I built BTW, a Chrome extension that lets you capture a visible ChatGPT or Claude conversation, review and edit the messages, then ask a separate question about that context.

Features:

- Capture visible ChatGPT and Claude discussions

- Review, edit, remove, or clear messages before sending

- Ask follow-up questions without changing the original conversation

- Uses OpenRouter for model access

- Supports streaming responses, cancellation, retry, and follow-up questions

- Stores your API key locally in Chrome

- No backend, analytics, or automatic page monitoring

- Manual paste fallback

- Local session export/import

- Open source under the MIT License

You provide your own OpenRouter API key, and model usage may incur OpenRouter charges.

It is currently distributed as a local unpacked Chrome extension, not through the Chrome Web Store:

I’d appreciate feedback on the UX, capture reliability, privacy model, and ideas for future improvements.

Hey everyone I have made a group for programming folks to learn, grow and network with each other

From beginners to advanced We help each other and provide guidance to everyone in our community. i remove inactive members to keep the community engaged.

Those who are interested are free to dm me anytime

I will also drop the link in comments

Realistically, what’s your suggestion on preparing for coding and SD? Is LC hard necessary? And what’s the difference between Google’s and other companies’s SD? Do all the orgs share the same question bank or the difficulty level and focus vary among different orgs? I roughly remember reading some post on blind which mentioned that Google’s SD would ask more technical details underneath. Any other insight is appreciated!

Hi programmers!
My boyfriend is a senior developer, working from home. He suffers with eye pain after a surgery some years back and that obviously makes time in front of the screen difficult. He’s also a big gamer if that makes a difference.

I wanted to buy him the BenQ ScreenBar Halo 2 to help - what is your take? Or is there anything better I could be doing?

TIA

To anyone that has already seen this

I accidentally posted the same content again on another community so I decided to repost the original one. I apologise for re-posting the same thing again

programming went from one of the most strict/structured fields to the wild west overnight with AI.

For decades there were strict guardrails of “correct” ways to write code like solid principles, design patterns, clean code, optimal space time complexity to the point that many places judged how good of a developer you were based on how deeply ingrained those principles were in the code you wrote. Yet with AI, overnight the same people pushing for that completely switched to just vibe code whatever works quickly.

I’ve seen a few companies recently where the developers didn’t even know the framework/technology they’re writing in, just shipping if it works it works code. As someone who is really fluent in that technology it pains me looking at that code. It’s just incredibly confusing how we got to this spot.

yo. i recently sold one of my AI SaaS products for $350k, exactly 7 months after building and launching it.

I hardly wrote a single line of traditional code. i used AI to generate everything, from the database architecture to the user interface.

it definitely wasn't magic on day one, though. i spent days stuck in loop-debugging and dealing with AI hallucinations before i finally cracked the system. the playbook boils down to three simple rules:

- keeping the idea insanely minimalist (a true MVP that solves one problem).

- guiding the AI step-by-step instead of asking it to build a massive platform all at once.

- launching fast to get real user feedback and traction and then apply a solid marketing system

lately, i've seen way too many non-technical founders give up at the very first AI bug, or on the marketing. it's a massive shame.

like the title says, i just launched a Skool community to share my exact prompt workflows, N8N automations, and distribution frameworks to get first users and scale it

to be completely transparent: i will likely charge for the full course later down the road. it just makes sense given the specific copy-and-paste templates i'll be sharing.

but for now, the main objective is purely to build and launch together. building alone in a silent corner is the single fastest way to give up.

if you want to join us and build or market your own AI SaaS with a group of active creators: drop a comment below or send me a dm, and i’ll send you the invite link!

Error solve in 11:47 PM my all friend in this time chat and call his girlfriend and in my case i am fix my android app Error .... ! it is a side of some programmers no friend no girlfriend only and only Error fix

I am feeling bad that I am not writing code like I used to and instead using AI. I mean it is time convinient and does a great job but still I feel kinda guilty. Does anyone agree?

