Nerd sniped myself on this for 2 hours. But now I have reliable way of telling if a site is built with react or not.

$```js function isBuiltWithReact(){ return Array.from(document.querySelectorAll('body *')) .some(el => Object.keys(el) .some(el_keys => el_keys.startsWith('__reactFiber') || el_keys.startsWith('__reactProps')) ) } ```$

> Prevents claude mixing up instructions - examples - context. It’s all context buddy. Always been

Screenshot from https://docs.claude.com/en/docs/build-with-claude/prompt-engineering/use-xml-tags

When your prompts involve multiple components like context, instructions, and examples, XML tags can be a game-changer.
They help Claude parse your prompts more accurately, leading to higher-quality outputs.

XML tip: Use tags like < instructions> , <example>, and < formatting> to clearly separate different parts of your prompt. This prevents Claude from mixing up instructions with examples or context.

Reverse job boards are shutting down

…..as if to emphasize the funding
struggles... Talent.io, once Europe's leading tech recruitment platform, filed for bankruptcy and was acquired by Davidson Consulting via commercial court proceedings in March 2025 - just after celebrating its 10th anniversary.
Founded in 2015, Talent.io quickly rose to prominence, with 175 employees across 5 countries, matching up to 200 software engineers/month with jobs at its peak. It was part of a wave of platforms that disrupted traditional tech hiring.
However, cracks started showing in mid-2022, or as co-founder Jonathan Azoulay wrote: "Then we went through what some VCs call 'The God Damn Cycle' " The post-COVID tech slowdown and VC funding freeze hit the sector hard.
Revenue plunged 80% in 18 months. Al changed hiring priorities, reducing the need for traditional coding roles. Competitors like Hired.com, Triplebyte, Vettery, and Honeypot also shut down. LinkedIn's Al-enhanced dominance further marginalized niche recruitment platforms.

Elixir 1.18 can auto reload the iex after you edit sourcecode 😮

From elixir 1.18 changelog

For example, you can invoke IEx.configure(auto_reload: true) and IEx will automatically reload modules changed elsewhere, either by a separate terminal or your IDE.

I modeled my problem via deeply nested structs. Game -> list of Round -> list of Player -> Hand -> List of Cards To update a player's hand I've had to write lots of deeply cohesive methods in different modules.

$Elixir code ``` # Round.submit_turn/2 def submit_turn(round, score) do round |> current_turn_player() |> Player.increase_score(score) |> Player.remove_selected_cards() end # Player.remove_selected_cards/1 def remove_selected_cards(player) do %{player | hand: Hand.remove_selected_cards(player.hand)} end # Hand.remove_selected_cards/1 def remove_selected_cards(hand) do hand.cards |> Enum.reject(& &1.selected) |> then(&%{hand | cards: &1}) end ```$
