You guys got any good "Project Management" style apps? Maybe not really the right term but I'm trying to be more organized with my work and using onenote and just making a new page everytime I decide on something isn't really working for me. I'm looking for something that's like a calendar + todo list + notetaking that I can be like
>May 7th - May10th: Go Live Project
>Weekly 1:1 with Boss: Long Term Notes/Short Term Notes (Refreshes Weekly but I have a repository of what I wrote as reference)
>Long Term Projects
>Short Term Goals/Long Term Goals

Just something easier to me to micromanage myself and figure out how to do shit without getting overwhelmed and bouncing all over the place.

I was also wondering the legality of it. I don't want to start documenting something on a productivity app and show my boss during my 1:1 and he just goes "......dude what the fuck, you can't just put these details on some random site?" I'll probably ask him if I can but if he says no, I'm going to have troubles keeping track of everything.
Outlook + Onenote isn't exactly the best at linking information together. I have Jira too but I don't know if that's really great for this type of thing.

>>100122721
just make subpages in onenote, do you REALLY need more?

>>100122748
Yes. Onenote sucks so much ass. Terrible for organization.

>>100123621
You are exiting into a horrible job market. If you are asked your age and it is irrelevant to the job start paltering like a politician. You cant lie outright since it is easily verified. They arent allowed to discriminate on age but its very difficult to prove they are yet they are allowed to ask. You could have it worse. 30 isnt that bad especially if you look young.

>>100123820
>But if I can get internship doesnt that also mean i can get job?
Being honest at the moment, getting internships is harder than getting a job. None of the people I know in my Uni have gotten one. You can get a job but it won't be a good one and you will have to put in disproponately more effort than worth for someone your age. IDK how you got those internships but if they are good enough, a job guarenteed for your in the months after you graduate.

Also, what were you doing for the past 10 years?

It’s over.

Most of the interships are backend related stuff, there's also a high chance to get hired after completing the internship here because at least they dont have to train someone again.
When applying for internships I did manage to get interviews at a few large companies but im not sure if ai will have replaced those jobs by the time i graduate.

Counter examples:
It's generally well accepted that emotional development and intellectual development do not proceed hand in hand, unlike moral development. Thus, in tech, business, finance, and other highly technical fields, there are a statistically high concentration of psychos and abusers.

You're confusing the reality that moral development is not often selected for regarding gainful employment. This is unfortunately closer to reality. Thankfully, the average person is quite conformist. Unfortunately again, that causes its own set of issues.

i have become so bitter and disillusioned that i stopped listening to people altogether. there is a senior recruiter in my neighborhood and my mom introduced me to her since i'm a freshgrad, and this lady keeps yapping about golang, vue, and node.js while i just want to be a QA, devops, or gamedev shitter. she keeps selling me to be a product manager or business analyst and learn python after i turn 28 or 30, i just cut off her words over and over again and she finally excused herself out after 5 minutes.

i told her i'm not interested in coding part of tech anymore, i rather be a certfag since the market is awful here and companies hires more IT support than coders. For me, coding is so much more bearable when it's for my own, like making games or fucking around with p5.js. if i really want to get far in tech or climbing up a career i would learn about being a sociopath than learn another meme framework or springboot.

we get it bro you're so different and cool

bros how important is dressing for success? I recently found out that months ago my office had a budget shortfall and needed to lay off some people. So management created a work performance list, and the bottom was exactly who I expected to be there, except supposedly I was near the top of the performance list, but I don't actually do anything at work. This knowledge only got passed down to us recently so it couldn't have been my coworkers covering for me because they liked me. The only thing I can think of is that the office dress code is business casual, and most people ignore it and show up in sweatpants and shit, whereas I wear a collared shirt and nice pants (well they're not dress pants, but I consider them nice) every day. I know management doesn't know what the fuck they're doing, so is it possible they just looked at me, thought "Yeah he looks professional, he's probably a hard worker" and just gave me a good performance report?

Ironically of the bottom three people, one got fired and two quit so we didn't have to lay anyone off anyway lol

I can’t think of anything to say.

>>100125254
And you're a cockmuncher!

If you’re a CEO you SHOULDN’T expect your employees to be working as much as you.

Period.

The CEO at a former company, used to tell me he was frustrated no one worked as hard as him.

He complained that he worked every weekend (and he sent us all emails all weekend too).

He worked late at night (and called often when I was at 7pm baseball games, in mom mode).

He talked about how he started work at 5am every day (and often made his leaders get on calls at 6:30am).

He couldn’t understand why “these younger generations” didn’t have the same work ethic.

What he failed to realize is “younger people” aren’t lazy.

They aren’t less dedicated.

They aren’t different than any generation before them.

They simply know what’s important to them, as every generation does.

He is the leader of the company and as such makes far more money than anyone else.

You can’t expect someone making 60k to have the same responsibilities as someone making 350k+.

We all should take personal pride in our work

We should give it our best, whatever that is day to day.

But how you choose to work as an executive should NOT be how you expect your team to.

Hustle away, just don’t create hustle culture for others.

Be a good human. Lead well.

