Was your first IT job ML/DS/AI related?
2025.01.30 08:09 Charming-Pilot-2009 Was your first IT job ML/DS/AI related?
Hi, the question in the title says it all, but here’s a bit of context for anyone who wants to know the background.
First, I’m not from the U.S.; I’m from Europe, specifically Spain, so the job market is a little different, I would say. I’m in my last year of my Computer Engineering degree. After many years of not knowing whether I really liked this field or not, in October 2024, I finally decided to end this confusion by finding what I truly enjoy or what my passion is.
After conducting in-depth research, I came across this field and fell in love with it. Since then, I’ve been fully focused on learning, and for the first time in my life, I genuinely wanted to study more and more—not just for the sake of achieving a result, but for the pursuit of true knowledge.
I know that three months is nothing when it comes to learning this field, but thanks to an active approach, I’ve been progressing at a really good pace. Right now, my learning is focused on my final degree project, which is a Kaggle project, Home Credit Default Risk, and on re-learning math by reading Mathematics for Machine Learning, paired with MIT lectures on Linear Algebra and Probability & Statistics.
And what’s the problem? Well, I’ve been lucky enough to land an internship. I mentioned that, if possible, I wanted to learn and work on a Data or AI-related project. I know my knowledge isn’t top-notch, but I have a solid foundation from my degree, along with what I’ve learned on my own. And, well, we live on hopes and dreams! But, of course, that wasn’t the case.
My job will be to learn COBOL (along with JCL, ISPF...) and work on projects that require someone with knowledge of this technology. I know it’s a good opportunity to land my first job, and once I’m in, I can switch to another project. I asked my manager about this, and it’s possible, but the timeframe could range from five months to more than a year.
Although I don’t mind it too much—since once you’re in the market, it’s easier to move than to get in—I feel a bit disheartened that I won’t yet be working on real projects related to what I truly enjoy.
So, my question is: Before getting a job in this field, did you also have to endure a job that you didn’t like as much? Did you manage to land an AI job right away after a lot of effort, or was there some luck involved?

Buondi, nel tentativo di acquistare un oggetto su Subito.it, il venditore mi ha riferito le seguenti parole, non avendo risposto per ben 3 ore dal suo messaggio!!!!!!
Gli ho detto di stare calmo che avrei risposto quando avrei avuto tempo avendo una vita.
Immagino quante vendite concluda, aggiungo io.
"Stai calmo tu testa di cazzo di *mio paese di provenienza*"

2025.01.30 08:09 Mammoth_Berry_4174 SSAF and SA-HELP
Does anyone remember applying for SA-HELP to cover SSAF fees? I have just viewed my invoice and I am required to pay that fee type. I'm very confused because I applied for eCAF which defers my unit fees to the government. To apply for the SA-HELP it says to complete an eCAF form which I think is the same one I already when did enrolled.
My question is, do we need to resubmit the eCAF form (and if so, can we do it now) and also did anyone apply for SA-HELP and is anyone paying that $182 SSAF fee?

2025.01.30 08:09 doctorsylph No one wants to see us together...
But for some reason, I can't leave. In the past, I was always able to leave. I've only been in love once before, but once it was time to go I was out.
Even after you lied to me, I stayed. You cheated and I stayed. You broke me more than any person ever has and I'm more in love with you than I ever was. My family hates you, my friends hate you, but I feel I'll never hate you.
When I look into your eyes, its like looking at a piece of my soul. Or my future child. I'm not sure what it is, but that sense of deep familiarity keeps me bound to you.
When we were apart, each day felt like torture. I couldn't stop wanting you. Even when I was angry at you, I wanted the comfort of your arms around me. Now that were in a relationship again, I'm happier than ever because I know what it feels like to really lose you.
It's not perfect though. I feel resentment and there's a fear that wasnt there before. It keeps whispering to me that you'll leave me again. Or that I want to leave you to escape the future possibility. I wouldn't be able to emotionally handle being cheated on again.
Yet even with this fear and distrust. I love you. Were both trying to work on it. It's messy and imperfect but I feel physically unable to leave you now. I want to stay with you. After knowing you, I just can't go back to being strangers. I wonder how this will end.

Hello everyone! For quite a while now, l've wanted to try experimenting and finally find out if I would like something like this or not. I would prefer to experiment with someone that's new to this as well so that it makes it more fair for the both of us. As for me, l'm blonde, 185cm, skinny.. I can add more details once we chat. I'm looking for someone that's hung and on the dominant side since l think I would consider myself more sub when it comes to guys. I'm planning on travelling to Italy in the nearest future but like I said, my conversations are open to anyone from within Europe. If you're outside of Europe, then just ignore this message in its entirety. Looking forward to chat :)

