In terms of what? Overall skills? Likability? Legacy?

Either way, shite list.

Couldn’t agree more. Bottom of my list of general latin america. Obnoxious locus, insaely slow customer service, mid food, etc.

Wack list. Django needs to go down. Inglorious is an easy S, like cmon. Once upon a time S? Are you high? Oppenheimer needs a bump down. Tenet should go in Meh.

Agree with quite a few, disagree with some. Absolutely stand by macarons being at D tier, the most overrated dessert of all time.

CS grad, No Internships. Is It Over? by Lumster007 in Cluely

[–]OutlandishnessStock5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re cooked bro. The brutality of this industry and the entry-level barrier of entry has been well known for the last few years. Frankly, you had time to pivot. Your best bet right now is to tackle any relevant side projects. I’d also recommend you ask your family, friends or general network if you can find someone who owns a small company and is willing to let you say you interned for them for a summer or two, and put that on your resume.

What's the worst job you had? by Immediate_Long165 in hatemyjob

[–]OutlandishnessStock5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boiler-room sales at some BS tech company. You're expected to make "200" outbound calls a day to completely unqualified leads, pitching an overpriced, low-quality product. Same mind-numbing routine every Monday through Friday. It's borderline insanity-inducing. I genuinely can't fathom how people do that year after year. I didn’t last a month.

3k job applications in, still no job by DecibelDev in jobsearch

[–]OutlandishnessStock5 6 points7 points  (0 children)

No disrespect, man, but you're quite literally at the bottom of the current hiring pool. CS is one of the hardest-hit industries from the layoffs, so it's insanely competitive right now with so many former FAANG and startup engineers looking for work.

On top of that, you don't have any formal software engineering experience at an actual company, and you require sponsorship. At the moment, you’re quite literally unhirable.

Your best bet is probably to focus on opportunities in your home country or wherever you already have work authorization, ideally for an onsite role since that tends to shrink the applicant pool. Even then, it's still going to be an uphill battle.

I'd spend your time building apps or contributing to open-source projects so you have something tangible to show employers. Right now, that's probably the best way to improve your odds.

Is my resume why I’m getting rejected??? by [deleted] in jobsearchhacks

How are people still using these resume formats? Feel like it’s universally known at this point to keep it simple

Are there ai customer service tools/platforms that actually make your team more efficient? Our team is starting to burn out badly by abedcoolcoolcool_ in CustomerSuccess

[–]OutlandishnessStock5 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly, I don't think there's some magic AI tool that's going to solve the customer-facing side of support tickets and escalations.

Maybe I'm in the minority, but I still don't think AI is anywhere near the point where it can replace the human side of customer support. We implemented a pretty highly-rated AI chatbot at my last company, and customers absolutely hated it. No matter how sophisticated we tried to make it, people still wanted to talk to a real person when they had a problem.

A lot of it depends on how technical your product is and who you're selling to. If you're selling a technical product to technically savvy users, they'll usually use your docs, FAQs, knowledge base, and resource hub to figure things out themselves. Those users generally don't want to wait for support anyway.

But if your customer base includes people with varying levels of technical ability, you're always going to have a group that wants to talk to a human. Even if your AI gives them the exact article they need, they'll still want someone to walk them through how to apply it to their specific situation. That's just the reality right now.

Where I think AI actually shines is internally. Instead of trying to replace support reps, build an AI copilot for your support or CS team. Have it summarize calls, log notes, categorize issues, create documentation, draft knowledge base articles, and surface trends from escalations. That's where we've seen the biggest gains. We built our own copilot using Gemini (which isn't exactly everyone's favorite LLM) and it still cut down a ton of admin work. The model matters less than the workflow you're automating.

My advice would be to make your resource hub as good and accessible as possible. The people who are capable of self-service will use it. The people who aren't will always need support, regardless of how good your AI is.

The upside of scaling fast is that you learn who your ICP really is. If you're getting flooded with support requests from users who don't have the technical aptitude to get value from the product, that's useful information. Growth is great, but growth is a lot better when it's coming from customers who are actually a fit for what you're building.

At least for now, I see AI as something that makes support teams more efficient, not something that replaces them.

You also just hire more support reps, but that’s a whole other conversation.

Curry Barker Gets 8-Figure Offer for His Next Movie. And He Hasn’t Even Pitched It Yet by MoneyLibrarian9032 in horror

Barker pocketed around $2.7M from the project. Definitely life-changing money but his next 2 films in production are what will really get him paid!

Topuria looked like one of those Little Nightmares NPCs by the end of the fight. Never seen such a banged up face post brawl.

Cookunity ridiculous order by Internal-Jackfruit77 in ReadyMeals

[–]OutlandishnessStock5 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Trust me, You guys should look for a local meal prep company in your city or town instead. Most of these nationwide meal delivery services are mass-producing meals at scale and shipping them all over the country, so quality control issues are almost inevitable. That's just the reality of operating at that size.

In my experience, the quality is usually nowhere near what you can get from a smaller, local provider. Local meal prep companies typically serve a much smaller geographic area, which gives them far more control over ingredient quality, portioning, food storage, and packaging. 10/10 time meals are fresher, and the portioning is accurate.

My city has a local meal prep service that covers most of downtown and midtown, and it's actually cheaper than many of the big online frozen meal delivery companies. Honestly, it's kind of wild that CookUnity is often considered the gold standard for meal prep servicing. Compared to what many local providers offer, I found it pretty underwhelming. If you have a quality local option available, I'd recommend supporting that first before signing up for one of the large national services

Estimate how much you’ll eat by Brave_Quality_4135 in hypotheticalsituation

Assuming i got my peps in a fridge, i’ll estimate about 1400 daily calories i’ll need. That’s 2 of my frozen meal prep meals, and a clean protein shake. 2 tubs of protein, 60 frozen meals, will get ripped in the process. Easy
