Just joined AlgoCamp’s AI Engineering Bootcamp to learn AI in a more structured, practical way.
I’m excited to build, experiment, and share the things that make me go, “Ah, so that’s how it works.”
If you’re a developer, founder, or AI enthusiast in the UK, let’s connect!
Before you ping a peer, senior, or open a thread asking for help, put a reasonable amount of effort in first to solve the problem.
Not asking you to bang your head against something, but make a reasonable attempt - read the error message fully, check the docs, search the codebase, try one or two hypotheses, or better - ask Claude (at least).
This matters more than it sounds.
When you come to someone having already done that groundwork, the conversation is completely different. You are not asking them to do the thinking for you. You are asking them to help you get unstuck. That is a much more productive use of everyone's time, including yours.
It also builds something that will help you throughout your life (not just your career) - the muscle of debugging independently. Tbh, this is something I feel was, is, and will always be super crucial. Each time you try to solve it on your own before escalating, you get a little better at it. Over time, you stop needing to 'escalate' as often.
Again, there is no shame in asking for help. Asking is good. But the quality of the ask matters. "I tried X, then Y, I think the issue is Z, but I am not sure" is a completely different conversation than "it is broken, can you look?"
Hope this helps.
Devs / engineers / tech folks in the UK 🇬🇧 — I’m trying to grow in tech and also build an actual friend circle here. I’m learning, building projects, job-hunting, and would love people to chat with or meet on weekends. If you’re up for it, reply or DM. Let’s grow together😊
Hello devs, I want to buy a domain for my personal portfolio website. Currently it's hosted on vercel. What would be the best domain registrar to go for? I don't want my domain to be stolen.
@brandnamenow Yes I want to go ahead with something like this but what platform will be a good choice to buy the domain from? Will it be GoDaddy or name cheap or cloud flare or something else. Cause I have seen reviews that domain might be stolen or we might be ddsod etc
