May be mining, but I'll bite. Working my ass off on my two jobs. Programming. Daily work looks like another wagie locking in a cagie. Sitting on my ass enjoying the shit efficiency of working while not being able to work on my own projects.
Working in general sucks. I just want to do what I wanted.

>Why do you want to work?
I don't actually want to work, I just want money so I can move out of my parents' house and get myself more and better computers. Work is the only way for someone of humble origins.

>If you really want to, what are your skills?
If I look at my recent github commits, I've cleaned up some shit portability code to the point almost all of it is gone (1000+LoC removed) and no platform was lost, fixed 2 buffer overreads in the same program, fixed the poor English in some documentation, updated a distro's package, ported a program to Musl, fixed the broken install step in a program's build system that was breaking the install step in a distro's package, written tests, and some more.

Right this moment, I'm cleaning up a library that went unmaintained for 20 years but is still widely used. The fork I'm working on was started by someone else a few months ago and it's already packaged in a few systems, that's how desperate they were to have someone maintain that library. I've accumulated so many fixes on it that I've almost rewritten the entire thing. 

I know POSIX shell, C, the POSIX C library, Autotools, POSIX Make, Meson, git, several CI systems, I've written programs for Windows, MacOS, Haiku, and basically all the free unix systems. I don't think there isn't a part of a program I haven't contributed to or written from scratch for my own programs: man pages, automated releases, build system definitions, tests, CI, linting, porting, the C source itself, libraries, packages, that Markdown README.md, you name it.
Given the broad range of programs I've worked on, I imagine most anons in this board are using something I've contributed to, however I'm not so sure about a random interviewer because I've mostly contributed to CLI stuff.
There's more I've done and more tools and small languages I know, more than I remember. My contributions aren't as great as I might be making them seem though.

If you are doing this for money, working is very inefficient. You are better off trading stocks, fooling boomers, flipping ebay. After 8 hours of bullshit, you need a will of steel to do anything you want. Besides, dealing with your parents may be cheaper than rent, depending on your area.
With that said, from your skills, DevOps would be the easiest, unless you want to be a sysadmin or Linux programmer (not a big demand). With your experiences you should be able write an impressive resume. Start sending applications, you will need to send at least 100 in 2-4 weeks. I wrote a Latex template for cover letters, each job is just changing some variables.

Depends on who is interviewing. If a women is doing that, chad up and be sociable. If a manager is doing that, dive into technical bits of your experience. Apply for junior programming jobs that you can practice your interview on (and decline their offer). Most of the hiring decision, if you don't spill your spaghetti in the interview, was done with your resume. Blow up your numbers and mount an angle that looks best. For example, made one commit that fixed a minor bug on GNU coreutils; can be written as improved and fixed bugs on widely used open-source system components installed on almost all unix and linux (they don't know what the difference is).

I basically got duped into taking a help desk job where my primary goal will be "password reset jockey". However, it pays very well and is 100% WFH. They will eventually move me into taking on "real" issues, and their system is a clusterfuck that their documentation is not helping me understand. I understand that this is a "learn as you go" scenario and I will probably get settled into it, but I am quickly realizing that the tech field that I had wanted to enter into for so many years ultimately boils down to helping retards reset their passwords, commit domain federation/record crimes against humanity so the VP can have a different domain on his email, and the inevitable day when the server explodes and the company loses $5 billion because of you. The fun of fucking around with shitboxes from 2003 and installing Linux on a dead badger is gone. There is only Microsoft, Azure, AD, and pain.
I have decided that I want to go into game development on my own. I want to be self-sufficient and make vidya fun again. This job will be a good stopgap for now, and hopefully the good pay can be used to help pay for my dream. I still intend to learn as much as I can about tech, specifically advanced Linux, Docker, Kubernetes, LDAP, etc., things that will actually come in use for running a game company, I'm just disappointed that the fun died this quickly. What's the point in setting up a homelab/showing off my autistic projects when people can't even understand how complicated they were to set up, or the only people who will understand all reside on a Moroccan Clay Sculpting BBS?

Algorithms is overrated in the job market. FAGMAN's hiring process is retarded. Leetcode grinding doesn't make one a good programmer. Most of the time, programming is an architectural problem instead of algorithm. It is about picking good names, applying the right abstraction and writing maintainable code.
>When in doubt, use brute force.
Using advanced algorithms can even make the program slower, because their lower big-O has a much higher constant and most of the time a program is not about sorting a million item list. Advanced algorithms have more lines and increase the chance of bugs and maintenance cost.

