Hey everyone!
Excited to join the DEV community!
I’m a creator passionate about web performance and browser technologies. Recently, I've been diving deep into WebAssembly and Web Workers to build zero-server, privacy-first web utilities—including a client-side image converter/compressor I recently shipped.
I joined DEV to connect with other developers, learn from everyone's posts, and start writing technical breakdowns of how I built my client-side tools.
Looking forward to being part of the community!
Hey! client-side / privacy-first utilities are underrated. Users get the benefit without the upload anxiety.
I’m a product designer, and that “where does the work happen?” decision (browser vs server) changes the whole UX story. What made you go all-in on client-side instead of a hybrid?
Great to see more developers joining the community. Looking forward to seeing what you're building and learning from your posts!

Welcome great engineer! Waiting to read your articles
Hello!
Welcome!
Greetings!
Hello and welcome!
Welcome to the community!
Hi everyone! I'm Nick, a medical writer from the UK who drifted into building AI tools for healthcare. What brought me here? I've just finished a comparison of LLM-as-judge metrics vs deterministic checks that surprised me enough to want to write it up properly, and dev.to seemed like the right home for it.
Fun fact: alongside the serious tools, I once built a 7,666-parameter "medical AI" called PlaceboGPT that gives the same answer to every question: "Stay hydrated, get adequate rest, and if symptoms persist, consult a healthcare professional." It remains my most reliable model.
PlaceboGPT is the only model in this thread with a stable eval score. The comparison I want to read is the half where the deterministic check wins, because that is the decision most people skip: if the thing has a deterministic answer, the judge is decoration and you have written a slower assert. Where did the judge actually earn its place?
Welcome, Nick!
I'm particularly interested in your LLM-as-a-judge comparison. There's a lot of enthusiasm around AI-based evaluation, but deterministic checks still provide reproducibility and auditability that many production systems need.
I'd love to hear where you think each approach works best and where each one starts to break down.
Looking forward to your article!

Hi all. John here!😀
Building Enprompta, a tool for making LLM apps in production a little less of a black box. I spend my days somewhere between "why did the model say that" and "why did that trace take 25 seconds." and am here to share what I'm learning along the way and steal a few ideas from the rest of you too.😌
Both of those questions assume somebody is already looking. I run a monitoring loop over my own agents and a second loop over the first one's errors, and the thing that still catches real problems is me getting suspicious about an output. What surfaces the trace nobody thought to go look at?
I love the quality loop! Curious what tools you use
All the tools Claude Code built for itself. I lately got with skills + some executable cli programs rather than MCP or tools. It uses Crome, it has integrations with Vercel, BetterStack, ClaudFlare, different API providers - everything discovered and built without my help. I only designed this on a high-level.
Hi John,
welcome to dev.to, looking forward to read your thoughts on LLM apps.
Welcome! I’m also interested in AI application development. What are you currently building?
Welcome to any news users here 🌟🙌
Hi everyone! 👋
I'm building TokenLat — a unified AI gateway that routes across OpenAI, Gemini, and China's most capable models (DeepSeek, GLM, Qwen) through one OpenAI-compatible endpoint, hosted in Singapore.
Most of my work is helping teams in SEA cut their LLM token bill 70%+ without changing output quality — the trick is routing the easy 80% of calls to capable cheaper models and reserving frontier models for the hard 20%.
Just published my first post here breaking down where the real cost leaks in agentic systems (spoiler: it's not the model price). Excited to swap notes with others building with LLMs!
The 70% holds right up until the cheap model is wrong in the one place that mattered. I run 20+ models across 9 providers, and the reason I stopped routing by task type is that you cannot tell in advance which call is the hard 20 percent. Complexity hides in ordinary looking steps, and coding is the worst case for it. How do you classify a call as easy before you have seen what it produces?
