- Apple TDG AR/VR interview I have an interview with Apple AR/VR coming up. What leetcode questions do they ask? What 3D math do I need to know? How about graphics topics? TC: $415k #arvr #tdg
- Query regarding Qualcomm Graphics group. Greetings All. I have a couple of interviews lined up with a Qualcomm Graphics team based in San Diego. In light of the current situation, I am prioritizing stability and good job profiles. I have heard a lot of opinions about Qualcomm here, so I thought I'd seek it again. Any thoughts and opinion
- Grateful not being broke anymore Growing up in a lower class family, I didn’t have many toys; all I had was a cheap PC and a Gameboy growing up. I remember pirating games until my PC couldn’t handle the graphic and the PCs also got really expensive year by year. Long story short, I don’t make crazy purchases but it’s nice to just
- Sick of this new website trend Anyone been to some websites that have some stupid animation or graphics on the home page that use 80% of your CPU? Heats up your machine and kills your battery. What front end idiots thought this was a great idea?
- Where to get a fast, powerful, affordable laptop? My budget is $2,200. Would consider up to $3k though.

- Tired of recruiters who only know web terms > So do you work on the back end, or the front end? Uh… I don’t work on web stuff. The world does not revolve around web stuff. I work in low level systems and applications. Native development, 3d math, simulations and graphics. And yeah I also do networking and server simulations too. And seria
- vote Start-up with only 3 people for $120k and 1% equity? The role is for Founding Product Designer, and I’m new and changing industry from graphic design to product design. Is this a good idea? It felt like a good fit to me, but the shakiness of such a small company is kind of scary to me since I’ve built up a really strong and secure design career.
- Investigate NVIDIA for antitrust NVIDIA launched their new line of graphics cards at stock levels that met 1-2% of demand. What little stock existed was sold out within seconds. They’re sure to use this as a great justification for raising prices because of “record demand.” They claim to have started production in August but it se

I've been coasting a bit and learning a bit. Suddenly, I woke up at 2 years with QC and realized I just want to get more experience and not cruise forever. I feel behind my peers and I'm ready to go hard for a few yea
- Don't Buy Cyberpunk 2077 on Release Spent a good chunk of the weekend watching a stream from somebody who got an early PS4 copy. The game is soulless, empty, boring, has really outdated graphics/physics and is so glitchy it makes Bethesda games look polished. Get off the hype train before your $70 burns up in the crash. Maybe get it

One of the teams I interviewed has come up with a verbal confirmation and they have shared their offer numbers over phone. Haven’t accepted the offer yet. What’s Intel policy with multiple team interviews? How long can I
- Why is YouTube so pathetic about policing Crypto scammers. Literally, I can find the same group of Russians who hijacked Michael Saylor videos on BTC. They edit them with graphics pointing to a site where Saylor will 2x your BTC. I traced the domain names. They’re all acquired in Russia and I just watch the BTC addresses piling up BTC. Why doesn’t google ca

- Oracle Cloud Ad Just saw an Ad for Oracle cloud on CNBC which says “Oracle. More cloud applications than anyone else” How is that even a metric we should be proud off? Having more applications means nothing, it’s probably a negative point. This looks like those graphics they put up in the elevators in HQ

- Apple Augmented Reality Engineer Interview I have an interview coming up with the Technology Development Group (TDG) @ Apple for an AR Engineer. Has anyone interviewed for a similar role before? I know this is a very niche domain, but I'm curious whether they'll ask Leetcode questions, or solely focus on iOS/ARKit/basic 3D graphics fundament
- vote 16" MacBook Pro (32 GB ram, i9, Radeon 555X) or 13" MaxBook Pro (16 GB ram, i7)? Which would you choose for a work laptop? Usually I hate large laptops. I love the small factor of the 13" because it's the perfect size for traveling. On the other hand, I am docked 95% of the time, so the small form doesn't even really matter which makes it hard to pass up on the extra ram and gra

- vote Casual interview attire (Big 5) I know the whole “what’s appropriate attire” has been asked a million times. No suits, polo shirt, button up shirt, slacks or jeans, no sweat pants, etc. Specifically I was thinking of going really casual, not bum. Anyone try this or interview someone at an Apple/Google style company before. Think,
- How easy is it to move into different types of roles at Google? I'm thinking about applying to a role that is up my alley, but not completely what I want to do for the rest of my life. I want to get into Google, but am wondering how open they are to moving into completely different roles within the company after a few years. Think a graphic design role into a pa
- What parts of CS are/will be in demand? I have heard/seen that embedded programming is getting less and less employable, which is unfortunate, as I enjoy coding in C quite a lot. Not that this is the only use for C, but what other sectors use it? I have also been looking at different parts of CS, and was wondering which are/will be in de