2025.01.30 08:09 Wide_Highway3162 My theory on the Denji and Mineta debate
I know nobody gives a fuck about MHA all that much these days, but after seeing posts that debate on how Denji from Chainsaw Man is more liked than Minoru Mineta from MHA, I've come up with a conclusion due to personal observations, or at least, a theory.
Why all this is is due to the following: The coolness factor, their character statuses, and fan reception. Let's start with the coolness factor.
The Coolness Factor
Denji... The anime he's from is literally called CHAINSAW MAN. Do I need to explain? Denji is... Well, a chainsaw man. He's been through MANY scenarios that'd realistically kill someone, yet he managed to prevail, and he's just more badass.
Mineta? Let's see... He's:
- Built like a Cocomelon character, with his costume also looking ridiculous (his bowl for example looks like a diaper)
- Got a very silly looking quirk
- His perversion is depicted as less charming and more on the devious and mischevious side, as to help the running gag of "Mineta does pervy thing, he gets his ass handed to him for it" work. Kinda like why Eddy from Ed Edd n Eddy is so funny is because the punchline is his failure. Anytime he does his scams, he gets his ass handed to him, same with Mineta whenever he does perverted shit (either it be on purpose or not).
- And his main personality traits is that he's a coward who's into the hero business to get popular so girls would like him.
All these attributes wouldn't usually make for a typical "cool" anime character people love so much. Like for example, part of why people make excuses for Katsuki Bakugo is cuz of how "cool" he is, given he's a short-tempered hothead with a quirk that's essentially a fucking nuke, and is not afraid to throw hands with anyone. Mineta? During the first few seasons, he normally freaks the fuck out whenever danger arrives, and he mostly tended to be focused on girls, which makes fans hate him. Speaking of fans...
The Fan Reception and their Character Status
Starting out with Denji again, as everyone here knows, Denji is the main character of Chainsaw Man, which results in people being more lenient towards him cuz of not only how cool he is, but because of development. We have more insight into his depressing background, his dynamics with others, etc, which makes people feel more compassionate about him. What also helps is that from what I know of at least, the Chainsaw Man fandom, aside from some cringe here and there, is mostly a mature community full of respectful people. MHA... I wish I could say the same...
Mineta... *insert a sigh sound effect here* Imma be real. The My Hero Academia fandom is a complete shithole. There's a reason why it's regarded as one of the worst fandoms on the Internet. From ship wars, to porn, to even sending the author DEATH THREATS... And character analysis is not any better. Not by a fucking longshot. Due to how popular MHA is, naturally it'd attract a much more... Aggressive group of people, either it be immature minors or basement dwelling man/womanchildren who need to go outside. And unfortunately, most of Mineta's haters tend to be like that. Don't get me wrong, it's valid to dislike him, cuz even I have gripes with his character. However, people tend to go WAY too far with him. While the Chainsaw Man fandom is more forgiving to Denji's flaws due to being the developed main character, due to Mineta being a side character, and most of his humor being "do pervy shit, get punished for it", the MHA fandom... Well, there's a petition that's made for the purpose of wanting him to be killed off, that should already show you how much they hate him.
Mineta was deprived of all the luxuries Denji seemed to have. Why? Well, he represents a major problem of the series: There was no plan to truly evolve the characters that it claimed to be important, and when it did, it either didn't matter and was undone, made no sense and was just there to bait shippers and certain parts of the fandom, or just never done much. While Mineta's development was the most consistent and definitely good, he's still stuck with his side character status, which means unfortunately, since his name isn't Izuku Midoriya, Katsuki Bakugo or Shoto Todoroki, he mostly doesn't matter and is constantly sidelined, which means we don't really get to see him grow as much as he should, which is a shame, because there's a lot of potential with him.
Another problem is how at that point, people already made up their minds about him. In most of the fandom's minds, he's basically Harvey Weinstein but short. They're more willing to ignore his good traits in favor of his bad traits so they can try to essentially outlaw liking Mineta due to their need to be morally righteous to have their egos stroked, and if you dare to disagree with them, prepare to be sent death threats and your IP address. A major factor on why that is, is due to how due to him being stuck as a side character and thus doesn't get developed as much as he should, it's easier to remember his bad actions, and given most of his haters are chronically online lunatics who can't separate fiction from reality, that results in them being more willing to see him as just "the perv".
Basically for a shortened explanation, due to Denji being the main character of his own anime, thus allowing us to get more insight into his background, personality, etc, and his fandom (for the most part) consisting of mature, respectful people who are willing to see Denji's strengths and weaknesses, his fan reception is a lot better. Whereas due to Mineta being a side character, and thus he doesn't get a lot of development, making him mostly remembered for his flaws and bad actions, along with how the MHA fandom is full of terminally online morons who needs to touch grass, naturally that sours his fan reception.
So yeah, that's my insanely long essay on what I believe is why Denji is more liked than Mineta. If anyone disagrees with me, that's alright, you can say whatever you want in the replies. Just be respectful... Please? And for any Mineta fans, I'm one myself, so I'm not trying to bash him or say he's a bad character, I was merely giving out my personal thoughts due to my experience in the MHA fandom and me doing some research on Chainsaw Man and it's fandom. Now if you excuse me, I gotta go to bed, it's like 3AM (If any of you make a joke regarding those shitty 3AM videos, I will feed you to hyenas) where I live. Ciao suckers!
