#313Trying to figure out how to get a job in this market for someone with sub 3 YoE in the industry :/ It's hard out there for juniors, y'all. I'm working at a company that I thought I could stay for years in, but my CTO left and now I'm shafted with basically all of their responsibilities - I'm not overly perturbed by this, as it's well within my ability, but I would much rather spend the next few years as an IC and rea…
I'm with you on this. I will hit 3 YoE in June and have been doing excellent in my current role yet having no luck finding a new job. Interviews are hard to come by and I'm a month out on even getting a rejection reply from some companies.

#315I have been working on using openclaw and Claude managed agents to help me run a one-person startup. As a repeat founder, I know a lot of tasks that are very well suited for agentic systems.
so far it has been an interesting journey and I have had some success but the whole process has led me to write a lot of software around my own process so that I can scale it.
Might turn that into a product itself.

#317https://neverbreak.ai that fixes failing CI and opens a PR with _proof_. Most "AI CI fix" tools read the error log and guess a patch. We actually reproduce the failure, fix it then re-run the test in a fresh environment to confirm it passes before opening the PR. Each PR includes a short GIF of the fix working. If the test doesn't actually pass, no PR gets opened. Works with C, Python, Go, Node.js, Java on GitHub Actions and GitLab CI. Currently working with few beta users.

Before anyone asks, I am a filmmaker and have made films for fifteen years. I'm building tools to help steer AI image and video generation.
Here are a bunch of shorts made with the tool:

We have a lot of users, and it's picking up steam.
We're building BYOK/C and we're also building an OpenOpenRouter / OpenFal. After that's done, we're going to build an OpenRunPod.
Anyone into films, AI, or infra that likes working in Rust should reach out!

#319A small Python library/framework for customising how the AST is walked and evaluated. I plan to use it in another project to configure a safe-ish sandboxed way of evaluating user submitted expressions and code. There are a few other libraries that enable this, but I found they bake in some stuff to the internals that I didn't want.

#320I'm working on a new 1v1 scrabble/wordle style game - iOS and Android versions are cooking as well, thanks to Expo.dev. A friend described it as "scrabble that doesn't drag", and I've had a few friends and family members playing hundreds of games (and especially the daily game) over the last few weeks, which has been really encouraging.
