Being a Twitch Streamer is the best decision I've ever made.
Carter Gonzalez
Nice Blog retard
Josiah Thomas
They forgot to mention that you'll also be paying half your salary for a decent place to live
Elijah Reyes
And another 30% on taxes and so on. 500k in the regions where you have a chance of getting these salaries is still borderline poverty tier.
Lincoln Ramirez
Literally only 1% of all CS graduates will ever get a job at these companies
Luke Lopez
>be streamer
>stream online game
>other players yell racial slurs etc in their microphones
>audience can hear it
>get banned from Twitch for violating their community guidelines
lmao ok
Wyatt Jackson
source?
John Morgan
How the fuck is any programmer worth this?
Hunter Ward
What the fuck does a dev do at linkedin
Isaac Sanchez
try 10%
Brayden Campbell
These are fake jobs.
Jonathan Campbell
What is this application
Xavier Jones
>Stanford University
>Massachusetts Institute of Technology
>Harvard University
>Princeton University
>Carnegie Mellon University
>California Institute of Technology
lmao Linkedin has a section that shows where a company's employees went to school. Results are not surprising.
Ian Morales
I love doing this to smaller streamers who may not know this rule or ignore it for the livestreamfails bump and then report them. Think ive gotten a couple channels shut down so far.
Dylan Clark
>using other peoples software
not gonna make it
Adam Fisher
Its over state-schoolcels
Camden Russell
I went to a state school and had no problem finding jobs.
Jeremiah Cox
those salaries are for like the 0.01% and they don't last more than 2 years, and either you move to another job or you're out
Cooper Cooper
Caltech is not the best for CS
Cooper Turner
Just got accepted into the computer program at DeVry, can't fucking wait bros.
Chase Anderson
I'm at Stanford and swamped by Asians
Jaxson Phillips
yeah but its incredibly fucking boring
Isaac Sanchez
I honestly love programming. School is stupid, you'll find it matters 0% if you're competent and enjoy the work. It's not hard to excel when most people just don't put in the effort to be an effective devloper
Logan Lewis
>expect to make 300k
>get a 40k coding monkey job
>get fired after 3 years, can't find another job
typical cs graduate career path
Grayson Brooks
What is your IQ? And your stats (SAT, ECs, projects etc). How did you get in?
Dylan Gray
It's called negotiating a salary.
Wyatt Morris
>COPE
Leo Perry
>In bay area
>Making only $250k a year
>Google L4
>L5 is $400k
>Most of money goes to rent
What's the quickest way to kill myself?
Anthony Garcia
>make 250k a year
>most of money goes to rent
Nice larp.
Jonathan Watson
t. 16 years old that knows css and html
Leo Cruz
>ignores federal taxes
>ignores CA (lmao)
>$32k annual spending when most people spend more on that on just rent alone, not even including utilities
Great job living with mommy
Asher Bailey
I'm not kidding, remove tax, remove rent and I'm left with 1/3 that amount.
Anthony Barnes
Yeah, everybody get 300k, if they only learn to say "not enough" .
David Ward
just get promoted to L5 and don't kill yourself
Jackson Robinson
That's my income post tax retard. And I don't live with mommy. I share an apartment with my sister though.
Connor Adams
So you spend $75,000 a year on rent? You really should kill yourself.
Easton Phillips
>just get promoted to L5
>Google
>actually being able to get promoted
>not a death trap so you can get controlled by sociopaths
Please make the death as painless as possible
Jose Harris
Why are you still at Google? Why not go work at a quant hedge fund?
Tyler Fisher
$40,000
Jaxon Thomas
>come to Jow Forums
>larp
>shill
>living the life
Gavin Cox
How did you get a $250k a year job if you can't do math?
Julian Ramirez
>quant hedge fund?
That's even worse, at least Google's hours are reasonable. Quants work 80 hours a week and end up looking like they're 50 by the time they're 30.
Jose Jones
>What is after-tax money
Jonathan Phillips
>I'm not kidding, remove tax, remove rent and I'm left with 1/3 that amount.
Tyler Jenkins
OK fine it's 2/3 that amount still it fucking sucks, it's just a normal salary and everyone acts like you're a big shot
Xavier Brooks
pick good ones (rentech, tgs)
not easy to get into tho...
Adrian Ward
A "normal salary" doesn't give you a hundred grand to blow on whatever the fuck you want every year.
Anthony Martin
You're right user, I should be thankful. I complain too much. I'm sorry.
Isaiah James
Nah dude, keep comparing yourself to people who make more than you and feel bad while I sit here making 60k working 50 hour weeks with 7 years of experience living it down and living like a king of the slums.
Parker Collins
Then why are threads about being JUSTed at job interviews and CS being a meme major such a recurring theme?
>t. $40k robot engineer considering CS as a side skill for upgrade
Gavin Foster
Google's interview pass rate is under 5%
Andrew Flores
No, the pass rate is around 25%. Most applicants get weeded out by HR and phone screens.
Eli Gutierrez
go/affordable-housing
Those memes aren't just memes user. It's honestly quite a nice office.
Anthony Gray
This desu. Though the ones who yell sexist slurs and swear constantly are the ones who earn the most. It's a slippery slope. One wrong word and you could get shut down instantly. Would be great for the bants though.
>"So how did you afford this house if you're unemployed now?"

Anthony Howard
When i live in the bay area is was an Asian invasion. wouldn't be surprised if it had gotten worse.
Xavier Lee
>share apartment
poorfag amerishart slave, bet you share some mold-ridden 10sqft flat for 5000/month
Jordan Morales
because CS grads are brainlets and yet expect high salaries despite being brainlets and get mad because they get BTFO'd at interviews for not being able to apply simple algorithms to solve simple whiteboard problems
if you're a brainlet have fun being a java code monkey for the rest of your life, however if you're not then enjoy $300k starting
Mason Morris
A great deal of posters here tend to be lazy, low-ambition types who graduate with 0 internships/side-projects and balk when they are passed over for more qualified peeps
Michael Price
Do you think I wouldn't be able to live by myself if I wanted? The grapes sure are sour.
