Is a high score on Jack Westin harder to get than on UWorld?

Held off on UWorld until now, I had a pretty long timeline and was worried about blowing through all the material with weeks left to spare before my MCAT, but I finally got uworld and now I feel a little more lost. Before this, I’ve been using the JW question bank for just general practice, but I feel like uworld is easier?? Is it just me or am I going insane?? And if it’s really easier, what do I trust? Is the MCAT like this too? And no I’m not doing FLs yet because I’m too scared lol but can I trust my content ability overall based on my scores from uworld?

TLDR: uworld seems easier than I expected, especially passages, can I trust this?

Anthropic needs to let Claude breathe

Anthropic really said:

“We’re building the safest AI in the world.”

And then Claude spends 60% of the conversation telling me why it can’t do something, 30% apologizing for existing, and 10% actually answering my question.

I get paid to taste pet food

​

Yeah, I taste dog food for money.

I know how that sounds 😭

My job is basically testing pet food and giving feedback on things like the taste, smell and texture.

The funniest part is telling people what I do for work and watching them process it.

“So you’re a food tester?”

“Yes.”

“What kind of food?”

“…dog food.”

🫠

Honestly, a paycheck is a paycheck.

I feel like if dogs can eat human food, we can spare a little time to just taste theirs and make sure its okay 🤷🏾‍♀️

If an investment banker is on TikTok, that’s not an investment banker, that’s a Northwestern Mutual sales rep pretending to be one

omeone paid me $1,200 for my boogers

Istg I wish I was joking.

A few months ago I was scrolling through Reddit looking for weird ways to make money when I came across a post from someone looking for people to provide biological samples for research.

I almost ignored it because the wording was weird as hell, but then I saw they were specifically looking for nasal mucus samples.

Basically, boogers.

I messaged them expecting either a scam or some incredibly weird fetish situation. They explained that they were collecting samples for a research project and gave me instructions for collecting and packaging them.

The first payment was $100.

I remember staring at the message for a good five minutes because I could not believe someone was actually going to send me money for something my body produces for free.

They paid me.

So obviously, I kept doing it.

Over the next few weeks, the payments increased depending on the amount they needed, and eventually I made about $1,200 altogether.

The embarrassing part was when I started having trouble producing enough.

My nose would be completely dry and I'd be sitting there thinking:

“I need my nose to start working because I have bills.”

I started taking unnecessarily long hot showers and using normal saline to keep my nose comfortable because apparently I had become a small-scale mucus supplier.

At some point I realized I was actively planning my day around having enough boogers.

That was probably my lowest moment.

The funniest thing is that I have done plenty of normal online side hustles, but somehow selling boogers is the one that made me the most money.

I made $1,200 from something I had literally been throwing away my entire life.

I don't know what that says about the economy, but I'm pretty sure it isn't good.

AI-assisted job search... It works!!!

I’ve basically turned ChatGPT into my personal job-search assistant and it’s actually helping 😭

Job searching has been exhausting, so instead of constantly searching through LinkedIn and random job boards myself, I started using ChatGPT differently.

I gave it my actual experience, the types of roles I’m targeting, the kinds of companies I want to work for, and more importantly the jobs I don’t want.

Now I get job alerts based on my criteria.

For example, I’m mainly looking at remote roles in:

• Customer Support

• Customer Success

• Customer Onboarding

• Client/Customer Operations

• QA / Support QA

• CRM-related roles

• Associate and early-career positions

And I’ve specifically told it to stop showing me things that aren't a good fit.

The useful part isn't just getting a list of jobs, though.

When an alert comes through, I can ask it things like:

“Is this actually a realistic role for me?”

“How well does my experience match this?”

“What are the biggest gaps?”

“Would you apply to this or skip it?”

“Is this company actually hiring globally?”

So instead of me applying to 50 random jobs because the title sounds good, I'm trying to be more strategic about which ones are actually worth my time.

I am not using it blindly though 🫠

The job market is already exhausting. I don't need to make it worse by spending three hours applying to a role I had a 2% chance of getting in the first place. 😂

It’s definitely not a magic “get me a job” button, but having something help me narrow down opportunities, evaluate them, and keep me from doom-scrolling job listings all day has been surprisingly useful.

Has anyone else built their own AI-assisted job search system?

Customer Support & Onboarding Specialist for SaaS

Hi everyone ☺️

I’m a Customer Support Specialist looking to work with a small SaaS company that could use some extra help with customer support or onboarding.

I’ve worked in customer-facing roles where clear communication, patience, problem-solving, and knowing how to handle people properly are a big part of the job. I’m comfortable dealing with frustrated customers, explaining things without making people feel stupid for asking, following up when something needs more attention, and knowing when an issue needs to be escalated.

I also offer customer onboarding support. That can include helping new customers get set up, walking them through the product, answering questions as they learn the platform, following up with them, and making sure they’re actually comfortable using what they’ve paid for.

I can help with:

💢Customer support through email, chat, or tickets

💢Customer onboarding and product guidance

💢Troubleshooting and issue resolution

💢Customer follow-ups

💢CRM and ticket documentation

💢Escalating technical issues to the appropriate team

💢Working with SOPs and knowledge bases

💢Collecting and communicating customer feedback

💢Identifying recurring customer issues

I’m particularly interested in working with SaaS startups and smaller teams where having someone reliable handling the customer side can make a real difference.

I’m looking for a part-time arrangement around $200–$250 per week, depending on the hours and scope of the work.

If you’re a founder who needs help with customer support or onboarding, feel free to comment or send me a message.

Tell me a little about your product and what you need help with, and we can see if I’d be a good fit.

Cold email has no cheat code.

A lead can:

Open your email.

Read every word.

Think it's well written.

Be your ideal customer. ...and still say no.

Maybe they don't have the budget. Maybe the timing is off. Maybe they just hired someone. Maybe their priorities changed. Maybe they're simply not interested.

That's why I don't believe there's a "secret code" to cold outreach. Personalization matters. Relevance matters. Your offer matters.

But none of those guarantee a yes. Cold email is a game of probabilities, not certainty.

The best SDRs I know don't chase perfection—they chase consistently good response rates. If your process reliably gets positive replies, you keep refining it and keep sending.

You can't control the buyer's decision. You can only control the quality of your outreach and the volume you put into the market.

Curious: What's one cold email myth you wish more founders understood?
