, but the dev exp wasn't pleasurable at all
