FreshQuest is an app to help shoppers find fresh, locally-grown produce. It was created in one day at Hack Upstate, a hackathon for Central New York-area developers. I did the complete branding and UI design.

If you're a dev team and want to save $30,000 a year with one click, do this: Cancel your daily standup! 15 minutes × 5 days × 5 devs = 6+ hours a week. That’s 300+ hours a year per team! And for what? A Zoom call where everyone says “no blockers”, has their camera off, and/or gives a status update. Here’s what we’ve done instead at Joggr: - Async standups in Slack - Blockers shared in real time, not 23 hours later - Trust the team to communicate when they need help We made this change recently and honestly, it’s been a godsend.

There’s a quiet trend happening - Rust engineers leaving comfortable FAANG roles for small, high-ownership teams. Not because they want ping-pong tables or startup chaos - but because they want meaning. They want to build things where their fingerprints actually show up in the product. Every week I hear the same line: “I just miss building.” That’s why early-stage Rust hiring is taking off. The best engineers want to feel the impact of their work again. If you were choosing between stability and impact, which way would you lean right now? 🦀

I make more now as an average software engineer than I ever did as a tech lead. Don’t chase flashy job titles—chase growth and improving your skills. Not all companies are the same. A tech lead at one place might not hold a candle to a mid-level developer at another. Don’t settle.

Job titles lie. Real skills don't. I've interviewed "Senior Developers" who couldn't debug basic issues and "Junior Developers" who architected systems better than most leads. The marketplace is full of inflated titles and mismatched expectations. What matters isn't the label it's what someone can actually build, solve, and deliver. Focus on evidence: code samples, problem-solving approach, and how they handle real challenges. Everything else is just noise. #HiringReality #TechSkills #RealTalk

Most developers don’t struggle with learning new tech. They struggle with showing up every single day. When I first touched React, I spent 10 hours straight. Next day? Zero. Next week? Nothing. It wasn’t React’s fault. It wasn’t the docs or YouTube. It was my head. Here’s what I learned after shipping multiple real-world apps: 1. Motivation is flaky ↳ It comes and goes without warning. → Relying on it is risky. → You’ll find 100 reasons to quit. → “Not feeling it” will be your excuse. 2. Discipline is skill ↳ Treat it like push-ups or pull-ups. → Start small—like 20 minutes daily. → Show up even when tired. → Build the muscle slowly. 3. Goals won’t save you ↳ Systems will. → Create checkpoints each week. → Remove guesswork from your time. → Make progress trackable. 4. Learning is a boring loop ↳ You repeat, fail, debug, repeat. → That’s normal. → That’s how you grow. → Even good devs get stuck. 5. Talent is loud. Discipline is louder. → You don’t need to be the smartest. → You just need to keep showing up. → That’s 90% more than most. You don’t need more tech skills today. You need better focus on showing up. Discipline beats motivation—every single time. P.S. What’s harder for you right now—starting or sticking with it?
