Hey guys please build something cool and vibe as much as you can,

dont be a normal dev 😜

Drink as much coffee you need to vibe.

i hope we will see exited products talk to eachother early agree on idea early

Soooo, the Cursor Hackathon ended.

There were too many teams presenting 😭.

But some points to make: ideas are generally good, but they need market fit and should be implemented in a way that makes users actually want to use them.

Today, I saw a lot of people not caring about what would make users hesitant to use their product, just calling it an "MVP." If the MVP doesn’t make me want to use it, why would I wait for the full release?

So, these are some points I wanna share with the developers. I also saw an amazing idea that I really hope they continue and release to the public.

Anyways, until the next meetup, great meeting you people!

Thank you Theo 😜

Python 3.14 is here with some exciting updates for developers!

The biggest news for most of you is the improved performance for multi-threaded apps thanks to official support for free-threaded Python.

Plus, a new concurrent.interpreters module opens the door for true multi-core parallelism within a single process, offering a new way to write concurrent code that bypasses the GIL for better efficiency.

You'll also find smarter error messages to help you debug faster. Keep an eye out for these changes making your coding life a bit easier!

Test the JIT build of CPython by adding export PYTHON_JIT=1 as new environment variable.

This is honestly crazy cheap for that much amount of server

this is super awesome tool love it

Tikvah and Chapi Dev talk colab to host a freelancing in-person training.

Don't miss out the spot is soooo small apply fast

I dont Google I searched Dough_Nut️ in my chat to google(ask) inside the chat

Hey devs! 👨‍🎓👩‍🎓

If you want to fast-track your career and land a dream job right out of school, you need to go hardcore on the advanced stuff. Don't just follow the curriculum—go deep.
Here are some ambitious technical areas to focus on:

Deep Dive into Core Concepts

* Databases: Don't just learn SQL. Go deep into database internals, understand indexing strategies, and master advanced query optimization. Try to optimize a query on a huge, randomly-generated dataset to see the difference.

* Operating Systems: Learn about OS threads and asynchronous programming. Understand how they work at a low level and how to manage concurrency effectively.

* Language Internals: Dive into how your favorite programming language actually works. How does Python's interpreter execute code? How does JavaScript's single-threaded nature handle so many operations?

* Networking: Get to know tools like Nginx, Apache, and others. Understand how a web server processes requests, handles traffic, and serves content.
Build Ambitious Projects

* High-Volume Servers: Challenge yourself to build a local server that can handle a massive number of requests. Experiment with scaling and performance.

* VPS Exploration: Get your hands on a Virtual Private Server (VPS). Deploy your projects, learn how to configure domains and DNS records, and get comfortable in a real-world server environment.

* OAuth: Create your own OAuth implementation to understand how modern authentication and authorization work.

* Clone Projects You Admire: Find a project you love and try to recreate it from scratch. This is one of the best ways to learn the architecture of a complex system.

Do the most ambitious projects you can imagine. Document your entire journey—every success and every failure. Post your progress on X (Twitter), GitHub, or a personal blog.

I guarantee that if you dedicate yourself to this path, you will get the job you've always wanted, and the money will follow. Your hard work will speak for itself.

I had a really great time today with Tikvah Ethiopia! They organized an event about freelancing and we talked about so many things. It was a small group to start with, and I loved what we discussed.


A huge thank you to Dawit and Bereket for organizing this very minimalistic training. The discussion was fantastic!

Can anyone share with me a docker compose you got for production ready

- Grafana
- Prometheus
- Loki
- Tempo

R2 or S3 gonna be the storage
I don't want to set up the whole thing now.

But if not I am gonna create a reusable config honestly 😭😭😭
