Hi! Sort of, tried to rest a lot. Bit anxious, because in 2 weeks I'm gonna switch jobs... :/

Where do you work? I am sure you will do well! As I like to say, "Keep calm, and panic on the inside"

Right now, I am a senior software developer, but at my new place I will be a senior AI researcher.

Sounds interesting! Why are you worried? It sounds like you are good at your work!

Been a few days. Did you make the transition? If so, how is it going?
Renslay

Nah, it's not that quick! I'm still on my notice period, and will work for a couple of more weeks before the transition.

Ok! How well does it pay? Referring to your current job. Just curious if it is worth considering. How much experience is needed?
Renslay

The payment is about 40% better; and yes, it was the tipping point. Otherwise I would not accept the a new offer (not even for a 10 or maybe 20% increase).
I'm pretty experienced on the field, doing these things for almost 10 years by now; although the research experience is only 5 years in industry, but I also have a PhD, so that's another 5 years of experience.

Ok, thanks! I am searching for at home jobs that do not require much computer experience!

You see, I lack in 2 things: 1- computer smarts and 2- a computer lol

That's okay. :)
How old are you, may I ask? And what are your main interests (outside of cubing of course).

I am 18 born October 6 2007
I cube hardcore, so it has been a while since I did something remotely interesting. Oh, I used to make crazy dangerous things with Legos! What about you, if I may ask as well?
Renslay
Renslay
Ah, I'm getting close to 40 :D Not there yet, but almost... (Gosh, that sounds old!)
Apart from cubing I like pc gaming and playing Dungeons&Dragons. Also love programming, but since it is my main job, I tend to avoid it outside of working hours. :) Still, I had a couple of fun hobby projects in the past.

Yeah, you are ancient lol jk!
Do you like Tetris? I used to try it, and was halfway decent, but got into cubes. I tried making time for both, and always felt adrenaline after tears and was doing cube! I guess that is how I got into big cubes lol

Wasn't really a fun of tetris, but I always loved logic puzzles and brain teasers.
Jared Burkhart
Jared Burkhart
Cool! I love pressure, but I can see why you like logic and teasers. They make me mad until I decide to go genius and just solve eventually. Can you tell me what puzzles you like?
Renslay

One of my all time favorite logic puzzle is below. I love it because it's a sort-of meta-puzzle, meaning you, as a reader, has fewer information than the persons in the story itself - and yet, a single, unique solution is deducible (assuming everyone is capable of following perfect logical reasoning).