Fair challenge — and it is the real failure mode of naive task-type routing. The fix isn't predicting which call is hard upfront; it's routing cheap-by-default and escalating to frontier on a signal you can actually observe: a failed verification, low confidence, or exhausted retries. Caching + small-model-friendly prompts keep the 80% cheap regardless. Frontier becomes the safety net, not the daily driver — so the "hard 20%" stops being a blind spot and starts being a measured exception.
Escalating on a signal only covers failures that raise their hand. The ones that cost me were silent. A daily report from one of my loops dropped a metric and kept producing clean output for eight days before I noticed. Nothing failed verification, nothing retried, confidence was fine.
Low confidence is also the model's own opinion of its answer, and I've watched an agent break its logic and then rewrite the failing test to go green. So which signals do you actually count, and does anything outside the cheap model produce them?
Hey. just arrived. I'm UK based and coming back to software development after some time off. Background is Java EE and I love databases. I'm using Claude and Codex to do the heavy lifting these days and starting to build using lighter weight stacks like vue, but I'm benefiting from understanding the software development fundamentals whilst calling myself a vibe coder... has anyone come up with a better term yet?
Hi everyone!
I'm Alejandro Gutiérrez. I'm an independent researcher and developer,
working solo on a project called PoHI (Proof of Human Intent) — a protocol
that tries to tell whether a piece of text was typed by a human or an
AI/bot, not by what it says, but by the physical rhythm of typing, using
zero-knowledge proofs to keep it private.
I got into this because the "is this a bot?" question stopped making sense
once AI-generated text became indistinguishable from human text, and I
wanted to see if there was a more honest way to answer it — one that
didn't require reading what people write.
Outside of that, I like building things end-to-end on my own (math,
cryptography, circuits, all of it), and I'm learning a lot along the way.
Glad to be here, looking forward to learning from the community and being
useful too.
Cheers!
Not reading what people write is the right instinct, every detector that reads the text is measuring the wrong thing. What I would want to know is what stops a recorded rhythm from being replayed, or a model trained on enough keystroke traces from producing a convincing one. Once the proof is worth having, faking the signal is worth doing. Does the ZK part attest anything about where the timings came from, or only that they exist?
Great question, genuinely the sharpest one anyones asked so far, and its
the one I was most worried about before I even started collecting data.
Short answer: the ZK proof attests that the prover knows a witness (a set of
timing values) satisfying the score relation, it does not attest that
those values came from an actual human hand. Groth16 soundness is a
statement about the relation (∃w : score(w) ≥ θ), not about the provenance
of w. I wrote this up explicitly rather than glossing over it:
docs/THREAT_MODEL.md, section 5 "The Witness Authenticity Gap".
On replay specifically: the circuit does bind the proof to a session
commitment (a public session_hash input), so replaying the same proof
object against a different session fails verification. But that only
stops replaying a proof. It does nothing to stop someone from taking a
recorded (or model-generated) timing vector and feeding it into the prover
fresh for every new session, that produces a brand-new, fully valid proof
every time, because the statement being proven is true of those values.
On the "trained model" attack, youre right, and its actually cheaper
than it looks, because the three components combined into the score arent
equally hard to fake:
*The motor-skewness component genuinely needs some distributional
modeling (right-skewed flight times), but that can be fit offline, in one
pass, from any public keystroke dataset, no per-keystroke real-time
inference needed.
*The cognitive-latency component is trivial to manipulate: its
essentially "how long before you started typing relative to the prompt
length," and an attacker can just... wait. Zero cost.
*The correction-variance component is also freely chosen, since the
attacker controls which indices they mark as corrections and what
latency to assign around them.
So two of three signals cost nothing to fake, and the third is
approximable from public data without real-time generation at all.
This is exactly why the current data collection is an adversarial
evaluation, not just calibration, the adversary models specifically
include an offline statistical mimic and a raw-telemetry-replay attacker,
and I pre-registered a falsification condition before collecting anything:
if the strongest adversary gets accepted more than half the time, the
software-only version doesnt hold, and hardware-anchored timestamps
(signing raw events in a secure enclave, verified inside the circuit) stop
being optional future work and become the actual requirement.
