If you're getting paid as a software engineer in the USA[1] and you're making market rate for where you live, you can easily save >>50% of your salary and retire in 10 years.
Not well in the Bay Area, at least.

Not well in the Bay Area, at least.
I love that caring how you look is just "narcissism" now. :)
The other problem I see w/ the ML is that, due to the nature of data sets, it's going to be mostly white people who benefit. Minorities famously do poorly.
Do you know any poor people? Ask them. I guarantee they've been told this in some form. Hell, ask anyone who is underprivileged.
Prove it.
So you helping others is for your own self-satisfaction, and not to help others? You're looking for someone to convine you to be happy with the decision of helping others. That's what all your comments here read like. :)
I'm not surprised you're from the Bay Area, given that.
It is in fact called community involvement! It was my mistake.
Maybe in America? Not so in other countries.
Have you ever interacted with the under-privileged? Plenty of smart people feel their lives are doomed because of the way society is structured against them.
I don't think so. It's been a bit since I read up on Visa stuff (and I imagine it doesn't matter to you as an American citizen) but there are distinctions between programmer / software developer / etc.
I mean we had mandatory volunteer hours? But in general, yes, school is just a day-care and nothing more.
I haven't had enough time to read into it (nor do I have enough experience to evaluate), but it seems like what you're talking about?
