I knew this girl a few years ago and she was honestly one of the dumbest computer science students I've ever met. People had to help her with almost everything. This, and she was a shrilly bitch who wouldn't stop complaining about discrimination. She once complained to a professor because a male TA gave her a bad grade for a midterm, even though her code didn't work. Apparently she's interning with Google now, and she insists it has nothing to do with the fact that she had a vagina.

Women in CS are even worse than poo in loos. Jesus Christ, I hope this women contracts Ebola. This is why we need another holocaust.

That field is already lost, is going to be the next sociology or some shit like that.

You will soon find that women are creating feminist compilers or some shit because C/C+/C++/Whatever is misogynistic or some shit.

more women in stem is a very good thread

the dating pool after undergrad is fucking terribad. choose one: autistic woman, fetal alcohol syndrome woman, woman who doesn't speak english, married woman.

that's it. people who complain about this shit are obviously buttblasted undergrads who think they didn't get into some summer school because women took their place

Women at any workplace are useless. They delegate all their tasks and are completely helpless when it comes to making decisions and undependable in terms of giving you support.

Women, like some minorities (blacks mainly), don't mix well with the work environment. The fact that they're infiltrating so many of our companies and institutions just shows you how close we are to the ultimate societal collapse.

Mechanical engineer here. Most women in ME go into bull shit administrative "engineering" positions. They can do the math, but they can't do the engineering or bridge concepts at all.

I'd suggest you drop ruby. Others are solid. I'd learn python first just to get some general programming concepts, then I'd focus on JS. Learn angular/react, express, node (all JS), become familiar with MongoDB then start making web apps.

There are no mandatory C++ classes. Almost every class uses Java instead, and those are slowly switching to Python.

VLSI and HDL are not even considered parts of CS anymore. It's EE or that new field, computer engineering.
We will eventually make C equivalent be some sort of microcode that is only generated by the CPU and let higher level languages concepts like objects, functions and closures into assembly in some new amd64 instruction extension set.
It's possible and I'm afraid it's the way to go in the future.

I only see female tech artists learning python, we never even see programmers who have touched c++ beyond 25-30y/o white male backend engineers.

The best you can hope for on a resume is c#, with "project experience"

Women we employ, always, without fail, need a strict task sheet, and oversight. They are incapable of being given an input API, and required output (structs, events, etc).
You pretty much have to give them pseudo-code, that you could flesh out in a damn week, as a month long task.

Not at all worth it. If you don't have a MS or PhD in EE/CompE no one will hire you for those skills. It's better than nothing and shows that you're capable of doing things other than KVL/KCL but that's kinda it.

Also, if you're having trouble finding jobs, look for quantitative analyst positions instead. I did EE+CS and I ended up crunching numbers for a local real estate development firm. I made $74k a year when I started and now make $88k a year two years in. You'd be surprised how many employers in the financial sector would jizz themselves over hiring an EE. Off the bat, you're more qualified to crunch numbers than any business/econ/math major.

Sadly my experience of CS is that you have to learn yourself. The way CS is taught is a fucking disgrace. I suppose everyone any good in the field fucked off to earn a load of money in tech and only the shit ones stay to teach it.

OP I went for an interview down in philly there was 3 people including myself for a mid level .NET job

You could hear all the question being asked. The first guy went in stammered a bit but knew his shit. The lady went in did not know anything. Blatantly told them she had never worked with any technologies she was using and only had off hand experience as she was a tester prior

At the second round of interviews it was me and her.

I ended up getting the job offer but turning it down. Went in to say hi and pass some contact info for a friend who would be perfect and she's there she got the job.

I just ended up leaving without even seeing anyone.

The female managers I've had needed to be managed as they always made themselves hyper ventilate at any task no matter the difficulty often pinned the work on others.

Hell had one female co-worker who would work late. I'd help her out on occassion. And eventually she got promoted for seeming hard working when in fact she had no idea what she was doing.

Women in CS is like having a fine vase that you use to store coins.

Note: that is on average, the best developer I've met was a woman, hideous truly terrifying but a woman none the less. And she never climbed up the rank despite that.

There's also a very cool evaluation board by Actel with their Smartfusion IC, it has both ARM Cortex-M3 core and FPGA for you to poke.

I won't lie. My undergrad degree came from a relatively shit-tier school, but I worked my ass off to get it and did a bunch of extramural research and training. I recently signed an offer to go back for a graduate degree at a respectable state school STEM program.

Several non-white women in my program who were also good students, but didn't have nearly as much experience or training as myself, were easily accepting multiple offers from Top 25 schools and were talking about having to choose between 4-5 of them. I was accepted to only the program I am attending and it was really a weird thing to make sense of.

