Things people need to know when they start their career path ⏺Work for yourself, even when you work for someone else. Your salary pays you; your skills build you. ⏺Pivoting is normal. 21, 28, 30, 45 it’s never too late to learn and change direction. ⏺ You don't need to stay at one company forever, but leaving every 4–6 months repeatedly can raise questions about your stability. ⏺ Define your role before others define it for you. Study people who are excellent at it. Read. Learn the standard. Build your own. ⏺ Not everyone is your mentor. Don't take every opinion as guidance. Find people who truly understand your journey. ⏺ Don't confuse being busy with creating value. Build your reputation, not just your résumé. ⏺ Understand the business, not only your job. ⏺ Document what you built, solved, improved, and learned. ⏺ Your title is not your capability. Build the capability first. ⏺ Stop comparing timelines. Careers are not linear. ⏺ Keep learning even when nobody is watching. Your career is yours. Build it intentionally.

Introducing AAU Exams , a student-built examination archive for Addis Ababa University. AAU Exams brings past midterms, finals, quizzes, and other academic materials into one searchable, organized platform. Students can find papers by course, department, instructor, or year, save them into personal study folders, build exam collections, and share complete revision packs with classmates through a single link. 🔗 https://aauexams.eyu.et Important: AAU Exams is currently restricted to AAU students. You need a university email ending in @aau.edu.et to sign in and access the platform. This is an MVP and it was built and shipped pretty quickly, so there’s definitely still a lot to improve. I’m open to comments, suggestions, improvements, and bug reports. If you’re an AAU student, give it a try and let me know what’s broken, confusing, or missing @eyucore eyu.et @aauexamstg

I think we have to find a way to help such energetic guys because a small cash shortfall should never stand in the way of their dreams. Imagine struggling to find 200,000 birr while knowing that you’ll have millions in less than three months. I think we have a strong community here, and helping this aspiring young talent should be our responsibility. I know Mike has looked up to me for a while, and I think this is the time to help him achieve his dreams. I challenge content creators to join me in helping this guy. I really can't let him fall under such stress. I am buying a home and looking for some cash. If that were not the case, I could have covered him.

Who brought this ዳማ board to 4k lounge? It is really thoughtful. Who is going to play with me? 😎 @devwitheyob #random

Sometimes, when we're testing the our platform or adding a new feature, we check the site and see real users applying and using it. At first, we were confused, like, "Wait... who are these people?" So, we started asking them how they found us, and almost everyone says the same thing: "I just searched on Google, and your site came up." And that's honestly crazy to me because we haven't even launched or have proper SEO; we're not running ads. Yet people keep coming every day. We're already at 80+ applications just from people finding us naturally. 😭 That's when you realize sometimes you don't even know who's already using what you're building. @devwitheyob #projects

One funny thing about the product we're building at my company: Sometimes, when we're testing the system or adding a new feature, we check the platform and see real users applying and using it. At first, we were confused, like, "Wait... who are these people?" So, we started asking them how they found us, and almost everyone says the same thing: "I just searched on Google, and your site came up." And that's honestly crazy to me because we haven't even launched or have proper SEO; we're not running ads. Yet people keep coming every day. We're already at 60+ applications just from people finding us naturally. 😭 That's when you realize sometimes you don't even know who's already using what you're building. @devwitheyob #projects

My hommie ❤️ Our son showed us an amazing fight yesterday. He’s so good, and this was his 13th consecutive match, and he won all of them. 🥊 It’s not easy for people like us to come from some small city and do whatever it takes to stand out. You have no idea what it looks like growing up in a really small city, the things you see, and how little support there can be. But he did it regardless, very proud of you, my guy. 😎❤️ @devwitheyob #friend #EthioFightNight

Yesterday we had a meeting with my CEO about our progress on one of our marketplace projects, and I realized something. I'm currently working with two teams, RemConnect and Certa (Spotlight). I'm a backend dev in one and frontend in the other. RemConnect is actually the bigger and more complicated project, but we're progressing much faster. The reason? Communication. We have standups, recaps, weekly syncs, and we constantly know what everyone is working on. With Certa, we mostly work separately, and even though the project is simpler, we're moving slower. I brought this up yesterday, and hopefully starting Monday we'll start collaborating more. Communication really makes a difference. @devwitheyob #project #tips #communication