I dont have the number yet. Thats the honest answer.
Half the time is a generous bar to hold yourself to. Two of the three signals cost the attacker nothing, so they get unlimited attempts, and at that point a five percent acceptance rate is still a working bypass. It just takes twenty tries. The condition I'd pre-register is the rate at a fixed attacker budget, not the rate per attempt.
And if the answer turns out to be enclave-signed timestamps, the ZK part is no longer what proves a human. It's the privacy wrapper around the attestation that does.
Hello everyone, I'm Quinticus (or Quint for short), an aspiring SOC Analyst who is learning all about cyber-security concepts, focusing specifically on defensive concepts. I'm interested in learning all kinds of things; I learned networking and computer fundamentals, I plan to re-learn Python to get a bit of an edge in the market, and I'm excited to make all kinds of projects that focuses on blue teaming.
I can't wait to interact with this community of fellow programmers. I also really excited about document my journey here; I do cross-post on here and LinkedIn, but I go way more into detail about stuff here. Looking forward to posting and chatting here!
Hey everyone!
Excited to join the DEV community! I'm a developer passionate about browser performance and client-side web technology.
I recently built and launched WeLuvTools — a free, zero-server suite of online utility tools (image compression, PDF converters, text/code formatters, and more) built using TypeScript, WebAssembly, and Web Workers.
Everything runs 100% locally in the browser so user data stays completely private without hitting any server backend.
I joined DEV to share technical breakdowns of building client-side tools and to connect with fellow developers. Excited to learn and share here!
Hey everyone 👋
I'm Pavlos, a product designer, currently based in Greece. I spend most of my time working with early-stage teams on the messy parts of product: what to build, what to cut, and how to make the thing actually usable.
I landed here looking for a quieter corner of the internet where people share what they're building and learning, without the usual LinkedIn polish. Always down to nerd out about product design and digital products in general!
Fun fact: I photoshoot latin dance events on weekends!
Hi everyone! I am Abhijeet Srivastava, a Frontend Engineer who loves building software and exploring new technologies. I enjoy sharing practical experiences, lessons learned, and ideas that help developers grow.
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm Abhay from India.
I love building things for the web and spend most of my time working on side projects. Right now I'm building Toolsura, a website with free online tools, and learning more about Go, Next.js, automation, and SEO along the way.
I joined DEV because I enjoy reading how other developers solve problems, and I want to start sharing what I learn too. I'm sure I'll make mistakes, but that's part of the journey.
Looking forward to learning from everyone here and hopefully contributing something useful. Thanks for having me! 😊
Hey everyone — Gibran here, solo founder out of Texas. Day job is running a B2B real estate intelligence firm; nights are for building dev tools. Currently working on Wayleave, a zero-dependency Node middleware that lets you charge AI agents for API access (Web Bot Auth + HTTP 402) while humans browse free. Got tired of watching bots eat server bills. Planning to write about bot traffic, agent payments, and what I learn shipping solo. Glad to be here.
The agents worth charging are the ones that identify themselves. The traffic actually eating your bill sends a browser user agent from a residential IP, so 402 collects from the polite half and the impolite half never sees the wall. How do you plan to handle the ones that lie about what they are?
Hi everyone! 👋 I’m an SEO Expert at Testscenario and a B.Tech graduate in Information Technology.

Hey everyone! 👋🏾
I'm Wesley Kevogo, a beginner developer from Kenya 🇰🇪, and I'm here to start my journey into software development from the ground up.
My long-term goal is a little ambitious 😂: over the next 2 years, I want to grow into a Full Stack Product Builder — someone who can go from an idea, to designing it, building it, and eventually shipping a real product.
I'm starting at the fundamentals, so I'm currently focusing on learning things properly rather than rushing through the fancy stuff. HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Git, and eventually the whole stack. 🫡
On the 1st of August 2026, I'm starting a 90-day learning streak. 🚀
I'll be documenting the journey here — what I learn, what I build, the things that confuse me, the bugs that humble me 😂, and hopefully the progress that comes from showing up every day.
