Not exactly surprising - most activity on reddit these days is just NSFW smut to promote <many>FANS pages.

But can I export video assets with this!? That's my question - I've had to resort to WebGL for a lot of this so far.

Feels like I should maybe just do something else. The startup I cofounded with decent funding is starting to flounder and big tech seems to have zero jobs. Not to mention the market has been with a new wave of thousands of ex-faang engineers far smarter than me. Going to college for CS seems like a waste now, but at least I have savings to burn.

Starting to lose sight of the point of doing this anymore...

$1 is meaningless, $4-5 would be a real incentive.

Tbh I'd take a greyhound any day over a Spirit airlines flight.

Random reach here but has anyone here managed to get FFMPeg to render JS text over a video? I've been thinking about this workflow and just haven't quite figured it out yet, only a prototype in MoviePy but I'd like to move away from that.

Glad I'm not the only one who's had this experience!

I have ADHD and unapologetically take adderall.

Yes, there's a stigma but there's also about a 6x improvement in my mood and ability to stay focused on a single task after I take 5mg. I've never developed dependency and generally only take it 3-4 times a week. I've also never really had to increase the dose.

This came after two diagnosis from neuropsychiatrists both reaching the same conclusion.

Being diagnosed at 22 I'm glad I wasn't prescribed adderall as a teen but I loathe how much more I could have achieved in college seeing how much more capable I am now.

I acknowledge it's probably not great for my heart health - but I was so depressed about how I was unable to get anything done or focus on studying before that I'd always make this tradeoff.

Thanks for your positive encouragement - I'm hoping to land something in January this has just been a tough time for me mentally.

I have to say - my most bizarre interview experience was a round 2 "culture fit" interview at Coreweave.

The guy interviewing was way too nice to the point it was weird and the whole interview was him asking about my "best traits" and breaking them down to "get to know me".

Granted, I've applied a few hundred places and only got maybe 6 interviews.

Sure thing, do you have an email in your prof here on HN?

I basically trust recruiters less than realtors at this point...

Thanks, obviously things have slowed down now because it's just Nov / Dec which is historically always a slow time of year for hiring. I'm just starting to lose hope because I started fielding my resume about four months ago - only a few bites so far and my emergency funds are running low. Feels shameful to have to dip into my savings.

I'm mostly confused because I made it to a final round for technical product roles at DeepGram and Bilt but I seem to get passed over for almost any other "entry" product or software eng roles.
