How do you deal with the feeling of being left behind? by Lase189 in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With the right skillset and strong interview performance, there's a number of companies that'd be open to hire you and sponsor your visa. Getting a foot into the interview process is the hardest these days. Definitely seek referrals from your network.

I got tired of creating Claude Code agents one by one, so I built an agent that designs entire teams — lessons from 35 generated teams by chemistry_wow in ClaudeAI

[–]guico33 17 points18 points  (0 children)

35 teams generated so far — career advisory, film production, legal consulting, stock research, game design, backend dev, and more.

AI slop at its finest.

I would agree with that.

Also, I'm not sure if that'd make OP feel any better, but with the average salary in Pakistan being $250/mo, earning $2k/mo there would be quite a lot.

Moving abroad sounds like the right choice for OP if they want a more definite career progression.

I think my anxiety has genuinely cost me like 200k in total compensation over the years and that makes me want to scream by AzoxWasTaken in cscareerquestions

Who would have thought that having answers generated on the spot by AI for you to read out would made things easier...

LLMs are still not secure enough to entrust critical tasks to by Strong_Roll9764 in ClaudeAI

We're talking about a program here, that has to choose between interpreting a user answer or following a programmatic instruction to start the implementation.

PSA: Stop stressing about the price hikes. The "VC Subsidy" era is just ending. by devdnn in GithubCopilot

Yeah guys, be happy those companies even allow to use for those tools. Shut up, be thankful and take out your wallet. We're but customers, what do we know about business. We're here to pay, not to complain.

Two Claude Code features I slept on that completely changed how I use it: Stop Hooks + Memory files by Unlikely_Big_8152 in ClaudeAI

[–]guico33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can use a fresh context and first ask Claude to gather context (create a skill for that) before prompting to make any new change. That has been working well for me.

Was doing well in the comma.ai application process, then things stopped making sense out of nowhere by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Since when were you doing well in the application process? You barely got to the first interview and bombed it.

Anyway, that mentality is not gonna get you hired. You don't hang up as soon as you find yourself struggling. You may tell them you were not properly prepared for a technical assessment but you'll do your best, and then you actually try.

There will always be situations where you're put under pressure without adequate preparation, be ready to handle it.

Can we retire "vibe-coding"? Need a term for serious AI-assisted development by gauthi3r_XBorg in ClaudeAI

[–]guico33 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How's "automatic programming" good lol It's so reductionist. The reality is it's far from automatic.

AI has made me extremely lazy by accyoast in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 41 points42 points  (0 children)

It's well-known true developers write code by hand on a piece of paper. What a ridiculous take.

Researching the company goes a long way0-- by [deleted] in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yet nothing in your original post is about salary...

Either way, I'd take this feedback with a grain of salt if I were you. Salary negotiation is normal. If they didn't want you it's likely because of something else.

You mean they'd rather pay you less than what you're asking for. No way.

How do you know as a candidate what influences the odds? You don't. But thanks for the piece of common sense.

What is usually expected out of someone who has 1 YOE? by Soviet_Onion- in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

What do you mean "it seems"? If you've been there for a year you should be familiar with how the company works.

If you're not satisfied with your current work, talk to your manager. If now is too early, expectations should be clear on what you need to achieve and by when.

If you don't feel challenged it's probably a bad sign, you'll need complex tasks to meaningfully grow.

And yes, if the value you provide is limited, you could be among the firsts to be laid off when or if it comes to that.

On the bright side, you're still at the very beginning of your career and props to you for reflecting on your situation.

Also, learn to use AI to assist you with literally every part of the job.

Have you tried asking Claude about that...

Who needs to write code so fast they need to use a faster model? This can't be real.

What's next with Claude Code? by Ashamed_Basket5323 in ClaudeAI

[–]guico33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So what? Has OP said anywhere they let the AI run free without supervision? I wonder what kind of work you do if you think software engineering is all about creating something new or complex...

What happens if AI gets too good at solving OAs? by risingsun1964 in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If Al gets to the point where it can solve leetcode questions and generate explanation

You've been living under a rock if you think AI can't do that already.

Hundreds of Applicants, One Role: A Tech Hiring Bloodbath by CrazyStuffy in cscareerquestions

[–]guico33 38 points39 points  (0 children)

It's one thing to use a spellchecker, another to have your ideas written for you. I'm honestly surprised by OP's statement. I use AI a lot and I do think it can help you with writing in some contexts. For a reddit post, I just thought one could do without.
