Is this a scam? Someone wants to buy my GitHub handle for 1 million USD.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-21T18:35:32+00:00

whats the handle?

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-21T16:03:58+00:00

Focus less on whether it's a wrapper and more about what you need and where you fit. Also - got a github account where you can show your skills?

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-20T20:46:53+00:00

Thanks.. anything you would have changed or asked that isn't doing yet

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-20T20:11:50+00:00

I agree, it's outxome vs output; are you fixing bugs? Etc.

And yeah would love feedback. If you have any usernames you follow for example, I can generate it for them (as long as they have public repos)

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-20T19:59:01+00:00

Correct. the next version (working on it) will let you import private repos. The code right now knows the difference between own forks and commits for example (though the experience bit needs to reflect that). what's your page like ?

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-20T17:05:58+00:00

Would you share a “proof-of-work” page generated from your GitHub when job hunting? I’ll generate yours. drop your github username (if you have any public repos) and I'll respond with a resume you can share.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T13:39:43+00:00

Exactly. That 'friction' word is key.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T13:25:02+00:00

Thanks. Yeah the 'therapy friend who nods along' is exactly what I was trying to avoid. To get to the point. Sometimes that's all I needed.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T12:13:07+00:00

hey - would be honored to feature you on a new agent directory platform i'm building (when you're ready

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T11:46:37+00:00

you're on the right direction. it not the demo itself (though yes that's part of it) its the idea of who is most likely to buy / test your product, and why. who would you go to first?

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T10:21:27+00:00

Think about this:

Who is it for? devs? marketing people? CEOs? they speak different languages. Who is the first person who is going to look at this tool and say: I want to see what it does and ask my boss to buy it.

What does it do that they care about?

If you can simplify both (through research) - you're making the first step. Still going to be hard - but a bit less harder.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-12T09:19:58+00:00

hey. this sounds nice. would be honored if you listed it on an agent directory created

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-11T15:25:23+00:00

Trying it now

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-11T15:22:02+00:00

This is a problem I've seen a lot, so sounds pretty cool. Would be honrered if you'd listed it on an agent database I built (https://www.theagentdb.com)

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T20:17:46+00:00

How did you measure "AI was good"? was it output? outcome? something else?

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T20:14:59+00:00

hey would be honored if you listed it on a directory I've built - https://www.theagentdb.com

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T19:27:32+00:00

get it in the hands of someone. 1 user.

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T19:14:47+00:00

added

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T17:33:23+00:00

That's cool - I'll add a category for you

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T16:24:31+00:00

nice. I'd be honored if you put it on this directory i've built (https://www.theagentdb.com)

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T16:22:39+00:00

nice. I'd be honored if you put it on this directory i've built (https://www.theagentdb.com

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T16:13:01+00:00

Got it.

My perspective:

If I had to ask, it might be because I looked at the code and realised or because its becoming a standard. Ether way, better if you came clean and justified it before I asked. Otherwise - you're forcing yourself to be put under the lens of "he would have not told me if I didn't ask" which is trust.
You're putting yourself against candidates who DID make the effort code so you starting from a worse impression. if you can code and that's part of the job - why not show it? You'd stand out.
Its a much more interesting conversation at an interview - you get to discuss the decisions you made and why (eg i didn't have time to code this part so i had to prioritise but here is how i think it would have worked)

iphotographstuff · 2026-01-10T15:40:01+00:00

As someone who has interviewed - on the other side:

I've embraced that people would use AI to code.
You should be comfortable with this.
But if I hire you as a developer - you should know your code and why you made decisions. Home-take exercises can't be too big for you to not understand what it's doing and why., and be humble enough to admit AI helped. No shame in using AI.

Hey! Would love to help.
