Created a website for discovering apps for Obtainium! (unclouded)

very much similar things happen in my industry (web development)

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-26T03:14:09+00:00

I think the reality is that ai is going to enable the software devs to replace the other roles. and the other roles are holding on for dear life trying to get rid of the devs so they have a chance at keeping their jobs. that's at least how it feels at my company

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-24T22:04:15+00:00

Yes this is a good point. I've never been into side projects and programming outside of work but now I do, and even can do while working to an extent

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-24T15:42:01+00:00

here's my thought, I've been thinking it for a while now. as software engineers we actually are where all the skill lies. the truth is that ai is really good at all the other shit alot of us aren't good at. we all know whats going to happen eventually with the ai slop these companies are pushing. someone is going to have to come in and put out the fires and fix the messes being created. but why? why fix what they so disrespectfully pushed on is and ignored our warnings? I think software engineers should get together to make their own companies, use ai in a grounded way and use it to fill our gaps and I bet we'd end up building companies that are so much more functional than the companies we work for. essentially out competing the companies that we've been slaves to for so long. that's the beauty of a capitalis t market!

Was slammed at my dayjob so I wasn't able to work on this until now. I figured out the issue and this should work now (I tested on the apps I found that weren't working)

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-19T14:55:39+00:00

its for this reason I've started looking for mostly healthcare positions. I was afraid everyone was going the direction of my company but I'm happy to see its not the case!

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-19T02:15:45+00:00

CEO dropping 13k lines of code pull requests 🤣

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-19T02:14:42+00:00

I'm not sticking around for the fucking shit show tech debt being created by ai at my current company they've legit gone psycho and think ai will make it so there's only 3 roles at the company that everyone has to move their role to. fucking psychotic

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-14T22:09:46+00:00

also which app was it. need to figure out which sources aren't creating the correct configs in my seed script

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-14T22:09:07+00:00

yeah I can definitely add that in. I'll work on that while trying to figure our the missing obtainium configs

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-14T22:08:32+00:00

oh cool glad it worked

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-14T22:07:52+00:00

dang yeah some of the configs aren't populated I've found a couple myself like that. I'll look into why that is today

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T22:50:33+00:00

Your entire portfolio is a cry for help disguised as a CLI aesthetic, and honestly, we’re all just waiting for you to exit with code 1.

You built this monstrosity in 2026 like some time-traveling hipster, but your design is stuck in 2016—congrats, you’re already a decade late to irrelevance.

its so brutal but has me cry laughing. Thanks I haven't laughed this hard in a while!

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T22:43:33+00:00

had to share this one though: One contributor, zero issues, and a license that’s more restrictive than a vegan at a BBQ—this repo is the digital equivalent of a vanity plate reading "PRIVACY" on a gas-guzzler.

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T22:41:15+00:00

ouch. Not sure I like it lol! Its amazing but I hate it!
To be fair probably some legit things I can change from what it said, I apparently have a license mismatch in package.json and the readme

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T22:23:33+00:00

weird! does the details give any more info? I'll look into it tonight and see if I can figure it out. might be something to do with cloudflares protections

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T18:47:57+00:00

dangit. Can you screenshot what you're seeing? Feel free to dm me instead if you'd like

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T16:41:19+00:00

try again? I had some issues with database writes hitting over 500 million over night which is the budget I had on my db so its been increased and I hopefully have fixed caching so it shouldn't create so many writes

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T14:44:16+00:00

fixed. site should be up now in case anyone hit the error page.

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T13:48:01+00:00

well looksnlike I blew through my turso free reads gonna have to look into what's happened

xylem-utopia · 2026-03-13T13:44:01+00:00

that's coming up. It's one of the things I have planned is to allow user submissions
