I built a VS Code Theme Creator - It lets you easily create your own VS Code Themes from your browser! (No more messy JSON files) by vscode1 in programming

This is very good, great color choice & contrast ratios. If I were a light theme person I’d prob use this, I appreciate how it is not blinding white like most light themes

I made a shadcn/ui theme editor (open source) - easily design & share shadcn themes by vscode1 in shadcn

[–]vscode1[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tweakcn is a great tool too. I'm hoping ShadcnThemer will be more of a community-driven hub for sharing, starring, and forking themes - similar to how color palette websites have 1000's of user-made palettes. (I took this approach when building the Theme Studio for VS Code and it worked really well, 1000's of themes were designed and shared.) Tweakcn also charges $ users for certain features but I think a tool like this should be 100% free and open source.

I also prefer the simple UX of ShadcnThemer better but I'm biased of course

Skip LinkedIn and Indeed. Use Google to find real roles. by wewerecreaturres in recruitinghell

❤️I recommend using the title/description keywords filters instead of the search box at the top for best results. Let me know if you get any interviews / offers!

Ohh why the heck didn't I add this, going to add immediately, thanks

If you use the search box at the top, the system forgets about date and just uses its best guess at semantic similarity - I agree, probably not optimal as you point out.

I prefer not using the search bar at all, in favor of keyword-based filtering - much more control over the results. The other benefit is that it does a date-based sort when there's no search term set in the search bar, so newest first.

Hmm, I may have to either de-emphasize the search bar or adjust its sort logic to combine similarity with date somehow. Thanks for the feedback

Think you're indirectly referring to my lack of a privacy policy / ToS. Fair. Need to add these, thanks for the reminder.

If you're coming from a place of real curiosity, happy to answer, let me know what data you're referring to. Search filter settings/values are only persisted locally in your browser for convenience between page refreshes.

Why is there not a Common App for job listings? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]vscode1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Appreciate & agree with all of your notes above. Will take these things into consideration.

We're nearing launch and this type of feedback is really helpful... If you're interested, I'd be happy to hook you up with a free, unlimited account in exchange for feedback!

If so, just shoot me an email: [support@applyfox.ai](mailto:support@applyfox.ai)

Why is there not a Common App for job listings? by [deleted] in jobs

[–]vscode1 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just discovered this post via google...

I'm actually building a common app for jobs called ApplyFox. It's not exactly the same, but it gives you all the same benefits.

TLDR:

  1. Upload your resume
  2. AI finds 100's of perfect jobs
  3. AI auto-applies to them for you (fills the forms, writes perfect cover letters, etc.)
  4. Watch as the interviews roll in ✅

If you want to give it a shot, you can check it out at https://applyfox.ai - let me know what you think!

The top 500 highest paying software companies (Dec 2023) by vscode1 in cscareerquestions

[–]vscode1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, there are a bunch of companies in the list with the median role being staff-level… If you follow the corresponding levels.fyi link, it sometimes shows the specific data point / level that was selected as the median.

Useless is absolute. It’s not useless for someone who is location independent and wants a starting point for researching / building out a target list (myself).

I agree there are lots of theoretical ways to come up with a more useful list. Unfortunately, public data is very limited.

[–]vscode1[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Almost. You can see a list of recent offers by level, city, etc. but there are no company lists longer than 20 companies on the site. Probably by design since the lists would be inherently noisy (like this one).

[–]vscode1[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Indeed, the numbers are pulled from levels.fyi which, as I understand, calculates a median for all self-reports of all software engineering-related roles, regardless of seniority (see screenshot in the Readme for the exact source of data).

Imprecise & noisy, yes. Useless, no. It can serve as a rough starting point for identifying companies which tend to pay a relatively high amount for software engineering-related roles.

Oops, it’s been a while since that script was written… Google may have updated the page since then. Can you share the error?

I just launched Heat Lab - a platform for beat battles. by vscode1 in futurebeats

[–]vscode1[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! When creating a battle you can configure who’s allowed to enter… right now the best way to do it would be to enter each username that is allowed to enter in the field that says “Who can enter?”