It's not only OK, it's an absolute inevitability for literally every human being throughout history. The list of known-incompetancies grows by thousands of items per day for all of us during this modern-era, no doubt.

The key to mental-survival in the unfathomably complex universe we live in is filtering. Or, as Trin Tragula would have it that, "if life was going to live in such a vast Universe, one thing it could not afford to have was a sense of perspective."

>filtering
On some sense of human supremacism, I believe human can understand everything. By applying precise filtering, computers can imitate Turing machines with infinite memory. Human brains can also employ the same strategy. Abstraction and categorization are precise filters.
Abstraction allow us to redirect pointers to a group of information, so we can swap information. For example, equations are abstraction for physical effects. We can defer evaluation of values to run calculations that would otherwise be impossible on so little space. Categorization allows us to limit ourselves to a subset of info.
Humans also improve their processing power by distributed processing and eventually self-modification. If open source and tested, I would plug my brains to my "Think"pad, maybe forever.

I'm all too familiar with this feeling. Looking back, I have gotten significant pay increases by working harder than necessary. It's a gamble but it can pay off. Nowadays though, it feels like I barely have enough energy to get out of bed. I've been working lower and lower amounts of tickets and somehow I still managed to let a couple slip.

On top of that, my employer seems to have a boner for making my life harder. They're trying to force us all to be on incoming calls whenever possible (in addition to our ticket work), and they just announced a draconian new spying system wherein they'll literally be recording our screens and audio devices, both on and off calls. It's such a shame, I had hopes that this could be a comfy job where I could coast, but my justifications for staying seem more and more like sunk-cost fallacy than anything when they keep doing shit like this. I do fucking hate job searching too though.

I even directly asked about the promotion which was mentioned to me as a possibility last month. All I was told in response was "we haven't had time to think about it yet" which sounds to me like they want to dangle it in front of me forever like a carrot on a stick. I've been wrong before though.

Magic eightball is spot on.  There were two times a job just wasn't working out.  First one wasn't willing to budge on a bunch of corporate team building bullshit like having to spend a month living in one of their dorms and that just was not only over the top but also conflicted with my personal plans coming up.  So we worked it out that I could resign pretty much on the spot but without that reflecting poorly on me if I should want to join one of the upcoming recruitment drives that comes up every 6 months.

The other started out as a temporary part time thing because I just wanted to keep the bills mostly paid while I had the free time to work on some other things.  I said if they wanted to keep me on board then I needed a $10k/yr raise to start putting away into a retirement account (2000s dollars, so rather more in today's dollars.)  They seemed surprised I asked so listtle and immediately agreed.

Common factor in both situations was that the employer wanted me.  I would have liked to stay at either one of them, but you have to have some limits on what you're going to put up with and what you're worth, and sometimes it's for the best to be clear about what your parameters are for staying.  The worst that happens is they say no and you be the one to say, "ok I'll think about it let's keep going."  And if you have particular requests like vacation days, meetings that get in the way, surveilance state, then mention it.  You're probably not the only one getting rubbed the wrong way, and sometimes there's wiggle room for getting some sort of improvement even if it's not your ideal.

Yup.  Better start making connections and building experience while you can.  Certs in your spare time might be a good way forward to differentiate yourself from the average webdev golem.  A lot of people wind up doing some kind of easy IT or networking gig by eventually knowing more than the other noobs and do-nothings after getting in as some sort of lackey or other.

Graduate degrees are another way in, since they usually pay and then you get to know smarter people and do more interesting things, but that's not for everybody.  Internships or summer jobs with them don't hurt, especially if you want to get to know something unusual and interesting compared to a generic undergrad degree.
I'm having trouble getting a /tech/ job. I'm a recovering NEET so I don't have much experience (almost six months of ACTUAL experience spread out over this decade) and I definitely don't have a very impressive resume. I've padded it out with "Freelancing" and a couple of low certs from freecodecamp, as well as projects I'm working on. I've applied for every possible job I'm remotely qualified for, from sysadmin and network engineer to fucking helpdesk shit, and I'm getting absolutely nowhere.  
At the very least, I can prove that I'm working on the projects and I'm studying for Network+ and Security+ (A+ is going to have to wait because fuck paying for TWO tests) so hopefully those will help my job prospects.

It's not hard to find bugs in this one: https://github.com/cmus/cmus/
I found a bunch in the tag parsing code and never reported them.