Start by joining techy groups online where you share projects with one another.
Some of those groups also have irl meetups. Use meetup.com as they have techy groups in every major city it seems.
Check if your city has a makerspace. There are search engines for finding them. Not only do makerspaces have group projects, they also have general hangout nights
Look for networking events that are scheduled at local hangout places. After the scheduled "talk" lots of the people there stick around to make friends or they make plans to visit some bar
Look for when bars have trivia night and just show up and ask a group if you can join them. If you're afraid to approach the group directly then ask the people organizing it to help you find a group

>>100124848
It really depends. IMO, if you're not in a client-facing role or a role where you're interacting with C-suites, you just need to look well-kempt and appropriately dressed. Nice, well-fitting jeans and a lint-free, light-colored company hoodie more than meets the bar at most companies. Going the extra mile will get you noticed, which can be a plus, but doesn't make the difference to people you would regularly work with. The main goal is to make sure that your physical appearance doesn't inspire any feelings of revulsion or disdain.

I’ve been hiring people for over 10 years, and I can tell you that:

1. Personality is the most important trait in an employee. If that’s dialed in, they figure out almost anything else.

2. Everything else is less important. Unless the role is extremely technical and needs high skill immediately, hiring for personality wins.

If you’re in a hiring role, take a chance on someone who has the right attitude but is lacking in experience.

You won’t regret it.

Or just go for a plain paper notebook. The only thing it can't do is pop up notifications on your screen. When I note down tasks, I put a big mark on the side of the notebook (sort of like a tilted A) so I can easily see where there is a task and tick it off once it's done.

Also, it will look more attentive and professional if you take notes on paper during a meeting as opposed to just typing on your laptop.

I mean at least they know you know what you're doing, and at least need someone else to sign off before pushing.

The issue isn't that the AI could push to prod, just that it could do it with no oversight whatsoever.

Sorry anon, my last job wasn't tech but healthcare so I got to, like, do my job and no I wasn't just soullessly creating value for shareholders. But I liked the people I worked with and my manager was upbeat and kept it light so that was tits. It definitely comes down to who you interact with. I think that having a boring job is a good time to take up a sort of mindfulness/meditation routine and, if you really don't like it, start low-key putting in applications to organizations you feel you'd be a better fit at. Send out some feelers to some people who you think won't bullshit you about what its like to work there. I don't have a lot of evidence but I think it's a bit rare to work somewhere where you actually *like* you coworkers though, instead of just don't dislike them.

In this age of internet where even a poor man can have tons of beneficial info at his fingertips assuming he has at least a phone (and hopefully a laptop)? Poor but supportive for sure. Especially if they aren't a burden to themselves (i.e. they pursue good habits, keep good friends, are earnest).

I've read that a sage can make one forget their poverty. It's good, I think, to be in proximity to good people. I grew up poor-ish with a narcissist single parent. 0/10 wouldn't recommend.

Sirs do your company uses bitbucket data center? Can you access rest api from it or not?

My company uses bitbucket data center, that is a private bitbucket server. I know theres this docs
https://developer.atlassian.com/server/bitbucket/rest/v819/intro/#about

But my server uses this basepath for a repo:

mycompany/source/projects/projId/reos/projSlug/browse

tried changing the url as the docs suggest

mycompany/rest/api/projects/projId/reos/projSlug/browse

but that doesnt work


Do you know if bitbucket server has a standard rest api url path that i can check? Im blindly trying combinations like /mycompany/rest/api/... mycompany/api/... and so on since theres no internal company docs about the api.

Ask questions.

Be honest and say when you don't understand and if he can rephrase what he just said.

Take notes.

Be humble, don't try to act like you know everything or know shit better. Keep an open mind.

Good luck, you got this lil nigga

>>100129998
Think before asking questions. What is it you don't understand? Narrow it down as much as possible. State your assumptions in case they are wrong.

>>100129998
In addition:

Whenever you run into issues, try to resolve it first. But don't spend hours or days stumbling along. Ask questions early, but only after you've tried yourself. And explain to your senior what you think the problem is and what you've already tried.

>>100129998

What to do if my manager delay my requests?

I try to do my job as fast as possible then the bottleneck before i can move to next step is some approval from manager. He seems to purposely slow down everything by taking too long to review my work.

Is this because he wanna control the project at a pace that is better for everyone and just do the minimun to not get fired?

I dont know what do to in this situation. Of course i cant go to him and ask hey, are you purposely delaying everything so he dont overwork ourselves?
I finish my job asap then spend days with nothing to do. He never complained to me about anything so i also avoid remembering him 5 times a day to review my work because i cant progress before that.

I dont mind the boredom so i ask him 1 or 2 times and if he still dont do my review then i assume he know deadlines better and just wait for him. Am i acting right in this situation or not?

dont ask the same questions over and over again. its my number one issue with shitters. its fine to ask a clarifying question if you don't understand, but dont ask how to login to a server for the 5th time. if you're going to ask a senior something, make sure you take notes so you dont ask it again. better yet, if you want to go above and beyond, document it in a wiki or something to help the next guy joining.

your mom is an open source project

Worked with academic types in my last job and it was a pain since they kept bogging productivity down with nonsense that had zero benefit at any point in the projects we were on. As of recently, I think I really just hate working with anyone that comes straight out of academia with zero industry experience - recent bachelor holders excluded at least they're willing to learn and adapt.

you arent building muscle in your full body retard

more muscle burns more calories. you sound like a faggot. stay fat

other anon is right, increase muscle to increase baseline caloric needs, then count calories.

