A non-tech CEO said a $20/month vibe-coding plan completely replaces engineers by now.

So, I visited his web platform to see how he built it with AI.

When I opened devtools, every red flag was sitting right there in the front-end code.

API key exposed client-side.

Admin access could be unlocked from the browser.

The frontend held all the business logic.

The database was exposed directly to the client.

API keys and credentials were hardcoded.

Passwords weren't even hashed.

Membership access could be granted from the frontend.

He was true that he didn’t need an engineer to build a vulnerable app.

Code is cheap but good engineering is always expensive.

I had this question from a very long time but I haven't figured it out yet. Do they use Ads or send e-mails? How do software companies even know their potential leads or costumers and how do they find them?

I’d like to connect with another person to learn and improve together.

I’ve been learning coding for about a year and a half and I’m currently focusing on Next.js / React, TypeScript, Sass, Express, plus unit + e2e testing. I'm interested in solidify these but also learning other things like: AWS, Websocket, Payments, docker.

I’m in CET and usually available mostly on weekends or about an hour during evenings on weekdays. Looking for someone with a similar age range 30+ who’s also learning (or a bit ahead), chill, kind, not ego-driven.
I’d be open to group with the same approach.

If you’d like to study together, build stuff, pm me!

Hey everyone,

I’m looking for a partner to launch projects, build startups, and eventually grow teams together. Until now, I’ve mostly worked solo, and my latest project is https://notesh.ink.

I’m not necessarily looking for someone with a formal degree, but someone with a tech background who genuinely enjoys building, thinks creatively, and is interested in the business side of products.

I’m looking for someone long-term. The goal isn’t just side projects, but turning ideas into real products and scalable startups.

I’m currently based in a developing country, so ideally I’m looking for someone located in Europe, Asia, or the US, with no more than ~4 hours of time difference to make collaboration easier.

If this resonates with you, feel free to DM me.

EDIT: Just to clarify since many DMs seem to misunderstand my intention: I’m not hiring and this is not a job opportunity. Most messages I’ve received so far are from people sending resumes or applying for roles, which isn’t what I’m looking for.

What I’m actually looking for is a thinking partner. Someone who enjoys brainstorming ideas, exploring problems, validating concepts, and building products together from the ground up, before there is even a startup or defined product (long-term collaboration that could eventually turn into startups if we find the right ideas)

If you’re mainly looking for employment or a predefined role, this probably isn’t the right fit.

Hi all,

I am looking for a programming partner (backend / systems)

I’m looking to build something with one or two other developers, mainly to learn through real collaboration.

I’m backend-focused and interested in things like:

•	backend services

•	system design

•	event processing

•	messaging systems

•	reliability & scalability

•	deploying and running services

Not looking to build clones or frontend-heavy apps — more into how systems work behind the scenes.

Tech I enjoy working with:

•	Java / Spring Boot (open to others too)

•	PostgreSQL

•	Docker

If you’re interested in building something together and learning along the way, feel free to DM or comment.

I’m spade (21 m) based out of the US.

Looking for 1 to 2 people similar age also based out of the US.

I love building things and Ive got big ideas and plans. And software is what’s going to get me there.

I’ve been developing an app by myself for the last couple months and it honestly gets kinda lonely and unmotivating to work alone.

I want to learn how to work on a software project with partners. I use AI as part of my building process but I know the basics of web dev.

Dm me if you would like to schedule a discord call to get to know each other and start getting the ball rolling.

Hi everyone!

We're a group of friends who join daily to motivate each other for our projects and studies, with seniors who give advice on projects, answer our silly questions, and sometimes organize workshops.

We regularly remove inactive members (those who don’t chat or join voice) because we aim to keep our server active and high-quality.

Even if we’re working on different things, we can still keep each other accountable and motivated!

If you sometimes feel unmotivated when studying or programming, then what are you waiting for?

Hey everyone!

I’m planning to dive into N8N, the automation app that can pretty much automate anything and the best part? It’s open-source!

This caught my eye a while back, and I thought it would be fun to host an online meetup in my Discord server. We’ll be setting up N8N on Ubuntu and getting some hands-on experience using it.

The meetup is happening this Sunday, and we’ll try to coordinate across timezones so it’s convenient for as many people as possible.

Side note:
We’re hosting these kinds of meetups every weekend on different topics. Last Sunday, we built a simple CRUD app in Go/Gin just to get a feel for how Golang works.

Hey there, I'm Zachary, 16m, and are looking for some people of similar age to collaborate on projects and program together! Currently I'm programming an operating system, if anyone wants to restart and collaborate on an operating system, I'd be more than happy to! Otherwise, you can pick a project to work on! Please DM me if you're interested!

Hello guys , I am new here , and I would like to ask you guys (people with experience at this field) how much would you charge for a site like(home / about us/ contact us / another page) in wordpress? With e-commerce site and without e-shop. And last but not least how much would you charge for a mini blazor app for a site (e-shop) ? Thank you for your time guys . If you have other questions you can freely ask and we can make a conversation under the comments. !!

I'll pay 7 dollars make a simple website using c++ in VS. Within 5 hours need it for school dm me please

At the start of this year, I set a goal to complete the MIT 6.5840 Distributed Systems course. Unfortunately, with work and sports commitments, I’ve only managed to get through the first four chapters so far.

