Calling all home bakers! Butterbase has been rebranded, rebuilt, and relaunched! The free tier is now much more generous, and prices have been dropped for the paid plans. Our little gift to you for making it through 2025. Check it out at butterbase.app

I learned recently that one of the major reasons the employment market for developers is in such upheaval is because of all of these outfits that are trying to hire engineers just to be a face while they do all the coding much cheaper in the background.

The fact of the matter is, most companies can see through this easily. But it makes it so that only 1 in 20 (or less) of their applicants are real people trying to get a real job. Instead, companies have to wade through miles of BS in order to find those real applicants.

Who out there is actually hiring engineers? And possibly more important, how would you recommend actually getting eyes on my application and not getting lost in the shuffle as one of 5k applicants? I'm a senior engineer with 14 years of experience and finding a job has been almost impossible.

You know what I love about #3dprinting? I can decide that I want to print Obi-wanโ€™s lightsaber, and have it in less than a day. I have the fucking high ground.

I think it's important for people to realize that there are a lot of reasons Trump is doing this, and one of them is a loyalty litmus test. He's seeing just how insane he can be and keep his followers. #politics #uspol #trump

Listen, you don't have to use AI in your workflow. But if you're going around being an asshole on the internet to people who are, you are in the wrong. Especially when those people are just trying to build a business from the ground up and can't afford to pay a graphic designer. #AI #Opinion

The amount of people getting fooled by fake movie/show announcements is about to skyrocket #anime #ranma1/2 #ranma #akane #netflix #announcement

I like to think I'm fairly up to date with current technology trends, so I started trying #vibecoding before there was even a term for it. And you know what? The results are pretty much garbage, which is why my perfectionist ass hasn't put out anything built with it.

And this is from someone that has been programming for 14 years and knows how to prompt. Time to take up cyber security.

@dharam.bsky.social loving your Funnel app! I have 2 requests for destination services that would really take it over the top though. 1. Paperless NGX 2. Hoarder It would be so nice to be able to use it as a document scanner for paperless especially.

I really missed the screenshot feature from the Apollo app for Reddit, so I wrote a tool that kind of replicates it. wtz.nz/redshot Really nice for sharing Reddit posts and some comments without actually taking a screenshot. #sideproject #programming #reddit #svelte

Does anyone else feel like Marvel was trying to warn us with Hydra? Because this is all feeling super familiar, in a much less dramatic and more inept kind of way.

It's sad how many people are going to be fooled by yesterday's political stunt. We're about to witness TikTok becoming just like Twitter. RIP.

Lol the South Korean president was just arrested after being impeached. That is how you do things. #Korea #SouthKorea #News

This is cursed, but I love it `inxi -Fxxc0z | goshot --to-stdout | curl -F "file=@-" -F "filename=inxi.png" 0x45.st/p` Pipes the output of inxi to goshot to create a screenshot, then sends that to 0x45 (my paste/file bin). The result: 0x45.st/p/PJxLKw7L.png
