zeno00··on Ask HN: Anyone work in Honolulu?
You should do it, being by the ocean is great. You'll find tons of things you love.

I'm glad there's a community in existence!

I'm primarily a web developer, been making websites since I was a kid and transitioned into that professionally years ago. I feel most comfortable and prefer to work in Python but I've worked with a bunch of languages.

The most recent thing I worked on that I thought was cool was taking all of the voting data + voter history from a state for the past 15ish years, cleaning it up, creating a database out of it then making it accessible with a webapp, allowing different queries to be run through the front end, generating stats, etc.

I'm going to toss you an email.

Hah, I definitely didn't add 'flagged' to the submission. Looks like it disappeared off the front page too which sucks. I emailed the mods(?) so maybe my poor post will receive clemency.

Aloha!

I'm actually on Maui too for about 2 years. It is indeed dead here for tech work. There is some stuff in the Maui Tech Park.. Boeing, defense stuff. And I've see some job listings occasionally for work in Wailuku but it's mostly IT work.

There's tons of money floating around here, I feel like there's an opportunity somewhere to start something cool but it has eluded me so far. Good luck!
