Do4oolu5··on Rediscovering the Small Web
That's ok, you're doing an awesome job, keep focusing on the good work :) It'll probably itch me again at some point.
Do4oolu5··on Rediscovering the Small Web
Beaker came to my mind immediately as well when reading this article :) It sounds so much like the perfect fit for the author.

The new beta has been quite depressing for me, as all my personal apps stopped working due to their complete rewrite of their API. I don't know if I'll ever be willing to start it all over again.

But for anyone who hasn't already played with it, I totally recommend it. It feels like the web we should have had.

Do4oolu5··on Trump threatens to 'close' down social media platforms
Is it really a technical problem, though?

If the majority of people _want_ to fight and is more willing to act in bad faith to hurt the opponent / win the argument rather than willing to correct their opinion by discovering facts, I don't think any technical solution could, nor should, try to correct that ("nor should", because it could quickly turn into some sort of oppression).

That being said, I commend you for looking for such solution, if only because masses' mood swings faster than technical solutions are implemented, and your features will be there when people are fed up with constant conflicts.

Do4oolu5··on Ask HN: Any job boards and age-friendly companies for older developers?
Sorry to hear that. It's indeed an unfair situation and nothing is wrong with you, it's the industry that has a problem.

Have you considered building your own company? That's quite a change of skills, but that's what I've seen most "older" developers do.
