    Got laid off. Got sick of ghost jobs. Built something2025 · app.ghostjobs.io · ▲20

    Hello everyone, I got laid off last year and during the job hunt, I kept running into ghost jobs, these listings that never lead anywhere. Super frustrating. After some point, I started tracking company behavior across job boards. It snowballed into a little web app where you can actually see how companies are hiring — or pretending to. It's free, early stage, UI is a bit rough, but here’s what some info it shows per company: -Job boards they post on -ATS system they use -Median salary by role -Post frequency + how old the listings are -Skills and degree requirements -Track all existing…

    Layoffbase – the place where you can get a new tech job after layoff2022 · layoffbase.com · ▲11

    I knew that layoffs in tech were coming. When it started, I've created Layoffbase to collect people without a job and help them get a new one. Now, I try to manually connect them with companies. What do you think about it? How can I improve this?

    Layoffstoday – Open database tracking for 10k CompaniesJan 2026 · layoffstoday.io · ▲5

    Hi HN, I built Layoffstoday, an open platform that tracks tech layoffs across ~6,500 companies. What it does: Aggregates layoff events from public news sources Normalizes data by company, date, industry, and affected headcount Shows historical patterns instead of isolated headlines Why I built it: During job transitions, I noticed people had to jump across news articles, spreadsheets, and social posts just to answer simple questions like “Has this company laid people off before?” or “Is this happening across the industry?” This is an attempt to make that information structured, searchable,…

    Safely share and compare your Startup Engineer Salary2014 · ▲11

    Hi HN, This is a mixture between a Show and Ask HN. I really appreciate your time and thoughts on this. My name is Alexis and I would like to show you something I've been working on on the technical side: It's called Huddle Metrics. Huddle Metrics is basically a safe place for you to anonymously share and compare sensitive data with your community. Sort of like a very controlled collaborative spreadsheet, really. Or a survey. But hopefully better. Think engineering salary and your equity in the company. Information that you track yourself but that's too taboo to share. If a pool of the data…

    Hey HN, Henry here from Cactus. We open-sourced Needle, a 26M parameter function-calling (tool use) model. It runs at 6000 tok/s prefill and 1200 tok/s decode on consumer devices. We were always frustrated by the little effort made towards building agentic models that run on budget phones, so we conducted investigations that led to an observation: agentic experiences are built upon tool calling, and massive models are overkill for it. Tool calling is fundamentally retrieval-and-assembly (match query to tool name, extract argument values, emit JSON), not reasoning. Cross-attention…
