Or heck, even be virtually unkillable? Because here's the thing; LLMs tend to do best with languages and frameworks they have training material from. At the moment, that means they're amazing at coding in JavaScript,…

As in, every application for every job is viewable in full by users or the general public, along with information about how far that individual got in the process (rejected before first interview, rejected after…

Okay, I've realised recently that not having a portfolio isn't exactly ideal if you're working in tech, especially given how many jobs seem to expect it now. So I've been planning out a personal site with portfolio,…
