Accepted a job offer 😊 the job hunt is over!!!
Congrats, Jake!!! 🎉🎉🎉
Thanks Ayu 😊😊😊
I'm so happy for you! Congratulations 🎊 🎊 🎊
Thank you Dumebi 😊😊😊
Well done 👏 What was your experience like? I'm at 80 sent applications 10 interviews, 3 offers I didn't accept and 6 rejections for the roles I really wanted. It's getting exhausting
Sadly, your experience sounds very familiar to a lot of other engineers I've talked to over the last few months...and mine wasn't much better. I submitted over 120 applications, received lots of rejection emails, had 19 total interviews between 5 companies of which I was rejected by 3 of them. I was in the last part of interviewing with the 5th when I accepted the offer from the 4th.
The process is really rough right now. Especially when you compare it to a year or 2 ago. With all the layoffs that have gone on over the last several months, there are a LOT of engineers out there looking for jobs. I've seen some positions with more than 1000 applicants 😬 It's really hard to stand out in a crowd like that...
Congrats!
thanks Thomas 😊😊😊
My project is moving from AngularJS to Web Components. I started learning about Web Components and Reactivity in JS.
I'm exploring any JS library that can add Reactivity to my JS codebase.
I found an excellent article about Reactivity
Creating an account on dev.to lol
Welcome. 😁
Thanks Dumebi! :)
Welcome to DEV Community, Tanweer! 👋🏼😄
Heyy!! Ayu
Thanks! :)
Then.. welcome ! 🎉
Welcome to the community!
Hey Thanks man!
Started a small personal project a little while ago and it's done and up on github :)
Banksy. The documentation definitely needs some work but it's nice to have something I can point to on my resume that i made :)
Oh awesome, Ashe! I almost expected it to be about the graffiti artist, haha. Anywho, congrats on getting this one up and running. 🙌
I had a really good morning and a really good hot cup of tea =D
Cheers to that! ☕️ (got a good cup of joe in my hand this AM 😀)
That's awesome :D
I think my anxiety in interviews has gotten a bit better. Also I got 6 interviews this week.
Woot! Wow, that's a heckuva lot of interviews, Elizabeth. I hope those interviews all go well (you got this!!) and that you find something good.
Started studying for certifications; continued studying tech courses; designing and shaping the basics of new projs.
I wrote an article about my struggle with Impostor syndrome and the steps I'm taking to get better. The article blew up more than I anticipated it would. Makes me very happy.
I attended my first Dev mod meet up, and I enjoyed every bit of it.
Not been my best week, but it was a good week at all. ❤️
I have created a proper dad joke of a meme for Meme Monday next week. Looking forward to the cringe-laughs.
I love rats, so rat gifs are always a win :D
Got more 200 followers on dev.to. Haha :D. Follow me if you wanna me tell about Life of Java Developer
I got a chance to talk on Virtual Coffee Podcast about Preptember and Hacktoberfest. And the episode is up this week! 😍
I wrote a post after taking a long break
My app got over 400 visitors in the past 2 weeks. I was very skeptical about paying for it to be listed on a website, but I went through with it. The site that I listed it on(topai.tools) skyrocketed my views.
You can check out the site at wpimagines.com.
Wrote an article here, improved my linkedin, started a new project. Improving .1% per day!
Learning the basics of godot and game design (this part is still a work in progress).
Got my text files linker project working with its MVP features done 💪
It's my first Rust project, so I'm learning still, it's riddled with inane comments... might be an example/tutorial resource? 😅
It's intended to become a replacement for my old bash-builder utility which hasn't seen much love lately since moving more towards python, but I reckoned a tool that allows snippet re-use and deploying single files combined from multiple ones would still be useful as a general purpose.
So... here we are!

I18n.localeChanges in Controller Leaks to Other Threads by snaka · Pull Request #267 · moekidev/timesyI finally understand how to approach solving problems, got a few wins and few losses but the progress is much better that last week, definitely!
We've got "statistically significant numbers" on how much more product we're able to move through a Shopify website with our AI chatbot, and the figures are almost 400% additional sales. For this particular client we're selling products worth $34,975.92 every month. This is product he was not able to move previously. Notice, we're charging €198 per month for this product, so hold on to your Willies, we're anticipating a RUSH of clients ^_^
Yet again, not really software development relevant, but it is software, AI, and software definitely :)
Got the site I’ve been working on ready for launch after client training/preview Monday. Waiting for them to finish their side so we can flip the DNS switch and make it live.
I knew you would ask this question again lol ... remember I was busy with promises and them. I kinda figured it out and connected the dots.
I feel like Promises are not tutored properly and maybe even on purpose. I don't know.
I been deep in errors and stuff.
Only to think it started with API’s. I then discovered the darks side. That I knew existed but not to this extent.
Went through books like :”you don’t know JS and may others cos I thought they would teach me something but they are a bit boring and Tiring...a bit verbose perhaps a bit too narrative like. Perhaps they are for someone that already know JS.lol the irony.
But anyways I’m still on. it seems like there is more to learn. When will this end ?!
What else is out there anyone care to list for me.
Unfortunately, our submission for a new version of the mobile app was rejected by the Google Play Store due to a few bugs 😢
On a positive note, the number of views on my post here has now reached approximately 20k 😊
After long procrastination, I finally wrote a blog.

Passed my Oracle Cloud AI Foundations Associate exam. Happy to now be multi-cloud AI certified (Azure and Oracle Cloud).
Finished the last project in the Let's Get Rusty bootcamp! And now I'll move on to building my own apps using Rust 😎
Finally started studying for all of my classes; not just the ones that are important. I'm busier, but I feel much more accomplished.
I made Ronsay. It's legit cowsay but with a photo of my dog, Ron. It really brightens up the terminal
I was asked to give a talk at a popular local dev meetup!
We officially announced my promotion to AI Specialist this week! Also I finished a pair of Coursera courses on ML topics and I submitted a number of proposals to write technical books in the new year.
Find some beta testers for my service breves.it and receive some feedback.
I gave a talk at a conference and wrote a blog post on dev.to about a topic from the session.
Still gaining traction on my project, findcool.tools, even after Product Hunt launch.
