karn09··on Greenmask: PostgreSQL Dump and Obfuscation Tool
Built something like this a few years ago for work, but it has become a monstrosity that is difficult to enhance and maintain. We've been debating whether to build a more extensible v2 since I haven't seen anything that fits our needs on the market. I'm excited to check this out!
karn09··on Show HN: Algorithmic trading for everyone
Since your site is down - and if this is open source, can you share a link to the source code?
karn09··on Ask HN:I've been forced to move to the new gmail,is it really slow for you too?
It takes almost a minute to completely load in the latest Firefox Developer edition. Still very slow when done. In Chrome it works decently well, but still slower than Inbox and old Gmail.

I almost feel like I'm being forced to use Chrome if I wanted to see the new design.

karn09··on Tell HN: 17 years on the same game
I spent many many hours logged into Realms. A few years ago I had a sudden attack of nostalgic and created a new character, but just wasn't able to get back into it.
karn09··on Flatiron School settles for operating without license, employment/salary claims
Fullstack Academy has a fee for hiring grads, but only if the company attended hiring day and the offer was a result of that attendance.
karn09··on Slate.js: Customizeable rich text library inspired by Draft.js
On Android there is a high chance your text won't appear, or the keyboard will disappear. Trying to delete text will cause the cursor to jump around if you hold delete down instead of one character at a time. Very frustrating.
karn09··on 42 comes to Silicon Valley: free, non profit coding university
Yea, with you on that. 32 and back in school. There are a few folks that are late 30s, early 40s. Sure majority are early to mid twenties, but that hasn't stopped anyone from working together.

Why the 18-30 age limit? Seems a bit... ageist?
karn09··on Proposed JavaScript Standard Style
One (more) standard to rule them all.
karn09··on Bluebird in the wild: Advanced promise-based workflows
Good read. I've been using bluebird in my own code lately and love it.
karn09··on Ask HN: How do detect a crappy boss / toxic environment when interviewing?
I requested two weeks off - first vacation in 3 years, 6 months in advanced. Leading up to this, the guilt trip was laid on thick. Luckily I was leaving the country, so just said I had no internet and phone during this time. Yes, USA.
karn09··on Lessons from a Google App Engine SRE on how to serve over 100B requests per day
I'd imagine so. Due to SRE becoming such a buzz-word title with many companies doing this so differently, it has increased the difficulty of hiring.
karn09··on Fix Windows 10
I wish the steps were this straightforward for my android phone.
karn09··on Show HN: Recalll – Search Engine for programmers and developers
Pretty neat idea! I think it would be really cool to declare my default languages though, so it only returns results from what I specified.
karn09··on Ask HN: Is anyone using a web IDE for most of their development work?
I've used Cloud9, Nitrous, and currently messing around with Codenvy, and a few others that were very lacking. My favorite so far is Cloud9, which has a ton of useful features. Nitrous is second but lacking features such as code beautify which is annoying.
