I use it a lot, and if you are getting these kinds of results you are either trolling, or just flat out not providing the details and guardrails required with your prompts.
I’ve been in software for decades, and if used correctly, yes it can accelerate velocity of building code out. 10x? No.. if you are lucky and careful perhaps 2-4x.
As ALWAYS the human should be in the loop and is on the hook for any code generated.
This mud has been around since 1990. I was one of the founders when I was in college, but no longer have the time to invest in it.
I've been in the industry for decades, and perform interviews for entry level up to and including principal level. This form of interviewing is absurd, invasive and useless. It will NOT tell you how good someone is... any monkey can write code, the real question I always try and get a handle on is:
Can they solve complex problems? How do they tear the problems apart? How do they apply technologies to do so?
In person (or video) is the ONLY way to tell how good they are.
Take home tests are useless.
Good on you for telling them no in a very professional way.
I hope you are able to find something soon, it's a really tough market out there!!!
Make the deposits higher, then pool the deposits of those that fail to meet the requirements. Then at the end of the year award the pooled money to the climbers who returned the most trash. As someone else said gamify it…

Is it time to go back to the plugin-hell called Eclipse?
He was indeed… I’ll just leave this here. Mr Rogers
OMG - This game gives me flashbacks to my Netrek days: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netrek
I totally agree with everything you said here. I just cannot imagine wearing ear buds for 15-18 hours straight every day as a solution for my hearing loss. I almost don't even notice my aids in my ears anymore.
PSA: Take care of your ears everyone, hearing loss sucks big time.
Yes, and I seriously doubt this is for moderate to severe loss. Most aids for that category get custom molds of the ear canal. Very likely this is about getting approval for the hearing test and subsequent audio curves.
As a hearing aid wearer myself, I would question the validity of this as a viable alternative to real hearing aids for moderate to severe loss.
Of course many people with hearing loss will use these instead of getting professionally tested and fitted.
This is what I do… find a comfortable position, then start relaxing all of your muscles.
Start with your toes .. given them a wiggle and relax them. Slowly move up your body into your torso… then down your arms, and finally your neck and head.
I’m usually out before I get to my arms.
Took this the other day a bit before the rain moved in.
Been super busy with life, but finally got back to cutting. This is the second of four chrome diopside stones I'm cutting.
Amazing and intense. One of the best I’ve ever witnessed.
Unfortunately this stone has a fracture and inclusion right at the cutlet.
Nothing I could do, so decided to finish the stone and hope it held together. Here is another view of the pavilion.
I like the color, too bad the light return wasn’t what I was looking for.
This is one of the most perfect cuts I've managed. The meet points are all as perfect as I could get, as well as the polish. I chose a more standard round cut than what my son designed as I wanted to lighten the stone more due to the overall color saturation of the material.
I'm going to cut a second calibrated to match, and get them set for my wife.
My son has really started to get into faceting. He bought a boule of hydrothermal emerald(man made) as he wanted to cut a design he made specific to emerald.
He sliced the emerald in half and gave me one half while he cut his up into the sizes he was going to facet.
I was mostly hands off with this and only really helped out when his stone popped off the dop. He did a great job!
This is one of two stones I’m cutting from a piece of morganite. This stone was started almost a month ago, and sat on the dop for weeks after I cut part of the crown and found an inclusion of bubbles that intersected a set of facets on one side looking like a fracture.
The perfectionist in me was pissed and frustrated and I walked away from the stone leaving it on the machine. I was forced to finish the stone thanks to my son who was planning on cutting a hydrothermal emerald. So I finished the stone, and you can’t even see the flaw without a loop.
I’m such an idiot and am so thankful that my son gave me a swift kick in the ass.
So my son, who is studying engineering, has gotten into faceting due to the math/science behind optimizing a cut. He designed this in GemCad Studio, and cut this stone this last weekend. Turned out incredible, and I wanted to share.
