We are a fast growing German startup that produces custom personalized shirts built to order in Thailand and then shipped to our customers abroad. At every step in the process, customers can keep track of their shirt through their phone and have input into their order.

Due to the explosive growth of our business, we are looking to hire a full stack developer to join our team either in Bangkok or to work remotely.

While we don't have AI/ML or Cryptocurrency problems - it does not mean there is a lack of challenging and interesting topics for you to get your teeth sunk into. You will be helping us automate and make every aspect of our business more efficient.

What we are looking for

* We are currently migrating from a legacy PHP application to a brand new system based on * Laravel. Experience with PHP / Laravel is required. * We are using VueJS on the front end so you should have experience writing fluent Javascript * code using a modern JS framework like Vue/Angular/React. * We use Docker but we need some help introducing CI, automated deployments and we are missing some dev-ops experience... do you have strong Linux chops and experience with AWS and other cloud hosting providers? Can you help us make our development workflow better? * Lastly we are building out an agile team so we are looking for people who are not dogmatic about process but would like to help introduce best practices to a young and fresh team.

If you are looking to work remotely, we are open and welcoming of remote workers. As long as you can participate in planning sessions and are great at communicating, we have no problems where you are based. If you are living in Bangkok or would like to move to Thailand we can help with securing a visa and moving here.

To apply, please send me an introductory email to befeni.dev@gmail.com with some information about your background, where you are located, salary requirements and some way for me to assess your abilities (code samples, github, portfolio etc). I will then contact you to set up a Skype interview.

I'm looking for a co-founder. I started Slips.io as a way for gamers to make bets on Twitch/live streams using cryptocurrency. We came up with the idea in Jan 18 although we started working on the product in July. We had a full product by the end of the year and got funding in Jan 19. Betting is a hard market to break into and sadly my co-founder left in April. He handled design although I'm no slouch in that department either. I'm a programmer by trade but I'll do anything that needs to be done; copy writing, pitching, selling etc.

We've pivoted to an blockchain powered esports league although I have an idea of how to make the betting concept work as well.

My plans is to build out both products, launch, show traction and then return to the investors I've been building relationships with this year to get some seed funding.

I'm looking for someone who is interested in gaming and/or cryptocurrencies and either has specific skills in an area (business/tech/design/sales etc) or a generalist. Whatever your specific skils, I need you to have an immense work ethic.

If you are interested, my email is my profile. I've provided some links below for you to get a bit information about Slips. You can check out both https://slips.io and https://slips.gg to look at the two products.

This is the deck we used to raise funds in Nov 18: https://www.dropbox.com/s/928dgofikjif4xy/deck.pdf?dl=0

Here is the deck in April 19 when the need for a pivot became clear: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1Nl9WJ4rMeCn-hzVV7cla...

This is how the betting product can still make a ton of money without being a betting product: http://bit.ly/2LK6fsa

But if you think I'd bother registering another account just to reply to a random comment you're overestimating how much importance I place on dissenting views to my opinions.

The douche chill account is weird though, whoever it is registered simply to agree with me. I'm flattered I guess :)

* They have a well funded + experienced team

* They are currently featured on the front page of HN

* The number #1 USP of their site is "Real Time".

So after forcing me to login to check out what it actually is, I find that there's actually no real time content. It's dead.

My insight is clear even if it is drenched in negativity. These guys should be doing better, even if they had no resources whatsoever, for the next 24h, the CEO, his girlfriend, their dog, the grandmother and every other person they know should be logged in creating the illusion of users.

I think even Paul Graham/YC advocates this method, it's how Reddit got started - so beggars belief that these chaps don't think they need to go to those lengths :/

Anyway this is a site by actual guys that used to work at Reddit so you'd expect them to be pretty smart business orientated chaps right? Well they launch, pull a few strings and get to the the first page on HN ... then they immediately blunder by making you login to browse! Thankfully I was bored enough to do so and as expected it's just a barren 'seed user' populated scaled down version of reddit.

The biggest USP is real time and there's actually only me on there right now. Last story was posted 35 mins ago. I logged in not expecting my favorite reddits to be there, but for an exciting proof of concept. If I was in charge of this company, me and my entire team including the tea lady would be logged into at least 5 different accounts and we'd be creating a frenzy of real time activity so that AT LEAST we give people an glimpse of what we're trying to create.

Poorly executed - you'd really expect more from people with the resources to self finance a start up like this, the connections to drive users to the app and the experience of working for a top notch start up like Reddit for a number of years.

It's an Electron front end (Angular) which connects to a bunch of micro-services for messaging, fixture generation etc.

Sort of like a tycoon mixed with a simulation game.

It will give you the same functionality as Hacker News / Reddit.

I just want to figure out what the service is about and whether it's worth my time as soon as possible so I can bounce / explore further.

So IMO the screenshot would be much better and less expensive / difficult for you to produce!

If there were a few projects pre-populated, I'd probably have bookmarked and come back / submitted anything you might have missed.

Reading through your little biography, you don't have a lot of experience so you're unlikely to hit the ground running, I'd have worries about giving you a project...

On the other hand, you seem like you're a keen learner and the breadth of topics you've mentioned is positive. Keep a positive mental attitude and highlight some code examples so someone willing to take a punt can better assess your current abilities.

"I don't need work done for free - I am happy to employ someone to de-risk their time investment and I already have 2 investors who will fund us. However, I will self fund for as long as possible."

I think the ability to work on what you feel like and creative exploration is fine, but when there's a considerable gap between your last qualified success (or a lengthy period since you last actually completed something you were interested in), it should be a warning sign that you need to knuckle down a little.

They specialise in help for expats.

We will do the rest for you. Just look on our shinny loading indicators while we are deploying your code without any downtime!

I decided not to go ahead because I'm a perfectionist - I'd want to write a damn good book and the opportunity cost loss of earnings whilst I was writing the book didn't compare to the relative prestige of saying I was a "published" author.

For what it's worth; you'll probably get more traction/responses on a web2py community than on here.

Also why isn't there an option just to write without having to login (doesn't that add to the complexity of the app?)

- areas you are interested in

- technology / skills you possess

- your experience level

... otherwise I'm not sure what you're expecting people to conjure up! :)

There is this open source game server; the architecture overview page shows you the typical MMO architecture...

There's also a demo called LordOfPomelo; a fully functioning MMO written in Node.js:
