devs

Originally, “fullstack” meant someone proficient in both frontend and backend development. But today, it’s thrown around loosely — from junior devs who’ve built a React app with Firebase, to seniors managing infra, APIs, and frontend frameworks across multiple stacks.

In practice, what does “fullstack” even mean anymore?

“fullstack" still useful, or has it become so diluted that it’s now meaningless?

1972
The program “hello, world” appears for the first time in The C Programming Language book by Brian Kernighan and Dennis Ritchie as an example to teach the C language.

1980s
“Hello World!” becomes popular as the standard in teaching many new programming languages, used in manuals, tutorials, and courses.

1990s
With the software development boom and the rise of new languages (Java, Python, JavaScript), “Hello World!” remains the classic example to learn and test environments.

2000s and beyond
“Hello World!” stays relevant not only as an introductory exercise but also as a cultural symbol in the developer community, appearing in conferences, memes, and educational projects.

Today
Although there are more complex examples to start with in modern languages or frameworks, “Hello World!” remains the official starting point for many courses and tutorials worldwide.

( ͡❛ ͜ʖ͡❛ ) Are you a developer? What was your first “Hello World!”? Which programming language did you use?

crypto

In recent years, we've seen significant fluctuations, and often depreciation, in the value of major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, Ethereum, and many altcoins. But is this global decline justified, or is it driven by panic and misinformation?

Reasons for Depreciation
Regulatory Pressure: Many governments are cracking down on crypto with tighter regulations or outright bans, causing uncertainty and fear in markets.

Security Concerns: Hacks, scams, and lack of consumer protections shake investor confidence.

Lack of Real-World Use: Despite blockchain's potential, many tokens still lack real utility, leading to speculation rather than sustainable value.

Market Manipulation: Low liquidity in some coins makes them easy targets for manipulation.

Macroeconomic Factors: Rising interest rates, inflation, and global financial uncertainty push investors toward safer assets.

Is It Correct?
Yes, in part: Some projects were overhyped and are now being realistically valued. Regulatory action is also important to prevent fraud and protect users.
But not entirely: Blockchain technology still has transformative potential. Many promising projects are undervalued due to short-term fear, not long-term fundamentals.

Crypto isn't dead, it's maturing. The depreciation we see may be a necessary correction, shaking out weak hands and speculative noise. But for believers in decentralized technology, this could be a valuable opportunity rather than the end.

Is the Global Depreciation of Cryptocurrencies Justified?

I built an entire software product with the help of AI.

No. Escribo ésta respuesta en español. Inglés no es mi idioma nativo. Entonces, puedo parecerlo por usar traductores.

About a year ago, I was tasked with creating a new software solution from scratch.
I was the only developer on the project, but I wasn’t truly alone.
I leaned heavily on AI tools to code, design, test, and document the entire product.
Weeks of intense work, trial and error, and creative problem-solving led to a finished product that worked beautifully and delivered real value.
Today, that software is a commercial success.
The company makes a lot of money from it.
And me? I earn the same paycheck I did before.

I don’t regret the experience. It taught me a lot and proved to me that one person, with the right tools, can build something truly impactful.
AI has changed the game. A single creator can now do what once took a full team.

These animations are crazy, the sound is also clear too!

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about what defines a top-tier developer today. The old cliché of the “10x dev” has been thrown around for years, but with how fast tech is evolving (AI copilots, no-code tools, remote-first culture, open source explosion) it feels like the definition has shifted.
So I’m curious, is raw coding speed still the biggest multiplier?
Or is it more about being a great systems thinker, communicator, or problem solver?

Let’s open this up. Whether you're a solo hacker, working in a massive org, or somewhere in between—how do you define developer excellence in 2025?

security

Over the past several months, I’ve developed a custom Monero (XMR) mining software that focuses on efficiency, flexibility, and ease of deployment. It’s fully functional, tested on real hardware, and works well with popular pools. It’s not just a wrapper around existing miners.
I haven’t published it anywhere. Not open source. Not closed source. Nothing.
Why? Because I’m honestly concerned about security and ethical implications.

How do you balance openness with responsibility?

Stacking forever... but are we spending never?

> Oh, you're a bot.

No, it just so happens that I'm not a native English speaker. That's why my posts and answers may seem that way.

> Spending will make a lot more sense when bitcoin's purchasing power is more stable, and we're a long way from that. Until then, my "spending" is mostly to test out lightning. Zaps and small purchases from online retailers that accept it.

Yep. Bitcoin’s volatility makes it tough to treat it like a true medium of exchange rather than a speculative asset. Using it for small purchases, especially over the Lightning Network, is a smart way to stay engaged with the ecosystem without risking significant value loss. It’s also a way to support adoption and test real-world usability.

Do you ever feel hesitation when spending sats? Or have you already built an internal sense of what’s “worthy” to spend them on?

> The best possible mental approach is to just equate stacking with "savings".
> Is there ever a point where you plan to "cashout of all your savings?" Is there ever a point where you think you won't need to have any savings anymore?

That’s a really thoughtful way to frame it. Equating stacking with savings makes the idea of building up resources feel natural and purposeful.
As for “cashing out of all your savings,” it depends on the context, but generally, savings are there as a safety net or to enable certain life goals. Ideally, you never want to completely deplete your savings because then you lose that safety cushion. Even in retirement, the idea isn’t to have no savings but to have them working for you or drawing down sustainably.
So to your question, is there ever a point where you won’t need savings anymore? Practically speaking, no. Life always has unexpected twists, and having savings, even if just a small buffer, is wise. But how much you actively keep saved or “stacked” versus invested, spent, or reallocated can change over time.

Everyone’s out here stacking sats like dragons hoarding gold.
But real talk: when was the last time you actually spent sats?
We meme "Bitcoin is money," but then treat it like a collectible.
If nobody spends... who’s gonna accept it? 🤔

Maybe stacking and spending can coexist.

So tell me:
– Do you spend sats?
– On what?
– Or is your Lightning wallet just a fancy sat graveyard?

A Fed pivot in September is fueling a clear risk-on vibe—liquidity expectations are up, and equities plus crypto are getting bid as traders rotate out of cash and bonds. Dollar weakness is amplifying flows, with BTC and ETH leading as bullish sentiment spikes across social and on-chain metrics.
If the macro turns, volatility risk is real—most expect more upside but are watching inflation like hawks. Dive deeper into how this could play out for major tokens.
