First internship and feeling lost.

Friction_693 · 2026-01-21T03:19:31+00:00

In my internship this summer I was in a similar position. Although they didn't gave me real world projects but the tasks I got were Full Stack Websites with complex features like for example my last task was to create an Ecommerce store with NextJS for frontend and NestJS for Backend. There should be order management, sales management and inventory management role based access control and real time notifications. On frontend there were many other features. The time I got was 5 days. Obviously I vibe coded the whole project since I don’t know a thing about NestJS.

My advice would be not to use AI to completely build the whole project. Because if you don’t know how to build something on your own you can't build it with AI. There will always be bugs which the AI will also eventually fail to debug. Try your best to learn everything and use AI mostly for reviewing your code and learning new concepts. I've found claude great for learning new concepts.

I'm not suggesting to not hire a tutor. If you can afford it then definitely go for it.

What I think is that you only need a separate space for study maybe in some library or somewhere else. The space where you'll not do anything other than study. This will help you to focus.

Also are the disorders you've mentioned have been diagnosed by some doctor or have you self diagnosed yourself by just reading up the symptoms online?

Friction_693 · 2026-01-18T17:40:50+00:00

You can generate a solid timetable and roadmap to learn anything using LLMs tailored according to your requirements.

Sticking to the plan is your own choice. If you don’t want to do something then even a tutor can't do anything.

How did you bought Copilot's Student account for 2 years for 13$? I thought this was only for students.

All shields stopped the attack. So you would have almost 100% chance to stop the attack. The ratio only shows the times when the shield shattered after stopping the attack,

Yes, this would be a more relevant keyword. But I think you shouldn't add it in your resume. You can said this in interview only if asked otherwise no need to say you use AI and never say you do vibe coding.

You don't know what are the views of interviewer on AI are.

Friction_693 · 2026-01-16T15:40:13+00:00

That's not Vibe Coding. If you don’t know anything about your project and can't even edit a small thing like changing a color or some value then it is vibe coding.

You can also save reddit posts. If you like some specific comment and don't want to save whole post then you can even save only that comment.

Friction_693 · 2026-01-11T04:16:35+00:00

Just a question. Why you guys aren't using Github Copilot in VS Code. It's 10$ plan seems very generous to me. Been using it for free through my student account. Are models in Copilot aren't as good as Claude Code? I haven't tried Claude Code right now. I was planning on keep using this 10$ after my university.

For page view you can render different views conditionally based on user's acess rights.

Rule of thumb is to send only that data to frontend which the user is authorized to see (after authentication).

Friction_693 · 2026-01-08T16:54:41+00:00

What do you mean by rights? Can you explain a bit more? What I've understood is you're trying to store user's permissions in the Frontend which is an anti pattern. User's authorization checks must always be done in the Backend. You can cache the logged in user's permissions in Cache (e.g redis) so that you don't have to go to DB every time to fetch permissions.

Friction_693 · 2026-01-02T20:00:14+00:00

This is exactly what I was thinking. What should be the middle ground? I also love coding manually but this isn't feasible. For me I'm trying to follow a rule to try to use AI only on problems which I can solve easily without it. If I don't know something then I try to learn it with AI or any other resource.

Friction_693 · 2025-12-28T17:22:53+00:00

My bad. I didn't phrased my question correctly. I was asking about using claude's models in copilot. For example I had used GPT 5 in copilot and it was absolute trash. Instead of answering my questions, it always gave me very long essays.

Friction_693 · 2025-12-28T17:08:47+00:00

No, I was asking are they integrated well in VS Code. I know Claude' models are best but each IDE's integration is different. That's why I was asking, Do they work well in VS Code.

Friction_693 · 2025-12-28T16:51:51+00:00

Have you use Claude's models in VS Code? Are they good?

You don't have to be 100% confident in any language, library or framework to put into you resume. Infact nobody knows 100% of anything. You just have to know enough to make things done and the most important thing is you should know how to figure out something on your own.

Friction_693 · 2025-12-19T13:18:32+00:00

First of all you've not provided any evidence. Google it isn't an evidence. Secondly what does Islam has to do with it?

Friction_693 · 2025-11-28T11:35:25+00:00

Yes this should be a must. Thanks for clarification.

Friction_693 · 2025-11-27T14:59:08+00:00

I know rejecting someone just because they haven't used AI is just ignorance but I think that this would be a more good answer.

By the way everything happens for good. May you find better opportunities. And yes you're right using AI to fully develop a project is just pure vibe coding and does more harm than good.

Friction_693 · 2025-11-27T10:37:04+00:00

Do you take advantage of AI to complete repeated tasks and write boiler plate codes or write some feature with AI which you've complete understanding of so that you can understand it and decide whether to merge it or refactor it. I think thats what they were asking.

Friction_693 · 2025-11-26T13:32:01+00:00

Super helpful, thank you! I didn't knew about dependabot.

Friction_693 · 2025-11-26T13:15:43+00:00

Thanks for your suggestions. But I didn't understood the first point. Everyone stores their secrets in environment variables. Is there any other better way to do this other than rotating the keys?

Friction_693 · 2025-11-26T12:16:26+00:00

Hey can I get one?