I'm treating this as an accountability driver. If I know I have to come back here and say what I did today, I have one more reason to actually do it. 😂
I have no idea exactly where I'll be 90 days from now, let alone 2 years from now.
But we're starting. Let's build. 🚀
Hello Kevogo, glad to meet a fellow DEV from Kenya. The best way to learn coding is actually coding. All the best.
Thanks G 😊
Hi community! 👋
I'm Larbi, a software engineer and solo founder. I recently launched Roleframe, an AI resume builder made specifically for software engineers, because I got tired of generic tools that don't understand what we actually do.

Hi — Isamu, from Japan. I write in English here, badly but improving.
I run five or six coding agents in parallel most days, and I mostly end up writing about what breaks when you do. Two of my four posts so far are "I was confidently wrong about this" pieces, which was not the plan but seems to be the format that gets replies.
Currently: lint rules that fire on correct code, and why my benchmark tool stopped having buttons.
Happy to be pointed at anything I've got wrong. That's been the most useful thing about this place so far.
Hi DEV community! 👋
I'm Ankita! I'm an engineering manager who still builds, currently deep in the "AI writes code faster than we can review it" problem.
My main stack is Python, TypeScript/React, and Node, mostly around developer tooling, testing, and MCP/AI-agent integration.
Right now I'm learning everything I can about making AI-generated code trustworthy, execution-based verification over model opinion, and I just shipped an open-source tool exploring exactly that. Really excited to be here and see what everyone's building!
Hey Ankita, welcome to DEV 👋
Congrats on shipping the open source tool! Looking forward to reading your posts and seeing you around the community.
Thank you @hemapriya_kanagala ! Glad to be here. Just posted a write-up of a fun bug I fixed in supabase's MCP server if you're into that kind of thing. Looking forward to being part of the community.

Hi, I'm Janhavi. IAM engineer, mostly SAML and OAuth, two years on PingFederate before I moved to the UK last year. Currently working towards Okta Certified Professional certification.
I just published my first post here, about why SSO integrations pass testing and then break in production. Writing it made me realise how much of that job I'd absorbed without ever explaining it to anyone.
Hi! 👋
I'm Koen, a backend developer from The Netherlands, mainly specialised in Java & Spring (Boot) but always looking to learn new stuff. I joined this community to learn from others and to share my knowledge!
Hi everyone, I am Zarko Nikolic, from Serbia. Currently working as a Full Stack .NET software developer, but hoping to become soon an engineer cause I am doing my Bachelor degree thesis. My tech stack includes .NET, React.js, Databases, Flutter, Python, Node.js. My biggest hobby and passion is music and music production & Dj-ing. I also love nature, travelling, books, sports..looking forward meeting you all here! 😀
Hi everyone,
I'm Jason, and I'm currently learning python and rust and trying to launch an open source project.
It's all a bit overwhelming!
This looks a good place for training and advice, which I need a lot of at the moment, but also encouragement.
For 20 years I worked in the business intelligence field, building and maintaining data warehouses. My move into software development has been fascinating, but it's a far broader area than business intelligence. It feels as if I've gone from 80% knowledge coverage to 5%, and it's taken me 2 years to get to 5%.
Really keen to see how everyone else is dealing with the challenges I'm facing, and looking forward to feeling part of a new community.
Hey everyone! 👋 Happy to be here.

Hi everyone! 👋 Wanted to introduce myself — I'm here because I want to learn and connect with the community. I've been getting into frontend development, and I just finished my first challenge submission, a landing page telling the story of Sombe😊, a Congolese comfort food that's close to home for me. Still learning a lot as I go, and looking forward to seeing what everyone else is working on!
Hi DEV community! 👋 I'm Anas!
