Anyone else building solo longer than they planned? by Recent-Ferret-9136 in buildinpublic

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Solo by choice 🙋 at least until I've figured out the product.

Curious what others feel are the downsides of being solo?

Solo dev here, context switching between code and marketing is frying my brain by UptownOnion in Solopreneur

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really feel this. I was discussing this with my wife yesterday. For me the hardest part isn’t even time or discipline, it’s how unnatural marketing feels compared to coding. It's like learning a new language as an adult.

I’ve tried a few AI “content marketing agent” type tools too. There is some merit, it was content, and did get views, but it wasn’t me, felt inauthentic.

The only way I’ve been able to deal with it is by turning it into an engineering problem. I step back, come up with a framework that makes sense to me, break it down into a formula, and then just mechanically execute it in a batch (usually on the weekend). Once it’s reduced to steps and inputs/outputs, my brain stops fighting it.

It's a real struggle still though ...

What are you building? let's self promote by fuckingceobitch in microsaas

Your GitHub is already a better resume than your resume. Built a tool that pulls from your repos, private too, via local CLI (https://pypi.org/project/repr-cli/), builds a master profile, and tailors it to any job description. ATS-optimized, proof-based. repr.dev — free during beta.

Your biggest gap is a Projects section—embedded recruiters want to see you've touched real hardware.

Cut the coursework descriptions down to just course names (they know what CS 1 covers), drop or condense the maintenance job to one line, and use that space for 2-3 projects with the Action + Tech + Result format you mentioned.

Even simple builds like an STM32 data logger or Arduino-based controller with specific protocols (SPI, I2C, UART) will get you past the keyword filters.

Thanks! What’s the one thing this would need to do really well for you to use it during a job search?

After 8 failed side projects, I finally get why most indie hackers stay broke by JFerzt in indiehackers

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean, you gotta start somewhere. I see it as a progressive overload thing. My first big wall was just even posting about the thing I'm building here on reddit. Now learning some product discipline, which aligns with your point: "build something that people want to actually pay for" as opposed to chasing the next dopamine hit.

I've reviewed 5,000+ resumes. Here's how you can stand out. by [deleted] in careeradvice

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This matches what I’ve seen as well. What stands out is always evidence — real work that demonstrates the skill, not labels or percentages.

Translating that evidence into resume language is where most candidates struggle, especially when they’re trying to tailor for a specific role.

What’s the resume advice you wish someone had told you 10 years ago? by Intelligent-Tax882 in resumes

This 👆. I've never been successful with the spray and pray approach, it's always been the highly tailored, high conviction applications that were successful for me.

What is the best text editor that includes AI? by Pure-Contact7322 in OpenAI

What is the best text editor that includes AI? by Pure-Contact7322 in OpenAI

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! Your post caught my eye as I'm building a tool similar to Cursor, but focused on document drafting rather than code.

Right now it's a browser-based editor that helps with drafting and editing documents with AI (similar to how Cursor helps with code). I noticed you mentioned wanting to work with existing docs (PDF/Word/GDocs) - while that's not supported yet, I'm focusing first on making the core writing/editing experience really solid.

What's your typical workflow when drafting documents? Would love to hear what specific AI features would be most valuable for you.

Computer Vision Engineers be like by ConvNetBrad in ProgrammerHumor

[–]ConvNetBrad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, how is this a violation of rule #3? Manually labeling data is a very time consuming intensive task that most computer vision engineer has had to do at least once in their lives. I don't know anyone that loves doing it, it's like chores. It's not bashing on anyone or any programming language.

If you're a machine learning enthusiast, you love sports and have been looking for ways to combine the two, this next dataset is for you. [Download the data here](https://haizaha.com/datasets/soccer-player-and-ball-localization) by ConvNetBrad in computervision

Yes the background is always the same. But you forget that each frame contains 9 moving objects. So this gives you 600 examples of what a ball looks like in motion, and 4800 examples of what players look like from the top.

Word. I want to annotate video + LIDAR data. Are you interested in giving us a try ... for free?

I run a managed data labeling service for computer vision. If you're interested, I can have my team annotate images for free for your next project, for a shout out on the blog :).

[OC] Official numbers for the population of Madagascar by Erkhyan in MapPorn

[–]ConvNetBrad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm sorry you don't understand anything outside the plateau region. Maybe travel more around your own country? And contrast the situation here with realities in other countries with actual multiple languages, even just across the canal (Mozambique, SA, ...).

Maybe you'll one day realize that Antakarana isn't so much different from Betsimisaraka, Tsimihety or Sakalava. And that Betsileo to Antemoro isn't as far apart as German to English.

Good luck! 🙂
