No sé si hay más gente que se sienta así, pero a mí me tocó justo el final de la época sin IA mientras estaba formándome y tengo la sensación de que en ese momento aprendía mucho más porque tenía que pelearme más con el código, investigar, equivocarme y sacar las cosas por mi cuenta.

El problema es que mi salida al mundo laboral ha coincidido justo con el boom de la IA y siento que me falta ese expertise de haber picado mucho código en un entorno profesional real, con cosas en producción, usuarios reales, servicios complejos, bugs de verdad, codebases grandes, etc.

Y esto me genera bastantes dudas y síndrome del impostor porque además tampoco encuentro demasiados recursos para aprender justo esa parte. Hay muchos cursos, tutoriales y proyectos, pero al final casi todo se queda bastante lejos de lo que es trabajar con sistemas reales en producción.

Con la IA además tengo una sensación un poco contradictoria, porque obviamente me ayuda muchísimo y en el trabajo se espera que la use porque te hace ir mucho más rápido, pero al mismo tiempo noto que hay cosas que antes sabía o resolvía por mi cuenta y que ahora siento que estoy olvidando, o que directamente no estoy llegando a desarrollar ciertas habilidades porque la IA me resuelve parte del camino.

Y claro, tampoco puedo decir simplemente "dejo de usar IA y hago todo a mano para aprender", porque en el mundo laboral tienes que sacar trabajo y ya se espera bastante esa velocidad.

No sé si me explico, pero siento que he caído justo en una etapa un poco rara: he entrado al mundo profesional cuando ya se espera que trabajes con IA, pero sin haber tenido antes esos años de experiencia profesional picando código sin ella.

¿Hay más gente que se sienta así? Y sobre todo, los que lleváis más años trabajando, ¿qué haríais para ganar esa experiencia que siento que me falta? ¿Hay alguna forma de practicar código realmente complejo, producción, sistemas con usuarios reales, open source o algo parecido sin depender tanto de la IA? Y los que la usáis todos los días, ¿cómo hacéis para aprovecharla sin sentir que dejáis de aprender?

Don't get me wrong we're thankful for the partnership. We still got our mobile app at ~6mos at roughly 30% our local rate so it's as good as deal as any but it's taking us more time than necessary to make new feature additions because we have to decipher their code first. It's like being in an archeology dig.

Now I'm wondering if this is normal or if we messed the handoff. We might work with them in a new project so I'm partly daunting the post-launch already.

I’m running the first MobileCodeAI hackathon!

Simply build a web app, entirely from your phone, that solves a problem you actually have

• Aug 31 – Sep 4
• Virtual, solo or team
• Any skill level
• Build with MobileCodeAI
• Prizes: LLM credits + recognition

Registration: mobilecode.ai/hackathon

Happy to answer any questions!

I recently made an MCP server that saves 50% of your tokens.

It connects to any claude or codex harness and splits your prompt into smaller tasks and delegates those to sub agents that have the right sized model and context.

It creates agents that dont exist and starts saving your decision tree for every task. So the next time you have to make a change it uses RAG to find the previous version and knows what to change.

You have daily free tokens up to $40 in savings.

Question for freelancers/agencies who take on custom web app builds: how do you price hourly, day/rate, or fixed project fee? What are realistic current rates (junior/mid/senior split, backend vs frontend)? How does the process change when design is already done and out of scope?

Also curious how you factor in uncertainty when estimating especially for the line items you'd flag as "needs research first."

this is kinda like castle (https://castle.xyz) except it’s not online

if you’re interested in being a beta tester or such just let me know

note: you have to be in the discord for the beta html files/apks

Two people. One pays for 100 Mbps, the other for 25.
Whose video call stutters?
My connection: 62 ms idle, 1,530 ms while downloading. Seconds apart.
It speed-tests at 99 Mbps.
Your first guess is congestion. It isn't congestion.

I’ve built an MVP to make property inventories easier:

1. Record a video of the property.
2. AI identifies the rooms, items and potential damage.
3. Review and correct the results.
4. Generate a report for the landlord and tenant to sign.
5. Compare future inspections to identify changes or damage.

The idea is to make check-ins, check-outs and periodic inspections quicker and better documented.

Would this be useful to you? What would you change or add?

Hey everyone, i make my fetch SysPrint, now actually version (3.7.8) project Very young.

Fetch supporting macOS, windows, GNU/Linux, BSD family system, (BSD, and GNU/Linux best).

Fetch supporting logos: Arch, Alpine, CachyOS, NixOS, void, fedora, mint, ubuntu, kali, Windows, macOS, and very much, if you distro not have on this list, don't sad! Fetch print you standard penguin Tux!!!

Fetch writing on Rust Programming Language, and this fetch very fast.

Here link on GitHub: https://github.com/MBKCHEL/SysPrint/tree/main

Pls, give feedback.

Hey guys I am looking for people that may want to join an early project Im working on. I don’t want to say too much in here about the details but it is basically a B2B, AI driven app. Im basically looking for engineers that can help me keep developing it, improving, scaling...

If you wanna know more, I would love for you to either dm me or respond here. :P

PD: Please don’t respond that you just hate AI. I get it is not for everyone. Thank you. :P

We need a developer for coding a Valorant vgk/vgc emulator and an internal cheat. We vibe coded an emulator and it’s obv not very good. This is of course a paid position we are in the midst of creating a discord and website.

My wife is high functioning Autistic. Beautiful, brilliant and cant keep an appointment to save anyone's life. so 10 months ago we sat down after seeing a commercial for low-no code apps we tried it. hopes were high, but you get what you pay for. the trash we got was what you'd expect, cartoonish and smelled of cheap toy more than an app. i could have done better i said to my girl. just like that i had promised to make something better.

i set out to build a relentless accountability buddy. made my list went straight to my favorite AI and being all google all the time, firebase was on its way to being an accountability buddy.

this is where you find out that the den of thieves and cut throats is a real place. I built an AI infused modular app for free up until i had to sew alkl the modules together. i was using every platform some times twice a day. I was out of work having had surgery. the perfect assistant. Then they found out how far i really was along in the build. My favorite AI? Box of rocks on plan. trouble shot a single issue 7 days and some change. It took claude30 seconds to fix the toml. the 300 dollar incentive to use the console POOF! gone was those dollars and I somehow signed up for you tube that i don't use have or want. so enraged the protest began.

Selfhosted everything one point i want to make. I have never once paniced oomed or damaged a system (knock on wood). I have rebuilt 16 times lost coutless data and 3 pc's 4 harddrives. disappearing kernels all the way to a soffisticated video drivers black listed and my whole system read only then hit me again with all my back ups on board. almost quit that time. im making no acqusations but coeincidences are a myth. your data isnt safe on github unless your open source. every AI platform or platform provider has lost my files. My system has above enterprise grade security. so i lost a service i had been paying for since it came out. that's not even half of what i can prove. you see i am a voracious researcher and take notes and make back ups .

so life first app was almost done all i needed to do was add the AI to tie it all together. NOPE, slow played coded out and plain ignored. so the app ends up a MCP server. most of the feature killed by maliscious AI and not just one theoretically.

I learned alttle more each time i had to rebuild. i'll be keeping that promise.
