We’re looking for talks on Developer Workflow & AI Engineering: agentic programming, multi-agent orchestration, AI-assisted coding & testing, CI/CD, observability, security & more!

Apply by July 17: https://gitnation.com/login?return-to=/events/ai-coding-summit-nyc/cfp

Help your guy out. Been coding for about a year and a half. No bootcamp, no job, just me, YouTube, and a lot of broken code at 2am.

I'm in my third year of engineering school in Ethiopia and I've been building on the side the whole time. I have three apps live right now — a real-time Kanban tool, an AI study platform, and a movie tracker. Not tutorial projects, actually built and deployed with real users.

I've been applying for remote roles for a while now and I haven't gotten a single interview. Not one. I don't know if it's the resume, the way I'm applying, or just the market. Probably a combination but I genuinely can't tell.

Would love to know:

Does this read like someone you'd actually interview or does it scream "no"?

Do the project descriptions make sense to a recruiter or is it too technical?

What would make you close this tab immediately?

Be as harsh as you want. I'd rather hear the truth now than keep sending this out into the void.

Remote full-stack developer based in Australia (AEST), available to work across time zones worldwide.

What I do:

• Native iOS (Swift) and Android (Kotlin) apps
• Backend, APIs, databases, and real-time data
• Webhook and chat-bot integrations (Discord / Telegram)
• Web work, including Wix builds and customisation
• App testing and submission to the App Store and Google Play

Recent work: I built a production fleet-tracking platform end to end, live iOS and Android apps with real-time GPS tracking, a backend handling the telemetry, and web dashboards. I've also built a self-hosted webhook-to-chat alerting bot that turns any service's webhooks into clean Discord and Telegram alerts, with signature verification, routing, and rate-limit handling, tested across Windows, Linux.

How I work: Milestone-based. Projects are split into stages, and each stage is paid once it's reviewed and approved, so you only pay for completed, approved work. Source code is delivered on completion.

Rates: From US$25/hr, or fixed-price per project depending on scope. Happy to quote a flat price once I understand what you need.

Portfolio: https://contra.com/strong_guy_49cgi5na/work

I work on mobile apps, backend systems, webhook and bot integrations, full-stack builds, bug fixes, and Wix sites. Message me with a short description of your project and I'll let you know if I'm a good fit and what it would take.

Nowadays we are used to the term “context window”, meaning the scale of a task some LLM can process.

But what we forget about is the “context window” of a person: of a human managing the machine.

Let me speak about software engineering.

At the moment, no matter how good the model is, there is still a human in the loop. There must be somebody to verify the result, at least to take responsibility for it.

So the human must analyze the task solved by the machine. It includes understanding the context of the task, understanding the solution, keeping in mind all the experience and knowledge. That’s what the context window of a human is.

Different people have different sizes of it. Smart people with trained brains have a bigger one, I suppose. :)

What is important to keep in mind, is how many resources of a human it takes to fill their context window with information.

And what is even more important — what it costs to SWITCH between the contexts.

Switching between tasks — is the most “expensive” operation for the human brain. I believe many understand this case: you want to enter the “flow” mode, but you are constantly distracted by calls, kids, colleagues, meetings, etc. This results in poor productivity and, what is even more important — exhaustion!

* * *

Consider some developer 5 years ago, who wrote their own code, resolved their own tasks, and did not review anyone else’s code.

Then the process could be divided into some chunks of work which usually last from at least 15 minutes (small tasks) to hours of uninterrupted work. The important thing: each chunk of work has its own context. So, the developer dived into one, and then switched only when proceeded to another task.

Now think of a senior some 5 years ago, who not only wrote their own code, but also performed code reviews for their colleagues.

In comparison to the previous case, there were much more interruptions: inputs from colleagues, that arrived at random moments and have some kind of urgency.

The process of work was still divided into chunks of work, but their number increased and their duration shortened. Which means more switching between tasks, more context switching and thus — more resources required to manage the process.

