I assume some of it will be adopted from the industry in the upcoming years. Now that regulators are pushing back on touch displays, the integration of tactile buttons with software will be the move forward you still need to have a physical mechanical button it is better in terms of muscle memory and cognitive load. I never understood the central display abominations that car manufactures keep pushing however the rotation and adjustment of the position make it a little more bearable, Audi[0] had figured this out like 20 years ago with the retracting screen in the dashboard, give the users the ability to hide the display it makes the whole interior cleaner and the driver can focus on the driving. I still don't understand the push with the piano black plastics it looks awful this material needs to go from the car interiors once and for all.

I think Ivy did its job great here despite some design decisions the vision and the direction is the goal here with this car the blending of software with mechanical parts.

It is somehow funny tho that it took a designer like Ivy to work on a car project to push for things like that, like who are the people working in the design departments at those companies, the cars that are releasing in the last 5-10 years in terms of interior design are to say at least uninspiring for their price tag.

Long time lurker finally took the leap to share something with the community.

From a long time I wanted to build something and I had this idea about a job board but not just a simple aggregator or just a job board. Basically I don't like any of the existing websites for jobs and most of the job boards are just aggregators that you constantly get redirected to third party links not the best experience. I also don't have the best experience with recruiters been ghosted, conversation looping in meaningless question and so on.

And the current job market is kind of disheartening non existing entry level jobs pretty brutal stuff.

The idea of the platform is to an extent to be fully autonomous in terms of you as user not browsing jobs but you automatically get matched with opportunities. Also companies looking for talent will have the same ability to view the people who are best matches. One of the main aspects is to basically to get a really good starter conversation between the company and you looking for new opportunity at leats that is how I see it.

What is different from other jobs boards is that you have a matching algorithm that finds the best candidates/opportunities based on the preferences from both sides it is weighted calculation between some different categories like salary preference, region, technologies used, work type, etc. Both sides can see a full breakdown and a gap analysis what is missing what is matching. The platform also has something like pipeline that tracks the stages of the conversation for example once both side match and start the conversation.

It is still work in progress some of the text and messages needs to be cleared visuals, colour palette but I decided to share it and maybe get some good feedback.

It is also quite empty basically I have zero users so without some listings it will be hard but I didn't want to scrape anything. BTW if any company wants to try this I can setup some free listing quotas the platform can be tried.

I used golang, htmx, plain css and as less as javascript as possible. I also used a lot of different llms to help me build it, it started as a learning project to help me learn golang but honestly I don't think I would manage to build everything like there is so much more to a web platform that is covered in books/courses/YouTube there is pretty big gap of what you need to learn to build something like that.

Anyway I will appreciate every feedback as brutal as it is.

The author starts with "we’re doom-scrolling brain-rot on the attention-farm, we’re getting slop from the feed." and continue with a web page that dooms scrolls emphasizing on big titles with pictures out of context, hard to read layout etc. There is a lot of valid criticism in the comments.

Of course uniqueness and beauty is probably subjective thing but I think about this often about the web. For example if you spend some time in websites like awwwards, dribbble, framer gallery you are going to end up with same design over and over.

I am not sure when exactly but probably in the early 00's graphic prints started to get into web, and sure it does seems cool, and different but I don't think the web should be a graphic print.

I am really struggling to find unique web pages, websites these days they are all the same, and in search of their "uniqueness" they often fail big with the user experience.

One website that is unique in my opinion very well taught is - https://usgraphics.com/ everything about it makes sense, the pages, the labels, colours, buttons at every step on the website you know why are you there you know purpose of everything it is hard to get lost, and not understand the purpose of the page. It looks very simple but the design is sophisticated.

I never seen that before, all the other learning sources that I have are just abandoned, often there will be something that brakes and you have to spend good amount of time to figure out how to fix it, which can just discourage you to go on.

Kudos to Alex that is how it should be done.

Its industry own fault that it is in the position that it is right now, and it will shift and change embrace it. I only wish I had your experience building software in professional environment.

You can literally build anything right now if you have the experience, I personally can't understand if the models are hallucinating hence the lack of experience writing and understanding code. However I always wanted to pivot into the industry but couldn't, hiring practices are brutal, internships are non-existent, junior roles are I think what senior used to be and the whole hr process is I don't know how to put it.

By using LLMs I can now build UIs, build functionality, iterate over design choices, learn about database design, etc. hopefully I will escape the tutorial hell and have my own working full stack web app soon.

Pivot to creating and then sale your product.
