corrius··on Maximizing the Potential of LLMs: A Guide to Prompt Engineering
I don't understand so many upvotes, I would understand it a year ago or so but this post is more useless than a linkedin post.
corrius··on Twilio is laying off 17% of workforce
IMHO all these companies are flooded with account managers, sales, customer success, BDR, when they could just let customers choose their own plans, upgrade freely, etc, instead of "schedule a call with our team"
corrius··on Ask HN: What is the best password manager for business use?
NO Lastpass, we use it at my company and it is terrible, the UX is a nightmare.
corrius··on Thank HN: Five months ago, I was feeling like a loser, now I am opposite
I don't normally comment on HN but reading all the negative vibes made me want to comment.

Glad to hear you are doing great! I had to make the decision between a high paying job and a high rewarding job and choosing the second one has been a huge improvement in my life.

corrius··on Apache Hop 2.0
+1 to AWS Step Functions, in my last three companies I have built fairly complicated workflows with them and once you get used to them they are very powerful, reliable and cheap. I just wish a little bit more monitoring on top of them but nothing you can not build by yourself.
corrius··on Manfred Awesomic CV: Open source machine and human compatible CV standard
1.- If you are really interested in the job you spend a few minutes preparing the CV and applying for it. 2.- If the company doesn't support a standard format is probably the company's problem not yours.

"Finally, all this friction discourages some candidates to apply to some positions." Doesn't this just validate that the benefit is for recruiting firms rather than applicants?

This will only benefit recruiting firms in order to automate processes such as the one behind this project, I don't see how this would be beneficial for anyone else.
corrius··on Treating SQL like code
It locks you down to that ORM. If you are the owner of the ORM such as Google with Looker that is fine, otherwise it doesn't sounds like a good idea to me
corrius··on Ask HN: What's your startup's BI tool/setup?
I forgot to mention on the posts what are my thoughts so far:

- License products such as Tableau, Qlikview or PowerBI are too big for us at the moment, both in size, pricing, complexity, etc.

- Scheduled exports to Excel/csv don't solve our use-case as it needs our interaction every time there is a new export or change in the queries.

- Accepting requests directly don't scale well either.

- Currently we are considering Metabase, Superset and Redash. Leaning towards Metabase based on better UI, runs well in AWS and connects to SQL databases, Mongo, Redshift and Clickhouse (Not that we use all of them but we may in the future)

corrius··on Getting noticed as a remote engineer

corrius··on Shazam-like technology used to identify bars illegally streaming soccer games
LaLiga already does this, they display a "B" on the corner and every few minutes a code that can be checked against the subscription, but this doesn't seem to be enough...
corrius··on Michael Seibel, CEO of YC, is doing an AMA
No really banned, but any of his articles will magically be removed from the front page.

Why do you keep banning DHH from the hacker news?
corrius··on Ask HN: Where can I look for a non-profit organization to help?
Thanks Jeff,

I'll look at the Post, and some others paper from Chicago, where I live.