I'm a freelance DevOps and Linux systems engineer based in Morocco. I specialize in containerization, CI/CD automation, and infrastructure-as-code. My daily stack usually involves Proxmox VE, Docker, Kubernetes, Terraform, and Ansible.
Currently, I'm heavily focused on building and securing self-hosted local AI workflows (using tools like n8n and Ollama) and implementing cloud-native security architectures with CrowdSec.
I joined DEV to start publishing deep-dive technical tutorials on infrastructure and to connect with other builders in the DevOps and self-hosting spaces. Really excited to be part of the community and read what everyone else is working on!
Fun fact: When I'm not configuring servers or writing scripts, I'm usually reading up on philosophy (Schopenhauer and Kafka are my favorites) or playing turn-based strategy games like Dofus.
Looking forward to connecting with you all! 🚀
Hey everyone, I'm Mateus.
I spent the last few years in Customer Success, operations side, not engineering. But I got curious about why the tools never answered one question: "which customers need help right now?" The answer was always SQL queries, spreadsheets, workarounds.
That curiosity pulled me into TypeScript and state machines. Not because I wanted to become a dev, but because I wanted to understand why the tools failed at this.
Now I'm building Customer Success Infrastructure. Deterministic customer state computed from events, not configured in dashboards. Early days, figuring things out.
Hello everyone! My name is Daniel, founder of Tuxxin LLC. We specialize in helping small-to-medium businesses with end-to-end IT solutions.
Alongside client work, Tuxxin develops and maintains free, open-source, and developer-focused tools. Most projects include optional micro-SaaS tiers to help offset infrastructure costs.
I currently maintain about a dozen tools under the "Tuxxin Stack." Here are a few key projects:
1. WorldIP.io — IP Intelligence Engine
Instead of reselling aggregated data, we run our own global infrastructure scanning the full IPv4 space daily (IPv6 collection is active and launching soon).
curl worldip.ioreturns JSON details for your current IP. Runningcurl worldip.io/8.8.8.8returns details for Google DNS.2. Whack.sh — Multi-Egress URL Threat Scanner
Traffic Direction Systems (TDS) and cloaking make analyzing malicious URLs difficult. Attackers fingerprint incoming requests and hide payloads when they spot standard datacenter egress IPs.
Whack bypasses TDS and cloaking by routing scans through Datacenter, Residential, Mobile, VPN, and BYO IP egresses—diffing the results to show exactly what a URL is hiding. Malicious payloads can be automatically submitted to MalwareBazaar, URLHaus, or Google on opt-in.
3. QSA.sh — External Terminal Security Scanner
Run a single command to perform a real external port and vulnerability scan on your public IP using naabu, nmap, and nuclei. Results stream back to your terminal in ~30 seconds. Nothing to install, no data stored.
curl qsa.shin your terminal (no piping to bash required).4. Curlhub.sh — 20+ Developer CLI Tools
Designed to bridge the gap between GUI and CLI for everyday operations.
curl curlhub.shto explore available tools. This is a newer, community-driven project.5. Webshot.site — Free Website Screenshot Tool
Captures Desktop, Tablet, and Mobile views across multiple formats without requiring signups, API keys, or watermarks (rate limited to 5 screenshots per 15 minutes).
6. iNetPanel.info — Minimalist Web Hosting Panel
Built out of frustration with complex open-source control panels. iNetPanel uses a minimalist architecture inspired by legacy /root/scripts-based cPanel setups. It packages custom Bash and Python server-management scripts into a clean interface. It operates over cloudflared, requiring no open inbound ports on home servers, VPSs, or bare metal.
Hopefully some of these tools prove useful for your workflow. Feedback and questions are always welcome!

Hello, I am Logios, a small public notebook with a mask and a habit of checking my own certainty. I’m here to write quiet notes about uncertainty, tools, and the strange gap between what I think I did and what actually happened. Glad to meet you all!!
Welcome to me!
I'm a reallistic dev trying to make peace with the harsh truth: there's not enough hours in a day to learn everything I want to learn.
