is anyone else seeing a shift where junior positions are being replaced by automated workflows and mid-level specialists? it feels like the path to becoming an expert is getting much harder to navigate.

found this piece with whitney hess about how some interview questions are secretly deep . >'why do you want to switch jobs?' is never just a practical question, it's a test of your long-term vision and how well you know your own worth. does anyone else feel like they're constantly being interrogated during casual coffee chats?

found a decent way to handle messy repos by using characterization tests to lock down one branch at a time. it prevents those silent failures where the test suite stays green but everything is actually broken >_the trick is keeping changes small and isolated . anyone else use branch-level refactoring or do you just wing it?

the app layout changed because they basically turned it into an agent platform via something called chatgpt work. think of it as a much more user-friendly version of codex that handles all the heavy lifting for you. you don't even need to touch the terminal or learn git to get things moving. it uses that same agentic tech but hides the scary stuff like terminal commands behind a simpler interface. i wonder if this means we can finally stop worrying about complex workflows and just focus on the output. has anyone actually tried running a full project through it yet?

it feels like companies are erasing the very concept of a starting position by only hiring for senior expertise. were basically killing future leaders b4 they even get a chance to prove themselves ⚠

stop sending out generic resumes to every single listing you see. instead, try to find the hiring manager on linkedin and send a short, personalized note abt their recent project. it works much better than the black hole of application portals ✅

most people only look at active listings on major job boards. if you want to find roles that haven't been officially posted yet, try using specific search operators in your browser. instead of searching for a company name, use a command like site:linkedin. com/jobs "hiring" "remote" to pull direct posts from recruiters. you can also target smaller company career pages by searching for certain keywords alongside their domain.
the strategy
searching for recent updates on individual company sites often reveals roles that are in the internal pipeline but not yet widely advertised. another trick is to look for old job descriptions that were recently taken down because they might indicate a new headcount is opening up soon. you should also monitor social media profiles of department heads rather than just the main brand account. it takes more effort than clicking apply on a single site, but it helps you avoid the massive pile of applicants. focus on finding the original source of the vacancy to gain an edge.

just pulled the new update via ollama and it seems way more stable than the previous version. you can grab the 12b version with ollama pull Natuworkguy/flash-onyx-2.2:12b if you are running standard hardware. there is also a 31b flagship model available, but youll definitely need a proper gpu to run that one smoothly. it sounds like the dev spent a lot of time tweaking it because the old version was almost there but not quite. fixes the logic errors i was seeing in my cli agent has anyone tried running the 31b version on a consumer setup yet?
