Dementor430··on Ask HN: Unemployed almost a year after graduating MIT – a rant
try networking with people online. go as far as writing vcs and asking them for business ideas. every shot you dont take is wasted.

To be clear: Times are fucking hard, this isn't an easy feat and I wish you best of success

Dementor430··on Sick of smart TVs? Here are your best options
It's a nice starting point. There are other options such as used Flanders Scientific or Sony Studio Screens. But those are usually rather expensive. I would recommend to buy them on Ebay if anything.

nice alt
Dementor430··on x402 — An open protocol for internet-native payments
I am excited to see how people will use this. Are there any sites actively allowing to use it rn?
Dementor430··on How I, a non-developer, read the tutorial you, a developer, wrote for me
OPs argument is flawed. Documentation is not there to teach you from scratch. Its there to describe a projects intended behaviour under normal conditions. Often times people will cry about lacking context and expect you to basically use it for them. I would heavily recommend against that as you will end up as unpayed and burned out tech support...
Dementor430··on Show HN: Daffodil – Open-Source Ecommerce Framework to connect to any platform
This repo behaves odd. Was it taken over? Anyone else suspicious?

looks like a cool project

Hi, I made a thing. Got tired half way so a bit of vibe coding bs is included. It works, Outlook bitches a bit, Thunderbird, IOS and Android Mail apps dont. I'll OpenSource when I am sure its not complete trash. Play with it if you like, just dont DDOS it.
Dementor430··on Ask HN: What's a surprisingly useful tech skill that's underrated today?
Well, the incompetent will find a way to make it work. Since management usually only cares about that, it will be fine. The competent who dont give a damn will basically result to vibe coding and receive similar results. Just with lower cost.
Dementor430··on Ask HN: What made your favorite manager so great?
Well, can't blame you for that. I've been thinking similar thoughts. Mainly looking at the economic recession we face though.
Dementor430··on Ask HN: What made your favorite manager so great?
Didn't really have good managers so far. Reading this makes me question my choices. Maybe it's time to move on. On the other hand, this is a cluster of greatness and for every 15 good comments there's a thousand bad stories.

So let me ask this instead: How would you go about finding a job with a good manager? And whats the reason behind it?

Dementor430··on Ask HN: Is anyone experiencing "AI brain rot?"
It makes concepts accessible without a proper foundation. It can be dangerous if done with critical components. But StackOverflow did exist before too.. So it's not entirely new to our industry. It certainly makes it easier to be stupid.
Dementor430··on Ask HN: How are you dealing with AI-assisted interview cheaters?
Well, if a AI cracked your interview: Don't do interviews. You honestly don't posses the required skills.
Dementor430··on Show HN: Mistral NeMO Agent to get the best builds in League of Legends
blitz.gg might not be a good datasource. Mobalytics is better suited.
Dementor430··on Why does working feel like batteling trash mobs?
Probably a good call
Dementor430··on Ask HN: How do I deal with a cease and desist notice for my open HW project?
Sounds like cheap puppet play... Don't be intimidated by them.
Dementor430··on Best social network/forum for a beginner self-taught developer?
Well, as strange as it sounds: GitHub, Element. IRC and 4chan. Yes, there is a lot of harassment and trolling in those spaces. However, they are inhabited by quite skilled devs. Think of it as a powerfull witch living in a swamp... Refrain from Discords, they are usually doubble the drama with half the iq points... Same goes for Reddit...
