Hey to all the developers out there, I need a favor. I’m unemployed and to help boost my portfolio can you go check out my open-source project? It would be even better if you could give it a star. It really goes a long way in my job search. Much appreciated 🙇 github.com/8bitAlex/raid

One of my guilty pleasures is watching Ghost Hunting vids. I’m a skeptic by nature but they’re just fun to watch. I would love to be on a ghost hunting show to just be the skeptic. The dark doesn’t scare me so I’d go into the worst places totally unphased. I’m a veteran so.. expect shit talking.
Hey all, I just release the debut version of RAID, my open-source developer tool for centralized multi-repo orchestration. I was annoyed at having to scour old confluence pages to setup and run my dev environment tasks. Now it’s all a single command. Feedback is appreciated 🙇♂️ raidcli.dev
Software Engineers need a better way to showcase a portfolio. “Just make an app” requires too much upkeep and money to keep running. GitHub is also hit or miss as it doesn’t show everything you can do.
Today, we are announcing the formation of United Videogame Workers-CWA, an industry-wide union formed by @codecwa.bsky.social and @cwaunion.bsky.social 💪🎮 We're launching at #GDC2025 this morning to build a video game industry that works for us. We're done playing.
If the US wasn’t so big I think we would be doing the same
Budapest today. People are demanding that PM Orban resign.
Today would have been Sherlock’s 11th birthday. He missed it by 3 weeks. I miss you buddy.
It's the entire email list for all DOGE employees. Have fun!
If you’re an engineer, don’t be afraid to read books during work hours. It’s literally your job to stay informed. #softwaredev #dev #engineer
Monster Hunter is such a weird anomaly of a game because it’s very deeply flawed and yet insanely fun and addicting
The tech job market is insanely brutal right now. I am highly qualified with 10+ years experience and it’s almost impossible to get an interview right now. Even if you do they grill you like their life depends on it.
