sonderotison Ask HN: What skills do you want to develop or improve in 2026?

sonderotison Ask HN: Those making $500/month on side projects in 2025 – Show and tell

Wow this is pretty cool. I am working on my first mobile app. what tips can you give. I am planning to build in public on twitter, substack and share my coding process here on HN.

It is a carpooling app.

sonderotison We need to talk about your GitHub addiction (2023)

What is happening to github is the same thing that is happened w/ twitter in the bluesky drama. people migrated to bluesky but later came back to twitter. Github is used for more than just code, it is some people's whole resume. And job hunting devs might not be so open to migrating to codeberg as corporation might not understand the reason for the switch.

As a student github still serves its purpose i.e to keep my code thats it.

big projects like nixpkgs or kernel should move away first maybe that might make a dent

sonderotison Ask HN: What Are You Working On? (December 2025)

A cool carpooling app for people in my country

sonderotison Codeberg is down

sonderotison The Overengineering Problem

I mean you do not need load balancers as much as you think. Yes you should build your architecture to be horizontally scalable but I have seen major apps successed and not need them.

This is why I flagged them as an overengineering trait

sonderotison Reasons to Not Use ChatGPT

Interesting take from richard.

sonderotison Why does software have to be part of the left wing or right wing?

can't pinpoint it. But I simply mentioned countries who have this sort of "left wing" vs "right wing" thing.

sonderotison Why does software have to be part of the left wing or right wing?

I am simply referencing. I am just asking why does OSS have to be based around this.

sonderotison Why does software have to be part of the left wing or right wing?

I am not saying that if someone has poor leadership skills they should stand all I am saying is it should not be because of their beliefs. I mean why are they referencing his blog posts and not github issues of poorly handled pull requests.

I mean why does the leader have to align with your faith. If this escaletes youll realize that people will discriminate patches of contribution because they came from some who is "muslim" or "christian".

sonderotison Why does software have to be part of the left wing or right wing?

this will definately ruin software. I mean people act like this software is only used in EU and america. FOSS should be a time to contribute not nitpick each other's beliefs I mean.

sonderotison Why does software have to be part of the left wing or right wing?

I mean currently I see it alot with people trying to make forks of OSS just because of there political stand. I mean the reason to leave software should be because it is bad quality not because of someone. I mean why are you not open to people having different beliefs on something.

So whats next? No software made by christians. I am not trying to justify devs actions but most of these movements act like sofware is used only in US and EU regions. I mean why are you forcing people to move from twitter because you do not like elon musk.

I see this also in the linux community and alot of OSS projects its being pushed.

sonderotison Ask HN: Which LLM service has the fairest pricing for students?

sonderotison Ask HN: Non AI users. What do you do when you are stuck and docs aren't clear

Woah so I bet you are an LLM power user

sonderotison Ask HN: Non AI users. What do you do when you are stuck and docs aren't clear

Lets say you have a bug and you are trying to resolve it. Lets say react-router which is poorely documented or better yet passportjs

sonderotison Ask HN: How do you build good software that users pay for?

This is somesort of a vague question but, I am in a third world country and I see posts on techcruch on how startups make lots of money is silicon valley. The funding literally competes with my countries national budget. I want to build such software that gets funded. I am sort of a solo dev with full stack skills. I want to start and buy into the software as a service deal so to say but I am lost and literally broke.
