If you want to apply for a job with the USDS specifically (or 18F semi-similarly), this sub-discussion seems helpful:

Not without way too much work (which would never satisfy everyone).

Most of the HN apps still work even if abandoned -- it's the UI framework demo websites (HN UX re-skin seems to be right after the TODO app demo) that have all disappeared. Also the audio ones, but there haven't been many of those.
>Keverw: I wonder how the USDS is different than the 18F?
>>Matt_Cutts: USDS and 18F serve in pretty different roles. USDS often comes in when there's a crisis or a high presidential priority, because the organization sits in the office of the President. 18F is located in the General Services Administration and is especially strong when looking at the medium- to long-term goals of an organization [continues]
Many HN clients are dead or abandoned; I'll circle back in a year.
Similar details on the best ways to use Google's would also be much appreciated!
I'm not familiar with any particular benefit of one group access option vs. any other. I hope all these digital libraries will start dealing with beneficiaries inheriting things as a first-class scenario soon!

I haven't Bluetooth'd yet, but plug it in and copy from its drive of single-page PDFs (with InkML?).

I don't know of any record of past entries nor if any participants used A.I.; it doesn't seem likely.
>chrisfosterelli: This is a neural network that takes an image and predicts very simple blocks (like BODY, TEXT, BTN-GREEN in the bootstrap example) and then uses a map to convert them to well-formed HTML
>jamesjyu: I've always wanted to do a contest with other frontend coders to see who could get closest to a complex layout—like the NYTimes—in one go. >>janneklouman: these types of contests exist!

You continue to pour your heart and soul into your projects, that is clear. Few are willing to be as transparent here; I appreciate learning from your perspective, the responses your approach elicits (even in myself), and the results of your approach.
Solidifying a concrete application for my own future reference: if in the future an opportunity arises for me to share something I've worked on with HN, I will don my flame-resistant suit, thank people for taking the time to interact publicly, and try to apply as much of the advice I prioritize as possible and helpful (with the understanding that I will have a hard time evaluating things objectively) while not disparaging what remains. I also hope to apply these tactics to unsolicited advice/critiques, as has already been clearly demonstrated as difficult for me!
Changing gears to actively pursue monetization is tough and I continue to wish you the best as you do so. My analogy is you've found your dream job and now want to get paid to do it! Thanks much for your time.
>no one has any sympathy whatsoever for
Didn't mean to fall into this category by ham-fistedly communicating what I personally consider a baby step in a positive direction.

Edit: In case it's not clear, my recommendation is to gain experience on something smaller/easier. Take the skill that you can use (or learn another one), find others using that skill to make money directly, and copy them step-by-step until it works for you. "Fail fast" doesn't mean give up on your dreams; use the experience gained for the harder sell. Insisting the only choice is between meaningful content and soul selling is a false dichotomy.
Lifestyle-funding, paying audiences must be carefully built/grown. (Ideally, this means completely disintermediating all third parties; in practice this means keeping a diverse group of them at a healthy distance as a necessary evil -- especially for initial exposure, aka advertising.) The whole point of this discussion is that allowing anyone in-between the content creator and their audience inevitably breaks down the relationship as the middlemen prioritize what makes them the most money.
[Edited a bunch to make it clear this is entirely on-topic; take care. At the absolute least: collect email addresses for a newsletter.]
A few alternative phrases: having a job, paying the bills, making ends meet, etc.
Few choose to be "really sick of being poor" while progressing towards their goals; success to you!
Looks like the mods noticed this time.
