HN Jobs Evaluator
Monthly “Who’s Hiring” threads on HN are a mess to filter. Freeform text, dynamic ordering - keyword search misses half the relevant listings.
Good problem for an LLM. I built a Rust/egui app that fetches the thread, scores each listing against your resume and requirements via Gemini, ranks by fit.
The interesting design decision was the UI. Listings are long, evaluations are freeform, there are hundreds of them. CLI/TUI ruled out immediately - some descriptions wouldn’t fit a screen. A table with scrollable cells is quirky (scroll-in-scroll), but it’s the only layout that lets you skim fast without losing context. Everything else I tried either hid too much or required too many clicks to get anywhere.
BYOK, no backend. Binary available, source on GitHub:
