gotchu

Did any of y’all have Comp Sci classes in HS? Not sure how normal that is

Yeah I did in grades 11 and 12, not uncommon nowadays

I figured it wasn’t, I took it all 4 years to AP Visual Basic first year Java for the rest they had just switched from C#

Nice, we never had any CS classes freshman year unfortunately

are you a CS major now?

Went to college for 4 days lol. Signed as an artist now tho plan on going to school online this fall, I gotta get that film and psychology degree but want comp sci one cause I was kinda good at it and two because when I move into tech I want to know what I’m talking about
Or should I say zero and one , hehe

Sounds like you got a solid plan laid out

best of luck with your music bro

Thank you bro the majors thing is the hardest part, need the film thing but just want psychology to be able to move in a room of snakes
Still want comp sci tho like I said

Python bros - how would I go about http requesting some html data from a site and storing it somewhere? I used beautifulsoup to extract the data I want which now prints when I run the script but now I'm not sure how to send that data elsewhere

Ya my hs did, they only offered two Visual Basic classes and AP Comp Sci (Java) I took them all. was kinda fun

Yup that’s just about how mine was. Did your teacher actually teach or just give you a book and s*** to do? Lol

for the visual basic class my teacher would sometimes teach, go over a power point, and an example then toss us the book. everyone buddied up n did the work together so we could just play halo

AP CS my teacher had a baby so she went on leave and her sub didn’t really know java... so I kinda learned nothing in that class and was carried by my classmates

Yeah i had the same teacher every year who notoriously did nothing and I assume was part of the big scandal the year after I left who would just throw the book at us and pretend he was watching our screens through whatever program, same s*** though everyone just cliques up and would like try to make games in Visual Basic lol
I have a text based Minecraft that was like playable I wish I had access to that

Finally cracked 50 solved problems on Leetcode

Uhhhbput it in a data structure and pickle that or you can just write it to a csv with pandas or something

Do amazing on the coding test -> have an interview and be told you answered every question with what they wanted -> receive a sympathy email 2 weeks later about how they chose someone else more fit for the position -> repeat

My life with these tech companies is draining…. I have guys at my company recently that at work message me and do screen sharing sessions for me to help them out and how I would approach a problem up to the day these same companies hire them while saying I wasn’t a fit.

I have to start this whole process again next month with another company and if this doesn’t work out I’ll just chill at my current place for the time being. Studying and s*** to be prepared and still being passed on by companies just ain’t it. And it’s not even like I’m applying for these big companies their recruiters contact me to go through this bs, I’m pretty sure at this point it’s a quota to interview a certain number of black people to add to their diversity report.

Thank you man appreciate it

Gotcha. What’s the project?

It’s actually changed a bit now. I’m writing an app that will grab the key information from these contract listings that the company I’m working at wants to apply for and input those into a word doc template. I’m using bs4, requests and docxtpl. It’s my first job in the field and first coding project actually after some time spent self taught programming. Finding it a little hard but I’m getting there. It’s also kinda helped me realise that I really do (kinda) enjoy coding 🙂
