I see lots of people online say they feel pressured to respond right away, but I've found that for my friends it's simply not the case...? There are some that respond very quickly, but most of them respond very slowly. They're really friendly when we see each other in person, but will take days to respond.

Hi all! I'm a CS undergrad senior, graduating this December. I have internship experience at two companies and have completed multiple personal projects. I also completed a practicum term where my team worked directly with a client team to fulfil their needs. My experience largely lies in web development, but I have also worked on desktop and mobile projects before.

I'm looking for any entry-level full-time software engineering position. I'm happy to talk to anyone interested!

I feel like it's almost always going to be easier to just use an app natively than to use it via ChatGPT Apps

Sora 2 10 months ago

Their anime vid gen is really, really impressive. The results I've seen aren't /good/ from an industry-standard (nothing compared to the likes of the Demon Slayer movie I watched in theatres recently), but I legitimately couldn't tell that it was AI-generated. Massive step up from Sora 1 and other vid gen models.

Here's to hoping that the industry will adapt to have it aid animators for in-betweening and other things that supplement production. Anime studios are infamously terrible with overworking their employees, so I legitimately see benefits coming from this tool if devs can get it to function as proper frame interpolation (where animators do the keyframes themselves and the model in-betweens).

After checking the links I can confirm that they are the same. I stumbled upon this on my dash and was like "oh my God this is the funniest thing ever" and it's so nice to find the actual original source! Thanks for the heads up!

Gen Z junior dev here - I haven't actually worked with anyone my age professionally, so I can't comment on that, but I will say most of my peers who are still unemployed or students seem pretty pessimistic about the job market right now and are looking pretty earnestly for positions, ie they'll take whatever is offered and have applied to many places (people have told me 500+)

This is gonna sound super pretentious, but I genuinely don't remember a time in which I wasn't into creative writing, haha! I still have little scribbled pages from toddler-me's stories. Writing is just something I can't stop doing, and my brain will leak out of my ears if I don't get the ideas out of my head and onto (metaphorical) paper somehow

I have no formal training, but I've watched a lot of writing-related YouTube videos and read books on writing. For you, I recommend just opening a blank doc (digital or just normal paper) without thinking about all that. I think consuming a lot of writing instructional resources up front is pretty paralyzing and demotivating, because it's easy to overthink. A trap a lot of writers (including me! Been there, done that) fall into is thinking about writing instead of actually writing.

If you have any ideas at all you wanna explore, just don't overthink it and get some words out (without worrying about stuff like prose or characterization or anything else). When I was younger, I'd browse https://www.tumblr.com/writing-prompt-s a lot as they have really interesting ideas.

Hope this is helpful! Let me know if you have any other questions; I could write about writing all day.

Oh my goodness, I'm in love with this site! One of my favourite things about HN is all of the cool sites I discover through the community :D
