jpomykala··on Ask HN: What's a side project you built to make money that hasn't?
https://PlaceFlare.com I learnt a lot, I was building it for ~3 years, I spent on it about 500 usd :) now I’m working on https://SimpleLocalize.io and it’s way better. Currently MMR is not impressive but it’s getting better
jpomykala··on Ask HN: What are some interesting APIs (free or paid) available to anyone
I work as a dev for a company that provides services for hotels. For me, the best API which we discovered this year was a CRUD API for handling i18n keys in our system. We were using our in-house solution to keep translation keys in SQL together with translations. The support team was maintaining the translations, and we as a dev team were responsible for translation keys and own translation editor. This year my colleague found an app called SimpleLocalize which provides a simple CRUD API, and translation editor for a fairly good price (important factor due to COVID). We removed our submodule for translation management (which was buggy as hell) and switched totally to the simple CRUD. Feels good man. We cut 1/10 of code which was mainly used by our translation management.
jpomykala··on Teddit: a free and open-source Reddit front end focused on privacy
Somebody probably forgot to use “container” class before putting a “row” class. It mostly happens on <footer> at least in my case.
jpomykala··on After losing my savings as an indie hacker, I can't do it anymore. I quit.
True! Doing something without listening client needs it’s really worthless. You cannot throw the idea because somebody didn’t like the first version! I’m leading two successful SaaS services. One of them is SimpleLocalize.io At first it was just an app for maintaining the big json with translations. Now I’m providing really cool easy to use solution for managing translations in software project. I’m mainly focused on fronted frameworks like ReactJS and Vue. But people really loved Excel import/export option. Would you believe that? I started from providing a SaaS which was maintaining JSON, now I got CLI, CDN and more!
jpomykala··on Show HN: My Side Project Rocks – Share and discover side projects
I can submit my projects but who will be browsing them? How many people will actually go into your app to search something.
jpomykala··on The economics of vending machines
I work at telemetry system called VendingMetrics. We initially created this with my dad who got over 20 years experience in vending. I must to say, it’s much harder business than everyone thinks. Different machines, different settings, firmware, motherboards, external devices. Many things can go wrong but yeah if you are lucky and like old-tech it could be work for you. :)

I’m a software dev with +7y experience. My primary focus is backend with Java, but I also work with ReactJS. I like to play with data, SQL/Mongo query optimizations and data visualization on fronted. I like to be up to date with the newest technologies on the market but on the other hand I’m not bored with the mature apps with not too fancy stacks. Shy on the beginning, but I’m a rockstar on closer acquaintance. Checkout my side projects on my website and GitHub profile. https://github.com/jpomykala

jpomykala··on Show HN: Switch from Medium to your own blog
and Gatsby... now you need to maintain this. It’s much better to use something simple like Jekyll. You don’t need all these fancy stuff like GraphQl, SCSS, React etc. And Jekyll can be served directly from Github.

jpomykala··on In Defense of YAML
Why we even have something like yaml? We already got JSON, same key value format, but more reliable. I remember my first docker experience was ruined because of yaml and wrong formatting.

jpomykala··on Maybe You Don't Need Kubernetes
I only use Docker, because I'm too lazy to learn Kuberneres or Ansible. :)

It’s getting more funny if you look at his GitHub account.

I think it’s just a poor advertising. :)
