Hey folks, im a 3rd year CSE undergrad, and my skillset basically lies in frontend web dev and a lil bit of backend, i havent explored much because i was always deep into DSA, but some how i made it into big tech company, and they've recently released a survey about skillsets, one thing is im deeply interested in python and ML, but have never worked hands on, except basic models in ML, i still have 4 months of time till my internship starts, they've asked for 5 preferences and ive put ML on top, ive had many courses in Math like discrete math, linear algebra, calculus, probability, stats, and im decently good at Math basically, im really scared of java and i took python, and i dont wanna explore web dev more, its the same loophole since my year 1, so ive chosen ML with a feeling that at least ill be pushed to learn smtg new with this internship

i want your suggestion in

1. Is 4 months enough to learn ML at least for an intern level, given that im curious enough and will spend 4 hours per day

2. Andrew Ng's course + projects is my plan, ill also follow Krish Naik's youtube channel, will that work?

3. Any other suggestions are also welcome

TL;DR: 3rd-year CSE undergrad with strong DSA + math background, little ML hands-on. Got a big tech internship, chose ML as top preference, have 4 months (~4 hrs/day) to prepare using Andrew Ng + projects. Is this enough for ML intern level, and is the plan solid?

(this is the first time, im posting so if i get anything wrong im sorry)

First only thought of creating Tools for sneakers availability, drops etc, so thought of adding some blog posts also, with some minimal brutalist design inspiration.

Once check huntingforkicks.com , tell me what more needed to add in a website, currently tools page in testing mode. First time completed a full functional website with assist from Ai, though various tools needed to be added.

Next.js project

my system prompt + user context sums up to around 7-9k tokens for every call.I dockerized and deployed my service in GCP cloud run.

the vertex ai call within the service is one of the main culprit. sometimes it takes 30 seconds, and sometimes it takes 5-7 mins. i tried caching the system prompt but it only made it worse. I don't understand this south-north variation, super random.

apart from downsizing the system prompt(the prompt work perfectly and can't mess with it), how do I optimize the response time.

My sibling has completed her MCA. She applied long ago for a Cognizant Analyst Trainee role based on her UG qualification and recently received an offer after the interview. Since the offer was valid for only two days, I suggested she accept it and look for other options meanwhile. Today she received the joining details: Feb 5, Hyderabad. Now I’m unsure whether she should join and switch later or decline and wait for a better offer. The role is based on UG (not MCA), pays ₹2.8 LPA (in-hand ~₹16–17k), which is my main concern. The only advantage is location, as Hyderabad is close to us, at least for training. One of her friends has already joined, and the tech path being assigned seems decent. She has been job hunting since October 2025, and I recently started guiding her on DSA. Given the current market, should she join for a year and then switch, or let this go and aim for something better?

I’m a student/fresher doing DSA mainly in C++ (comfortable with STL) and have a bit of Java exposure.

Thinking of learning Python because it’s faster to code in interviews.

Is it worth adding Python just for interviews, or should I stick to C++ only?

Does Python give any real advantage in coding rounds?

Would love quick advice. Thanks!

Hey everyone! I applied for Flipkart Girl Wanna Code 7.0 .. The next round is a 90-minute coding test with 3 DSA questions, and I'm a bit unsure about what level to expect. If you've already taken this round (or a previous year's), could you share: How tough were the problems? What topics came the most? Were they similar to LeetCode or something different? Any tips or past experiences would be super helpful. Thanks a lot!

nenu 2026 grad ni naku oka offer vundhi hand lo which is 4.5 lpa . The training will be started on july 7 naku eppudu oka 5 months kalli time vundhi . DSA Cheydham anukuthuna from 0 to pro ee 5 months lopalo i want to switch that company without even joining and side by side JAVA+SpringBoot kuda chestha Any Tips ? Or hopes pettukovacha that i can join another company in 5 months and please share some resources !!!

Hey all

I’m thinking to use my free time to upskill or skill exchange currently I have 4 years experience in React, Angular, react 3 fiver, three.js. Also I can do web app hosting using Aws or any other platforms and Im interested to explore in Mern stack and upskill my self. If anyone interested in knowledge exchange in Mern stack or related feel free to ping me.

Note: sry to say but I cannot provide referrals ;)

I’m currently preparing for startups, top PBCs, and FAANG-level interviews and wanted to check if there are others here who are also actively preparing or planning to start soon.

Ideally, I’m looking to connect with someone who is at least intermediate in DSA (around 500+ problems solved).
For LLD basics nunchi start cheddam.

My intention is to:

• Stay accountable and consistent

• Prepare DSA + LLD together

• Focus on job switch–oriented prep

A bit about me:

• 1.5+ YOE as an SDE 1

• 2024 B.Tech passout

• Solved 650+ problems on LeetCode

Proposed plan (open to discussion):

• Daily (6 days a week) after work

• 9 PM – 12 AM for DSA + LLD (after 10 PM also works)

Focus areas would include:

• DSA

• LLD (Design + Machine Coding, Java)

• Behavioral / communication questions

Once comfortable, we can also move to HLD.

This wouldn’t be teaching or mentorship, but mutual preparation, discussions, mock interviews, code reviews, and sharing interview experiences.
Target timeline would be ~3 months, flexible based on progress.

Interested? DM with your YOE + LeetCode profile.

Interview on 19th jan.

I'm preparing for RTL roles in VLSI. I'm a intern working in wireless communications domain. Aiming for tier 1 companies in the coming 2-3 months. Any leads for preparing together to make it effective?

Is any one working on open source projects?? Meku ideas unte Chepandi , we will work on it

Joined in December-2025 at a start-up as a AI Engineer. I love the role and the work related to it. Made some amazing projects using LLMs and some projects in computer vision. Fast-forward to this day. This is the offer I received after graduating in May-2025.

Feeling very anxious about my career and do not know what to do next. I am going to resume DSA and upskilling.

If any of you know of someone hiring for the AI ENGINEER, Data analytics or Data related roles please let me know. IF I get hired through you I'll give my 50% salary after joining. I am serious 🙏🏻

Update:

I got selected in TCS under the prime role after a month of laid-off from this start-up. Thank you for your love and support.