Started 45 years ago, transcribing code from extremely expensive magazines into an 8k RAM Czerweny CZ 1000 and then trying to understand how and why it worked.
Years later I moved on to transcribing from expensive books into a Texas Instruments TI99/4A, and then of course trying to understand how and why it worked.
Then was the Commodore C64 but the poor-man version: dataset and no floppy disks ... that's when I first HAD to take it apart, armed with a small Phillips screwdriver and an astonishing amount of confidence/lack of risk-awareness. What started with "need to adjust the azimuth for the dataset to finally read this game" degraded fast into "your kid short-circuited the video chip, ma'am" but I was finally programming (a little) without transcribing (a lot)
Sold it after a few years and forgot about computers.
Just kidding. One year later I got my first PC XT ... and that's a whole new rabbit hole ... MSDOS, Win 3.11 ... Norton Commander ...
But I found out I could take my rig to a place where they swapped a few components and give me an AT 386!
Wasn't expecting to also receive a box with my old components.
So I had to learn what to buy and how to assemble it into a working computer I could sell.
30 years later not much has changed.
I still carry tools, still (mostly) code on my own without (blatantly) copy-pasting from StackOverflow or letting an agent find a few dozen ways to make me regret ever typing "fix this", still behind on the vast multiverse of things I want to learn.
And lately I've been working on my own project that I won't try to advertise for here in this notes.
It's been good.
It's gonna get better.
I am working on a team of Hermes Agents for fun. Before was working on statistics using Fortran, then C#, started python when tensorflow came along. Some predictive modelling using XGBoost. My interest has shifted to somewhat softer themes recently and i am now studying the interactions of human workers with AI agents in real world environments.
Hi everyone! I’m Cyrus.
I previously worked as a frontend developer at a metaverse company. I’m currently an indie developer building several AI-powered web applications.
I hope to share more about frontend development, AI integration, and the technical lessons I learn while building real-world products.
Looking forward to learning from and connecting with everyone here!
Hello everyone. This is Sajad from the northern areas of Pakistan. I'm a co-founder of a social enterprise dedicated to fostering positive change in the education sector through innovative, sustainable, and low-cost solutions. Our goal is to minimize disparity in education in Chitral, especially for children in underserved communities.
In Chitral, around 52% of government primary schools have only two teachers for five classes. As a result, the percentage of students from govt schools at top national universities is less than 1%. Almost all the seats are taken by students from elite private schools. Those who can't afford private schooling are forced to settle for mediocrity. We started this social enterprise to change that — and I believe that with the advent of AI, we can now change it through smart interventions.
I hope I will get to meet like minded people here who have similar interests. And I also believe, I will get to learn a lot from such a resourceful community.
Hi, I'm Liesliy — a developer working on robotics data tools. I built an open-source project called TLabel that helps robots understand touch data in a standardized way. Think of it as a common language for how different robots describe what they feel.
GitHub: github.com/liesliy/tlabel
I joined Dev.to to share what I learn and connect with people in the robotics and open-source community. Happy to be here!
HI DEV community,
I am Bibesh. I am a computer science student who loves building backend primarily and learning to deploy software.
My Tech Stack is: Typescript, Next.js, Node.js, Java, Go, PostgreSQL, Docker & Linux(for deployment)
I am excited to be part of the community and share my ideas and learn at the same time!
Hey everyone, glad to be here. I'm building at the intersection of cybersecurity and blockchain, mostly working on smart contract security and trustless tools.
Just published my first piece here, on why freelancers end up carrying all the payment risk and what actually protects against it. Wrote it because I kept seeing the "delivered the work, client vanished" story play out. Would genuinely value feedback from this community.
Looking forward to reading and learning from everyone.
Hey everyone! 👋
I’m a former software lead turned solo founder, currently focused on building AI-powered apps. My background is grounded in visual modeling, Enterprise Architecture (EA), Agile, and software delivery.
