oh boy, this is really useful! I wonder why whatsapp folks haven't made this native, something like add a number to the app itself instead of relying solely on your phone contacts

I've been thinking about this market lately, have you done something similar?

Hey, is it restful APIs that you write or more like crud apps with rendered views?

Hey, fellow job seekers!

I've written a small chrome extension to help you filter the thread, check out: http://imgur.com/a/CzNSa.

You can download it straight from the repo: https://github.com/viniciusCamargo/hn-chrome-extension/blob/...

This is also a turn down point for me, I wish there was better and easier JSON helpers.

Hey, HN! Would you recommend me a practical introduction to data modelling with Postres?

Hey! I haven't posted to the Chrome Store yet because I was the only one using it so I didn't want to pay their fee. But I'll submit there next week.

Re:Node.js is forked to Ayo.js (pronounced like “IO”) on Wednesday August 23, 2017 @12:44PM (#15082985)
I've faced this exact scenario a few months back when I asked some questions on Preact's Gitter. Pathetic. English is not even my first language, I swear I didn't know I'd be offending someone by saying "hey guys" :/
Hey! Thanks! Here's the extension: https://github.com/viniciusCamargo/hn-chrome-extension/blob/...

You have to enable the developer mode and drag the file to the extension page, you can find instructions here: https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/getstarted#unpacked

I've also provided the source code, so let me know if you have any issues to run it ;)

Show HN: A tiny Chrome Extension to search through “Who is Hiring?”

Hey, folks!I'm writing this small Chrome Extension to help me find jobs I'd be interested in the monthly HN's "Who is Hiring?" thread. I've used React to render the UI that just loads a stripped down version of the posts and look into them by the tags I've chosen. Here's a demo: http://imgur.com/a/CzNSa.I haven't submitted to the Chrome Web Store yet because of their $5 fee. :P But let me know...

I still find it difficult to install and use Go.
Hey! Where could I find this post?
Re:I tried Haskell for 5 years on Tuesday May 09, 2017 @03:30PM (#14303126)
That's really nice. Sounds like a very experienced team too.
Do you take the classes at night and work full time during the day? That sounds tough considering you also have kids. Congratulations!
May I ask which degree was that?
Re:I tried Haskell for 5 years on Thursday May 04, 2017 @02:47PM (#14267563)
React, HapiJS, RethinkDB, Node and Haskell. That might be the coolest stack ever. Do you have any FOSS project on Github?

Re:Rust 1.17 on Thursday April 27, 2017 @04:34PM (#14214460)
Man, I really didn't expect all those nice and thoughtful responses. Thank you so much for everyone who replied it. It was really kind of you. Now I have a much better idea on what Rust was designed for and its strenghts. I've learnt so much here. Also thanks for the articles and videos you shared, I'll definitely take a look at them all.

I'm glad I didn't let the fear of been bashed to keep me away of asking. I'm not sure if I'll ever need to use Rust but it surely has the coolest people around it. :) Thank you guys!

Re:Rust 1.17 on Thursday April 27, 2017 @03:24PM (#14214018)
Hey, folks! I have never used Rust but all the buzz around it made me curious, so I may ask you to forgive my ignorance on the matter. I have a few honest questions about it and I'm pretty sure these questions were answered before, so feel free to point me to this resources, I'd appreciate very much.

First of all what's the point of Rust? OK, it's a systems language, but what does that even mean? You can write a system in any language right? Python is a scripting language and lots of people use it everyday to write systems. What problems is it trying to solve? Also how does it compare to Go? (I haven't used either one or another). It seems to me that both Go and Rust are mainly used by C/C++ folks that want a new shiny language that somehow resemble the syntax or structure or funcionality of the former and at the same time add some modern features (I might be totally wrong by presuming this).

From the perspective of other languages I know a little bit such as Ruby, Python or JS its syntax seems really bloated to me with all those specials symbols. Do you feel more productive writing software in it than in let's say JS? Please keep in mind that I really don't know Rust (nor I've never tried a statically-typed language) and I don't mean to offend anyone.

Thank you guys!

Re:Ask HN: Best business advice for software developers on Wednesday April 19, 2017 @07:49PM (#14152819)
Let's say you have half of this spare time to work on your side project, that is 3 hours. Excluding weekends, how much time would it take to build a business out of your 15-hours-per-week side project?
Re:Ask HN: Best business advice for software developers on Wednesday April 19, 2017 @05:15PM (#14151847)
Have you started a side project and after 3 months you were making 10k per month?
NP. Glad I could help. :)
Re:Ask HN: Best business advice for software developers on Wednesday April 19, 2017 @04:06PM (#14151273)
Maybe you're right. Unfortunately. Thanks for the heads up anyway.
