Jevathon recap: TypeSafe's build tips + the top 5 hacks

Field notes from Jev's first community hackathon at CodeRabbit in SF. Build tips from TypeSafe's Allie Laabs & Alex Warren: Jev always answers, so a non-answer is a type error. Add a "not applicable" choice or ask a separate validity question. One state per request. Batch many questions about one state into a single call instead. Pure numbers usually mean arithmetic, which belongs in code. Jev fits judgment on language. Every response returns token usage, so an agent can budget first & reconcile after. Top hacks: Jevolution (wildlife ecosystem sim, 1st), Jev Shopping Network (tackiness dials, 2nd) Pixie Dust (browser flows to APIs, 3rd) plus First Minutes (stroke triage) & GitHub Roast.
