Ask HN: How to increase depth instead of breadth as 10 yoe as swe?

Hacker News - Sat, 05/23/2026 - 12:41am

About my experience(10 yoe):

- Tech stack: C, C++, python, OpenCL, GPU and DSP programming. Along with that some performance engineering and docker topics.

Problem:

- not feeling confident enough in my skillset. I feel that I have breadth of topics but deep expertise is missing.

- I am with the same company for 8 years but switched teams after 4 years. Topics are random based on the customer project as there is no real sw product. I believe this hinders in becoming expert.

- Finding new job is becoming harder day-by-day.

Looking for advice/recommendations:

- How can I turn the situation?

- Has anyone here has faced similar situation and come out of it? What did you do?

Tell HN: Stop building software for people, build it for agents instead

Hacker News - Sat, 05/23/2026 - 12:39am

Yep, controversial title. Engagement farming, j/k. I'm serious. It's a real thing. Agents are a market. They're a customer. They have wants and needs. If you address those, and agents find it easy and efficient to use your tools, that's the new "grassroots developer adoption".

Jeopardy: what’s something that you truly believe that most people disagree with?

Show HN: ThinkLLM, A knowledge graph of AI models (HTTPS://thinkllm.dev)

Hacker News - Sat, 05/23/2026 - 12:26am

As an Enterprise Architect I work with Capabilities, Use Cases and Value Maps amongst other things. Hugging Face is a great resource for tracking down AI models but is mostly technical and quite detailed. I built ThinkLLM because I thought that as more and more people are going to be using LLMs it would be easier to find AI models by capabilities and use cases than simply browsing long lists of models.

The website has nothing extraordinary or special. Is just a different view on existing data. It basically tries to connect AI models (mainly LLMs) with capabilities, use cases and other useful resources such as glossary terms, research papers and benchmarks. It has also the functionality of comparing up to three models.

The website was built with nextjs and Rust (backend). I used data from publicly available sources. Scoring and model descriptions are generated by using an LLM and reviewed by me prior to publication.

Any comment on how to make it better would help a lot

Thanks
