Makes sense. How often will you really use that math? These days people get away with knowing very little math and relying on frameworks to handle the tuff parts.
I guess what is the potential reward in the real world?
I am building a Knowledge Transfer platform for software engineers that let's people make documents with video recordings, screen recordings, voice recordings, diagram making, document hosting, and more all in one place. The goal is to put all the features native to the platform, that way the user can just click and use rather than be redirected to a third party integration.
After starting my first job out of college as a software engineer I have yet to meet my colleagues in person and it has already been almost a year and a half. The team I am on has been working together for years in person so they have great relationships but since I only interact with them online and almost always over Teams chat I find it super difficult to connect. I make sure to set up video coffee chats with people in the company but it still doesn’t feel the same . At this point I doubt I will ever meet my first work colleague team since I am planning to change jobs. In a grand scheme of things it isn’t a big deal but this Covid thing has really impacted some mile stones like senior year of college, graduation ceremony, and now young professional life.
The solution: I think there should still be an option of remote work, since most people don’t need to be in the office at all time but everything about the “office culture” needs to change. Maybe office size should be smaller, more WeWork team meet-ups or meet at coffee shops, meet in the library or public space what ever but having a big empty office might not be the ideal going forward. This is an exciting time and I do hope after the pandemic is all done with that we can start figuring it out
