Andrew

Hello everyone! I am Andrew.
Originally from Ohio, I now reside in California for the time being, after 3 years in North Carolina, and 2 years in Japan before that! I currently work as an avionics electronics technician in the military, but will be changing my job to intelligence here soon.

I have always been incredibly fascinated by tech and computers, but as I am in my mid-twenties, I have more of a drive than ever to attempt to learn about how these things we call computers work and how I can add to the advancement of this technology. I am FAR from being a novice in this pursuit, and still consider myself a baby-beginner, as I've never fully escaped tutorial h*ll and have never taken on any projects of my own.

Any advice helps and I hope you follow me along my journey!

Warm regards,
Andrew

Hey Thaisa!

I've always been drawn to backend development. I consistently catch myself asking "What goes on after I press this button?" It's funny how much we think we know about the internet, but there is just so much out there. I am learning about HTTP and servers currently and as simple as this stuff might seem on the surface (HTTP, DNS, IP, client/server relationships) it is not! At least to me lol.

Stay in touch!

Hey everyone! 👋

I'm Svetlina—a former developer turned program manager who still sneaks off to build things when no one's looking. I recently dove into the Google AI Studio Multimodal Challenge and couldn’t resist exploring how Gemini’s capabilities could be shaped into tools that help us think, move, and care a little smarter.

Here are the three applets I submitted (yes, I got carried away 😅):

🔹 The Algorithmic Conscience
A real-time ethical auditor that flags biases, logical fallacies, and groupthink—like a conscience with a PhD in philosophy and a knack for interrupting boardroom nonsense.

dev.to/svet_62385e9/the-algorithmi...

🔹 Real-Time Fitness Form Analysis
An AI-powered posture coach that analyzes movement and offers corrective feedback. Because your spine deserves better than whatever that last squat was.

dev.to/svet_62385e9/real-time-fitn...

🔹 Gemini’s Paw-sitive Insight
An empathetic assistant for pet wellness that detects signs of discomfort or illness from photos and videos. Basically, a vet with infinite patience and zero judgment.

Each one uses Gemini’s multimodal magic in a different way—and I’d love to hear what you think! Feedback, questions, or pet pics welcome 🐾

SecureGen is one of those “scratch my own itch” projects — I built it because I was tired of clunky password generators, and I figured others might feel the same.

Hey everyone,

My name is Arihant, I go by Ari its just easier on everyone, I am currently 3 classes away from graduating with my masters in Computer Science. However, I did my bachelors in Microbiology and worked for 1 year in a hospital laboratory before transitioning to computer science. I have been learning how to code since the end of 2023 and would consider myself to be pretty competent now for someone with no previous background in the field.

I joined this website because my masters program is online so its a bit difficult to make friends/groups outside of our zoom classes especially since I am a minority in the Masters program considering my background and the fact that I am in my mid 20s, not married, and not working full time while doing school.

So I was hoping if anyone else can relate to my situation where they either cannot find other people or maybe its just something that interests you. But I would like a few like minded people to form a group with me so that we could all meet up and work on an opensource project we make together preferably in C#.

People I am looking for:

  • Being able to speak and write in English fluently is mandatory
  • Know the foundations of coding, no need to be a master or anything
  • Know the basics of either Java or C#
  • Know how to implement Microservices
  • Be willing to participate and learn as needed

Hello Dev.to family! 👋 I’m Rx, your future friendly neighborhood pharmacist. I’ve joined this community to explore how pharmacy knowledge and software can come together. The idea of using coding and AI for things like molecule optimization already gets me super excited.

I’ve started Python more times than I can count, but now it’s finally time to learn it properly. So, I’ll be counting on your support. And to my fellow pharmacist-coders out there — I’d love to tap into all the knowledge you’ve built up.

Wishing everyone happy coding!
