Ask HN: I am not able to find a job. Should I switch stacks?

Hacker News - Thu, 07/09/2026 - 9:58am

I have 4 years of experience working with React, Next.js, and Node.js.

Other than that, I have also done some work with React Native and Three.js.

My last contract ended about 3 months ago, and I have been trying to find new work since then. I started with LinkedIn, then reached out through my network, HN threads, Wellfound, Reddit, and other platforms.

I also tried reaching out directly to startup founders building things in areas I like, such as worldbuilding and writing-related products. But many of them are also early-stage and do not seem to have much funding or hiring capacity right now.

At the moment, I can find around 6–8 jobs per week, but it is not moving forward. I am not based in the US, which is another hurdle.

I am open to learning new things. I have also done some work and courses around LLMs and RAG, so I would be open to working in that area too.

I’m wondering if I should continue with React/Next.js and keep applying, or if it makes sense to switch to another stack.

Has anyone been in a similar situation? What would you suggest? And how can I show experience in another stack?

Show HN: Personalized, narrated bedtime stories for kids

Hacker News - Thu, 07/09/2026 - 9:58am

Sometimes my son isn't in the mood for any of the bedtime books on his shelf and he asks me to make up a story, but my improv skills are sorely lacking. So I built Hushwillow to use for those nights. It creates personalized, narrated stories with the kid as the hero, weaves in their interests, steers clear of their sensitivities (and generally bad words/topics), and always comes to a calm landing, followed by some sleepy music. The listening experience is designed to be screen-free, so if you have a Yoto you can automatically push the audio there. If you have a Tonie or some other speaker, you can export the audio to load it up yourself.
