Hey HN community!

I've developed a free tool that uses AI to help you quickly generate engaging and personalized Twitter bios. It's simple to use and doesn’t require any sign-up. I built it to make the bio creation process effortless, especially for anyone looking to refresh their Twitter presence.

Give it a try and let me know what you think!

Hey HN,

I have been trying to find a new job for the past year and I have been struggling a great deal. I have managed to get a handful of interviews, but none of them resulted in an offer. In a couple cases the only feedback I received was "you seem great, but we need something different right now".

I don't have unreasonable salary expectations, but I expect the salary to cover my living expenses at a minimum. I don't live extravagantly, I'm in a 450sqft apartment in a bad neighbourhood, but I do live in Manhattan FWIW, so rents aren't cheap.

I am quite accomplished at 38 y/o: I have worked at several top tech companies, have done a variety of roles, founded my own companies (which didn't work out in the end), and I have multiple GitHub projects with over 1,000 stars and thousands of open source users. I have also published 2 books with great reviews, but the royalties only amount to a couple hundred dollars per quarter.

I can't for the life of me figure out what I'm doing wrong. I have tried a variety of different strategies with interviews, faking it extra hard with positivity and excitement for whichever company it is, and yet I only receive rejections.

I have applied to well-over 500 jobs/companies, many of which I applied to multiple times, and the vast majority of the time I receive an auto-rejection or no response. I've mostly exhausted my personal network at this point, so begging for people to refer me to jobs doesn't help and it stinks of desperation.

While I've made decent money in tech over the past 25 years of writing software professionally, I've also had my share of ups and downs, and the downs were very costly. My savings are dwindling, while my expenses keep rising. So I'd be much happier if I could get some income and health insurance.

I would appreciate any insights if anyone has them. Or perhaps others can vent and share their experiences as well.