I use some basic calc stuff like accumulating interest but that's basically as hard as it gets.

It was very tedious using Excel, but I get all my work for the day done in like an hour or two using Python and end up watching anime on my phone the rest of the day while I pretend to be busy. It's a pretty good life.

The hard part of finance (Option/Derivative pricing) isn't covered in undergrad econ. You'd need to either get a PhD in Financial Economics or study for the actuarial exams (Specifically Exam MFE).

This 100%. The paper is just a certificate saying you can apply yourself over the long term (I guess).

Yes, electrical engineering. The fact that you have to learn PDEs for wave propagation means you know higher level math than every econ major. Also, EE degrees typically require a ton of higher level math courses that are typically tailored to teach you how to apply them. At my university, engineers took a special linear algebra and ODE course for example.

They study way less math than we do. They also don't derive it or anything, they just learn it or take it from regression models.

you dont learn "real" (kinda no true scotsman, but really for CS and stuff like this it seriously matters) CS/programming.

Creating a compiler is relatively complicated. Given that your average bitch has trouble with the basics of object orientation, I don't think women are smart enough to pull this off.

no. devs like to cry about python because you don't have to reinvent the wheel every 5 seconds. they like to feel superior to others because they know the 50 nuanced rules of type conversion in C++, and you don't need to know that.
When you just need something done quick and dirty you can save 75% of the development time using Python. the cost is a slower program, but for plenty of applications that doesn't matter.

Should say duct tape, my bad, but yes. We get to the wedding, it's at this old cathedral that had been renovated. It had a pit, like a musical pit, in the center, that could be opened for a choir or a small chamber group.
The thing was, there were no lights in this pit, because I guess cracking that bitch open to run wires was too complex/expensive.
Anytime someone has to so much as pick a wedgie, we pulled out that light, to see where cases, chairs, miss, and other paraphernalia were located. I decide I can't shift around at the break with no light, slip, and put the corner of a chair through the back of my bass.

Would advise to stay away from the big banks, its too regulated. Asset management is the way to go if you want to go to the street

It's pretty boring desu, but the bills aren't gonna pay themselves.

Also what do you mean by the big banks being too regulated? We do a lot of business with Wells Fargo so just curious.
>>
>>76591602
ya, bills and debt is what drives the world.

Basically banking as a whole is really regulated, from the retail/commercial side to the invest banking/ trading side (where I spent most of my time in).

Retail banking is traditionally not the most profitable aspect of the bank, as the margins are low and theres high competition. Same goes with most commercial operations (theres some exceptions).

Both are needed, because those customers store their money, which helps with the banks CCAR and capital requirements.
More deposited money, more loans the bank can give out, before they were able to trade (they cannot now because of volker).
Will get to the regulations in a second, but lets talk about the bigger margins.

Most of the money at a bank is generated by institutional clients (very large companies, think AMEX, VISA, GE, Pension Funds, Insurance companies).
These firms have a lot of capital and a lot of unique needs such as transferring Euro to USD vice versa, complex hedging of foreign or cash assets/investments etc, buying out competitors etc.
All of these types of transactions are very complex (buy outs, hedging etc) or they do a lot of volume (FX transactions etc). Because they are complex and banks make the most profit from these transactions. Plus pre doddfrank, banks were able to use their own funds to trade for speculation, which also increased their profits

Part 2
Pretty much large firms is what drove profits. But the real cash cows were the pension funds, teachers unions and insurance companies, because all they had was large amounts of cash and they needed it in the very far future.
What kills me is that everyone thinks banks are evil because they caused the crisis by serving their wealthy clients, but in reality majority of the risky products were sold to the high cash institutions mentioned above.
As stated, they had high cash and a predictable amount of expenses and cash coming in, and use the cash for something so they deal a lot with speculation and investing. Why not, they have low expenses and why not make some extra money for them and hit their clients obligations (cases such as mutual funds where the funds have to hit a certain benchmark) They would either buy asset management products, but they also would buy risky stuff such as MBS, FX swaps etc, all these products were complex and off market meaning they were all unique deals. Which was amazing for the banks as they made killer margins on those.

Regulations:
World exploded because of the systemic risk that occurred and these OTC products didnt go through any clearing house etc.
So banks now cannot trade for them self's, have to have more cash in reserves. This caused a lot of the banks to sell of their derivative business, especially commodities to investment frims/houses such as Bungee, Black Rock etc.
banks now have to report more and more of their trades which increases expenses etc, while investment funds/houses took over their old business, and book the trades through the bank and the bank is responsible for a lot of the regulatory reporting and may get fined.
And banks have to do money laundering compliance for every trade/client.

