Reply to comment by [deleted] in [OC] Job Search by Menacingamaranth

I would recommend looking up resume templates/guides, getting professional friends to help you practice interviews and look up common interview questions! I looked on Indeed, ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and local industry-specific job boards

Edit: Also I feel for you. I’ve been living off cheese bread and credit cards

Um I believe public universities and community colleges are part of the government, right? Likely taking direct orders from the government banks on how to help the banks maximize revenue. But they've over done it. Bet they never imagined a growing movement that questions if going to college is even worth it anymore. Many schools are seeing declines in enrollment.

Reply to comment by cepegma in [OC] Developer jobs popularity evolution on google trends: What obstacles to change career from full stack to front end developer? by cepegma

Technically full stack includes front end. So really it all depends on how well someone actually understands that layer. Like I know some dev-ops and some ml-ops, but to do dedicated either I'd need a fair bit of work.

Ultimately it depends on the job requirements. Some places you'd be fine just knowing react, css, typescript, etc. No matter your title if you stay on the surface like that you stay junior.

Dedicated senior front end should really understand how browsers actually work. Should be able to build various libraries and frameworks using raw js, but know to avoid that if at all possible. Should have worked with at least a few ui-frameworks. Should understand workers, sockets, events, shadow dom, css build as part of or separate from webpack build, webpack build, canvas, various common patterns for handling async like observables/promises/acid, functional and OOP, render cycles, debouncing, various local storage/cookie based ish, typescript, node, etc.

Really the main thing is about learning how to handle complex, non-linear state. Everything I mentioned is about state, and most apps need to be rearchitected from scratch because the designs are different. Unless you're working on boring stuff hahah.

Then there's all the design and UX stuff one should be at least a little familiar with.

And if you want to do web specifically there's a bunch of ish for that. You can build internal apps with the above.

>Have you experienced this kind of career change?

Hmm well I started out a barely trained full stack dev, then went nearly dedicated front end for a few years, so kinda? Front end is more complicated and takes constant work to stay on top of. That's what makes it fun. And also terrible and I'm never going back no matter how much people keep asking irl.

I think the college model we have is all about sales, and selling the college experience, when it should be about getting the skills to fill a position in business...somewhere. All the other ancillary football and basketball stuff is nice, but why am I paying for that? When the highest paid state employee is the football and basketball coach, there's a problem.

Reply to [OC] The Eagles are the most proficient pass-rushing team to go without a sack in the Super Bowl (chart) by JPAnalyst

Chart: Excel

Source: Stathead

Description:

Teams with no sacks in a Super Bowl game, listed by their avg sacks per game:

114 teams have played in the Super Bowl, only 14 of them failed to register a sack. This year, the Chiefs stopped the Eagles from doing what they do very often, sack the quarterback. It’s well-known that the Eagles have four pass rushers with 10+ sacks, and they have the third most sacks in NFL history (70). Note: On a per-game basis, the Eagles 4.12 sacks per game is the 20th most ever (1957 Bears with 5.0 per game have the most per game). The 2022 Eagles have the most sacks per game for any team to go without a sack in the Super Bowl.

The chart shows those 14 teams that went without a sack in the Superbowl, sorted by sacks per game in the regular season. The bar represents their average sacks per game in their Super Bowl season. To the right of the bar, I’m listing their sack leader in the Super Bowl year, beneath the team name next to the Y-Axis, you can see their Super Bowl opponent.

Other nuggets:

10 of the 14 teams lost, but the 2009 Saints, 1974 Steelers, 1968 Jets, 1980 Raiders, are the four sackless teams to win the Super Bowl,

The Colts were the Super Bowl opponent for sackless teams three times. The ’68 and ’70 Colts held their opponents (Jets and Cowboys) without a sack, and in another era, they held the Saints without a sack in the 2010 Super Bowl.

The 1997-98 Broncos won back-to-back Super Bowls without giving up a sack in each Super Bowl against the Falcons and the Packers

The Raiders are the only team to be shutout in sacks more than once. The 1980 Raiders held the Eagles to only 10 points in Super Bowl XV without registering a sack and won the game. The 2022 Raiders went sackless in a Super Bowl loss to the Buccaneers. That 1980 Raiders team averaged 3.4 sacks per game coming into the SB, the third highest on this list.

The 1974 Steelers and 1979 Rams (led by Jack Youngblood with 18 sacks) were also sack-heavy teams to go sackless in the Super Bowl.

Reply to [Topic][Open] Open Discussion Thread — Anybody can post a general visualization question or start a fresh discussion! by AutoModerator

I'm afraid to make a new topic/discussion and be inappropriate for this sub. But, let me ask you guys... what software do you use to make these amazing-looking plots? I'm trying my best with python, but I'm not sure if I'm on the right path.

My goal is to make plots for business reports, but not sure about the quality.

Any help would be deeply appreciated! And thank you in advance.

Reply to comment by ravenhawk10 in [OC] New Mexico Now Produces More Oil Than Mexico & Venezuela by latinometrics

>You say Saudi Aramco is publically traded but it’s only got a measly 1.5% traded and only from 2019.

They still have to operate as a publicly traded company with an unbiased BOD, and have to do all the financial reporting/auditing that comes with being publicly traded.

>Its basically fully government owned and lines government coffers nicely every year.

But it's not the government making capital allocation decisions, it's the BOD and management...this is the key difference

>The whole point of the IPO was becuase the government wanted cash. To be fair they are using it for a sovereign wealth fund to diversify their revenue. Furthermore, the IPO didn’t attract much interest from western capital markets for problems commonly associated with SOEs, like corporate transparency and political risk.

Again though...the company does not take direction from the government (at least directly).

>It sounds more like Saudi Gov is just more competent at management than the Venezuela Gov.

The thing is the Venezuelan government directly controls and mandates what their oil company does as far as dividends, capital investment, etc....this is not the case with Saudi Aramco. Even with Saudi Aramco though, these companies (with large state ownership) do tend to have worse capital investment ROI and poor capital allocation over time.
