ravinizme··on Ask HN: How do you move up in professional status as a remote worker?
I understand. IMHO, it's a different situation than a remote worker that want to lead and take more responsibilities.

It is more similar to an hourly worker that want to move to a full time role.

I think you should do two things:

1. Share with your direct contact that you see your future in the company and want to have a full time remote position with the company. Being clear/communicative is very important.

2. Give them more value in the first 100 hours than they paid for. It will show a higher margin on value for cost for you. Something that will be harder to check later on when you're a full time employee. Try to understand what did they want to gain from the bank of 100 hours, and over achieve it.

ravinizme··on Ask HN: How do you move up in professional status as a remote worker?
As a person leading a remote first company.

I believe that it is first depends on the company and leadership culture.

If they look at you as an "outside" help, they will less trust you with important roles and responsibilities.

I have two suggestions:

1. From my experience even a week on site can make a huge difference. Is it a possibility for you to reach to the office?

2. Try to understand more about the bigger picture /context and do the extra step of bringing areas you feel strong vs other team members. It will show the leadership that you are able to lead.

ravinizme··on Show HN: Catj – A new way to display JSON files
Similar to python-jsonpipe (8 years ago).

https://github.com/zacharyvoase/jsonpipe

It includes 'jsonunpipe'.

So you could grep part of the JSON and still get a JSON back.

``` echo '{"a": 1, "b": 2}' |grep b| jsonpipe | jsonunpipe

#{""b": 2} ```

ravinizme··on TextQL: Execute SQL Against CSV or TSV
Seem very similar to q

q is out there for years, with a very large community.

q is a command line tool that allows direct execution of SQL-like queries on CSVs/TSVs (and any other tabular text files).

Write tests, Run the "compile" & "test" in the background. Than you can continue working on your tasks (even other tasks while they are working).

Even better, just have a CI that will run it not on your environment.
