techsin101··on Ask HN: My boss doesn't think I'm doing good work, how to proceed?
i'd say getting rid of first impressions is really hard and maybe better off finding a new job in next 6 months
techsin101··on How I took my SaaS from idea to sold in 14 months
how can you be 'latest' and 'battle-tested' at the same time?
techsin101··on Ask HN: Why does a busy man build a shed?
To have an agency, this would be something I did because I wanted to. Most of us lack sufficient agency in our day to day job. We don't wanna be in standups, meetings, or most work activities that are at least to us pointless and maybe are.

yes, coal doesn't lead to a choice between obliterating northern hemisphere vs living with 30x radiation.

just wanted to remind that now even feds accept inflation isn't transitory.
techsin101··on Why Brahmins lead Western firms but rarely Indian ones
No I mean exactly what it means, caste system as in some people deserve to be rulers and we need someone to clean toilets. And it shall be determined via your caste, birth, over which you have no say.
techsin101··on Why Brahmins lead Western firms but rarely Indian ones
Now that I think about it, I remember seeing his family photos of village, so his parents must be from rural background.
techsin101··on Why Brahmins lead Western firms but rarely Indian ones
I was mind blown when I found my Indian friend fully supports caste system, that was like finding out your old and closest friend is KKK member and fully supports it.

techsin101··on The Burnout Society
Agile/Scrum <==== Cause of Burnout lol... How would you like to be put in a place everyday where you estimate a vague tasks and then be held responsible for your rough 30s estimate. Why can't we hire people?

techsin101··on US inflation jumps to 31-year high amid global supply chain crisis
history would beg to defer.. esp when fed said themselves: https://www.nytimes.com/2021/10/01/upshot/inflation-economy-...
techsin101··on US inflation jumps to 31-year high amid global supply chain crisis
It's not transitory. Prices have increased, unless there is extreme deflation, they aren't going down. Prices will continue to increase. At this rate, feds will have no control.
techsin101··on Use forums rather than Slack/Discord to support developer community
i think what's missing a functionality that would bring up previous conversations around the same topic. I.e. on stackoverflow you have strict no duplicate policy which forces people to add and update already existing topic. For that to happen user need to know question they have already exists, or a discussion. And then they can catch up, add scenarios and contribute to it. not sure how this could be added to slack tho.
techsin101··on Use forums rather than Slack/Discord to support developer community
better idea, an easier way to convert certain conversations into forum post.
techsin101··on Designing better file organization around tags, not hierarchies (2017)
it's easier for me to put folder "summer photos 2012" under photos than tag everything. In some cases it'd just bring garbage, i.e. script tag -> get ready of tsunami of script.js that got downloaded with html files i downloaded. I'm saying I can't think of a scenario where it'd be mostly helpful but that don't know whether there are other scenarios where there are such scenarios where tags are better.
techsin101··on Ask HN: What you up to? (Who doesn't want to be hired?)
I'm a Frontend dev and would be interested in this. How do you know there is a demand, we can chat over email: myemailum14 gmail
techsin101··on Ask HN: What you up to? (Who doesn't want to be hired?)
i actually understood the insertion sort this way
techsin101··on Ask HN: Who wants to be hired? (November 2021)

  Location: NYC
  Remote: Y
  Willing to relocate: N
  Technologies: Frontend React
  Résumé/CV: email me
  Email: myemailum 14 gmail
Looking for Part time Frontend dev position in <20 company. Very open to negotiating a salary, doing part time masters. I've 8 years of Fullstack exp.
techsin101··on Ask HN: Another job board? Need feedback on the idea
I was thinking about potential customer segments that can be tested...

1. Startups (5-50)

2. Regular offices (excel, salesforce,...)

3. Bootcamps/Universities (kind of virtual tutoring. hired by institutions, not students, they wouldn't pay enough)

4. General Open Market of Everything Expert (would be hard to get started...)

5. Scientist looking for coding help (probly wont have money like students...)

techsin101··on Ask HN: Another job board? Need feedback on the idea
yea that makes sense. This way it'd be less stress for both sides. If I'm really good at CSS, I'd want to be hired for THAT. Not just as frontend dev and asked to debug some typescript error, sure I could do that in time, but not in an hour, unlikely. Too stressful. But If someone else was passionate about Typescript they could sign up as TS expert.
techsin101··on Ask HN: Another job board? Need feedback on the idea
yea that would be great to bounce ideas off each other and figure out new things... we could talk over discord.

I was thinking of manually filtering people and then having a point system. Also really hone on skills.. i.e. you can't be just a frontend developer, you have to be react expert, a sub-specialist. So you can select up to 3 stacks. i.e You are an expert in postgresql, bash scripting, aws RDS. Or Typescript and Reactjs, Or D3js and CSS.

Like any given developer would know many things, we want only the thing you're MOST expert in.

We could allow even smaller chunks of times for stuff like webpack, npm, composer, rack... errors.

There are two sides right, experts and users. I think it'd be best to target b2b companies. As they can only pay and will pay to attract true experts. Otherwise, why would I pay out of pocket until I'm really desperate. Companies would pay to keep productivity up.

I was thinking of targeting startups who don't have a budget to hire a top devs in many skills and their dev is wearing many hats. Usually they are struggling in space of Devops, DB admin, maze of AWS, or some weird library like mapping library that usual fullstack dev normally won't be good at.

techsin101··on Ask HN: Another job board? Need feedback on the idea
this is almost what I had in my mind. Gonna brainstorm tons of things. How long have you had this website up, what marketing have you done?
techsin101··on Ask HN: Another job board? Need feedback on the idea
True, I can also see it expanding into non-tech. Like Excel, Salesforce, Google Analytics Experts... or Video Editing / Adobe Premiere experts..
techsin101··on Updated WHO global air quality guidelines
How does it compare to older guidelines
techsin101··on Pen: A programming language for scalable development
it's not but it's essentially the same practically speaking -- you get type A|B|C you write code to interact with it in just one way. Either by casting, or generics. weakly typed language do that for you, but they are looked down on.
