I sleep 6-6.5 hrs per night and workout almost every morning. Sleeping on your REM cycle is more important than total number of hours IMO.

☝🏽☝🏽☝🏽 same. Working out plays a big factor I believe. Sleep like a baby after a good work out or get your day started with a good work out. And, the REM cycle is true fact. Do not set your alarm to wake up while you REM sleep.

Quality, not quantity. I find that a solid 5-6 hours of being knocked the F out works really well for me. Exercising before bed and avoiding late night caffeine helps

Hi Fishies! (Is that what we are? I’m going with it)

I understand (and respect) that most of you Googlers on here feel that a referral is only useful if you know the person but I would be happy to jump on the phone to give you some info about me. It would mean so much! 4 YOE at a major audio steaming service

If a job posting specifies certain education requirements that you don't have, is it still worth applying or will you be automatically skipped over?

Hi sharks and fishes,

Tier 3 guy here. I have around 2 years of experience in Dot Net Full Stack and Azure. Decent data structures and algorithms knowledge as well. Biggest of all I have decent fluency in French and German, since it was something that interested me since school time.

Is there a chance for me to secure an international offer, or should I go for M_Tech from IITs/NITs first before someone from abroad will take me seriously?

Thanks to anyone who read this. God bless you all!

I remember when I first started working on my thesis project. My adviser asked me to get some funding for it, but he didn't give me any advice about how to do that. He just told me that if I wanted money for my project, I'd have to go through some kind of committee process and submit an application for funding from them. Sure enough, after weeks of writing applications and waiting around for responses from the committee members (who were always too busy), I eventually got approved for funding!