This one has a bunch of easy issues:
https://github.com/resurrecting-open-source-projects/scrot
It's not hard to find bugs in it either.

This library is widely used and also badly written: https://git.enlightenment.org/old/legacy-imlib2/
It has dead code and TOCTTOU sprinkled around. They also fail to check error values of a bunch of POSIX functions correctly. I'm sure there's more, I haven't read much of its source code.

The documentation of this one is written by lots of ESLs: https://github.com/mesonbuild/meson
You can find grammar errors and typos everywhere. Even if you're ESL yourself (so am I), if you know English well, you can find and fix English errors easily.

Also, if you want to find bugs easily, just learn how to use a linter or static analyzer, then run them against random programs. Chances are, nobody ever did this, and you'll find some low hanging fruit. You'll want GCC's -fanalyzer flag and Clang's static-build utility and libasan sanitizers. There's also cppcheck and a whole lot of other programs, though they tend to be low quality.

If you play this game https://github.com/ja2-stracciatella/ja2-stracciatella inside Valgrind or memory sanitizer, it's going to find lots of buffer overruns. That's corporate C++ from 24 years ago that has been hacked on without rhyme of reason by unskilled freetards who also decided to graft Rust onto it, it's very buggy. It also doesn't run on big-endian, so if you watch for endianness issues, you'll find them.


Generally, obscure programs are a waste of time, focus on programs people actually use.
>>9954
Also, build system code is a bug hive, partly because all build systems except Meson are trash, partly because most programmers have no idea what makes a packageable program, and even if you try to write build system code well, you won't really have any examples to imitate or guides to teach you. 

I recommend learning some good operating system's package manager and updating and fixing bugs in packages, that'll really open your eyes on what you have to do to make a program packageable and there are very few people who know that. I mean, there are whole languages like Rust and Go that are made by people who have no idea what it takes to make a program packageable.

I mean, that's probably Ft. Derek fellas you need to be asking about viruses. Any country that does "biological defense" is bullshitting when they say they aren't making some sort of agricultural ( or human bioweapon.
In the plant breeding sphere it's becoming true due to transgenics (genes not naturally existing). Not so much as a conspiracy but rather just consolidation of large business and bad court rulings Monsanto and glyphosate resistant grass is one. There are two issues at play here:
1) Under title 35 USC section 101 products of nature cannot be patented.
SCOTUS made some bullshit ruling (Association for Molecular Pathology v. Myriad Genetics, Inc.) where you could utility patent a gene if it was "not otherwise existing in nature", eg; synthesized in a lab (complementary DNA). Well, those genes eventually escape into the wild, so when someone makes a new cultivar they immediate get sued and assfucked when it does have that gene.

What they do is they breed the plants to be sterile and have patented genes, and in the contract you cannot "recycle" the seed. They push out all the other cultivars because their sterile one has much more yield, and they then send PIs to go around looking for people with seed reclaiming machine/business and trail them until they use it on a farm using their seed (even if it's another crop), subpoena them and then take everything they own.
The industry rule in breeding is that to not be assfucked by an "escaped gene" you have to find a naturally occurring strand with no trees within 2.5 miles. I have heard of cases with alleged glowops where they deliberately go and introduce the gene in wild areas but not in the US (Turkey/Egypt). It could also be some random bumfuck farmer stealing seed and planting it but who knows?
Sorry for the long explanation.
>>10154
Different anon, but I heard ((( they ))) already do it in 3rd world shitholes. They have genetically modified (GMO) crops that withstand Roundup™ (a notorious herbicide made by Monsanto) and some local farmres don't have the money to buy the seeds for the GMO crops. Then the neighboring farmers also get affected by the sprayed Roundup and they have to sell their land to the globalists or local rich farmers. Btw, Roundup is also likely carcinogenic to humans and it might also kills bees and butterflies. Unrelated: Also, GMO seeds for golden rice (made by Rockefeller Foundation) are also a scam because the local farmers in 3rd world countries don't have money to buy them (or so I have heard). Golden rice also still doesn't have enough vitamin A to be effective on its own. Also, it just so happens that Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation is also in the business of making and promoting GMO products.

