CS master race feels (hnng)

Comp Sci student checking in

[Axonic]

OP i want to doc omputer science?

what area did you go into? network engineer, database adminstrator etc, not sure what to specialize in or find out what interests me. cant fukin wait til i make it

Also how hard would you say it is/10. I'm not bad at maths, good enough

happy for you though sounds like you love it, and yeah it is a very respectable and profitable subject

Depends what you like, I found databases boring as phuk so I didn't care for it but networking is interesting and high salary although network programming has a ton of different standards that you have to abide by.

you don't need to know any math beyond intermediate algebra depending on your purposes, just make sure you are a master of it.

No degree gives guaranteed employment.

But CS comes pretty close.

***its my uni required us to take a 1970 course on programming in x86 assembler. first weeks was like u wot m8

Of course knowing ASM will give you an edge since it is the foundation of all programming languanges.

I'm currently in my x86 programming class and we just moved to C from Nasm. It is great to know C but I don't really see how knowing x86 programming will majorly effect my programming in something like java. I mean I guess I understand memory management a little better, but I dunno jeff.

thank you brah! yeah networking did seem more interesting but i only have the most brief understanding of it, I'm gonna make it eventually, thanks bro

[_BFMV_]

lol, its easy. half the class is 1-d-3-d motion, sht is easy if you know calc I. it only gets hard towards the end with harmonic motion and stuff

barely gonna take pre calc next semester. am i screwed?

get into data science / BI
all the jobs are there
everybody talking about big data and chit

[TelAvivTalmud]

currenly taking 24 credits

as well as next semester:

Obj Orient User Interface Java
Adv Database Programming
Server-Side Web Development
Advance Software Engineering
Formal Languages & Algorithms
Differential Eq/Linear Algebra

jew mad ?

[ATVx779]

barely gonna take pre calc next semester. am i screwed?

no, you can self learn calc over the winter break in 2 weeks. you dont need to know definite integrals for calc based physics, just derivatives and anti derivatives, which is the easiest thing in the world to learn.

watch patrickjmt on youtube. search his videos for the calc I ones.

thanks brah. also, lets say i want to become a network admin down the road, would that be a wise choice? I am more into the networking side rather than programming but i like programming too..

[UGK4Life]

brb introduce self as a CS *******
brb nobody gives a chit
brb loser nerd virgin etc
brb "my dad does CS"
brb just you yourself and all your millions
brb your ilk are all fedora wearing ****s

brb not a doctor

medicine > garbage man > CS

ya, its a good choice, but you still need a solid programming base. any CS program will prepare you for any job choice you choose, granted you take the proper electives jr/sr year. the core classes will be plenty of enough preparation.

thats good then, it will atleast aware me on what i will enjoy in the future and prepare me for what is to come

in on this

[tryhard33]

I don't know how it is in the states but here they don't rly teach you how to do the programming. Did it all by myself.

And the homeworks can be a pita.

thanks brah. now just gotta start practing my math. it amazes me how all these miscers take calclulus like nothing and here I am barely managing with college algebra. too many feels.

[TheAmericano]

My friends with liberal arts degree who have graduated a year ago still can't find a job. When I'm here, one semester from graduating and getting job offers. They all said it's been a waste of time and money.

Was thinking about going straight to a masters in CS. Anyone here done this?

[anonymous]

Fukking UMBC making us do pointless classes.

It wasn't entirely pointless at least I learned some things. But why in the phuck was I required to take chemistry for a CS degree? Cot dayumit Hebrowski.

[JStrez]

Mechanical Engineering brah checking in, I knew like basic programming from an early age, sitting on a computer wasn't exciting enough for me so I went into Steam/Nuclear Plants with my Mechanical Engineering Degree. Still in school but got a few sweet internships waiting for the next two summers and then a job out of college as long i don't mess up any classes.

How's CS in terms of credits over the undergraduate course? Im taking 184 for my Mech E degree

Currently studying physics, looking to do a masters in machine learning and statistics to get into this field

just gotta do practice problems man. it starts to come down to repetition and you just spit the answers out once you see the problem since theres only a certain number of variations they can test

If you get the chance you should get a job with the DoD and become a contractor. I heard they make 6 figures when sent overseas for 8 months and its tax free.
