jaimefjorge··on Show HN: Codacy, delegate your programming tasks.
Very cool!! I will create a github codacy account right now. I'm also putting it on the site as a feature.

What an awesome idea. Thanks man.

Thank you for your encouragement!

The idea of the submit > payment > success is that it should be easy for devs to get started sending problems. In the background, however, you will be able to specify a number of requirements and details for each task. For instance, for every problem we try to detail a solution for it. For more complex tasks, some more discussing will be required.

However, given the small problems that we are getting and the awesome description capabilities of the people sending them, this is surprisingly cool.

However, we still have a long way to go. Just to be able to help people out with their work is already a very cool thing for us.

Thank you for your constructive opinion and the references.

What if you have some processing you need to make in a collection of your programming language? What if you have to make a script (in your favorite scripting language) to fetch and transform information? How about some good old SQL queries you need to develop? How about that algorithm you have to implement?

Our premise is that programmers often find themselves with these micro problems that can be often considered yak shaving.

Please don't shave yaks; use us :) (thank you for your interest)

Those types of problems are addressed by consulting firms with thousands of employees. We are trying to be do micro consulting for that itch you have but cannot scratch it in time :)

We are actually surprised by the amount of "puzzle" problems we are getting!

Thank you for your interest. I will be putting an example problem page and a testimonial section as soon as possible to address that.

You're right. Trust is huge. In order to gain trust from developers we are trying to make this personal. We are responding ourselves to every email sent and talking to everybody. We dont have automated responses also because of this. We also have put our faces for you to see it.

However, we understand that we have a long way to go. However, things are running! people are sending and getting their problems done. Hopefully today I will put a testimonial section in the page to address that.

Thank you for your feedback!

I guess you have a point there. We are trying out an idea we had and the feedback is surprisingly good. Turns out there is room for type of tasks!

Regarding that self contained task: well, please do!

jaimefjorge··on Show HN: Codacy, delegate your programming tasks.
Thank you! Please keep it mind; we want to hear from you (even if just to talk about programming).

We have experience in a number of different programming languages, different frameworks, etc.. The best approach is to send it first and we will try to find a way.

We are focusing on small problems that are affordable (starting from 10$) for you and that alleviate that work load you have.

jaimefjorge··on Show HN: Codacy, delegate your programming tasks.
Right now it isn't very scalable, you're right. However, given this positive feedback we are having, we will really consider taking people in to take care of this load.

Cool ideas. Seriously considering them. Thank you!

Thank you for your constructive criticism! Will work on it right now.

Very interesting. I guess this is always a risk when writing javascript. good mitigation though.

Fun fact: if you're in chrome, enter ctrl+shift+j. When javascript console enters you can play with it.

Try entering player.energy = 100000 :)