>Doing it in 3rd world shitholes
They've been doing it in the US for years. It's just you don't ever hear about it on the media.  It's being phased out in the US due to the cancer lawsuits winning, 2-4D's been the next big GMO resistant pesticide also because agriculture and weed control literally can't move away from it and it's leagues worse than glyphosate. 
>Roundup being toxic to humans
That's a question of when, not if. Most of the herbicides are toxic to humans in varying amounts, you want a commonly used deadly one try paraquat, that one will shred your lungs. If about you want to worry toxic shit in your food, go look at anti-caking agents in salt. You want to worry about killings animals en masse? Neonicotinoid for insects and firponil for everything but humans (unless inhaled/ingested) Who am I kidding, go look up DesulfinylFipronil 
>Golden rice
Works well in a greenhouse.... Contrary to it's intended use for broke as fuck farmers in shitholes. I'll let you guess as to why it's not hitting the numbers they claim.  Also not too keen on introduced genes from things outside the same family (never the less different kingdom).

They been trying to de-regulate "simple" transgenics for a while now and APHIS got rightfully bitchslapped for it in 2018/2022 (Proposed rule withdrawn) even if the reasoning was retarded (muh GMOs all bad). If the rules were modified on the gene edits for intra-genus (not inter-genus) plant edits so long as the genome was otherwise not altered I think it would be acceptable since that is identical to regular plant breeding.

Hey there! So, I'm pretty good with English and I've been dipping my toes into programming. I've got a year of experience in manual and automation testing under my belt, but honestly, I feel like I've barely scratched the surface. I'm really keen on landing a gig that involves coding, 'cause I want to level up my career in that direction.

Since English isn't the main language where I live, I'm kinda leaning towards jobs that really value English skills. Oh, and I should probably mention that I'm in my final year of college with a couple of subjects left to tackle in different semesters. I can't take them both at once, so that's a thing.

So, any advice on jobs or positions that would suit my skills and interests? Any tips would be super appreciated!

I actually like the people I work with. Hard to believe, I know. I plan to stick around for a while. I will say that it sucks not having as much time to work on my personal projects, but I'm not quite as zonked compared to some other jobs I've worked so I still have enough energy at the end of the day to do a bit of coding that's just for me.

Just integrate yourself into important parts of your place slowly. At the beginning, look for opportunities to insert yourself into import processed. For example, put your automated tests into the build pipeline, get the release blocked unless test passes, etc. When you have sufficient leverage and street creds, you don't have to worry about being alone because people will want to talk to you or ask you about work. Then pretend to be busy to ignore them most of the time while avoiding more work.

This sounds retarded but what the fuck does an IT guy even do? Is it just a generalized description or what?

its a field not a job description
>>11528
it can mean sysadmin type of work, or it can mean just helping office ladies and installing windows, and setting up new smartphones and printers etc. Also, the work can be just answering questions over phone or using some company's chat system.

Make sure you take an olive branch if it's offered, even if it isn't necessarily your cup of tea.  If they're going to lunch, try to come with them.  If they're playing a sport outside of work, try it at least once. You can open yourself up to things without necessarily being extroverted and proactive.
What you should be proactive about however is asking questions and for help when you're stuck. That's the best way to improve at your job (and it give you a chance to talk with them).  If you just joined you're supposed to be incompetent.

Besides that, stuff like this takes time. Just wait a bit and they should open up.

I came with them on lunch sometimes but it's awkward. They are all older than me, know each other well, chatting over topic that I dont know much about. They play rank csgo regularly but I can't join because I suck ass. Where do I find friends here? I like being alone but I don't like feeling awkward around people. I need to find those cringey weeaboos and get into their circle. Anyone is ok, as long as I can blend in. I stand out when I'm the only one without friends and it feels like shit.
Do any of your anons heres have experience in logistics? Previous job got yeeted and I managed to get into a supply chain side job from a friend at a small company. Mostly sysadmin + supply chain. Right now it's a 10 man op including the boss but they are worried that people will steal their shit since they do a lot of prototyping work.
How do you guys write test case? I'm having trouble writing test cases when there's always room to improve and I keep missing info or get it wrong.  Srs and such there's so much info that I need to have a deep understanding on.

Always test all edge cases and min and max cases.

Auto test guy here, I'm so fucking fucked. I know literally nothing and their actual requirement is 2 year of experience. Help me guys, I lied too much on cv and they actually believed me.

Either lie and say that you can't for whatever reason or just go with it. 
If you're smart enough you can learn on the job and start studying now can help.

Every company is different. You're going to have 10 years experience and still walk into a new place and have no idea what's going on. They also don't expect much in the first 3-6 months either. Just chill out and learn what they want you to do as best as you can.

If you're a full time employee getting paid by the year then yes. If you're a contractor getting paid by the hour then that's when they expect you to get shit done on day 1.
