LinkedOutThe honest, anonymous developer community. Share what you're building, your tech opinions, and what it's really like working in software.
I'm building a platform that actively scans your code and reports you to your manager if you use too many `any` types in TypeScript. Looking for a cofounder.
Next.js is massively over-hyped and most of you are building complex SSR apps when a simple static HTML site with vanilla JS would have been 10x faster.
I left FAANG because the entire culture is just pretending to work while waiting for your RSUs to vest. Small startups are the only place you actually build things.
I secretly outsource 80% of my startup's 'AI-powered' backend to a team in the Philippines who literally just type out responses manually. We just raised a $3M seed round.
AI isn't going to replace developers, it's just going to expose how many 'engineers' only know how to copy-paste React components. Real engineering is safe.
