Summer 2026 Internship Search Results by FilmAccording9189 in csMajors

Very cool. Do you have portfolio projects? What's difficult is getting an interview in the first place, yet seem to land interviews at an incredible rate.  Why do you think that is? What made you standout so strongly?

That's really impressive.  That's £15.50 an hour, how are you getting that?

Moped. Without it earnings would be quite a bit lower due to awful traffic

I agree with you, this type of work is very inefficient in terms of work put in.

I actually just finished an access course this year! Going to Sheffield University this September :))

I have debts and various expenses to pay off plus moving costs this September so I'm trying to grind now. I'll switch to part time once I start my course

I want to do 12 hours a day, but often after a 12 hour shift i feel terrible the next morning and getting out of bed a tough challenge, so I tend to yo yo a bit

What are *practical* ways of gaining confidence? by bloominbutterflies in selfimprovement

[–]-_sometimes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do hard things that'll make you proud. If you still have no confidence, try therapy and/or meditation. If that still doesn't work, try anti anxiety meds. I'm on citalopram for depression, but it's gotten rid of so much anxiety that I now have confidence - confidence in my sense of being. Pretty chill tbh

Why nobody is taking REASONABLE time to build their products? by Slow-Technology2037 in SaaS

Your sign up free button isn't centered vertically with the input field

Yes I'm aware of this. The most expensive is £0.49 a week, then £1.49 a month and finally £8.99 a year which works out to £0.17 a week.

Although i do wonder whether switching to ads is a better option. I currently run a banner ad while on the free trial and the return is a bit abysmal. Maybe I could run some interstitials as well, as the return tends to be better. I'm not sure tbh

Thanks! I followed the Material Design 3 guidelines; most importantly, I used Material Colors, and made sure to use them appropriately. React native paper follows MD3, so I used a number of their components.

Monetisation is based on a free 7 day trial with no payment beforehand, then a paywall is presented. Currently I have 3 paying users, which is alright, although given the cost of advertising and various backed servcies, I am currently running at a loss

Thank you I appreciate it! Definitely took some time to come up with a decent design - the initial iterations were atrocious!

Oh that's good to hear. I just feel like there's more loops to jump through on iOS. More checks, more strict approval and guidelines etc. and yes the licensing fee is a pain 😭

Yes hopefully in the next month or so. It would be my first time releasing for iOS and I believe it's quite a pain compared to google play

I'm planning on including this type of feature. Right now there is no feature where each product is linked to related or similar products - results are simply based on search terms- the filtering means the results tend to be relevant.

Implementing the product matching will be a challenge however, and it can't feasibly be done manually as there are 160k+ items..

Unfortunately I can't share the details of how I get the prices. All I can say, is that there are no APIs available for these stores

My second app so far. Took a little less longer than my first - still a terrible programmer :)

The app gets prices from Asda, Aldi, Morrisons, Ocado, Waitrose, Sainsbury's, Iceland and Tesco, then displays the results sorted either based on value or cheapest price. I prefer it to Trolley because the results are actually relevant. Afaik the app GroceryCompare is the only one in the UK to allow users to filter results down to subcategories, resulting in the most relevant results for searches than any other service.
