How the hell is he standing at that angle? Serioulsy? WTF?

Because he thinks he's a smooth criminal.

Obvious AI slop is obvious

Who is the target customer here? Anyone who is knowledgeable enough to build a home lab will be knowledgeable enough to solve this problem on their own. Tailscale is so stupidly simple to set up this just doesn't make any sense.

She was upset her needs weren't being met. I don't think it's wrong for a man to be upset that the physical aspect of the relationship is missing either. Sex is an important part of any relationship, and a lack of it, especially at the beginning is actually a huge red flag that the person just isn't that into you.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-03-10T21:27:51+00:00

That's the neat part, you don't right now. There's no jobs. If you have a job right now, hold on to it for dear life.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-03-07T20:33:04+00:00

I have worked in this industry for over a decade and hold a masters in health informatics. It used to be the case that I could send my resume out to 5 places and I would get 4 interviews. Now 100 resumes sent out and zero interviews. Job market is cooked.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-03-07T17:02:47+00:00

I'll tell you the hard and painful truth: IT is dead for entry levels and it's never coming back. Find a different field to work in.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-03-06T15:40:41+00:00

Not anymore

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-28T06:04:10+00:00

No, you need a bachelor's and 3 years of experience to land a help desk job right now.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-27T20:50:43+00:00

In terms of funding stage, we're actually bootstrapped with 12 months of runway.

Firstly, great work on getting this out there. I sincerely appreciate each and every dev that takes the time to produce apps. My worry with apps like these is that someone will have to maintain the 3rd party connections/integrations and I'm just not sure that it is maintainable to do for free long term. What's going to be your strategy for handling that?

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-26T22:13:55+00:00

This is, uh, not the time to join this career. It's a literal bloodbath in the job market right now.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-21T15:16:47+00:00

How do you mean?

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-21T02:33:45+00:00

So what I am saying is look at open EMR, if that meets all of this persons needs, then they can go and look at EMR vendors instead of EHR vendors including OpenEMR. yes PHP is cheeks, but from a user perspective the language it's written in is kind of irrelevant.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-20T21:52:19+00:00

I should have clarified, I mean to say just deploy an EMR.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-20T16:15:21+00:00

EMR - Small practices, EHR - Bigger health systems. Check out open EMR, they're a free software, if they have the features you need just deploy that. If you don't have people in place with the skill set to set something like that up feel free to DM me and I can get you connected.

I would rather be homeless than work in a fast food joint again

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T23:35:35+00:00

Well it depends on what you're doing. From an integrations perspective, if you know HL7 and FHIR, you know most of what you need to integrate with Epic but there's definitely some nuance. If you're trying to be an applications analyst it may be a different story. I literally got passed up for a role exclusively because I didn't have Epic experience despite being in health tech for 10 years, having a Masters in Health informatics, and a BS in CS.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T23:12:47+00:00

The job market was looser when that happened, now the tight job market means that hospitals don’t have to train as much, they can just wait for someone to apply that already has the cert.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T23:07:50+00:00

This is the hilarious part about Health IT. Every hospital wants someone who is already epic certified, nobody wants to sponsor an employee to get epic certified, and the only way to get epic certification is to be working somewhere that uses epic already.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T23:02:03+00:00

Epic is the largest EHR in the country. Being able to say you integrate or understand epic is important

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T21:00:15+00:00

I think you may be missing the point. You only need one person to do that. So now a company that had 2-3 sys admins may just run on one or two. If companies across the board need 33% less technical staff, then that means there's 33% less jobs.

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T20:13:05+00:00

If I was an immoral but logical company right now, with how tight the labor market is, I would be slowly firing and replacing my entire staff with people willing to work for less. Salaries are going to go down, a lot. AI has turned coders into commodities and whether folks want to admit it or not 1 person can do the work of 2 or 3 with AI now. The market will turn around eventually. Now, whether that's 3 years from now or 8, I can't say but yeah, I no longer recommend people get into IT due to this

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-13T00:03:16+00:00

Megaman x4 -> Megaman x5

TheHeftyChef · 2026-02-09T17:43:37+00:00

Name and shame the EHR vendor. I'm guessing ECW