>>100132031
this is a good example to other people in the thread that being fat starts in the brain

HR had a slack channel open for filling a new position that they left public so I had a peek. What I learned

onboarding to a new place and my coworker is a sperg who messages me about random shit all fucking day. we are the same rank. these are not actionable requests, or links to important materials, etc. it's just random commentary on the design or "good morning! have you [X thing he could easily check himself in 2 minutes]?"

you guys ever dealt with this? if i hear the notification, i already know it's him. i don't work to make friends, i love tech but hate techbro culture actually. my actual manager rarely contacts me outside of meetings. how do i make it clear i don't want him messaging me 24/7 without making him an adversary? i'm at the point where i just don't reply unless it's convenient for me

am gymanon, assumed sedentary nerd based on post, marathons are helpful context. don't bother replying to skinnyfat chud who rows once biweekly in his living room. his negativity/mental illness should be apparent to others lurking. just work out more often bro, 4 lbs in 4 months is nothing. lift weights if you don't already. increased muscle mass will increase BMR which should help, and improve overall aesthetics. you aren't going to get too big on accident. you probably don't need us to tell you this if you're already a runner, you're probably just eating like it's marathon season when it's not, and don't have the muscle-to-fat ratio to cover it in the off-season. good luck king

Was about to throw my application to a recruiting agency job post only to realize after reading through it and find that it's for a company that already rejected me. I was an 80% match, too.

5/8 is the more accurate number

>>100130164
>4 pounds
that's just 1 month of eating healthy

>>100132412
pretty much what i'm doing already. he lacks awareness of social cues, my concern is that he will (1) throw me under the bus to management or (2) begin to consider me an adversary as a consequence of social rejection he doesn't understand. was wondering if anyone had similar stories. i imagine basically every job in tech has a guy like this. i've never enjoyed the company of the manchildren it attracts, i'm here for the engineering and the money

>>100132050
Technically, that 1/3 is more like 90%+. Recruiters do not like doing work and would rather just go through the referrals since the stack is shorter and it'll just get pushed through.

>>100132462
thanks sir, appreciate the advice. I've always focused on cardio training but I think it's time for some more focus on weights as well (was focused on getting fast times in the past but as I'm older who gives a fuck). I don't care about aesthetics that much. I definitely have a bad habit of eating too much in the off season so that is on point, kek

>>100131881
is this one of those reddit posts where you imply there is literally nothing to do after retiring that does not involve children somehow?

>>100130164
> new stressful projects makes it hard to curb what I am eating
What the fuck is wrong with you manchildren who eat nothing but goyslop? I work 70-hour weeks, I live alone, I do nothing but codemonkeying all day, I barely even go outside unless it's for grocery shopping, and I still cook healthy food for myself. Boiling pasta is the dumbest shit ever, rice cookers pretty much work by themselves, cooking meat literally takes 2 minutes, and slicing a tomato and some spinach takes less than 1.
Do you have the palate of a 7yo, or what the fuck are you stuffing your odious mouth with?

This is the most basic shit, holy fuck.

>>100132537
you're welcome, my friend. reddit ppl (yes reddit is gay everyone knows it, whatever) is a good routine to start. nsuns is another good routine i've run that was enjoyable, but more intense. i use the "boostcamp" app to track, there may be better out there. /fit/ sticky is a great top-to-bottom overview of nutrition, cardio, weights, etc.

anecdotally, all the elderly people that look healthy & strong i see in the gym lift, and the ones that look like they're just now getting in the gym for lifespan purposes are stuck to the cardio machines. it's a good indicator of what's to come based on habits. the fittest 50+ person i know runs multiple marathons a year, but also eats super clean does weight training at least 3x a week. they're also one of the fittest people i know in general kek

>>100132388
Funny enough, I was in the exact opposite situation minus rank. Me and the guy didn't get along because we had communication problems the whole time. I didn't constantly ask for his help or asked him every single question under the sun, and he would "forget" to give me critical information all the time and flip out about it. It wasn't until another guy that he was friends? with in the office left that he tried getting chummy. The bridge was already burnt on that side so I wasn't really going along with him on that.

Ultimately, I got on the layoff list since the guy was a senior and probably said whatever to get me out of there. What I'm saying is be careful because these guys are petty and will do anything to remove you.

Every tech company with market share is from the us or rich asia (china, south korea, japan). Europe has no tech industry so everyone with cs skills is fighting over scraps or fighting to get into the us.

>>100132722
You are just being paid the real uninflated wage. Even that's not desirable and thats why poland and romania are turning into tech hubs where slavs will work to the bone for peanuts

>>100132788
No idea about China, but pay is even worse in Korea and Japan (especially japan because of their recent taxes and currency tanking)

>>100132575
Yes.