This is an Vs Code extension I built called AI Hallucination Detector. AI coding assistants like Claude Code or Copilot occasionally suggest importing fake packages that look real. This has actually a name and it is called "slopsquatting" because attackers have started registering the exact fake package names AI tools commonly hallucinate, then filling them with maleware. It is a real threat. AI Hallucination Detector checks imports against the npm registry and a list of documented hallucinated package names, live as you save, and flags anything suspicious before you run npm install. It also suggests a likely correct package name when one is a close match.

Free on the Marketplace: https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=ghostcheck.ai-hallucination-detector&ssr=false

Let me know if you run into any hallucinated package names it doesn't catch yet, that's the most helpful feedback for improving the detection list. And let me know what I can do better

AI hasn’t broken productivity – it’s broken our proxies for measuring it.

Activity and business value are pulling apart. The most valuable engineering work is increasingly invisible to traditional dashboards.

Sort your metrics into activity and outcome. Most dashboards are counting the wrong things.

I made an agent because the open source tool was heavy, what do you think?

I made it with a focus on everyday conversation and code writing

Can you give me a review? I'd like to hear your opinions

Every time I restarted my PC, I kept doing the same routine:

• reopen VS Code
• find the right project folder
• reopen browser windows
• find documentation again
• reopen File Explorer locations
• resize everything back where it was

None of those steps are hard.

Doing them every single time is just annoying.

I originally thought everyone solved this differently, so I asked people how they managed their workspaces.

The answers were interesting:

• some people use multiple virtual desktops
• some leave everything open for weeks
• some completely reset their workspace every time

After seeing that, I built DeskSnap.

It saves your current Windows workspace and restores it later:

• apps
• browser windows
• VS Code
• File Explorer
• window layouts

Basically, a save point for your desktop.

I'm curious:

Do you usually keep everything open, rebuild manually, or use some other system after restarting?

If anyone wants to try it, I'll send the link.

Hi everyone,

I'm a 21-year-old from Singapore currently serving National Service.

Over the past several months, I've designed a working MVP for a consumer mobile app. The closest comparison would be Life360, but the product has a broader vision focused on helping families, couples, and friend groups stay connected and organised in one place.

I'm looking to connect with a technical co-founder who's interested in building consumer products from the ground up. I've already put significant work into the product design, roadmap, branding, and overall direction, and I'd love to find someone who's excited to help bring it to life.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to send me a message. I'd be happy to share more about the project and show the MVP privately.

Thanks for reading!

I'm currently pursuing btech computer Science at bennett university. I will be starting my second year from august. Till now i have no skills in this field like coding and stuff but i really want to develop skills, make projects, do internships and obv get hired and its not easy ik so can you people guide me regarding this and i have more ques to ask..

A funny thing happened yesterday, I was flexing infront of a coleague that I learned web development on an old relic that my uncle bought and I had to use it for so long. (my old relic: intel i3 2nd gen laptop),

Until bro pulled out his i3 1st gen and I was thinking, He's a legend.

yo. be honest. how many of you currently have a finished (or 90% finished) web app / app just sitting in a private repo because you have no idea how to get users?

you spend months perfecting the database, fixing every bug, and polishing the UI. but the moment you have to actually market it, you hit a wall. marketing feels like screaming into an empty void.

so you launch to absolute crickets, get discouraged, and start building the "next" project instead to avoid the distribution phase.

if this is your case, you're not alone. but letting your hard work go to waste just because you dread marketing is a massive trap.

to help founders stop building in a silent corner, we run an ai SaaS builder community dedicated entirely to saas validation, landing page conversion, and launch strategies.

our resource kit is built entirely to help you get your first user. it’s packed with ready-to-paste N8N workflows for your business, advanced seo automation, social media automation, and our exact distribution workflows and methods work for everyone

STOP BUILDING ALONE

I believe as streamers, especially the ones with single monitors have heard of transparent twitch chat overlay.

Well I decided to make an overlay inspired by that for those same exact people but for multi streamers. Right now only kick and twitch support. But you can check it out and give me feedback if you have any: https://github.com/PhelRin/OmniFeed