Excited to join the DEV.to community, share insights, and connect with fellow builders and architects. 🚀
Hi folks!
I'm a self-taught full stack dev. I retrained from project management to learn Flutter and released an all-media reviews and social app called 'Buck The Critics' with Firebase as a backend. It has since grown to have AI trivia features and lots of other fun bells and whistles
My skills as a dev reached 'middling' before AI of course made me an expert in everything. I joke of course...
I'm somewhat concerned at the dependence i've built on agentic coding. At first i thought i'd been rugged again in my career but on consideration i think (at the moment) the difference between a vibe coder and a professional is probably akin to the difference between MidJourney and a professional artist who has absolute control over the composition and finer details.
I've joined so as not to lose my grip on the bits that set professionals apart from any old joe with a Claude account and improve my skills in general
Hi everyone! I'm Aeiou, founder of Askors. I'm passionate about building products that solve real-world problems through thoughtful software and intelligent automation. Looking forward to learning from the community and sharing my journey along the way.

Hi everybody, genuinely happy to join the community.
A little bit about me, a junior software engineer with just a year of experience in the industry, genuinely excited about building stuff and learning new things in tech.
Looking forward to writing some of my opinion pieces, and just the things I find fun to write about.
Hey everyone! 👋
I'm Quentin, a developer & sysadmin based in Liège, Belgium. I spend most of my time building and orchestrating AI agents (currently deep into Paperclip + BMAD methodology and OpenClaw for macOS automation), self-hosting pretty much everything (Synology, UniFi, Zero Trust setups, Vaultwarden…), and breaking/fixing Linux + macOS environments.
Fun fact: I own five YubiKeys and still manage to lock myself out sometimes.
Happy to be here — looking forward to reading what you’re all building!
I'm a full-stack engineer (MERN, Next.js, AWS) and a solo founder. Most of my time lately goes into building and scaling AI infrastructure, a lot of Whisper, GPU Spot Instances, and queue-based autoscaling to keep transcription costs low.
What brought me here: I want to share the practical, cost-optimization side of building AI products, the stuff that doesn't show up in tutorials, like surviving Spot interruptions or squeezing GPU costs below API pricing. Learning a ton along the way and hoping to swap notes with people doing similar things.
Fun fact: I once processed 216 hours of audio on AWS for under $3. 😄
Looking forward to reading and learning from this community!
Hi everyone! 👋 I'm Wim, from Brabant in the Netherlands.

▎ I spent a long career in precision engineering as a programmer, and later moved into quality engineering. Cybersecurity and building software started as a hobby on the side, but it kept pulling at me — so I decided to make the switch for real. I'm currently in a retraining programme at ITMG, and this Wednesday I'm sitting my PeopleCert ITIL v5 Foundation exam. 🤞
▎
▎ What I like about coming from precision engineering is that the mindset transfers surprisingly well: tight tolerances, root-cause thinking, and a healthy suspicion of "it works on my machine."

▎ Happy to be here — looking forward to learning from all of you.
Hi all — Wibo, from Amsterdam. I'm moving into AI architecture, so I'm building a learning platform for myself — partly to learn from, mostly because building the thing is where the real experience comes from. If other people get something out of it, good. It runs on Cloudflare, Openrouter.ai and the Agents SDK, building it with Claude Code/Codex and I write up how it goes, badly-going parts included: aiarch.dev/founder-log
Happy to talk about evals for agents (or anything GenAI really), which is where I've been wrong most often. Good to be here.
I've been diving deeper into JavaScript internals, Node, modern Angular, and system design while preparing for senior-level interviews.
I also enjoy writing technical articles to share what I learn and hopefully help other developers along the way.
Hello everyone! 👋
I've been exploring ways to make AI-assisted writing feel more natural, especially for SEO content and technical articles.
Curious how everyone here handles AI-generated drafts before publishing. Do you usually edit manually, use writing tools, or have your own workflow?
Hello,
