Re:Tell HN: Happy Easter
on Monday April 17, 2017 @01:43AM (#14129399)
It is also my first easter in 20 years away from my family. And people in the place where I am now don't celebrate so it was more difficult to do it, but I prepared the best easter basket I could and painted eggs with my girlfriend. It wasn't that bad, but I wish I was home for it.
Happy easter!

I don't think your age is an issue, but moving to SG could be as it will be harder to get a job in a position you don't have a lot of experience in. :/
I think it'd be better to gain some experience in your home country first, but I understand it might not be possible.
I think your best bet would be to look for a DevOps position which would provide you with more opportunities for coding while valuing your sysadmin skillset.
Re:Show HN: I made a surf app – whentosurf.co

I like it, it's very simple for me, especially since I don't know one thing about what is a good weather for surfing. :) Too bad I'm in Chiang Mai and there won't be good time. :/
Re:Ask HN: Remote workers. Do you use/need a portable monitor?
on Sunday January 01, 2017 @10:14AM (#13295972)
I found the switch back to a single monitor to be pretty painless once I became used to using shortcuts like CMD + ` for switching windows.
Two is definitely better, but for me it wasn't worth the hassle.
Re:Ask HN: Thinking of moving to Europe from USA

I'm referring to the US, though to be honest including Canada wouldn't change much. (Mexico is a whole different story)
I know it's not a common opinion, which is why I made clear that it's just my experience. I've been to 19 US states and 15 European countries and I found Arizona to be more different from Pennsylvania than Romania was compared to let's say Spain or Germany.

From my experience traveling Europe and America, Europe is much more homogeneous even if languages are different.

I like your website. Good idea with the screenshots, especially the one on the first screen, immediately got me interested in learning more about your product.
I will give it a try and see if it works for me better than Postman.

I built a betting platform for a niche esports game and had moderate success with it.
Mostly word of mouth, but it was a small dying tight-knit community desperate to attract knew players so it wasn't hard to get everyone interested.
EDIT: Working on a product for a community I was part of was definitely what helped me succeed. I worked on the problem I was familiar with, and I received a lot feedback and support from other people. It also helped me stay motivated. :)

Seems so.

In Google Chrome you can go to Developer Tools -> Network, and change No throttling to something you like.

Why do people keep adding projects without any description in English. I'm sure there are Chinese technology related forums.
