No, that's ChatGPT's writing, not mine :)

Folks, I was a PhD student once, in a non-home country, and just wished to know what was it like to go and work in the industry, being a programmer, or started a company. Torn apart between choices, I just wished there was a totally unbiased counselor to talk to. I couldn't do that with my supervisor since he always encouraged me to finish the thesis (of course).

Heck, had ChatGPT exist back then, I would have had more infos and made decision easier. So why not launching one, on the back of the collective "intelligence" and "creativity" of large language model.

About building the product: Yes, I call OpenAI's API, but need to do some 'prompt engineering', updating temperature along the conversation.

Just tell me what you think. Thanks.","time":1676453973,"title":"Show HN: Explore careers that you don't know even exist","type":"story","url":"https://careergpt.ai"}],[34579175,{"by":"coreyhn","descendants":1832,"id":34579175,"kids":[34579718,34580345,34583136,34580018,34579686,34579581,34579727,34580031,34581504,34584316,34579655,34579763,34580314,34584805,34586086,34584742,34580975,34580765,34583698,34580200,34580393,34581023,34579640,34581544,34579607,34582998,34582208,34579506,34580594,34585008,34579982,34583301,34580437,34582460,34581402,34581260,34581070,34585567,34580918,34580017,34581932,34580050,34581161,34579733,34582276,34581309,34580265,34581002,34584318,34580755,34583082,34580362,34580273,34580788,34580614,34580615,34583423,34583357,34581432,34584911,34583674,34581562,34580151,34581025,34580949,34581507,34586156,34580052,34588362,34581247,34583341,34579968,34582308,34580885,34582148,34580954,34579642,34581763,34581494,34593074,34579844,34582972,34581139,34580070,34580135,34585079,34586805,34586788,34580678,34590358,34579648,34579895,34582197,34585872,34602785,34581238,34580578,34579588,34581424,34580861,34579615,34585157,34617789,34579585,34587246,34585647,34581377,34582281,34584734,34579665,34579990,34589040,34599952,34585888,34586674,34587107,34585261,34583965,34583186,34582739,34580414,34583364,34579945,34581405,34581131,34580385,34581945,34583115,34580613,34584274,34590366,34579633,34598711,34579598,34586124,34580020,34583564,34581636,34637505,34580371,34586343,34582305,34602139,34581156,34596774,34582341,34590309,34583184,34580766,34579583,34580523,34591013,34589677,34580965,34592411,34582895,34584703,34580785,34586907,34581040,34584338,34583587,34582803,34588563,34582571,34586035,34581886,34580515,34583159,34581560,34585703,34582007,34580296,34580142,34583083,34581425,34580154,34585190,34581028,34583532,34583928,34588103,34579672,34581092,34580503],"score":691,"text":"I was helping my son learn to write and realized I’ve been holding the pencil wrong when I write.

Changed several jobs, and in my hobbies, I am jumping from one project to another. How do you stay focused? How do you find 1 thing you are really good at and stick with it? Is there a book or a blog teaching this? Although, it seems quite trivial, for me this is a huge live hurdle. Any tips are highly appreciated!","time":1664868749,"title":"Ask HN: How to find what I am really good at?","type":"story"}],[32716770,{"by":"pyrodactyl","descendants":371,"id":32716770,"kids":[32717136,32717250,32718711,32718612,32718847,32717307,32717152,32719220,32717063,32718800,32719357,32716941,32718924,32720570,32719197,32718619,32719086,32717361,32722739,32718721,32719337,32719779,32718831,32721065,32720348,32718883,32717195,32720869,32725065,32718811,32722105,32717242,32717578,32721035,32726388,32723447,32719881,32717244,32726553,32717353,32719157,32725132,32718935,32725985,32720383,32718808,32722126,32717620,32721606,32719294,32720002,32716793,32720781,32719261,32737643,32717345,32719650,32718864,32719841,32717893,32722631,32722503,32720927,32717279,32720490,32720438,32726947,32719224,32719808,32716987,32720483,32722431,32719347,32721533,32720689,32717360,32718694,32723438,32719803,32718878,32717282,32717153,32719682,32721838,32722359,32734276,32718729,32721516,32834264,32719506,32719759,32720242,32722227,32723918,32722035,32717324,32720335,32718741,32720345,32721966,32721126,32716869,32718680,32720039,32721927,32733915],"score":255,"text":"$1a","time":1662319615,"title":"Ask HN: Location based pay is killing my motivation, how do others handle it?","type":"story"}],[32507789,{"by":"uVacCXNiiJCTnYB","descendants":248,"id":32507789,"kids":[32508787,32508216,32508037,32508023,32508835,32509043,32508263,32507985,32509056,32508273,32508527,32508884,32509616,32508169,32508057,32508207,32509632,32509188,32508074,32513066,32508965,32508552,32566273,32514080,32509425,32554974,32511120,32508161,32508776,32509052,32509022,32530581,32519491,32527715,32508002,32507939,32523639,32509472,32515193,32509240,32510860,32510490,32517689,32510156,32509253,32509966,32519810,32517041,32509603,32508777,32511067,32510220,32514955,32509496,32511092,32507975,32509899,32518250,32527855,32508228,32507917,32518453,32508087,32525845,32515897,32509699,32510125,32517458,32508131,32510510,32508041,32508765,32517476,32510553,32518443,32517941,32507969],"score":223,"text":"I would kill for a job that feels even remotely useful or interesting.

Everything is crypto "web 3" bubble, fintech, or recruiters being very vague about "unicorn" startups that are just making useless services that clearly won't go anywhere.

I've also found that interviews don't tell you much about reality. I've changed jobs a few times in recent years, every time I had interviews being told about interesting projects, great practices and so on, but once actually there was made to work on mind-numbing useless stuff.

It honestly makes me feel like my skills and time are being wasted. I'll be honest and say I consider myself to be pretty good at what I do (and it's been confirmed at my past jobs where I quickly get that reputation), but I just don't know where to find interesting opportunities that don't feel like either a grift or being a parasite making money out of arguably evil things.
