Software engineer building

Built the open-room landing page. Be honest, watching this for 5 seconds, do you actually know what it does?

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@JohanesSuryaK It’s tough tbh - it makes me want to go on a side quest to build another tool that makes it easier😂

How does everyone maintain a balance between building and posting?

Posting a minimum of 3 times and engaging with others takes a lot of time away from building.

How do you stay active on here without letting the build stall?

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@Codex_Nerd I agree. When there is less building to do, maintaining a posting schedule is so much easier. But posting and engaging consistently while building out a feature feels near impossible. It makes me wonder if it’s best to have a stable product before diving in to posting about it

@nalinrajput23 My guy please. I can’t even run a docker container without my pc dying

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@Codex_Nerd I agree! I’ve talked to a lot of engineering managers who miss being in the code. Delegating work is becoming less of a choice - if you don’t use AI tools you fall behind

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

The traditional developer is dead.

With AI writing the raw syntax, engineering is starting to look a lot more like management.

Congratulations, you've been promoted to engineering manager.

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@Codex_Nerd LOL I don’t think it’s cringe. I personally think its interesting and a fun topic to talk about

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@Codex_Nerd @WhiskyToad Yooooo connect me plssss 🙏

[Lincoln Laylor @lincolnlaylor]

@moonfarm_dev @WhiskyToad I agree! Cloudflare has great prices. I’ve also started using the Cloudflare tunnel instead of ngrok and it’s absolutely amazing

I caught myself spending more time trying to connect with new people than interacting with the content of people I already connected with.

I will scroll past posts from people I deliberately followed just to chase new followers. A feed of silent accounts does nothing when the connections who interact with each other are where the real value is.

Do you spend more time chasing new connections, or engaging with people you already follow?

@buildwithsid I had to pick up Sudoku just to convince myself i still got it
