@var_epsilon I cold applied online for my internship there and feel like it was extremely rare, unicorn case
English
this was how I got my google internship in 2021 actually. really unique program, having enough search queries like "dependency injection" or "mutex lock" would show you this popup and you had to solve a series of 5 challenges to automatically get an interview
excited for whatever the next iteration of this looks like with claude code/codex!

In the early-mid 2010s, if your search history was really good, Google would automatically invite you to foo bar and solving that would get you an interview at Google Now, if your agent history is really good on GStack, YC will (soon) automatically fill your YC application and that would get you into YC YC is the agent native YC

@KnownSimply @ImAureus @GentleDoofus how are you judging for this list? i'm kinda confused what the qualifier is
English
@ImAureus @GentleDoofus This isn’t a knock on Leo btw. He’s still an all time Great. But in terms of a pure dramatic leading man stage and film: Denzel takes that honor. He’s follows the mold of Sidney Poitier, John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart.
English
It speaks to Denzel's power that he might have the worst filmography on average out of the four, but there's basically no question that he's #1

@srslywhocares1 @cookingcrazy @Mlu__N2 tbf 15-20 bucks every week for a year would be 2% of her gross income
English
@cookingcrazy @Mlu__N2 You think someone making 52K can’t pay 15-20 dollars on coffee a week?
English
People really need to realize that many native New Yorkers live on this income or around it. Most influencers are transplants that make astronomical amounts. Love to see content like this!

@beautaplin @missionman__ @FatherMcKennaa @somewhat_rotten tbf it did take me a bit to find one that summed to 55 LOL

Haha brilliant (the 7 should be a 6 but it literally does resolve to 55)—well, ‘that’s Life: {5}’ as they say. 😂

The word "psychedelic" was invented during a poetry battle.
Aldous Huxley proposed "phanerothyme" with the line:
"To make this mundane world sublime, take half a gram of phanerothyme."
Psychiatrist Humphry Osmond countered:
"To fathom Hell or soar angelic, just take a pinch of psychedelic."
Osmond won. He debuted the word at the New York Academy of Sciences in 1957.
We almost ended up calling them "phanerothymes."

It works on literally every alphabetical language, actually. If you’re too stupid to know what a clear semantic pattern is, move along—or, I’m pleased to keep using you as an opportunity to share more for non-morons out there.
Let’s take the first ten digits of Pi (π):
3.1415926535
3+1+4+1+5+9+2+6+5+3={39}
Now, did you know the ancients would divide 22 by 7 for a close approximation of Pi?
TWENTY TWO
2+5+5+5+2+7+2+5+6={39}
I wonder if any other ‘circle-like’ words show up on the {39} frequency?
Oh, they do (not the whole list but don’t want to overwhelm you).
{39}: Creation|Expression: {3} crossing {+} into Universal Wisdom|Completion: {9} resolving to {12}: Unity|Initiation: {1} crossing {+} into Duality|Relation: {2} resolving to Creation|Expression: {3} (i.e. ‘a perfect circle’)

Would not say PTA is in the late stage of his career at all lol Scorsese at his age still had yet to direct 11 of his 27 films
MusChampion@Less_HumbleTeej
I love this. We are seeing the late stages of careers like Spielberg, Marty, PTA We are in the era of the Cooglers, Nolans, Denis Eggers, Yorgos, Ari making the weirdest possible films and are showing how far they are willing to push limits Chazelle has never missed

Contrary to popular belief, the high unemployment rate for CS grads is less due to AI replacing jobs and more due to the massive volume of incompetent new grads who just cheated their way to their degree using Chegg and AI and probably can’t even solve FizzBuzz without ChatGPT

I cannot stress enough how absolutely cooked CS, Soft Eng, Comp Eng and basically any tech/IT major is. Literally no one in my cohort bothers to write their own code anymore. People just hand in labs that are fully vibecoded and pass with grades above 90% and the profs do NOTHING
English
English
@tuckerisonx @maerdtoof Do you ever use AI agents to code? They’re useful the same way spellcheck is useful. Spell and grammar check obv didn’t replace editors, right?
AI isn’t replacing people. AI is making it an easier decision to fire the poorly skilled person and give the skilled person their work

@ariadotwav @Srt_platinum med school and law school are not easy money, swe is most definitely still easy money
as long as you do the bare minimum extracurricular work you can get 100k salary on graduation quite easily

@Srt_platinum CS hasn't been the go to for easy money since like 2022 you're rlly late to the party. If you want guaranteed money go into med school or law school

@matcharistretto @camliekr this graph doesn't reflect varying degrees of regret, and online discourse amplifies degree of regret 10x

im more curious as to why so many people regret knee replacement

@darkdefective @deedledodedum @shmntiorps @rgbinOmaha @WillyDiBa7 @Joan_Atoms how does the first point relate to the bad priorities point? just because you can afford something doesn't mean you should be buying it
food delivery is a blatant waste of money, especially if 2%(!) of your income is going towards it
English
@deedledodedum @shmntiorps @rgbinOmaha @WillyDiBa7 @Joan_Atoms I think people don’t realise that it’s by design poor people are able to afford things like ordering food or electronics, but buying a house is impossible.
This rhetoric of poor people having bad priorities is really a myth.

Girl on $20k a year 1.7% of that is only like 5 doordash orders. 😭

“People earning less than $50k order the most delivery & spend the most on delivery.” But I was told by leftist twitter that the only ppl ordering food delivery were rich ppl who wanted a burrito taxi! Not poor/disabled ppl struggling to make ends meet theargumentmag.com/p/whos-really-…

@__Siffa @arianapsarakou @samsheffer This is an A chip versus an M chip. The A18 Pro is in the iPhone 16 Pro. M’s are only in Macs/iPads. She’s right.

@livevergreenx @Derrytonevl3 @0rang3youglad well when the theater experience is upwards of $50 just for a ticket, popcorn, and a drink it’s no wonder people prefer their own homes 🤷🏽♀️ theaters, same with live music, have become luxuries which is not sustainable for the arts longterm
English
have to be incredibly immature to not grasp that ballet and opera are very old world arts with very niche followings and that's exactly what he fears happening to movies, not because it says anything about the quality of the art, but about the interest people have in it.

Looks like @cluely is almost fully out of money. they have removed all affiliates other than @im_roy_lee and @neelyweely23. Those badges cost $50 a month. I think they're spending too much on engineers since most of them have the original $400k pay package. They now pay 40% less

@ViscResponse @arachno_commie @i_am_karchies yeah it's unfair but the claim was "more critically acclaimed material than Chalamet"
English
@arachno_commie @i_am_karchies It's almost like there are significantly fewer roles available to Black actors. But also, you forgot Killmonger on Black Panther.

Chalamet has been in way more critically acclaimed material

MBJ has been acting for way longer & in more critically acclaimed material than Chalamet. So in what actual reality would it be an injustice for him to win before Chalamet?
