I've reviewed over 10,000 resumes hiring at startups and large companies. Recently I've partnered with some recruiters at MANGA+ companies and started PineappleResume, a free interview guide & paid resume review service - But I'm doing it on Lemmy for free!

How to get a Free Review:

• Share a link to your resume below (info redacted or not)
• If there aren't too many posts, I'll get to it and give a review

Note if you're not targeting a general Software Development position, include what role you're going after and optionally the JD.

What services can be used to automate this?

To create a bot that posts popular videos from your YouTube subscriptions to the right Lemmy community, you can use the YouTube Data API and the Lemmy API. First, you'll need to create a script that fetches videos from your YouTube subscriptions using the YouTube Data API. You can filter the videos based on their popularity (e.g., view count) and use a summarization API similar to YoutubeDigest to generate a summary of the video. Next you have to ask a LLM for the appropriate Lemmy community for the post.

Next, you can use the Lemmy API to interact with Lemmy communities. Once you've found the appropriate community, you can use the Lemmy API to create a post with the title, URL, and summary in a quote block.

Here's a high-level overview of the steps:

1. Fetch videos from YouTube subscriptions using the YouTube Data API.
2. Filter videos based on their popularity.
3. Generate a summary of the video using a summarization API.
4. Search for the right Lemmy community using the Lemmy API.
5. Create a post in the Lemmy community with the title, URL, and summary in a quote block.

Keep in mind that you'll need to handle API keys, authentication, and rate limits for both the YouTube Data API and the Lemmy API.

There is a request for a comment on this issue Controversial posts and comments #2515. Do you have any ideas on how best to implement this?

I'd like to see some more people chime in with opinions, but maybe that'll come with a PR. At the very least, it's something that can be moved forward with.

This is for people who want to understand how programs get loaded under linux. In particular it talks about dynamically loaded x86 ELF files. The information you learn will let you understand how to debug problems that occur in your program before main starts up. Everything I tell you is true, but some things will be glossed over since they don't take us toward our goal. Further, if you link statically, some of the details will be different. I won't cover that at all. By the time you're done with this though, you'll know enough to figure that out for yourself if you need to.

I have this one .hpp file in a c++ project that's complicated. Too complicated. For this ONE fucking file, VS Code has decided to underline a bunch of random stuff in red and it refuses to show me autocomplete data. It doesn't show me member functions or variables and it doesn't show me functions that match what I've typed so far BUT ONLY IN THIS ONE FILE. The only reason I'm using VS Code at all is because this project is so mind-bogglingly complicated i simply can't remember everything and switching back and fourth between tabs, windows and monitors wastes so much time when you have to do it constantly.

VS Code always does this but you can usually get rid of the problem by closing it and opening it again. No such luck here. Having to do any work in this file without those autocomplete features is going to be such a drag. I actually tried moving the content of this stubborn hpp file to the h file but somehow VS Code is smart enough to troll me by underlining all the same stuff in red and not showing autocomplete data for the 1 block i copied in. How does it even know to troll me like this?

Other than switching to Windows 11 and using visual studio (like ms wants us to), what can I even do?

Also, there's nothing wrong with the code itself. g++ happily compiles and runs it and the relevant parts of the program work as expected.

Edit: hmm I changed the define keyword a little and its working for now although I wouldn't be surprised if that's not the case tomorrow. VS Code is good when it works but when it's being unreliable its just a glorified Windows XP notepad.exe with a dark theme.

It was recommended to me on YT and I found it super to be a super interesting presentation. Not just about this specific case but generally approaches to improve perf.

Hi folks!

I am a new convert coming over from Reddit. I want to build out a Lemmy React Native client. Woo!

I'm very familiar with frontend dev and react (been doing so for a solid chunk of my career), however I am quite new to the Fediverse and not entirely sure how to build federated applications.

I see the lemmy-js-client which will likely help me tremendously, but it's not terribly documented.

Anyone else out there hacking on a TypeScript/React based Lemmy client and willing to share notes? :)

I have a fundamental knowledge of C and I am wanting to get better at understanding C. here is an example of what I'm looking for. I write random programs to try and challenge my self with help from the man pages, for example i'm trying to create my own Linux shell right now, but I feel as i'm just using functions and not understanding what's happening when I use them, the article that I linked helped me understand what was going on with scanf and fgets more, and I'm looking for similar articles.

In an era where developers are increasingly expected to handle operations tasks, this InfoWorld article discusses the growing discontent among developers and operations specialists. The 'You build it, you run it' model has led to overwhelming responsibilities and created bottlenecks due to different skill sets. The article suggests that a shift in responsibilities could be the solution, where developers have more control over development and testing environments without being fully responsible for production. It also discusses the rise of Site Reliability Engineering (SRE) as a popular solution to balance developer velocity and operational stability. Interested to hear your thoughts on this topic!

I am often wondering if large webservices can run on old-school monolithic relational databases. It would be great because being able to simply model your applications data model as a set of SQL tables with strong constraints about data types and relations has huge benefits. But a single computer can only have that many cores and that much memory, so how far do modern monolithic database systems actually scale? And is Postgres going to be enough for Lemmy?

I stumbled upon the linked article on twitter. And it seems impressive. They are running their two billion dollar IT business on one single managed postgres instance. They started to migrate away from that when they hit the two billion mark in 2020. But instead of choosing a NoSQL system, they chose to stick with Postgres. They split groups of tables into different database instances.

Given that a two billion dollar company can run on a single Postgres instance like that, I have high hopes that no Lemmy instance will ever hit a limit with that.

At the moment it seems though that some parts of lemmy use Postgres in an inefficient way, so there may be some engineering necessary. But in the end I am positive that even an instance with 100k users should be able to run lemmy as it is, with a single postgres instance.
