How long has it been since you last wrote a lot of code? Feels like these days it’s less about typing and more about managing AI.

How are you using AI at work right now?

Guess who has covid and has to take a break from building for a couple of days? 🥲

That weekend dilemma: build the side project or pretend laptops don’t exist.

Day 3 of building until I make $100. I’m adding the ability to connect to Spotify using their API. I have spent some time stuck on a loop with the AI trying to fix an issue in the connection. I guess AI is fun until you run into an issue 🥲

Day 2 of building until I make $100. I’m currently -$20, I bought a subscription to Cursor. I’m mind blown by how with proper documentation and prompts it’s able to build a prototype of the App 🤯 Has someone here built most of an App using AI?

Just started building my first App. Still early, but one takeaway from reading tons of posts: shipping is hard, but marketing is harder. Should TikTok be my main way of exposing my App? How early do you start marketing?

Day 1 of building until I make $100. Got an idea for my first App ☑️ I used Claude to refine the idea and generate technical documents that I will feed into Cursor. All ready for day 2.

I just set myself a challenge 🚀 I will build and publish an App without any mobile development experience. I will use AI tools during the journey. Thinking whether I should build in public.

I’ve been busy lately but hoping to be more active here. Took a much-needed break with a trip to China, and now I’m settling into my role in an exciting company as a mid-level software engineer. Loving the challenges so far.

It’s been a journey, but I’m thrilled to share that I’ve received a job offer! In fact, today I got two different offers. Excited to start next month and continue learning and growing. Change can be intimidating, but it’s also an opportunity for something great 🚀

I passed the live coding interview, final interview scheduled for Friday 🤞🏼 I also have a technical interview about the take-home project I did for another company tomorrow. It’s been a long process, but I finally feel so close to the finish line⌛️

I’m thinking about replacing my keyboard 🤔 What keyboard would you recommend me to improve my set up? I prefer low-profile ones. Any other accessories I could get? 👀

It’s been very busy lately. Having the last technical interview for two jobs next week, one is a live coding session and the other one is a take home assignment. A bit nervous about it but hopefully it will go well 🤞

I think the first interview went well. I’ll get some feedback by the end of the week. If successful then there’ll be a technical discussion followed by a live coding interview. I’m a bit nervous about that, any tips for live coding interviews? Never done one before 😅

As a backend engineer, I want to improve my PostgreSQL skills especially in topics like optimization and performance tuning. What are the best resources for that?

I got two interviews for next week, and potentially I might have a third one. This weekend, I’ll be studying and reviewing 🤓