Just like any affirmative action practice, it hurts the real driven ones.

My gf has her B.S. in chem. She actually helped me in our advanced o-chem class. She knows her shit, as do her other female friends, which are also in STEM. She has like 3 friends. All the other women in her major are retarded and literally suck dick for grades (one girl fucked some guy for homework help and answers to previous midterms.)

It sucks because now she's lumped in with all the other grrrrls in STEM. It hurts the people that actually try.

It's why I check "white" when I fill out the forms, despite being Mexican. I'm not a fucking token, and I don't need to be pandered to. It's frustrating because I know she has experienced what I have. People think she just got it for being a woman, which isn't true.

Part 3, last one


Short story is this, banks are soo regulated now they have to bare a lot of the risk and cost of trading and reporting for clients. Margins are very tight now because of the capital requirements, high amount of competition between banks and investment houses, slow down in trading businesses, and an increase in compliance costs.

Banks are becoming more of asset managers/utilities now than anything else.
A lot of the old timers are complaining that its too PC, and not as fun, which is true. But its a good stepping stone to being exposed to a lot of products and smart people (depending on the firm)

This is why women complain about a wage gap. It really pisses me off that for men they took roughly 1/16 of those who applied but for women they took like 1/4 who applied.

Yeah, it's because Python gives for teaching CS concepts without getting too tangled up in implementation detail.

You can learn C++ any time when you know Python isn't gonna scratch it. That's the best motivation to learn.

Sure, dont mind, whats your throw away mail.

Only advise is avoid that place, their name is slowly being tarnished. But if you do go there, watch out there is a lot of in fighting right now because of the heavily compressed margins. Also depends if your FO, MO, FICC etc

Maybe, but honestly C/C++ isn't too difficult to learn when all you need is basic branching/loops/functions. Typing is a really important concept, and Python doesn't clearly highlight it, and I'd argue it's the same for memory management and pointers. These are all concepts you're going to need to be aware of from the beginning if you're going to do anything serious, even if your preferred language is going to handle these things for you.

I understand that a lot of the "boiler plate" in C/C++ might be scary to newcomers, but if you can't surmount it you really have no future i n programming. For basic stuff like "program a console based calculator", C/C++ isn't that daunting.

I had to take a required programming class in college and most of the students who got an A were girls. They never acted stupid or tried to get someone to do the work for them either. This wasn't even their intended majors so I was kinda surprised how well put they all were. It pains me to see this though, knowing there are actual *average* women who can understand CS as opposed to the feminazis, "look at me", attention whores who have no idea what they're doing.

That was the closest thing that we had to a girl in most of my programming classes. These days there are 3 girls in my classes, all normal non-sluts. Only one is less than decent when it comes to the material.

Tranny's are all fucking egotistical fuck wads, my GF dated a guy who changed over and let me tell you if this fucking mutation isn't simply the most hypocritical piece of human garbage I've ever met. Literally, the fucking thing treats me like shit everytime I talk to it, like I fucking abuse it or something.

I'm a tolerant guy, but sometimes the fucking mentally disabled being that it is tries to push my fucking buttons, I swear.

All it does is act like its the fucking god almighty when it comes to computers, and if you don't know exactly how your fucking rig works apparently your stupid, and it doesn't talk to stupid people.

You failed to respond to most of my arguments.

Namely:
1) The top 20% of men are not always available when and where a woman wants to have casual sex. So they choose alternatives.
2) They do not all have the qualities that the top 20% of men would accept. So they are forced to choose alternatives.
3) Your argument is "girls only fuck the top 20%". I am not sure if you know what the word "only" means. A single example disproves your argument. However, I said that all of my jobless friends who are definitely in the bottom 20% have had casual sex. Even a guy we nicknamed Catfish because his face was seriously fucked up, he got laid. Any one example disproves your point, but I have hundreds.

I will also deconstruct some of your childish arguments.

First, the notion of the top 20%. Just what is the top 20%? Do you mean of income earners? Do you mean looks? Do you mean charisma? Or do you just have some aggregate score that is "the top 20%"? Is it some number that we all can know or do women use their super secret decoder rings to find it out before fucking.

Then even the concept of a top 20% hints at the existence of a top 30% and a top 40% and so on. Why are you insisting that there is some cut-off point beyond consideration? Do you only buy the top 20% of clothing? Listen to the top 20% of music? It's absurd.

As for liberalism, that you even associate it with the progressive movement speaks volumes about your education.

The real answer is because universities teach the tool not a language. For programming python is simple enough to teach but powerful enough for complex problems like the napsack problem / classes and most programming concepts.

Any uni worth their weight will offer an EE tier programming course with languages like c/c++
