Hello, My name is Nasir Sharaf, I am currently looking for a software developer engineer role, or any adjacent role such as MLOps, Data Engineering, Data Science, etc. I have a master's in computer science and roughly 3 years of experience as a developer. Prior to that I was an energy engineer for 3 years and I also have a bachelors in mechanical engineering.

Basically, I've noticed a bunch of social media protocols like ATProtocol, ActivityPub and Nostr are coming out and I think while having these protocols is a good idea, one thing limiting adoption is lack of differentiated social media sites on these protocols. Basically everyone keeps building twitter on a new protocol without offering anything novel. One bottleneck, I thought, is that there isn't a set of utilities to help build a new social network easily so everyone defaults to building twitter as an MVP. I wanted to make an engine, kind of like a game engine, but to make a custom social media for any particular protocol. Hypothetically this should make it so that development for these kinds of projects go way faster. Basically, like a very opinionated django rest framework. Hopefully developers will build more interesting, novel sites and increase adoption for these protocols

Basically you get untitled articles and have to bet whether they are from far left, left, center, right or far right sources. The idea was to maek readers aware of their biases. I wrote my findings here: https://nassharaf.github.io/ideasthete/projects/Rashomon.htm...

You can demo the site here: https://www.rashomonnews.com

I recently made a blog post about this site (found here: https://nassharaf.github.io/ideasthete/projects/Rashomon.htm... ) but I figured this was a good submission to have separately since this demo site is something anyone can play with and seems to fit the "Show HN" guidelines better than the blog post does. Please let me know what you think!

I've written up a blog post about a website I made a few years ago called Rashomon. Rashomon was a "newsbetting" site where you could wager fake money on the political bias of a news article. I discussed my motivations and experience making this site and wrote up my amateur sociologist findings here. Let me know what you think!

Also, as an artist, I love the domain name for your sites :)

This is one of my first write ups for a project I've pursued that I call "the solarstack." It's basically a combinations of solar cells and some optical elements. I figured "I made a personal site, I might as well use it" so I made this blog entry. Please let me know what you think!

Looking for a role that offers fully remote ideally or hybrid in a location I can adopt to well. Current role is as a contractor for a Big Three automotive company where I worked on embedded systems software development. Previously worked for a start up and as a research assistant during my masters program.
