Pretty solid month. Glad the mood is better now! I'd still say a good idea would be for you to start a side-project, just something for yourself, even if it's a meme selector that preps it for you to post, or place in your post? Think that would save you hours in a month 😂

Thanks! Not a bad idea, though I want to focus on speaking well in interviews more. We shall see but thanks for the suggestion :D

Always a good thing to focus on. Being in-charge in an interview is a worthwhile skill, because it makes it clear they need YOU, not just a generic role filler. There's a fine line between being cocky and blowing their minds 😂

Btw, did you try the game out yet?

Yeah that 1 😂 Dementia mode, but in a way that explains how LLMs hallucinate and how cache works

good format for this. the classifier extension is interesting - detecting AI content is a harder problem than it looks from the outside, especially once people start intentionally evading it.

Thanks Mykola! For the classifier, the goal is to be used on dev.to specifically and train on dev.to specifically without relying on LLMs or other AI models in particular. My theory is that if it is more scoped, it will be more accurate and future proof since the detector adapts to the community style of writing. It will be difficult for sure, but I believe we can get there.

the scoped-to-community approach makes sense - general detectors fail on niche writing styles constantly. the part i'd watch is distribution shift as the platform's norms drift. curious what retraining looks like for this.

It would be more manual approach and yes, it's inefficient for now. The plan is having another Chrome Extension where it's goal is to extract data and store it in some database. Then, updating the dataset in the main project.

the extension-as-pipeline is a solid move. manual labeling will probably be the slow part, but that's also where the community-specific signal gets most precise.

Hey Francis, I just checked out "4 Proven Ways To Get Ahead of 99% of Programmers (2026)" from your monthly report, and it actually helped. Thanks for sharing it!

Looking forward to next month's report too 😀

That's a productive month! 🎉

Open-source contributions, AI experimentation, portfolio improvements, and continuous learning through LeetCode are all moving you in the right direction. Looking forward to seeing what you accomplish in July. 🚀

How to get into open source contributions?

francistrdev profile image
FrancisTRᴅᴇᴠ (っ◔◡◔)っ

Hey KV. For me, I would suggest on choosing a repository on GitHub that is a right fit for you based on interests and tech stack preferably. The hardest part is setting up the local environment, but after that, it should be easier to get into it. Hope this helps!

Wow!
I was thinking about sharing my learning journey, and I had nooooo idea how to do it!
What you're doing is AMAZING!
I hope one day I can do something similar (not as cool as yours, but hopefully just something to share) 🥲
Currently I simply don't have the courage to do it!

Hey Hiva! Thanks for the comment and appreciate the support! I believe people on DEV would appreciate what you post. I wouldn't worry too much about what other people thinks since everyone is really nice here! I encourage you to post if anything. We would love to see what you share on DEV!