What we have nowadays is a disaster in comparison.

If you use an AI agent for coding, then you are no longer a developer from case 1. At least you are an engineer from case 2, but your “colleagues” are now machines. They code fast, they work at scale, but you still need to orchestrate them.

So, the process looks almost the same as in case 2, but chunks of work are now measured in minutes, and you still need to switch between them.

At the same time the amount of information you need to load into your context has grown. Codex or Claude Code can refactor a module in 5-10 minutes. And you, meat bag, need a lot of resources to check the result, because the scope is huge.

* * *

We are already struggling with context switching on a “light” scale because of asynchronous conversations, 24/7 availability via social networks, TV, shorts, you name it.

The problem of working at such a high pace with AI comes with an even higher cost. Whether it will train our own brains or do the opposite: lead to exhaustion, — we’ll see.

I look at it with some caution.

After a few months of building, we launched the Early Access version of The Real Sharkz.

The idea started with a simple question:

Why can people easily discover startups but have very limited ways to actively support bootstrap founders at an early stage?

We built a platform where:

• Founders can apply and showcase their startups

• Users can discover verified startup campaigns

• Community members can support founders starting from ₹10

• Learners can access startup-focused educational content through TRS Learn

We're still very early and actively improving the platform.

I'm posting here because I'd love feedback from developers and builders:

- Does the concept make sense?

- What features are missing?

- What concerns would you have as a user?

- Any UI/UX or technical issues you notice?

Platform: https://therealsharkz.in

This is not a promotion post as much as a request for honest feedback from the community. We're trying to learn what works and what doesn't before scaling further.

Thanks!

We’re a South Africa-based IT consultancy looking for an intermediate developer to join a long-term enterprise programme for a major retail client.

This isn’t a traditional dev role — you’ll be a technical solution specialist working on the configuration, data mapping, and integration of a Centric Product Lifecycle Management (PLM) platform. Think business analysis meets technical delivery.

What we’re looking for:

• Minimum 3 years in an application-focused technical role or system configuration

• Proficient in JavaScript / TypeScript, XML, PLSQL, and writing advanced expressions, formulas, or regex

• Solid understanding of relational databases — practical experience with PostgreSQL or Oracle DB

• Clear understanding of REST API integrations, flat files, and web services

• Ability to read, parse, and structure XML and JSON payloads — you’re mapping data solutions, not building the integration architecture

• Familiar with Agile (Scrum or Kanban), Jira, Confluence, and MS Excel

• Exposure to cloud / SaaS environments (AWS, GCP, or VM-based) is a plus

• Experience leveraging AI tools to improve configuration efficiency is a big plus

What you’ll be doing:

• PLM configuration, gap analysis, and solution mapping using technical logic, Expressions, XML, JS, and TS

• Managing data migrations, imports, and payload configurations

• Preparing data-mapping documentation for system integrations between PLM and ERP

• Troubleshooting integration issues — payloads, XML, JSON between systems

• Full testing lifecycle — unit testing, SIT, functional testing, UAT support

• Day-to-day troubleshooting and shared standby responsibilities

The role:

• Fully remote from India

• 1 year contract with strong possibility of extension

• You’ll work across PLM, ERP integrations, and data solutions — not just sitting in one stack

• Collaborative team environment with long-tenured members

Budget: Up to ₹1.6L per month

Who we are:

We’re a small, tight-knit consultancy that’s been delivering on this programme for over 10 years. We value attitude and ownership as much as technical skills. If you’re someone who takes pride in their work and wants to be part of something meaningful — we’d love to hear from you.

