Cs major can’t code?

Is the market that saturated or csMajors can’t code?

Saw a lot of posts with people sending out hundreds of applications without reply, is it really that bad? or are their resumes just absolute dogshit?

I have a cousin who's in his third year of CS with no internship and always complains at family gatherings about how bad the market is. I then asked him to show me his resume… let’s just say bro has a calculator as his project.

Since he was the only cs major I knew, I asked him to do a project using a very unknown API for some game that we both play and he agreed. Since the API just gives the bare minimum something like only gives the matches of players, so I told him to just write a script to get the players' win rates by extracting the data from the JSON. This should have taken like 20 minutes, map over the whole json then just count how many wins out of the amount of games played by a certain user. As I told him he was fucking typing in word for word what I was saying then copy and pasted like 1000 lines of json into chatgpt 💀 since gpt won’t take that much tokens bro spends 30 minutes split up the json into chunks just giving it to gpt like wtf lmao?

The solution was like 12 lines of code 😭

        const participant = matches.info.participants.find(
            participant => participant.puuid === puuid
        );

        return participant ? participant.win === true : false;

    })

    const wins = userWinResults.filter(result => result === true).length;
    const totalGames = userWinResults.length;
    const winRate = wins / totalGames * 100;

    res.json({
        message: `${gameName}#${tagLine} has a ${winRate}% win rate`,
    });