Samuel Morgan
kek, keep believing that
Lincoln Bennett
Now think of how much fucking money these companies make while still paying these salaries
Ryder Young
So many people talk about programming on this board and it all goes over my head
t. Server babysitter
Blake Price
This but in reverse. I have no idea what our IT dude does in the server room all day but it must be very critical and demanding
Adam Morales
Generally if everything is running fine you're doing maintenance or upgrades, or if you're smart learning more on company time if there's nothing else to do
(which I assume is what programmers do as well)
Alexander Powell
Imagine getting a job at LinkedIn, through LinkedIn. It too meta for me, I don't care how much they pay.
Bentley Morgan
Especially considering the pays they claim. Half the time they only list the maximum they're willing to pay, rather than the actual pay you're likely to receive.
Robert Morris
>That's my income post tax retard.
>I share an apartment with my sister
>Do you think I wouldn't be able to live by myself if I wanted?
Makes mad bank, dabs on Jow Forums ragebabies, and fucks his sister at full force in her vagina, mouth, and anus whenever he wants. Based.
Connor White
The stuff they program makes lots of money.
Jayden Cook
>IQ
Never gonna make it
Kayden Russell
>t. low iq nigger
Brayden Ortiz
Wow how much do you get beat up at school?
Jordan Ward
>make $500k
>all i have to do is not be racist
easy cause im not a retard
Joshua Richardson
If you can do it though, two years for a million dollars is pretty good, and it'll be easy as shit to get a pretty good job afterwards with that on your resume.
A lot of these guys go from top company to top company. So sure, they don't stay there but they'll get compensated just as much at Netflix as they did at Google, etc.
Noah Morales
I went to school with a bunch of guys who went big iron afterwards. Had gaming nights for a few years afterwards so we all gossiped like schoolgirls.
The vast majority of their time is spent doing paperwork.
Very little of what they did was really that demanding.
But that's like a lot of jobs. I'm an EE myself. 99% of my job is stuff I can teach techs to do, and none of it is super demanding and often repetitive. But that 1% of the time is why I get paid the bigger bucks.
Hunter Green
>mute everyone
>keep making big mula while all the other 99% are wage cucking from 9 to 5
Haahah twitch streaming is A gold mine. I m glad i was good enough at vydias to make it
Wyatt Ward
>34 ACT
>2150 SAT
>Graduated 6 years ago
>E4 at [spoiler]Facebook[/spoiler]
Neither of those tests measure IQ - and IQ is a bullshit number anyways. I find that idiots who dick around about IQ are simply using it as a proxy for how smart they are reinforced by online tests because they were too stupid to have a good GPA/ACT/SAT.
>hurrdurr I don't try hard in school, but I have 150IQ I swear!
Cooper Nguyen
Brayden Sanchez
>in London university
>half of my year is Chinese, can't go 10 feet without finding some chinks sitting in a corner talking in chink
>another quarter is Indian
>actual white people are a minority here
There's nowhere safe, is there?
Anthony Scott
cope
Charles Green
Are you British? Identify yourself.
John Campbell
It's just generally assumed you are smarter if you went to a top school. You get grilled less than other candidates during interviews, treated with more respect and get higher pay.
Thomas Parker
I'm a non-british mutt.
Luke Ramirez
>comp sci PhD student at elite private midwestern university
>a significant portion of the faculty are white americans or white europeans
>half or more of the grad students are white
>the other half are a mix of asians and brazilians with an indian or two thrown in for spice (maybe there's a black guy? idk i've never seen him)
you can probably guess where I study but still it's fucking based and i'm not jealous of MIT or Stanford one bit
Ethan Price

Cope my mutts.
Eli Torres
I can buy 20 of your dream apartments.
Cooper Sanchez
In America or Romania?
Ryan Rodriguez
In Romania.
Isaiah Miller
>"So how did you become President?"
>"Basically shit talked my way into it."
Jaxon Williams
How many apartments/houses can you buy in the market of the country you work in? For apartments, consider a 3-room over 75 square meters setup. That would usuallh cost 70k euros here.
Brayden Lewis
Why would I buy an apartment in this country when I can buy one in Romania, which according to you is a better country to live in?
Samuel Miller
Why are CS degrees gatekeeping kids who were not good at math? You don't need it to be a coder
Joseph Wright
Yeah UIUC, that's a really good school though - on par with MIT (at least some of their alumnis are)
Elijah Gomez
It's not better it's just where I was born. Looks like you guys live like beggars in your superior markets, whereas I live like a prince in mine. Stay mad.
Adam Brooks
CS is a mathematical field, people interested in "coding" would be better of focusing on software engineering. Many schools offer a software engineering degree but call it CS.
Thomas Rivera
I can move to your shithole and live like an emporer any time I felt like it.
Brody Bennett
>You don't need it to be a coder
You also do not need a university degree to be a coder.
Learning "how to code" should maybe take a month or so.
If you have no skills besides "being able to code" you are literally pajeet tier and soon will get pajeet pay once the market has saturated.
If you learned "how to code" from a 3 year thousand dollar degree you wasted 3 years and thousands of dollars, because you have learned nothing about computer SCIENCE.
Also math is fucking awesome.
Jonathan Adams
Then do it.
Daniel Hernandez
All entrance exams are in math where I live for all IT degrees.
Ryder Martin
>Neither of those tests measure IQ
SAT correlates to a good degree with IQ.
>IQ is a bullshit number anyways
Stop being anti-science.
