What would you actually do with an ai agent that works over slack, email, or iMessage instead of a chat window? Skydive's letting the first 100 of our community find out with $100 in credits. www.torc.dev/community #TechCommunity #AI

Nobody walks up to a booth expecting the conversation to actually matter. Yet, this one did. Behind him, the sign says it plainly: a community helping you connect, grow, and land your next role. In front of him, someone actually doing that, one conversation at a time. #TechCommunity

Most job searches only move when you do. You stop for a weekend, the search stops with you. A profile that's already matched to open roles keeps working while you're in a meeting, asleep, or ignoring your inbox. platform.torc.dev/?utm_source=social&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=social #Tech

Career advice for introverts boils down to "just network more." Jennifer Marcou got tired of that answer and wrote a whole book on a better one. Lead with quiet confidence drops October 6, and it's for anyone who's been told to be more visible without being told how. Join us: luma.com/torcdo-m2to

Some of the best conversations in this community happen across time zones and languages. Someone in Atlanta answers a question at 9am, someone in Mexico City picks it up at noon, and by the time anyone in Sunnyvale wakes up, it's already solved. that's the whole point. #TechCommunity #DevCommunity

"I average 3 recruiters in my dms a day, sometimes 10." That's what happens after getting your resume and linkedin reviewed by us instead of guessing. This community works! #TechCommunity #DevCommunity

Nobody in this photo came to give a pitch. They came, sat down at a small table, and just started talking. Somewhere in this conversation is a referral that hasn't happened yet, or a job lead, or just a friend made in a city that felt a little less new by the end of the night. #TechCommunity

One conversation with @RenderATL 's founder turned into a long term relationship. One conversation about email tools turned into 30 days free of s/ashy for this whole community. Networking doesn't pay off once, it compounds. Keep showing up.you don't know which conversation will change everything.

We use s/ashy daily at this point, AI that writes replies in your voice, books meetings, and handles the follow up emails you keep forgetting to send. A new partnership means 30 days free for our community! Give it a try! www.slashy.com/offer/torc?r... #TechCommunity #Productivity

You'd think a room full of developers and job seekers would be packed with staffing companies. It's not. We're the only one's here. We'd rather be in the room where the actual people are, that's the whole point of how we approach community, and honestly, careers too. #Tech

Don't start your next side project with something ambitious. Start with something small enough to prove the pattern: can it read data, write data, and can you actually inspect what got written. #TechCommunity #DevCommunity

Remote developer roles dropped from a 2022 peak near 40% down to 25-30% today. sounds like a decline until you remember that's still almost double the pre-pandemic baseline. Remote didn't disappear, we think it matured.
