It has been a while since I applied anywhere… but they all want degrees and professional experience last time I looked :(
Idk maybe I should start applying again sometime. It’s not like I have a resume to show them beyond retail/supply chain work though lol. I don’t even have contributions to open-source projects to show tbh. I never finish any of my projects.
Hmm are there any open source projects you could see yourself working on? Maybe start small instead of planning your own thing which you don’t finish. Sorry I don’t want to give you unsolicited advice. I don’t even know if the advice I give is any good.
I actually have worked on a few open-source projects but I never submitted my patches… then I forget about them and they get lost to time lol. On stock OpenBSD (which I run), my desktop PC’s audio is kinda broken (long story, can link you a post I made about it if you’re curious) so I had to patch the OpenBSD kernel Intel HDA (corpo acronym but the last letter means “audio”) driver to make it work properly (had to add a whole new mode of operation for what I think is probably broken hardware, like my motherboard manufacturer fucked it up). I’m still maintaining that patch on my own lol, I need to submit it.
It’s good advice and I don’t mind, I’m just maining untreated ADHD rn, maybe that’s why I don’t do these things
As for my own projects… these grand and often probably ridiculous ideas for software (recent example: video game as a filesystem) come into my head and I hack on them obsessively for a while and never finish them because of the scale :(
Yeah, that looks cozy as hell
Oh well,
I’d be lucky to own a home at all
I’d be homeless if weren’t for my family
At least you know stuff about computers. I’m getting forced to learn that shit against my will becuz capitalism
I’m sorry ;w; that really sucks
I can’t even find a job in computers cuz I’m not degreed
I just go from treat servant job to treat servant job
What do you want to do?
But honestly any work that is ocean related would be nice, I live in a landlocked country and I really miss the ocean.
That would be cool…
I’ve never even seen an ocean tbh
Me? I don’t give a fuck anymore. Strange that you don’t get a job though I figured programming BS wouldn’t require a degree.
