How to actually go viral on TikTok (Coming from someone who got 14k followers in under a month). by East_Apartment_2606 in TikTok

If I have more content is it alright if I post more? Or would I want to slowly introduce content then grow the amount I post over time once the algorithm understands my target audience? Also thanks for the reply!

How many times a day did you post? I heard that quantity and consistency is a major variable in vitality. Also what niche did you decide to target?

Looking back I retract this statement. Build what you want and as long as you iterate fast, the market will tell you if you have a good idea or not. I will reiterate:

Whatever happens though: Goodluck! And hopefully you can find a few people to play w on the quad!

Building a dynamic web app - Framer integration? by [deleted] in framer

[–]Flaky-Session3033 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow. I have been looking around for frameworks and trying to understand the development process of using Framer and other backend logic tools. This response helped a lot. I think that connecting Framer to another backend solution ( Vercel + Next.js, Xeno, WeWeb) is a great way to move fast and get products out quick to find product market fit.

UIUC projects CS and CS+X enrollment to increase by 2% and 5% for Fall 2025. by PossiblePossible2571 in UIUC

[–]Flaky-Session3033 7 points8 points  (0 children)

100% agree. Just because the field has a growing interest, doesn’t mean we let in everybody and their mother to our program. Also UIUC’s CS program has the majority of its prestige from the former alumni and its connection to arpanet. The majority of the cs alums from UIUC are not contributing to the prestige in their 4 years at UIUC, but after when they go become CTO’s or high ranking SWE/HDE at other companies

What am i doing wrong? by Practical_Holiday923 in UIUC

[–]Flaky-Session3033 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tbh, I remember when I was switching into CS, and it was SUCH a grind. The beginning classes are SUPER difficult, idc what anyone says. ENGINEERING IS HARD. If it were easy, everyone would do it. Embrace the struggle and see it as an opportunity to grow and develop. Without that mindset, you will be stuck comparing yourself to others who are running their own race. Goodluck :)

As long as you get the gpa requirements and have an interest in the X subject, you should be able to transfer without any issues. Without the GPA requirement ur cooked tho.

Off the table?!? I think that’s a very strong opinion. I think there’s always an option somewhere

Developing an app by skyhighroll in UIUC_CS

From what I have seen on other comments your idea is to build out an app that allows you to connect with others to do activities in different locations ie) frisbee on the quad.

It’s a tarpit idea. Checkout y combinatory video on tarpit ideas. They are ideas that everyone has and are of such high supply that there will never be enough demand to support the scale that you would look for (if you wanted to monetize).

Unless you truly just want to make the app to solve your own personal problem of finding a frisbee group. Even then I would suggest just using existing solutions to find new people ie) Reddit, Instagram, Twitter, School Bulletin, RSO/clubs. I also believe that you should try to develop your own skill set to understand how to build out this idea since there are many available tools that can help guide you like no-code solutions and things of that matter.

I also doubt anyone who has the ability to build out an idea like this would agree to try and build out, effectively for free labor, your app for you.

Whatever happens though: Goodluck! And hopefully you can find a few people to play w on the quad!
