In you /g/entoomens' opinion, which programming job :
>1. Is the most prestigious
>2. Is the least prestigious
>3. Pays the most
1. compiler backend
2. web frontend
3. COBOL and other antiquated shit
In my place at least:
1. Meme Scientist
2. Weeb dev (IT/hardware is even lower but they rarely program)
2. Data Scientist, definitely. Those fuckers earn crazy money for very dubious value
>>58080895
basically this
add HDL stuff to most paying as well
>>58080877
I'm a front-end web dev and I can vouch for least prestigious
>>58080895
Retard here
What's compiler backend?
>>58081052
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compiler#Back_end
Why does front end get Shit on so much?
I thought backend weebdevs were known as unappreciated whipping boys
>>58081078
I'm >>58081037
Most front end """devs""" know html, css and how to copy and paste jquery snippets. The barrier to entry is low and it's full of scrubs. Very few of us can build things from scratch.
>>58081078
>unappreciated whipping boys
with gigantic paychecks if your in the right field
frontend is literally just design and copy paste
Where do data engineers fit into this hierarchy?
Gonna be graduating from CS in a couple of semesters. My focus was on networks and CPU design (basic stuff). What kind of jobs can I hope to apply for and what can I expect to get paid?
>>58080877
1. model checkers
2. java code monkey
3. f# for finance sector
>>58081273
$80k-100k
>>58081139
>frontend is literally just design and copy paste
Looks like someone hasn't implemented a proper architecture with a framework like Angular or React. Good JavaScript developers are very hard to find.
>>58080877
kek'd at that picture, OP
>>58080895
the only reason COBOL shit pays so much because all the people working on it are over 50
>>58081420
>>58081130
>Very few of us can build things from scratch.
Good. Stop pretending a website is an application and shitifying the internet, you fucks.
>>58080962
Cool I've got a Data Scientist position for my summer job. Wew
>>58081452
>Stop pretending a website is an application
Why the fuck not? Runtime featues are nice, I don't want to refresh the page so I can see new content (even in the context of 4chan I and many other people use 4chan X or forks of it)
>>58081496
From what I've seen, you'lll need a PhD to really make the $$$, but tbqh that's just a meme, not actually necessary to do the job. Startup founders just like the idea of having a shitload of Doctors on the payroll so they can tell investors, even if all they do is work their dicks all day
>>58081367
Does finance sector programming pay much?
I know there's insane money for C++ devs in quant hedge funds but you need to be Hackerman™ to get it
I know Jane Street use OCaml, they probably pay a shitload

If you can put up with learning an APL-derived language, you can pretty much name your price.
>>58080877
1.) AI
2.) UX/UI
3.) Java/Scala Senior Dev
1. nodejs engineer
2. systems engineer
3. enterprise software architect
>>58081579
What about making a BCMS (idk it's like the CompTIA+ but more advance)
See the Waikato uni website
>>58080962
Well, at least they can count to three.
You are asking a bunch of LARPers about jobs?
