Hi Baxate! My name is Alan, I'm 20 years old and from Sweden, interested in becoming a SWE working in San Francisco. A bit of background on my current situation: I studied economics in high school and graduated a year ago, meaning I most likely have to read up on a few more subjects to be eligible for computer science. My target is getting in to SFSU - computer science fall next year. I have contacted a company that provides free guidance for studying abroad. I guess my question is, is SFSU a good choice for becoming a SWE working there? And what would you do if you were in my position (other than studying the required subjects)?

Hey Baxate, I’m entering my freshmen year of college and I was wondering when I should start practicing leetcode problems. I don’t want to fall behind because I only have Python experience, and I plan to graduate in 3 years.

Hey man I randomly stumbled upon youre vid and you seem like a very helpful person. Just wanted some advice, I just got hired as a junior software engineer and everything is going well. Im learning alot at my job but the downside is I am not getting paid much. I want to improve my skills so that I can find a better position. Currently focusing on system design. Any advice on what I should learn and do to get a better paying job

Hi, you always talk about ways to go into tech by studying CS in college you pose it as the best option (which I agree) but many don't have this opportunity. How can they break into tech (when you always don't recommend bootcamps and self taught) You should include non CS graduates who want to break into tech but don't have the opportunity to go to CS college

Hello Baxate! I’m an upcoming sophomore student at uni and I would like to gain work experience. However, I lived in the US for quite a while and I’m on a dependent visa(non-working visa) rather than a student visa. Hence, I’m not allowed to apply for paid internships. I don’t want to convert into a student visa yet until my 3rd year but do you recommend applying unpaid internship as your first internship? If not, do you recommend any other ways to gain work experience? Thank you for your time to read this!
