After 11 months and 800 applications, I've successfully landed a W-2 as a software engineer! So many people helped me along the way with valuable insight and motivation. I'm pleased to have made it to the other side and look forward to helping others the same way I was helped.
I just used ChatGPT & Notion to create & document a complete meal plan with literally 15,625 (6 meals/5 options each) ways to eat, that are specific to my desired fitness goals, caloric intake, and macronutrient ratios. It even took into consideration my preferred cuisine 😳
And here I was looking at cooking instagram videos, googling the nutritional value of everything. I quickly got overwhelmed😅 Here's the link in case anyone wants to see what I'm gonna be eating 📓notion.so/ChatGPT-Meal-Plans…

This is Air
And it’s 500ms away from making a lot of jobs redundant
It can perform full 5-40 minute long sales & customer service calls over the phone that sound like a human
It can perform actions autonomously across 5,000 unique applications

Learned about React/TS prop annotations today. The greatest hurdle I overcame was that one of my files was jsx instead of tsx :') lmao. 2nd was do not include '.ts' in imports. 3rd was vercel being able to host env variables.

Alright y'all. I'm going to start building in public. For my first act, I'm building a user-generated archive for keyboard enthusiasts. To run this for free.99, I'll be using Next.js paired with Supabase. It's my first time using Next, Supabase, and Typescript so should be fun😮
I reflect often on the catalysts of my decision to become a SWE. This paradox is really interesting and I think my version is equally ironic. Only after arriving at what I thought was "good" in my career, was I afforded the ability to reflect on whether it was what I even wanted.

Interview Breaker — a ChatGPT tool that tells you what to say in job interviews.
AI will upend every process with just a few lines of code. We’ve already seen it with school essays. Interviews will need to adapt, too.

I gave GPT-4 a budget of $100 and told it to make as much money as possible.
I'm acting as its human liaison, buying anything it says to.
Do you think it'll be able to make smart investments and build an online business?

I like to listen to this plane crash podcast when flying (called Black Box Down). It’s like a free 4D experience 😀
Just finished a coding assessment for a job. I literally learned Python so that I could take this assessment. Just wanted to share this spread with y'all. It's so satisfying to me🤧😮💨
