I'm unemployed. What should I do

Beer money and online gigs for a start, just don't invest any money you don't have in order to earn any passive income. Start by earning first, you could also take some online courses.. Now with Covid, many schools aren't that picky when it comes to new students.

Sell stuff on ebay, if your handsome and have a good personality twitch stream.

>online gigs
What would those be? I'm not getting on fiverr, that's too jew slavery for me.

>daaaaaaaayaaaamn!!!

Ditch your gf and teach English in japan. Find a rich supreme waifu and live off gibs.

So you have your phd and can't find a job? Or can you be a prof in the US with less?

You should look into passive income like orion protocol. It'll go live in a month or so and then money for nothing starts rolling in. Current staking returns are like 170% which isn't great but it will ramp up quickly over time.

I'm not american. I'm one semester away from finishing my phd. I wouldn't be able to find work on my city, as every person that worked on that college is pretty much tainted because of the public attention this shit brought.
If I wanted to stay on academia I would have to relocate to another city. To be quite honest I want to do something other than academia. If a 19 yo whore can destroy an institution like this, I don't want to be part of this world anymore.

I quit academia (quit my phd) too user. What are you studying? I was doing a chemistry program but went for the learn to code meme and it worked out pretty well

I'm a chemist too, my thesis is about metrology and equipment measurement. Basically, how would the redefined Kilo will affect my country.
I thought about the coding meme, but I haven't code in a decade. I feel the learning curve is way too steep. I'm looking into the soap bussines, unironically.

What is your phd on, user? Why did you quit?

Wow nice user, I hope you could finish it would suck to be screwed so late into the process.

I was doing materials chemistry, focusing on organic conductors and semi-conductors. It was mostly synthetic work toward stabilized solid state radicals. There was some device fabrication with a chem eng group but I quit with a masters before I got too much into that.

At the time I think I was just feeling jaded, and the employment prospects in industry were pretty bad, especially in Canada, and tenture track jobs are so insanely competitive. I'm not a huge fan of synthesis to begin with, but I was really interested in the application side of things and it's sort of where I ended up. I applied all over for a good while after I quit and didn't get anywhere, so ended up doing some shitty tutorials for web apps online and I got a job no problem.

I kinda regret it in some ways desu though. I have a pretty good job now (fully remote, good pay, benefits, relaxed, etc) but it's not exciting like science is, but I also know I was having a rough time when I was actually grinding out reactions day after day after day so I think I might be romantacizing it after the fact. But I've still thought about going back so idk

How long did it take you to get enough coding experiemce for a real job? Did you have prior experience with that?

I knew the very very basics from an intro to java course I took in my freshman year, but it was pretty much all forgotten once I picked it back up again. I spent probably 7 months or so, but you could really condense that if you were trying to do it as fast as possible.
I paid $25 bucks a month for an online program for the first bit to get started then just did my own projects after getting a framework down

File for unemployment
She's average

I should note my very first job was an intern level meant for college students pretty much, but I did have interviews for full junior positions. I did that internship for 4 months, transferred to a better one for 4 months, then that place promoted me to a salaried junior dev. Its only been a year since then and I already get a lot of recruiters messaging me on linkedin.
Compared to trying to find a decent job in chemistry being in software is like having cheat codes

I feel you user, I would also miss the lab if I quit science. That's why I want to make soaps.

Maybe a dumb q, bit what's the best way to make progress? Should you copy blocks of code that do what you want and then try to understand it afterwards or try to build it yourself from smallest functions? I don't want to waste time, I feel like the first is more practical

Everyone has different ways of learning but my personal opinion is to do the exact opposite. Find something simple you want to make and try as hard as you can to do it by yourself. I think that forces you to really understand how something will work, you can't convince yourself you understand something when you don't, it's more rewarding, and it just exercises your coding brain. But just go through tutorials to do the basics.
But that being said, that has always been my approach to learning, regardless of the subject. I would stare at a problem for hours until I either solved it or gave it 110% of my effort. I know other people who think that approach is stupid

Online tutoring. These whores ruin everything. Fuck them and get fired. Don't fuck them and they say they were raped. Best bet is to do online tutoring where you can prove you were not physically near anyone.

>not exciting like science is
I just learn to physicists on YouTube and get the same excitement. Listened to Lawrence Krauss and Brian Cox interviewed by Joe Rogan while riding my bike. Neat stuff. Always more to learn. Philosophy of consciousness and reality as well.