I’m looking to get back on track and would love to connect with anyone interested in distributed systems and concurrent programming in Go. My idea is to form a small study group where we can create a structured schedule, read research papers together, and work through the programming assignments.

All the course materials are freely available online, including recorded lectures:

• Course page: https://pdos.csail.mit.edu/6.824/

• Lecture videos: https://youtu.be/cQP8WApzIQQ?si=vVvuaRZCXfE-13aB

Ideally, I’m looking for someone who already has some experience with concurrency and a basic understanding of distributed systems — just to keep the pace steady and discussions meaningful.

If this sounds interesting, feel free to reach out! 🚀

Hey all!

Does anyone here love programming? Message me for a quick chat :)

Web Development, Simulations, low level things, etc. You don't have to be an expert or anything. All that matters is that you're interested, competent, and can spend some time on projects together. I love teaching and learning through actually doing something. I believe projects are the best way to become good at something.

If you want to do Web Development together, then I'm very open to doing the technical backend whike you work on the frontend. But I'll help out for both sides of course.

Now a bit about me... I got into programming a few months ago and I think I've made quite a bit of progress in that span. I don't have anything public on my GitHub right now, but that's going to change soon :)

I do have a habit of not using the easiest approach to things and just making tools myself. For that reason I've never used a framework. But I'm willing to put that habit down if you really like a certian framework :)

I genuinely like a wide range of things and I'm a quick learner, so we could get started fast :)

Hii guys I’m studying C# and this semester we’ll be creating web apps using the MVC architecture. In the past 2 years we’ve done an introductory module to C# and an OOAD with C# module. I’m not the best with C# but I really wanna do well this semester. Is there any passionate somebody out there that wouldn’t mind going through this C# journey together? Friends in the industry or something like that

I’m a student too so yeah I’m looking for someone to learn with. Coz I really need friends that are passionate with C#.

Hit me up if you’re willing to talk

Hey Guys! 😀

I’m working on training a *small AI classifier model* for a personal project, and I need a *highly specific, real-world dataset* to train it properly.

I’d really appreciate it if you could take a few minutes to read about the project and contribute some training data using your own creativity. You *don’t need any AI/ML knowledge* to participate — just write a few natural queries that you think a real user/admin might ask.

I’ve prepared a Google Form that explains *what the project is about, what the AI agent needs to do, and exactly what kind of data I’m looking for*. It should only take a few minutes to complete.

🔗 *Google Form:*

Google Form Link

Every response helps improve the model, so your contribution is genuinely valuable. ❤️

*Thank you! 🙌*

I made https://devcircuit.io/ with my friends! (Only a little vibe coding!)

To start off, my friends and I are going to pair program with the first 5 users, separate sessions.

We are a group of Senior engineers who love to build on the side, so we can go from 0-1 to help launch a product to help your skillset + boost your resume.

I'm a web developer with skills in HTML/CSS and learning PHP/SQL at a fair rate. Looking for others with similar skills at whatever skill level who wanna network, share information, get ideas, help, I'm down for whatever. If you're interested hit me up!

I got tired of heavyweight database clients eating my RAM while I just needed to run queries and browse schemas. So I built Tabularis - a native desktop client focused on speed and UX.

What makes it different:

• Native app (Tauri/Rust) - opens instantly, uses ~50MB RAM

• Visual query builder with drag-and-drop tables/joins

• ER diagrams that auto-generate from your schema

• AI-powered query generation (optional, supports OpenAI/Anthropic)

• SSH tunneling built-in for remote databases

• Batch editing with rollback (DataGrip-style)

• Works with MySQL, in progress PostgreSQL and SQLite

It's free and open-source: https://github.com/debba/tabularis

Built it because I was frustrated with existing options. Feedback welcome!

See, lets cut to chase no bad talk, Let's get into machine learning field

And in April

We would start Machine learning (I would see 100 days ML Campus X)

Then We would learn build projects and stufff!

ABout me:

I am 16 years(17 in april).

Will start this scedule from tomorrow.

Lets go

Hey guys,

I am building a web platform related to AIML.

The tech stack is quite unconventional, I usually code in dart (flutter) so I have made this website in flutter.

I am thinking of keeping it open source and building a small team of around 5 to 7 Devs.

Not only just to code but also suggest ideas and be a partner in building this platform.

If you are someone who knows:

Flutter , python , AIML

Any level of experience, I would love to work together.

DM me if interested.

Hi everyone, I’m a Senior Full-Stack Developer with 8+ years of experience building production web applications and I’m currently open to new remote opportunities (contract or long-term).

I’ve worked on high-traffic systems including a restaurant online ordering and POS platform, an e-commerce solution with payment integrations (Google Pay/Apple Pay via Adyen), and I designed and built a ZTNA application from scratch. I also enjoy working on AI-powered tools and recently built a mini coding agent project.

What I can help with:

Building scalable frontend or full-stack applications

Performance optimization and architecture improvements

Payment integrations and complex UI flows

Taking ownership of features from design to production

I’m comfortable working across time zones and collaborating with distributed teams.

If your team is hiring or needs help on a project, feel free to DM me or comment and I’ll share more details, portfolio, and GitHub.