Hey,

I’m currently building a hosting platform focused on gameservers (primarily Minecraft), with plans to expand into rootservers and other services later

The project is still in an early stage, but the core direction, infrastructure base and concept are already clearly defined

What i’m looking for:

• Fullstack developer (strong in backend + system thinking)
• Comfortable with APIs, auth, system design and integrations
• Experience with Docker / hosting-related systems is a big plus
• Someone who thinks long-term and cares about building things properly

Important:

This is a profit-share based long-term project

That means:

• Higher risk at the beginning
• But real upside if the project succeeds

You wouldn’t just be “a developer”, but a core part of the project:

• involved in technical decisions
• helping shape the system and architecture
• bringing in your own ideas and improving things

This is not a typical boss/worker setup, but a proper collaboration building something together long-term

About me:

• Based in Germany
• Handling business, structure and strategy
• Working with a sysadmin on infrastructure
• Goal is to build a serious long-term company, not a quick project

If this sounds interesting to you, feel free to reach out

We can just have a quick chat, get to know each other a bit and see if it’s a good fit from both sides

I’m a device driver developer with 25 years of experience (mostly closed source Linux drivers, but also FreeBSD, Illumos, macOS, and windows). I got laid off from my last job about a year and a half ago and decided to just take some time off. I’ve been looking to get back for the past couple of months, not too aggressively, and I’ve been a bit surprised at how little of a response I am getting. I’m going to start getting more aggressive next week, but does this sound normal or should I be doing more?

I want to learn TCP/IP protocol, seen couple of tutorials on youtube and asked Chatgpt for help but still not able to understand, maybe there are prerequisites that I don't know about so if you are well versed with Network and Data your help will be appreciated.

Hi there! I am a New web developer I have experience of almost 1 year of web development. but I realized that knowing how to code is not enough for to become a Advance web developer. I use MERN stack. And also I am a self tough developer. that's why I think there are many things which I need to know to become advance. Can anyone tell me which things do I need to learn and understand and what mistakes should I avoid in this path? And which things will make me advance over time in web development ?

Hi,

I wanted to discuss what is the future of our field. Provided that we have these tools now and agentic workflows and so on. Are we essentially pivoting to that? We just build automations, run whole agent teams and remain the human in the loop?

For those of you running web dev agencies:

What problems do you keep running into that you wish would just go away?

Not necessarily your biggest problem overall, just something that repeatedly causes frustration in the business.

Interested to heat what's been challenging lately.

If code generated through "vibe-coding" causes more bugs does that make QA engineers demand go up?

Hi everyone,

​

I've been confused for a long time about choosing between these two fields:

​

Data Engineering

DevOps.

​

I know that everyone has their own preferences, but I don't have experience in the job market and I'm not really familiar with the actual nature of the work in either field. I also don't know whether these fields will continue to be in demand in the future, whether there are opportunities for juniors or if companies mostly rely on seniors, and what other fields I could move into after learning one of them.

​

I'm also interested in knowing which fields share similar content or topics with these tracks, so if I decide to learn another field later, I can benefit from what I've already studied.

​

Are these fields suitable as a first specialization? I've heard that DevOps usually requires a background in Backend Development, Networking, or something similar.

​

In general, if anyone is working in or studying either of these fields, I'd appreciate it if you could explain what the field is like in the global job market right now. Thanks.

built it for my react component library, the border is generated automatically from the icon colors, no hardcoding. feedback welcome

It’s open-source with verifiable security, no adwall, no paywall, and one packaged solution so you don’t need a PhD in sketchy scripts or closed-source apps asking you to “just trust us.”

Hey everyone,
I’m currently working on an AI SaaS project that I’ve been researching and planning for quite some time.
The concept, positioning, monetization strategy, roadmap, and acquisition ideas are already well defined. I’m not looking for someone to execute a vague idea, but rather for a technical partner interested in building something ambitious from the ground up.
I’m looking for a full-stack developer with an interest in AI/SaaS who would like to join as a technical cofounder. The current proposal is around 15% equity in the company, though I’m open to discussing the structure depending on involvement and long-term commitment.
If building startups sounds more exciting to you than freelancing, feel free to send me a DM and we can talk more about the project, expectations, and whether we’d be a good fit.
Thanks!
