Show HN: QuickMarketFit – For engineers who hate marketing but need users

I have been a software engineer for more than ten years. Like most engineers I loved building things and avoided everything that looked like marketing or sales. I used to roll my eyes at marketers. Code felt clean, sales felt messy.When I finally went solo I discovered what many of us only realize too late. Building is the easy part. Getting people to care is the hard part. Without users, even the best project is just another forgotten repo on GitHub.What worries me is how few engineers even thi

Show HN: Atlas – Open-source network discovery and visualization tool

Hi HN,I built Atlas , an open-source tool for network discovery, visualization, and monitoring.

Seems like a clear case for deleting my account but job opportunities, occasional lost colleague contact and j

Ask HN: What Comes After AI?

I don't want to start a flamewar, but some are suggesting we've already reached peak AI and are headed for the "trough of dis-illusionment." Since our industry seems to run on hype, what's the next technology to get on the hype-train? Seems I shouldn't start an AI startup right now since half the industry pundits say that ship has sailed.Ideally it would be something that would sell NVidia chips (I don't want my NVDA shares losing their value) and suck down l
