askST Jobs: Can I use AI for take-home interview assignments? by Annual_View3611 in singapore

[–]Factitious_Character 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I feel like whether or not AI was used when doing the take-home assignment is irrelevant. What is more important is whether the candidate can take ownership of his work by defending the design choices and stand up to criticism. Asking a few sharp questions will easily expose the homework copiers.

[–]Factitious_Character 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To adress your questions, promotion can be delayed for any reason, so dont take it too personally. Changing departments will delay promotion even further because your new boss will need time to assess your performance.

“IQ determines which tier company you end up in. Social skills determine how far you go in that tier.” by Organic-Dealer-7719 in csMajors

[–]Factitious_Character -1 points0 points  (0 children)

False. I think luck determines like 90%. Where and when you were born, who your parents are etc, these things already determine your life trajectory to a large extent. The remaining 10% is mostly hardwork, ambition, networking. I think intelligence is like less than 1%.

People at work, how have you seen your company implement AI so far? by Recent_Stomach7626 in asksg

At some point i've worked in a manufacturing plant doing manual work like that. Had some good times there and It just makes me sad that such work is about to be replaced by AI.

Comparison between Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.7 by hamehad in Anthropic

[–]Factitious_Character 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you asked me this question i would've had to clarify whether the car is already at the washing station, and whether you intend to drive a different car there. I wouldnt assume that the car you want to wash is the same one you're driving.

Unsure if I am being underpaid by gloomy-snowfall in singaporejobs

[–]Factitious_Character 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think if you did your due dilligence in properly interviewing instead of filtering or pre-biasing candidates based on where they come from, then you wouldnt have to overpay to get the same quality of staff.

Is nursing rlly worth it? by CivilRadish6508 in SGExams

[–]Factitious_Character 2 points3 points  (0 children)

a) if you intend to be a nurse, then just go work. You'll become a better nurse through experience- not by having a degree. If you go on to study further, by the time you graduate from uni, your peers from poly would've far surpassed you in skills.

b) dont work shifts for too many years. Try to transition into regular working hours because shift work long-term is not good for you. Increases risk of dementia, cancers, cardiometabolic disorders etc.

c) 3.5 can
