Do any of you guys use new tab extensions?

Just curious — how many people here actually use a new tab extension in their browser?

I’ve been wondering whether they’re something people genuinely find useful or if most people just stick with the default new tab page.

If you use one, what extension are you using and what do you like about it? Would love to hear what everyone’s setup looks like.

Researching production log analysis & RCA — looking for engineer feedback

Researching production log analysis & RCA — looking for engineer feedback

Hi everyone,

I'm doing some early market research around production troubleshooting and log analysis and would really appreciate feedback from people who actually deal with production systems.

I'm exploring a tool where engineers could interact with their logs using natural language, investigate production incidents, correlate events across different systems, perform RCA, and generate custom analysis/visualizations from historical log data.

Before building this further, I want to understand the actual problems engineers face today — how they investigate incidents, where existing tools fall short, how much time RCA takes, and whether this is a problem worth solving.

I've made a short 2–3 minute anonymous survey:

https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfbJt7moEOhZR9Xr8HXbKu5Y0F2Ep0Yv5xPFQlohKbH63r6Dg/viewform?usp=publish-editor

If you work with SRE, DevOps, infrastructure, backend, Kubernetes, networking, observability, or production operations, your experience would be especially valuable.

I'm looking for honest feedback, including negative feedback. I'm trying to validate the problem, not just validate my idea.

Thanks!

Should I niche down into building Agentic AI systems for freelancing as a complete beginner?

Hi everyone,

I'm planning to start freelancing for the first time, and I have no prior freelancing experience. My background is in software development and AI, and recently I've been learning to build agentic AI systems.

I can build things like:

  • AI agents that automate business workflows
  • Multi-agent systems
  • AI assistants integrated with APIs, databases, and external tools
  • AI automation using LLMs, MCPs, and tool calling

I'm wondering if I should make Agentic AI development my niche instead of offering general software development or full-stack services.

My biggest concern is that since I'm completely new to freelancing, I don't know whether clients are willing to hire someone without freelance reviews or previous client work, even if I have the technical skills.

A few questions:

  • Is there enough demand for agentic AI freelancers right now?
  • Should I focus only on this niche or offer broader AI/full-stack services?
  • How difficult is it to land the first client with no freelancing experience?
  • What would you recommend I do to improve my chances of getting hired?

I'd really appreciate advice from people who freelance in AI or have experience hiring AI developers. Thanks in advance!
