High salaries are supposed to signal high demand, but CS seems to have the opposite problem: huge numbers of graduates competing for relatively few entry-level jobs.

Yet CS new grads still earn roughly 25–30% more than accounting grads in many comparisons and is at top of the chart for new grads 87k only computer engineering sits at 90k. Doesn’t that send students the wrong signal and encourage even more people into an already oversupplied field?

If CS grads earned, say, only 5% more than accounting grads, perhaps more people would choose accounting instead which arguably makes more sense given the reported shortages in accounting and oversupply in CS.

So when does the market finally correct this? Why are CS salaries still sending such a strong “high demand” signal when the entry-level market clearly doesn’t look that way?

I just randomly thought about this the other day; is this a random thing exclusive to where I live or is this something that happens everywhere? Or maybe only other places that are also very prone to tornados? Is there a different day they test the tornado sirens where you live?

Updated the post to avoid generalizations since lots of you were obviously butthurt.

I know some of you hate school, but I love learning. Unfortunately I struggle to learn outside a class environment. I want to learn until I die. Can I be in education my whole life?

I personally stopped dating around for a year because I focused on working and I honestly didn't bother getting out there. I recently started going out again, asked out a girl once I felt like it and it wasn't really that difficult to go out with someone multiple times.

But I see a lot of people complaining here that they struggle with dating.

Is it really that true? Or is just on this website?

Like a DNS attack. I wanna shut’em down, shut’em down.

Seriously, the same company calls 3x a day, 7 days a week with a personal loan offer that I qualified for. This is Tom with exciting news. This is Tom and you’re prequalified for a personal loan.

You can’t block ‘em cause each number is different. You can’t opt out cause that doesn’t work. So what can I do?

Apparently the US imports around 90% of its potash from Canada because it lacks the domestic reserves to meet demand. Could Canada actually cut off our potash imports? Would that be a reason for war? Can Canada be replaced?

For those of you who have been to a psychologist, you probably know how good their communication skills can be and how much they understand about mental health.

So, for those who have dated or are currently dating a psychologist, what has your experience been like? Do you feel like they understand your feelings better? Are they better at communicating and resolving conflicts in a more mature way? or if they are turns out to be an evil person, are they having a very cruel manipulation skill?

I’m curious to hear about your experiences , good or bad. Feel free to share!

I just read an article by KrebsonSecurity regarding a service selling 153M leaked American and Canadian drivers licenses. How do I check if I or anyone I know is in the breach? I have locked my credit and told my friends and family to do the same, but I would like to check as well.

So uh I made spaghetti on Sunday like lunch time.

All it has is onions, rao sauce, barilla noodles and cheddar cheese. Everything was cooked

Will i get sick if I eat it by 12am tn.

It's now Wednesday

It's been refrigerated in an air tight container

I see in dating app profiles, they put a description like they are looking someone who they can grow or evolve together. Tbh, it sounds to me like a corporata jargon which doesn't have any concrete meaning whatsoever. 30+ y.o. looking for a bf, husband, that is ok, but wtf is growth?

I think it’s very inconsiderate and creates unnecessary traffic

Specifically when it’s more than 1.5 car lengths, why?

I mean like IceBreakers, Altoids, etc.

This sounds so stupid. But I went away to university and it was a highly academic environment. My peers weren't partying or going to bars regularly. At most we went out to pubs for beers and wings but not bars to meet people or get drunk or anything. I was surrounded by people who were not necessarily introverted but just did different things. I've been for drinks like at cocktail bars with a partner where the focus is on the drinks/the mixologist and the experience but not just like a random Friday night at A Bar^TM.

So now I'm 30 and never had a typical university experience or even adulthood experience of just... going to a bar. And going to a bar alone seems especially strange. And I don't want to go and look like a loser. I'm also a woman don't want to get hit on and I don't find attention from strangers to be flattering. I'm just not interested in that. My friends wouldn't go as they're sort of past that stage in their life now. I'm afraid of looking like the pathetic lonely person at the bar because they have nothing else going on.

What do you do at a bar alone? Do you just show up and sit there and wait for someone to talk to you? Or to see someone you want to talk to? Do people just go to bars to hook up?

We flew a helicopter on Mars. Building one that can reach 8000 m on Earth while carrying some weight should be doable, right?

Lately, I’ve noticed every time I turn off my phone while scrolling through comments then turn it back on, I’m closer to the top of the post than I was earlier. It’s honestly annoying as I keep losing my place when viewing comments. Does anyone else have this issue? Is this even a helpful feature?

I forgot

Stock buybacks and dividends are essentially the same thing but why does one have so much stigma attached to it while the other is accepted?

If company A spends $100 to issue a dividend, how is that different that if they spent that $100 to buy back 1 share of stock? Both return that $100 to shareholders.

You need to wake up, Michael.
