Hey all. Another week, another welcome thread!

Speaking of, welcome to DEV! As mention in a few welcome threads before, I am planning on introducing myself on Welcome Thread v400! I made a promise to @javz that I will formally introduced myself on that thread. Look forward to it :D

Hi DEV! I'm Victor, a CSE student in Hyderabad. I build AI agents where the risky decisions live in plain code and the model does the explaining: a touch-free maintenance copilot, a bid-compliance checker for Smart India Hackathon, and a tool that proves bank statements against their own running balance. Here to write up what actually broke while building them.

Lightman Miao •

Hey all 👋

I’m Lightman, an engineer in Seattle. I’ve spent 8 years bouncing between startups, from angel to Series B, and finally decided to build my own thing.

Currently working on Hunicode.ai - a place to practice AI coding interviews. I built it because I needed somewhere to collect the AI coding interview questions I’d come across and practice them myself. Figured it might help anyone in the same boat.

Looking forward to being part of this community and sharing what I’ve learned!

YOO EVERYONE, hope yall are having a great week...so far.

Im Ashar, an IBDP graduate from Pakistan spending my gap year building complex systems from first principles. I don't want to treat math and AI libraries as black boxes. I want to build the engine. MUEHEHEHEHE 😊

Here is what I’m documenting on DEV:

The Math Engine: Writing a custom C++ linear algebra library from scratch (cache-blocked multiplication, complex numbers, eigenvalues).

The Simulator: Using my own math engine to build a state-vector quantum circuit simulator, validated against Qiskit.

The Security: Containerizing the simulator and building a secure CI/CD pipeline with GitHub Actions, cppcheck, and Trivy.

I’ll be writing about C++ numerics, quantum computing, and DevOps. I'm just starting out and have a lot to learn, though I have always been inclined towards Quantum Computing and research, If you 🫵🏼 love deep dives into how things work under the hood, we can connect :>

Welcome @asharali. Building the engine yourself is the best way to learn it. I started with assembly and C too, and now work in C++ on drilling robots. Looking forward to the cache-blocking post.

Olá, pessoal! Cheguei aqui na comunidade para acompanhar as discussões sobre desenvolvimento de produtos, trocar experiências com outros criadores e compartilhar um pouco dos bastidores de tirar a TestaApp do papel. Atualmente, estou aprendendo muito sobre os desafios de escalar marketplaces de duas pontas e estruturar lógica de negócios. Uma curiosidade é que o projeto nasceu justamente para resolver uma dor real e diária de quem desenvolve apps mobile! E vocês, o que os trouxeram até aqui hoje?

Hey! 👋 Solo builder here. While everyone's chasing the AI app hype, I'm taking a different route: using Next.js & AI tools to rebuild a very traditional brick-and-mortar industry (Textile & Apparel Sourcing).

Currently building KeqiaoGuide to solve real-world supply chain friction. Excited to be part of the community!
