Hi, i am a college freshman but as strange as it sounds, no one in my college is actually that interested in computer science.
I am trying to find some small communities where i can actually talk and see people who have the drive.
Any recommendations?
well i wish i was in a country where we had opportunities like this lol, we have a lot of cheap labour who can work for pennies
i see, i really appreciate your comment. I chose CS because there wasnt anything else that i could think of that i liked honestly, and i've been learning to code for a while and it doesn't really seem hard to me.

College is going to start in a few days. But seeing the job market, I'm a little scared.
What do you all recommend that i should focus on so i can be employable and actually have a job by the time college ends?
i really hate ai, it has made everything so much more difficult. But whenever i think about this, i feel like i'm complaining .
honestly, i believe this is more about basic human nature. Tell me, who are people going to take more seriously at first glance. Someone who shows up to a seminar with a bed head and a crappy physique, or a person who takes care of their body, makes sure he looks well.
But at the end, the product is what matters.
I mean, why do people stress a lot about reading more books?
This is actually good advice i'm not gonna lie
