If you aren't a part of those groups in the 4th bullet point, don't even waste your energy

I'm a UK breh. I just keep eyes on the US market because I should be moving there soon. I don't do any competitive programming at all and in all fairness I don't think I am the fastest programmer out there anyway.

I did send them a message as that is not the first high paying job that I have seen them post and it would be good to get a contact there for when I need it

I don't think that's the actual salary. The real salary is probably $100-250k. You get bonuses on top of that if the firm does good. But what happens if the firm isn't doing good? There's the constant pressure to always succeed. They'll probably fire your ass if you make one mistake. I still want to become a quant though because I find it interesting. May have to go back to school to study math.

Well thats the game the reason why these banks pay ridicolous salary is because they want the best of the best. At that level they can handel any pressure they are not your average 9-5 worker probably been grinding 10 hour intern shifts since undrgrad

I didn't want to do it but I gotta go back to basics

I kinda skipped learning concepts and just programmed

But I feel I'm just programming to program. I don't really have a good grasp on the why.

Like why I would use a array vs a list? I need a better understanding on the concepts behind these functions

What's your primary programming language?

What's your primary programming language?

I mainly use SQL

But I'm learning C# as that's what some the apps at my job uses.

Sometimes we run into issues where sql runs fine but when passing that back to C# we start seeing issues with run time and things like that.

Need an understanding on these functions so I could possibly offer solid suggestions...and I like coding using C# in general.

Have your C# code call on stored procedures, not SQL. It'll make your life easier.

Very wise way to enter the programming space.

Any of yall familiar with deployment of a react app on s3.

I have a react+redux+express app, I was working on.

Trying to tweak the file structure to run on AWS. Want to deploy the front end on s3 and the express backend on ec2. Cloudfront as a CDN. Figure I should split both in two repos (front end, backend).

Main issue is that i'm unsure how to refactor the axios calls for the front end. I figure I can create my EC2 instance, assign an static (elastic) ip. Create a module and import the url when making axios calls in my action files.

The other issue is refactoring the package.json for the npm build commands.

Every tutorial out there has a different file structure. Hard to square one to my situation

I need to step back and re-learn some of the basic concepts for Python again. Working on the Tic Tac Toe game for my Udemy class made me realize that I really need to completely understand the fundamentals before proceeding with Object Oriented Learning. shyt is not hard but I'm making things more difficult than it has to be. As for my SQL training, it is going good and hopefully I will be done by the end of this month so that I can start looking for jobs who required SQL knowledge. Just focus on this until my Python skills are up to par.
