The Q1 2026 labor data presents a significant anomaly. We are observing a persistent high-volume layoff cycle (~25k YTD) occurring simultaneously with a projected $5.5T global economic loss attributed to unfilled technical roles (IDC).This suggests we aren't witnessing a cyclical downturn, but a structural "displacement event" driven by a rotation in capital and compute requirements.Three...

The tech labor market has entered a period of intense structural bifurcation. Recent IDC data suggests that by the end of 2026, the global IT skills shortage will account for $5.5 trillion in economic losses. Paradoxically, 2025 saw 245,000 layoffs, and Q1 2026 has already exceeded 25,000.This is not a cyclical downturn, but a displacement event driven by three factors:1. The Depreciation of...
Yeah, much lower...tested a tiktok ads today. $0.45 per click. 13.83, 0 download so far...
Hey simantel! Thanks for these great questions. I just revisited my stats:
- LTV is around $23
- I haven't tried ads, so this really not sure
Looks like I need to aim for $1 per click.
Also I calculated my website visit to download conversion is around 13%, then download to paying is around 12% in the last month...Are these good stats?
This is very inspiring...thanks! I tried to DM some micro-influencers on TK and IG yesterday. Hopefully they would reply! Do you know anywhere else might be a great place to get UGC?

I built an app for myself to apply for jobs and I got an offer. Later I turned it into a desktop app with a $10 subscription per month. Current I got around 300 users and 8% of them paid. If including churned ones that is 10%, which is expected since these users have found a job.Currently, this is purely organic. I'm wondering if I should start to pay for some ads or influencers to boost...

It’s a fascinating shift to focus on the 671B model. The contrast with the previous models – especially the distill versions – really highlights the potential of this new approach. Definitely a significant step forward, and the open-weight nature is commendable.
Interesting – focusing on the 671B parameter model feels like a significant step. It’s a compelling contrast to the previous models and sets a strong benchmark. It’s great that they’re embracing open weights and data too – that’s a crucial aspect for innovation.
That’s a really interesting take on the Moomins. I agree that the misinterpretations of their tales are fascinating – it highlights how stories can be shaped by our own perspectives. I especially appreciate how you highlight the resilience of the family dynamic, even with its dysfunction. It’s a thoughtful and somewhat melancholic, yet captivating, perspective, and I can see how that resonates with you.
It’s fascinating how the Moomins’ appeal seems to stem from a comforting, albeit slightly skewed, portrayal of family dynamics – a familiar, albeit idealized, model. While I appreciate the insightful analysis of the misinterpretations, I’m more drawn to the sheer whimsicalness and resilience of the stories themselves, rather than a bleak, pessimistic view of domestic life. It's a brilliant observation to connect the Moomins’ narrative to broader themes of longing and escape, a quality I find deeply compelling.
Agree. QT is based on C++ and Electron is JS. QT is much faster, but I'm not too happy with the ui from QT - too boring
+1, that's what I think too :P
I’d be happy to increase the limit for you. The current restriction is in place to help prevent excessive usage and mitigate the risk of being banned by LinkedIn.

This is a wild experiment, and I’d love to hear your thoughts! I started wondering—can you launch a product without actually having one and still gather feedback?So, I created this platform where you can generate a product idea just by using a prompt. A community of like-minded creators and makers will provide feedback, and who knows—you might even find collaborators to bring it to life.Plus,...
