Measured over 6 original posts from a 30-day window, last computed on September 2, 2026.
Engagement
Early reading. We have captured 6 original posts for this account, below the 8 we require before treating a median as settled. The numbers above describe what we have seen so far, not a finished profile of the account.
A typical post picks up 260 interactions against 360K followers, an engagement rate of 0.072%. Posts are seen about 16K times each, and 1.67% of those impressions turn into an interaction. That is about 4.34% of the follower count, which is the gap between an audience on paper and an audience in a timeline. Posting runs at about 0.27 posts a day over the last 30 days, though only 27% of days saw any activity at all. Most posts go out around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is the busiest day of the week. Of the 6 posts sampled, 50% carry an image or video and 50% link out. The account's strongest tracked post pulled 1.1K interactions, about 4.3x its own typical post. Only 6 original posts have been captured so far, fewer than the 8 posts we want behind a median before treating it as settled. Read the figures above as an early measurement of this account, not as a finished profile of it.

Posting timing
This account posts most often around 09:00 UTC, and Monday is its busiest day of the week. The bars below are the catalog-wide pattern, with this account's own busiest slot marked. They do not show how this account performs at each hour: we keep one aggregate per account, not one per hour, so that measurement does not exist in our data.

Formats this account uses
Its own posting mix on the left, and what each of those formats does across every account we track on the right. Only formats where the effect clears our publish test appear here, so an empty row is a format we could not measure rather than one that does nothing.
| Format | This account | Catalog effect | 95% interval | Accounts behind it |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Image or video | 50% of posts | +111% | +108% to +115% | 34K |
| Outbound link | 50% of posts | -41% | -42% to -40% | 32K |
| Typical length | - | +15% | +14% to +16% | 32K |
- 50% of this account's sampled posts carry an image or video. Across the catalog, posts with an image or video run 111% above the same accounts' other posts.
- 50% of its posts carry a link off X. Across the catalog, posts with an outbound link run 41% below the same accounts' other posts, so a large share of this account's output sits in the weakest bucket we measure.
- Its average post runs 842 characters, which falls in the over 280 characters band. Across the catalog, posts over 280 characters run 15% above the same accounts' other posts.
These are catalog-wide differences applied to this account's own posting mix, not a measurement of how each format performs for this account specifically. We keep one median per account, not one per format per account, so the second thing is not something this data can tell you.

I know some people are sick of all the AI content everywhere. Tutorials are not dead at TM. Working hard on a 2026 React Native crash course for youtube. Start recording Monday 😀 Quick Screengrab/Preview: https://t.co/XCFcJ8KRl6

AI generated code is causing some serious problems. Stats show that AI usage has come with a 1.7x increase in bugs. 32% of senior devs have shipped AI generated code, and research shows 45% of it contains security flaws. The problem isn’t AI. It’s over trusting it and shipping oversized PRs with less oversight. Check out the latest video on this topic where @dennisivy11 shares how you can still use AI and secure your code 👇

Finally finished my homelab server rack 😊 video coming soon Inside: - Sysracks enclosed cabinet - TP-Link Omada 2.5G / 10G core switch - 2U Intel Core Ultra 9 Docker/staging server - GMKTec EVO-X2 AI/automation box (Hermes box) - Dell PowerEdge lab server (Proxmox) - QNAP 8-bay rack NAS with 8x8TB RAID 6 - Synology NAS during migration - Dual APC UPS units - AC Infinity rack cooling - Sonos + smart-home gear tucked in cleanly This runs my internal dev/staging services, local DNS, reverse proxy, storage, backups, automation, and AI agent stack. Proxmox & virtualization learning server. Completely unnecessary. Extremely satisfying. #homelab #serverrack #selfhosted #homeserver #networking

When using AI to code, be careful about constantly switching between projects. It may not feel exhausting in the moment, but it can burn you out fast. The goal shouldn't be to create as much as possible. It should be to build useful things and actually finish them.

I seriously cannot stand these people anymore. I don't know what happened to a good chunk of the tech community. I used to connect with these people because they loved technology like I do. They wanted to learn, build, experiment, and talk about what was possible. Over the past couple of years, though, I've watched a huge portion of that curiosity turn into pure skepticism, pessimism, and hostility. There are two ridiculous extremes in the AI debate. On one end, you have people claiming that non-developers can vibe code anything and that anyone can instantly become a developer. On the other, you have people who treat AI like politics and completely lose their minds over anything associated with it. Lately, I see far more of the latter, and honestly, they are even more irrational and insufferable than the vibe coders. I also know that many of them use AI themselves. They don't actually care about having an honest discussion. AI is just their latest excuse to shit on everyone and everything while pretending they are taking some principled stand. I used to follow politics, but the audiences around political content, on both the left and the right, became so toxic and irrational that I eventually stopped caring about any of it. I appreciate level-headed people who can discuss complicated topics without turning everything into a tribal war. That is what I once believed the tech community was. It does not feel that way anymore, and it is incredibly demotivating and depressing. I am not saying this describes most people, but it describes a large and increasingly loud group. If you find yourself making stupid comments like this, take a step back and ask what you are actually contributing. Criticism is healthy. Skepticism is necessary. Blind hostility, personal attacks, and performative outrage are not. You do not have to love AI. You do not have to use it. You can question the hype, the ethics, the business models, and the effect it may have on our industry. But if you cannot discuss any of that without attacking people, assuming the worst, or turning every conversation into a moral crusade, then you are not protecting the tech community. You are helping destroy the very curiosity and openness that made it worth being part of in the first place. Sorry for the long post

I’m creating a lot of cool shit lately, but it feels like I’m becoming more of a project manager than a developer 😐

My take has changed from “vibe coding will never work” to “vibe coding may work with future models.” But only if you understand software development and architecture. That if will never change for me.

AI is amazing, and getting into things like OpenClaw has opened my eyes to how much you can automate. But I’m starting to feel the downside too. At a certain point, it starts feeling like I’m outsourcing my own thinking. It’s both cool and scary.
