Surviving as a Human in the Age of AI This is a submission for the 2026 WeCoded Challenge: Echoes of Experience There's a palpable feeling...

Jen Looper compares the academic humanities job market collapse of the 90s to the anxiety devs feel as AI takes over coding work. What's new is the opportunity to bring interdisciplinary perspective into an industry that needs it more than ever.

β€œWhy Are We Throwing Away Perfectly Good Tech?” I’ve been thinking more and more about e‑waste lately watching perfectly good electronics get tossed...

Inside most disposable vapes is a fully functional 3.7V lithium-ion cell β€” the same chemistry powering your phone. This dev is harvesting them for power banks, and wants to know: why aren't more devs talking about upcycling e-waste?

Drizby: An Open Source BI Platform Built on a Semantic Layer (and why I built it) I've spent 20 years trying to answer one question: how do you give users analytics on their own data without building an entire BI platform? Turns out, eventually you just build the platform.

After years of building and buying analytics tools, this dev built Drizby β€” an MIT-licensed, single-container BI platform built on a typed semantic layer. Define your metrics once, enforce them everywhere.

I've been building software for 40 years. But I want *you* to tell me about dev in 1986... It's 2026 and I started professional software development in 1986 when I took a Summer internship...

This dev started professional software development in 1986 at Tandy Computers β€” and wants *you* to guess what it was like. Tools, machines, storage, languages, how you turned in assignments. Submit your take and find out how close you got.

Integrating my AVR with Home Assistant I built a tiny Go CLI to control Zone 2 power over my AVR's WebSocket API and exposed it in Home Assistant as a native switch.

Built a tiny Go CLI that talks to an AVR over WebSocket, then wired it into Home Assistant as a command_line switch. The hard part wasn't sending commands β€” it was making state verification reliable enough for automations.

How to use Timberborn 🦫 (yes, the beaver city-building game) as a database πŸ’Ύ So, one of my favourite games lately, Timberborn, has released its 1.0 version and finally left early...

Timberborn added HTTP levers to its automation system β€” so this dev used ~1,000 of them as bits to encode JSON into binary, flip them via HTTP requests, and read the data back. The crazy thing? It works.

Nexus AI Agent

Nexus AI Agent

Multi-agent AI doesn't have an execution problem. It has a coordination problem. Each agent does its job. Nobody decides if the job should be done.

We built Nexus to be that layer.

"AI agents write code confidently, but they don't know *why* your code looks the way it does." This dev built DLD β€” an append-only decision log with decision annotations that gives agents the reasoning before they modify anything.

After an AI agent deleted 47 tickets, reassigned tasks to people who'd left the company, and marked critical bugs as "resolved" β€” this dev stopped believing the demos. A hard look at why agentic AI can still fail in production.
